Saturday Feed Updates – Veto Day BB25
Good afternoon, everyone! It’s veto day in the Big Brother house, and it’s an important one for Kirsten as she is likely on the chopping block should she lose. Of course, anything can happen, but I just have a hard time seeing a way she’ll survive this week if she’s on the block come Thursday – barring the rumored twist that there won’t be an eviction this week and instead they’ll bring in ANOTHER houseguest.
Yes, that’s a real rumor floating around, and really it can have some legs to it due to the length of the season. As it stands right now, if they evict someone every single Thursday before finale week, there will be 4 people heading into that final week which is pretty normal when you factor in there will almost certainly be a double eviction at some point.
This means that the show – for its 25th season – would just have a regular eviction schedule throughout the entire long season. Not happening. However, if they have a jury battle-back, that means two double eviction weeks which is possible, but I still think not enough for this season.
Anyway, real alliances are beginning to form in the house and they are:
Bye Bye Bitches – Cirie, Meme (Mecole), Izzy, Felicia, and Bowie with Red, Hisam, and Jared as extras
The Handful – Reilly, Cameron, Blue, Jag, and Matt with Cory, America, and Jared as extras
Stupid names, but whatever.
While the Handful seems stronger on paper, the BBB’s have a significant advantage of Jared being a mole. Until the entire house figures out that Cirie and Jared are mother and son, Cirie is in a super strong position. This is a situation where the Handful need to consistently win comps or they’ll be outmaneuvered every step of the way.
With that out of the way, let’s get to some updates:
They beat me to it today. Izzy,Felicia and Cirie hanging out in the kitchen memorizing the comps so far
The Handful:
– Reilly, Jag, Matt, Blue, Cameron
Bye Bye Bitches:
– Cirie, Izzy, Felicia, Bowie, Meme
Lean Handful (Extended Family):
– America, Cory, Jared
Lean Bye Bye Bitches:
– Hisam, Red, Jared, Kirsten
JARED is in both, LUKE in neither
Evidently Izzy woke up with Cirie to talk game while she (Cirie) showered around 5
Same girl – this is Pepper (debut on BBJunkies)
She’s grown up a BB feeder
Meme is up too
They want their votes to look like swing votes. They don’t want their alliance to vote together to make their alliance obvious. They talk about Izzy and Hisam keeping them close
Jared tells Izzy the other side didn’t bring in Luke, Red,Hisam, Meme (not quite right)
Izzy shares she wants to be in final 5 with him and his mom. Izzy said Red pitched an alliance with the girls this morning (Cirie, Izzy, Felicia, Bowie, Meme)
Jared- I don’t trust Corey as far as I can throw him
Cirie says some people just talk to her more than others
Red says core group is Red, Hisam, Izzy Cirie
Cirie recaps how she told her straight
BB has told them not to prop open the bedroom doors
Reilly chose- Hisam
And they think that’s a good thing
Bowie tells the group that Cirie told Kirsten honestly why she was on the block. They all agree that Kirsten is the target.
She is manifesting this goes easy peasy today. (She doesn’t want Kirsten to win veto)
They comfort her especially after learning the bullying came from teachers
Cory shares he is more concerned for the next HOH than the veto
Bowie- who told you this?
Cirie- a little birdy
Jared- I’m brought in (to Cameron’s alliance)
Cameron- I know you’re probably appreciative of how things shook out this week. We have some things cooking, and we decided you’re the name we wanted to talk with. (WOW… so considerate)
Jared- that’s a solid group. I would be all the way in.
Cameron- I wanted to be the one to come talk to you
Cameron- no 8 is the family. We don’t need to bring more in. We just need to make sure we maintain good relationships (who needs math)
Cirie- I know Cory is telling them to get rid of me. Even the way he watches me. Like, “Why are you looking at me that way you little snot?”
Izzy shares that Reilly has thrown Luke’s name out to Cirie
Hisam adds that he thinks Jared is lying about the information he has. He says his goal will be to win the veto.
So, don’t trust Jared. He’s a terrible liar. It is becoming really clear there are two groups.
Hisam is tracking who gets called to the diary room
Someone needs to tell her to step back and breathe
Cameron- he seemed pretty sharp. Like he already knew what I was talking about
Jag- I feel solid about the whole squad
Hello!
My name is Shari and I will be doing updates for Steve during the evenings to late night. I have been watching Big Brother from the start and am a huge fan! I am really enjoying the cast this season and look forward to all the twists and turns coming up for the 25th Anniversary Season. I look forward to updating you on the latest and greatest and I am happy to be here!
Reilly is worried because Blue mentioned the other house guests associate her with the “boys alliance” Kirsten has been spreading. She is worried Hisam won’t trust her because of this and will do something unplanned with the veto.
Supposedly she could’ve won this comp but didn’t to keep her threat level down.
She is talking to Izzy as if there is no alliance formed and making Izzy feel as though she is helping create something. Izzy sees through it
Jared thinks that Hisam doesn’t trust him.
Blue says he has never brought him up (he has). She tells him she has been working on Hisam and Izzy to build her ‘buble’ for the main 8 (called Family Style)
Izzy wants assurance the plan is still Kirsten.
Reilly said she didn’t throw it, but she just didn’t want Felicia or Kirsten to win.
(I would think is so sus for someone not on the block running right up to the HOH.)
Cirie is about 98% convinced that Reilly is trying to backdoor her
Izzy told Cirie that Reilly said she threw the veto comp (not exactly what she said. she just ‘didn’t want certain people to win’)
Now, Cirie thinks people are acting funny because she is the target.
Jared tries to tell her that is not what he is seeing.
Jared fills in Cirie that Jag likes Reilly and Matt will probably be jealous.
He said he feels so much more comfortable with their (Bye Bye Bitches) side of the house. He stresses the importance of winning comps because the other side of the house has most of the athletic people
She says she thinks Reilly was trying to backdoor her. Cirie thinks Reilly was throwing the competition. Izzy told Cirie that Reilly was throwing it, but Jared doesn’t believe it. He thinks Reilly is feeding her BS.
I think Cirie is starting to learn that Survivor paranoia ain’t got SHIT on Big Brother paranoia.
Cirie mentions he does have to consider she may be wront-but she doesn’t think so
He says the other side (Family Style) is young and dumb. He feels like he is playing with snakes.
Jag heard Izzy whisper something to Cirie in the kitchen. Cirie agreed “to what she saw.”
Jag agrees she (Izzy) may be closer with others
whatever this is
PS- I was today years old when I realized Cory does not have an “e” in his name… oops
Jared tells Cory to relax and just share his thoughts. Cory responds by saying he is a “real person” and likes to analyze and think through his conversations.
Cire tells Meme, Felicia, and Hisam if the veto is used- Its to backdoor her.
(Feeds cut)
Reilly says she wants to act with integrity. She says that everyone has said her name (Kirsten’s) and more people would be mad at her if she didn’t go with the house. Reilly says Kirsten started taking game too early.
She says she was ‘just so overwhelmed’ being the HOH.
Reilly says ‘every single person’ told her Kirsten was going too hard.
Jared tells Izzy she doesn’t need to remind him there are in a final 3 (Cirie, Izzy, Jared)
Side note- Izzy does not know personal space. She is always INCHES away from people when she speaks or touching them. Big pet peeve. Really wish she would take if from a 12 to at least a 7
They have been targeting Kirsten this whole time because she is running around talking. Who is going to sit Izzy and Cirie down and tell them to chill??
He says he wants to work with people who represent the same communities. (Feeds cut)
Blue and Reilly have also recounted a similar conversation with Jag concerning working with those in the LGBTQIA+ community.
Izzy- 100%
Cirie- The gloves are off.
Reilly is giving a pep talk. Her advice is to have conversation and speak her heart. It doesn’t matter what America (us) thinks of her.
Reilly responds by reminding her the game isn’t over.
Kirsten said there are double standards.They are all talking game (true) but she is the only one being called out for it. She says Red and Luke were making similar game comments, but when she does it- its too much.
Cirie comes in next.
Reilly tells Cirie the target hasn’t changed
Felicia joins them in the HOH room.
She replies: Jag, Cory, Blue, Jared
Cirie goes on to explain she decompresses in her room. She isn’t trying to be anti-social.
Felicia tells Reilly she needs to keep in mind the male to female ratio. She says in the end- the guys are guys.
Reilly says she doesn’t care about gender. She wants to want to work with people she can trust.
DeVonne, Tiffany, Rachel Reily, Tyler, Ian were lzzy’s top favorite players…
Cameron said the James was the “creator of the game”… maybe he should be backdoored
While in his personal space
She is talking with Red now and apologizing for trying to pitch to early.
Red says she just came out playing the game too hard
She mentions she feels comfortable with Cirie and Felicia and thinks they would work well together.
The convo ends with ‘lets do it’
He says he is off track because he can’t get a good workout in, he feels like he is getting a cold, etc
Cirie goes to give him a hug.
Red said a good strategy is just to be us. Kirsten says she really wants to be here and have fun and be happy.
Kirsten is trying to find a friend in Red and building her case for people to keep her in the house. They ended their talk with a hug and Red saying, “you have a friend in me” which took me right to the Toy Story song…now I will not be able to get that song out of my head!
Cory agrees they are both on the end of the Family alliance.
Jared tells Cory to spend more time with Hisam, but they both are truly aligned with the bye bye Bs.
Jared emphasizes they cannot let The Family know they are playing both sides.
He says he doesn’t believe he’s still in school or 21
(be patient with me, I am learning the ropes on how to post pics with a short synopsis on one post instead of separate ones) (for now, they will be separate)
8:49pm-In the bathroom, Cameron and Reilly are speaking about playing the game. He thinks that it is too early to be getting into the game too deep. He tells Reilly to chill out a bit, that they are doing their job and that is all that needs to be done. Cameron and Reilly move up into the HOH room and continue talking about who is in the best position. Reilly feels like she has a big target on her back. Cameron does not think it is time to make a big game move and that you must have the numbers to make a big move. He is giving Reilly a pep talk and talking like this is a war and they are building up the army and will go to battle.
8:58pm Have Not Room– Cory and Jared are talking about Cirie (haha) and how she is a great player and they really need to watch out for her. (I wonder what Jared is thinking while he says this). They are talking about if either one of them wins HOH next week. They will need to pick a side at that point. Essentially, Jared is playing both sides of the house. Again, houseguests are starting out at full speed with playing the game and they need to slow it downnnnnn.
9:10pm-Hisam, Cirie, Felicia and Izzy talking about Cory and how there is no way that he is pre-law, that he is done with law school. Hisam called him a young savant. He is going to outsmart everyone and win the game. Hisam is telling them he is not going to use veto, move forward and Kirsten leaves and that someone in this group including Bowie, Red and Jared need to win HOH next week. Now, Hisam has bounced to starting to prepare for the counting comp where they count things in the rooms. (too early to do this but ok) Zing!
9:18pm-Jared and Kirsten in the storage room talking about how Kirsten should be playing the game and talking to people to convince them to keep her. Jared is saying that Kirsten wears her emotions on her sleeve. Jared is asking what he can do for her. He also said she needs to drop the ego and be vulnerable. Kirsten is saying she learned her lesson about letting things go to her head (toooo late). He said do not talk like you are really going home, talk like you are going to stay in the house.
10:12pm-Red, Izzy, Felicia, Cirie and Bowie. Red is showing off his blue trunks. Izzy is kissing up to Cirie and telling her to work her magic. Keeps fixing Cirie’s necklace. Izzy is quick in getting Cirie some tanks to sleep in, she couldn’t pull those out fast enough. Bowie says she only wears black. She is wearing an all leather black hat at the moment…(she is the female Johnny Cash) Red needs to go outside ASAP to get some sun. They better open the backyard soon; I think they all need some fresh air. Reilly is in the HOH room still stressing and keeps going down the same path on strategies. Relax Reilly, listen to Cameron, it is too early! They are trying on their summer gear and head scarves and headbands. Izzy has changed again. (is this a fashion show or BB?) Izzy is speaking of squatty potty and asking for it when and if she gets HOH. (TMI) If you do not know what a squatty potty is, amazon it, lol.
I am getting tired even though it is only Saturday night at 10:42. Just some general chatting going on in the house. Reilly is heading to bed. Goodnight all!
Reminder, I am heading out on a flight tomorrow morning. I should have wifi on the plane so I can knock out a new post, but I have no idea about the wifi situation in the woods (or cell reception, rather). Worst case, I’ll hop in the car and drive to a coffee shop to make posts daily, but that will be it for me until Thursday. I won’t be able to respond to many emails or make any updates to the site, but at least I was able to fix a bunch of small things the last few days.
