This has been quite the eventful week at the Big Brother house! Daniele and Amber won a trip to New York to play CBS's new "Power of 10" game. Eric and Jessica bonded over Eric's "Woobie" (which is a stuffed animal, for all of those whose mind is in the gutter!). Zach continues to take up mindless space, Jameka struggles with the anxiety of being nominated, and after numerous fights with Dick, Jen loses control!

To catch you all up to speed, Dick and Jen have been at odds since day 1! They fight, argue, torment, scream, pour iced-tea on, and make each other miserable! Things came to a head yesterday when Jen decided to act out against one of her many peeves of Evel: his cigarettes. She proceeded to douse several packs of them in bleach. And, according to the Big Brother house rules, players are only allowed to "hide" belongings of others, not "destroy."

At this point, Big Brother stepped in and gave Jen a penalty nomination, which means she will automatically be one of the house guests nominated next week and will not be allowed to participate in the HOH or POV competition. This penalty came about when Jen decided to take herself off of Slop and eat normal food (which she had committed herself to edure in order to win POV a couple weeks ago) in addition to being a destroyer. The problem with this is that now Jameka becomes the target of the house guests for eviction this week. With Jen almost guaranteed out next week from her penalty nomination, why not get rid of Jameka for "free" this week to narrow down the playing field even more?

So, Big Brother realized that this plan unfairly harms Jameka, and I believe their next move may be to actually remove Jameka from being nominated forcing everyone to only be able to vote Jen out. And, fans are outraged at this! Is Big Brother fixing the game? Should Jen be punished? Is it fair for her to remain in the house another week given that she is not following the house's rules? Should she be allowed to cast a vote as a member of the jury for one of the final 2 contestants when she's proven to be unruly? Can she swim 1 mile in the pool and "wash" away her wrongdoing? Oh, Big Brother!

My prediction is that Jen is going home this week!
Right now, Eric actually has the best odds to win at 4/1 at Bodog!
Next in descending order are:
Daniele with odds 2/9 at Bodog
Jessica with odds 5/1 at Bodog
Jameka with odds 6/1 at Bodog
Dick with odds at 7/1 at Bodog
Amber with odds 8/1 at Bodog
Zach with odds 9/1 at Bodog
Jen with odds 10/1 at Bodog

I hope Dick, Daniele, Eric, and Jessica make it to the final 4!

Everyone loves the Hollywood awards season! You know, with the Golden Globes and the Oscars! And who can blame us?, because we get to see our favorite celebs in their best attire on one of the most important nights of their lives! But what I'm ALSO interested in this week are the RAZZIE nominations! I mean, how great is it to have an annual awards show that presents the Dis-Honors for Worst Achievements in Film?! Where else can we publicly recognize celebrities like Tom Cruise for gracing us with the most ANNOYING tabloid stories and stunts for the year? And how else can we show Paris Hilton that we just don't buy her acting "skills?" Well, my friends, this is all accomplished at the RAZZIES!
Movies like "Little Man" and "Basic Instict 2" racked up 7 nominations EACH this year! (OUCH!) "Bloodrayne", "Lady in the Water", and "Wicker Man" are all in the running for Worst Picture. But my favorites are in the "Best Actress" category! I think the Razzies nailed these on the head!:
We have repeat offender Jessica Simpson (Employee of the Year), re-hab queen Lindsay Lohan (Just my Luck), newcomer Kristanna Loken (Bloodrayne) and the Duff sisters, Hilary and Haylie (Material Girls). It's definitely gonna be a close call!! Bodog's odds list Sharon Stone as the favorite to win at 2/5, and Jessica Simpson is the predicted longshot winner at 30/1.
I must say, one of the most disturbing trends this year is for former "Home Improvement" funny man Tim Allen. He has been knocked with not 1, not 2, but 3 nominations within the Worst Actor category! I know you must be thinking: "But he was so good in "Santa Clause 3," "Shaggy Dog," AND "Zoom!" Oh wait, maybe not. Either way, I still feel bad for the guy!
Bodog has all the current odds up for this year's fabulous Razzies, which will be held February 24 - the night before the Oscars! If you ever thought you had an eye for dishonorable artists, now is the time to cash in on your expertise!! Putting your money on anything nominated from "Basic Instict 2" and/or "Little Man" are as sure as bets come!
