Veto or not to Veto, that is the question

Greetings citizens, and welcome to another installment in this blog :)

Previously on Celebrity Big Brother:


  • Shannon won the first Head of Household for this season
  • Big Brother then revealed a twist involving gift bags, one of which contained a Recast power to which the power holder could take over as Head of Household
  • Much strategising followed, in which Chuck said he would not open his bag
  • Ross suggested a backup plan to which he and the ladies would open their bags should Chuck go against his word
  • Chuck did indeed break his word and opened his gift bag, to which Ross's plan was executed so whoever's coloured chip was drawn would open their bag
  • Keshia was the lucky houseguest and she had the Recast power, and she nominated Chuck and James


This installment see the Veto competition played out, and will it save Chuck, James or neither....Answers coming up on this latest installment of BB from the Batcave

And we pick up where we left off after the last show, with Keshia adjourning the nomination ceremony and James is straight to the Diary Room and saying he is pissed and won't forgive and forget being on the block

He informs Chuck one of them has to win the Veto, to which Chuck says if that happens then the other has to petition

Keshia says James is the main target, and is then seen talking to Chuck...Chuck plants the idea that Shannon would have come up with two different names.

Omarosa saying the women are in total control right now and they plan to take out the men one by one and they (the men) should be very worried

Shannon tells James it isn't as bad as he thinks, as most are mad at Chuck for going for his gift bag and tells James to keep his cool. All of this is a ploy as revealed by Shannon, so he doesn't try as hard in the Veto and then gets taken out

Mark thinks Chuck has gone into 'beast mode' when in fact Chuck is snoozing away in the gym, and then tells James that if he (Mark) won Veto he would use it on James as he is a valued member of the men's alliance

Omarosa goes to speak to Keshia about the girls alliance, and pitches about a new girl alliance called BGM (Black Girls Magic)

Veto competition time, and 6 houseguests can participate

The 2 nominees, and others chosen are Shannon, Ariadna and Mark...Omarosa is chosen as the host of the competition and Big Brother will inform when the competition starts

Keshia starts sniffing around to check out possible scenarios for whoever wins the Veto, and Mark is first up and he said he would save James if he won

Chuck next up, and he admits Mark wouldn't save him and Keshia informs him he has to play really hard in this Veto competition

Next up, one of the many filler segments as in telling them news headlines while they have been sequestered, in the form of a quiz in True or False, nothing on the line and it's just for fun

"With 8 nominations, Jay Z wins big at this years Grammys" - False
"Blake Griffin traded from Griffins to Lakers in blockbuster deal" - False
"Kylie Jenner named daughter Selfie Star" - False
"For the second time in 3 weeks, the US government shut down" - True
"Tom Brady leads game driving victory over Eagles at the Superbowl" - False

Time to don those robes as it's time for the Veto competition

Welcome to the Four Sneezens Spa, and to enjoy the healing power of the Veto houseguests have to spell the longest word possible using the letters within the noses, and they may only bring back one letter at a time. Once they have made their chosen word, they can then press the button on their podium to lock their answer in. The winner with the longest word wins Power of Veto. 10 minutes only to make their words, and the lowest rated houseguests will get a booby prize.

And we're off.....

Lots of scurrying about in the mud before the buzzers are all pushed, and now let's see what our houseguests have put as words

Ariadna - WAING - She said she was supposed to spell WARNING
Mark - SOME - Pretty basic, but probably won't win
Keshia - PRIMED - Keshia takes the lead
Shannon - RESPONSIBILITIES - Might be a BB spelling record, one for the BB boffins there
James - FAMIL - Supposed to spell FAMILY but lost the Y
Chuck - SPANNED - Good but obviously not enough to beat Shannon

Shannon becomes the first Veto holder for this season, now will she use it.....Stay tuned

"Who would have believed an alliance formed on night 1 would begin to unravel" questions Julie as we head back to the house for the Veto aftermath

Marissa comments how difficult that competition was to watch for the ones not participating, and then Keshia says she has to talk to Shannon about possibly taking Chuck off the block, and then putting Mark on the block in his place and still getting rid of James, as Mark with his whole "I'm going to save James" spiel needs to feel a little something, and Chuck is a little more malleable to work with

Ross doesn't agree with this, as it could lead to Chuck and James being more mad at Shannon

Shannon walks into the room and the above idea is pitched, but nobody seems to agree and they all talk over each other resulting in someone saying for everyone to take a breath

Omarosa pipes in with "I love you and all, but this feels like it's all me me me I I I, and there's an alliance here"

Ross comments in the Diary Room that that is the reality Omarosa coming out, then Omarosa is in the Diary Room thinking this is not good for HER long term strategy and insinuates Shannon is making this all about herself

Back in the bedroom, Keshia says may the best woman win, and then tears all round as Shannon starts crying and Ross queries why the women are crying

Brandi gets frustrated at the women treating Ross like 'garbage' and calls it disrespectful and is shocked

Ross now thinks that he is just a number in the girls alliance, and will be disposed of once the girls alliance are the last ones standing

James and Arianda are summoned to the Diary Room, as per the Veto competition rules as they were the lowest rated housemates, and will get the Big Brotox treatment as in wearing baby costumes for the next 48 hours and have to crawl on their hands and knees as well. When the baby noise gets piped in at any time, they have to suck on their provided bottles

Much laughter ensues from the other houseguests, and it is genuinely funny :)

Keshia confers with Omarosa about James and Mark, and thinks they may be greater threats...Ross warns Shannon to be careful with her Veto decision. Her decision could ultimately come back and bite her with the new alliances forming

Shannon says Ross brings up a good point about why is Keshia fighting to keep Chuck in

Keshia then reiterates that the alliance decided unanimously to take Chuck off the block, and put Mark in his place but apparently Shannon has had a change of heart

Shannon, in the Diary Room, queries the alliance saying Keisha and Omarosa are jumping down her throat wanting the veto to be used, and Ross telling her not to and not backing her up

Brandi says she is not scared of Omarosa as the others seem to be, and believes Omarosa has bulldozed her way through the other members of the fracturing alliance

Omarosa explains a tactic called "Shock and Awe"

It goes something like: "You have to shock them, catch them off guard, and force them to make a dumb move"

Shannon is very confused now and cries thinking whatever she does it will be a wrong move, and says she wants to go home to Cape Town

Veto meeting is upon us, and here comes the decision from Shannon

Shannon is explaining the rules of the veto ceremony, but BB interrupts and plays the baby noise into the house to much amusement. James has to do his Veto plea on his hands and knees as per a stipulation of his punishment in regards to the Veto comp

After Chucks plea, Shannon decides NOT to use the Veto and James and Chuck stay on the block and one will face eviction

Shannon hopes she has made the right decision and Keshia thinks Shannon doesn't want to get the blood on her hands

Talk in the bedroom turns to Omarosa, and Shannon and Ross say they don't trust her...Ross says Keshia and Omarosa are out to get him, and when she walked through the door he said not to trust her

Shannon gathers what is left of the alliance and says to switch the votes over to Chuck as Keshia is trying to make a side deal with him.so he will put two of the alliance up and not Omarosa. Shannon then suggests she could make a deal with James to not put any of the alliance up

Eviction time, either James or Chuck will leave the house first

James and Chuck will give closing speeches to why they should stay, and now they are done....Keshia will have a deciding vote if there is a tie, and the nominees can't vote

And off we go for the voting

Brandi evicts Chuck
Ariadna evicts Chuck
Omarosa evicts James
Ross evicts Chuck
Metta evicts Chuck
Marissa evicts Chuck
Shannon evicts Chuck
Mark evicts Chuck

It's official, Chuck is evicted 7 votes to 1 and Omarosa has a face like thunder

Hugs all round as Chuck leaves the house to talk to Julie

He says he was expecting that kind of result and some last minute switching contributed to his downfall. He thinks he should have said something about opening the gift bag. He is informed he is on the jury but will not be sequestered, which basically means he can go home and watch with the rest of us. He thinks Shannon or James have a good shot of winning

Chuck's final thought is that he had a good time

Next Head of Household is this coming Sunday along with Nominations, Monday is the Veto competition and Eviction

And that is the first eviction in the bag, it was a long slog but we all got there in the end

Going to be interesting to see what Omarosa does to the house if she wins HoH, should be very exciting

Hope this is a satisfactory read for everyone who reads it and it is action stations again the day after the new HoH and who is on the block have been revealed....

Thanks for reading, and remember someone is always watching :)

Until next time, citizens
