Big Brother Craze

…eagerly waiting. I know I promised interviews, but as I sort of expected, those that did reply and say they would, have neglected to answer any of the questions or my emails since. To be honest, I’m not really surprised with this crew, that it was so difficult to get commitments out of them - we watched them avoid making a stand for three months, after all!

So what are the houseguests up to? Best way to guess and check is by taking a peek at their myspace accounts:

Adam
Alex
Allison
Amanda
Chelsia
Jacob-FB
James
Jen
Joshuah
Natalie
Neil
Parker
Ryan
Sharon
Sheila

or search them out on EBAY:

BB9 Adam on Ebay
BB9 Alex on Ebay
BB9 Amanda on Ebay
BB9 Joshuah on eBay
BB9 Matty on eBay
BB9 Natalie on eBay
BB9 Sharon on EBay
BB9 Sheila on Ebay

where houseguests are unloading a whole bunch of things - from Natalie’s fingernail polish portraits, to slop, to keys, to hats and clothing and phone calls and oh my! There’s something for everyone!

The Dish Chicks - who I adore! - have added a new (MALE!) member to their crew - he’s The Real Deal! We’re all excited to watch TRD dish next season! His videos are some of the best, and his photo sessions with the houseguests are absolutely fantastic - be sure to check him out!

I’ll still work on getting those interviews for you - if they show up, I’ll post them ASAP. And no, I’m not gonna tell you which one’s stood me up. That wouldn’t be any fun! In the meantime, we’ll have to simply look forward to BB10 - which is coming sooner then we think! The finalists have been chosen, and in a few short weeks we’ll have a brand new crop of houseguests to watch and snark about on a regular basis! Catch up on your sleep and sunshine now, kids!

July 13th can’t come fast enough!

They’ve been chosen! Robin Cass, casting director, posted on her myspace blog the following:

Big Brother 10

All finalists for BB 10 have been notified.

To all of the people who applied this year - THANK YOU!

We had a huge number of applicants this season, which made our decisions even more difficult. Thank you so much for all your efforts and as I always say, don’t give up hope….sometimes it takes a few tries before making it to finals.

Big Brother fans are truly THE BEST!
Robyn

WHOO! We’re that much closer to a brand new season!

Yup, me too! Here’s the interviews for you!

Enjoy!

Or, rather, Dick talking to the houseguests, and giving his opinions, as Janelle stood by and occasionally got a question in. But they’re amusing none the less.

Did you see it? Today’s was James’ interview on Real Player, feed four. It was a whole bunch of the Crazy James we love! From what he’s doing now, what he plans to do in the near future, to what bars are best in what states, to Chelsia’s Dad’s death threats because of his porn past - he touched on it all. As soon as someone has it on you tube, I’ll post that here as well!

This interview proved what I’d believed about him from the very beginning - he’s just a great guy. A quote “I don’t want to be a reality douchebag. I just want to meet my fans, hug them, spread the love.” He’s got a good head on his shoulders, and good strong ideals he stands by with conviction. He’s real, and comfortable in his skin. I want my kids to have that kind of strength - though I’d be happy if they’d skip the porn part, of course. *g*

He was even cool with ‘haters’ - someone said “I think your sick, what do you say about that?” And James replied that it was awesome, he’s glad he’s out there thinking and making his own decisions. But he’s not changing just because he made one person sick. He’s not changing for anyone.

He also had advice for future houseguests: Be real, be straight up, be honest with how you portray yourself. You’ll have to lie in the game though, realize that, but be real. Call people out when they need it. I liked doing that - though I didn’t like it when they did it to me. (laugh)

There are a lot of things that he has coming up, including some video blogging and such. He’ll keep his fans up to date on his myspace, so check that out. Be aware that right now he has over 7000 friend requests in waiting, plus messages, so he’ll get to it as soon as he can.

There’s a lot of good stuff in the interview - and I’ll get it posted as soon as it is available, so check back soon!

They’re here! After the cut:

The premiere of What Happens In Vegas was last night - and pictures are popping up all over of Ryan and Sharon as they enjoyed their luxury competition win! They clean up pretty nice, all told - though I do question the brightness of those blue shoes… then again, I’m no fashionista, so what would I know? (grin)

They are also seen a couple of times in the Access Hollywood interviews at the red carpet - you can find the video here, and I did a couple screen caps and added red arrows to make it easier to see them for you! I know, I spoil ya, but that’s ok, I like to!

I am officially jealous. Harumph.

The Big Brother 9 wrap party was last night, and pictures and videos are trickling in as I speak… er, type! I know a lot of us wish they’d show the wrap party on the feeds, but there’s good reasons for that not happening - it’s not only the wrap for the houseguests, but for production as well. Thus, everyone is off duty - no one to film it! So we rely on the kindness of those lucky folks who attend and shoot video and take pictures for all of us to enjoy!

Here’s some random footage:

Everyone singing happy birthday to Adam:

And the all-important GAG REEL!!

There are a ton of pictures to be found here, thanks to lovinthewill from Jokers.

More as they become available!
