RECAP: Big Brother 7/27 – Who Overplayed Their Hands?

On Wednesday July 27, Big Brother 13, we joined our houseguests during Rachel’s second stint as Head of Household and Dominic and Adam on the eviction chopping block.


ADAM AND DOMINIC ON THE BLOCK
Immediately after the nominations, Dominic felt safe as a pawn because he had struck a deal with Brendon and Rachel on the last episode to form an alliance with them and his BFF in the house, Daniele.

Adam did not feel totally safe from eviction because even though he was assured by Brenchel that he is just a pawn, he didn’t really believe her. Rachel went and spoke to both Adam and Dom soon after the nominations and told them she is open to deals. Dom was justifiably taken aback because he felt he already had a deal in place with Rachel.


DANIELE WORKS ON RACHEL
Daniele told Rachel that if she makes a big move, she knows the house would support her – and by a big move, she meant back dooring Jeff and Jordan. Daniele kept pressuring Rachel about this idea at every chance she got. Her brainwashing seemed to be working as we later saw Brendon and Rachel taking a bubble bath together and discussing a possible back dooring of Jeff in between mutual foot massages. The two seemed confused as to the strength of their veteran alliance and were considering getting rid of their strongest allies to date.


DOMINIC MEETS WITH RACHEL
Dom again told Rachel he wants to work with Brenchel 100% because he trusts them over Jeff and Jordan since Brenchel wanted to pull Dom off of the block last week. Dom told them Adam is a wildcard and he can’t read him. Brendon asked Dom to throw the POV and Dom agreed.

JEFF GROWS SUSPICIOUS
Jeff sees Dom and Daniele hanging out all the time and thinks something is fishy since he is supposed to be in an alliance with Daniele and she knows he wants Dom out of the house. Meanwhile, Daniele went to meet with Rachel and Brendon again and almost threw a tantrum when she found out that they had convinced Dom to throw the Veto competition–this made Brendon start to question Daniele’s motives. The four veterans met up and discussed Daniele and all came up with the conclusion that it is in Daniele’s best interest for the four of them to fight so that she can ride into the finale while the four of them knock each other out.


VETO COMPETITION
Rachel picked Jeff and Jordan’s name out of the bag to play and picked Porsche as the host. The players went outside and found a giant stubbly-legged lady in a bathtub outside. The Hot Legs game was individual play and each person had to pluck hairs from the woman’s legs, and each hair had a letter. The person who spelled the longest word using the hairs would win.

As promised, Dom threw the game. Adam tried his hardest because he did not feel safe. Funny enough, they each spelled 9-letter words and came in tied for second. Here is what everyone spelled:

Little – Jordan
Standings – Dom (Brendon asked himself, who spells a 9-letter word when trying to throw a comp?)
Moustrizing – Rachel wanted to spell “moisturizing” but obviously misspelled it.
Fractions – Adam
Expresses – Jeff
Understanding – Brendon (Brendon used the same word as he spelled last year in a spelling comp!)

Brendon won the POV comp.

DOM OPENS UP TO SHELLY
Even though Dom felt comfortable in his deal with Brenchel, he figured it would be a good idea to secure the votes of other newbies to make sure he stays in the house. So, he approached Shelly and asked her to vote against Adam for eviction. In the process, he made the fatal mistake of telling Shelly that Daniele has his back and they want Jeff out of the game. Shelly agreed to give Dom her vote but later said in the Diary Room that Dom wants to go after the two people she trusts the most (Jeff and Jordan) and that is not good for Shelly.

SHELLY RATS OUT DOM AND DANIELE
Shelly met with Jordan and told her that Dom and Daniele are working together and that Dom wants Jeff out. The two of them ran straight to Rachel and Brendon and told them of their findings. Brendon then met with Jeff and came clean about Dom asking them to team up with him and Daniele.  Brendon promised Jeff that from now on, they would have J&J’s back one million percent. Jeff said he will have their back too until final four.

VETO CEREMONY
Brendon decided not to use the POV, so, on Thursday, either Adam or Dominic will be evicted. And we will have another twist hit the BB house.

VIDEO: Marko & Allison Bring Lady Gaga To Tears On SYTYCD

Allison Holker came back to the July 27th episode of So You Think You Can Dance as an Allstar to dance with Marko Germar in a Contemporary Sonja Tayeh routine about damaging someone and basking in the guilt so much that you want to do better by them.

The number, which was performed to I Know it’s Over by Jeff Buckley, brought Lady Gaga to tears. She said “I am just so proud of you,” and could not finish speaking for a bit. “You really love to dance and I know your mom is here [She had flewn in from Guam]. There were so many things I did wrong when I was young and so many things I wish I could take back…and I felt every moment of that through your dance tonight.”

Mary Murphy called Marko amazing and said he is sincere and honest in his style. She said he is still and by far her favorite dancer on the show.

Nigel Lythgoe said this was a remarkable moment since Marko had the opportunity to thank his mother.

Watch the performance below:

VIDEO: Lady Gaga Throws Shoe At Sasha & Melanie On SYTYCD

On Wednesday, July 27 So You Think You Can Dance episode, Melanie Moore and Sasha Mallory closed the night with an electrifying all girl Jazz routine choreographed by Sonja Tayeh and performed to Game On by District 78.

Guest judge Lady Gaga threw her shoe at the stage, saying in the dance community when you do a really good job, you throw your shoe at the stage. She later threw the other shoe at Sonja.  Gaga said, “Everybody can pack up and go home because that was the performance of the evening…You were born this way!”

Mary Murphy: “You just brought it and threw it all over the stage.” She also called the routine the best number of the night and Sonja’s best number ever. She summarized it as strength and power plus elegance and beauty.

Nigel Lythgoe said Beyonce must have been inspired by Sasha to go with Sasha Fierce. He also said Sonja had unleashed the beasts in the girls. He could not tell who is a better dancer between the two, but promised one of the pair of them could be this year’s champion.

Watch the fierce ladies in action:

VIDEO: Tadd Looked Like A “Young Elvis Presley W/ Michael Jackson Moves” On SYTYCD

On Wednesday July 27 episode of So You Think You Can Dance, Nigel Lythgoe broke his own rule and allowed a winner to come back as an Allstar for the first time ever.

That winner, Lauren Froderman, danced with Tadd Gadduang to a Mandy Moore Jazz routine. Set against Queen’s Another One Bites The Dust, the number was about two masterminds pulling off a heist.

Tadd rocked the number even though he lost his prop hat early on when he got socked and hit by Lauren; Tadd never missed a beat despite the fact that he was bleeding a bit!

Nigel Lythgoe said the style suits Tadd and said he picks up various styles like a sponge and absorbs it brilliantly even though he’s never had any past choreography. Nigel also said Tadd will not be biting the dust this week!

Guest judge Lady Gaga thought it was amazing and perfect.

Gev, Nava, Tadd and me 🙂

Rob Marshall said Tadd keeps surprising us and called him special.

Mary Murphy said Tadd put the “C” in cool and looked like a young Elvis Presley with Michael Jackson moves. “You will land yourself in the finale, I just know it,” Murphy concluded.

I just happened to meet Tadd tonight at The Grove in Los Angeles after his performances Wednesday night and fell in love with his sweet demeanor, friendly manner and down to earth style. GOOD LUCK AND BEST WISHES TO YOU TADD!  Also met Tadd’s friend, Gev Manoukian of season 4 –amazing guy!

Watch his performance.

VIDEO: Melanie Moore Steals Lady Gaga’s Heart On SYTYCD

On Wednesday July 28, 2011, Melanie Moore and All star Neil Haskell danced an athletic Contemporary number choreographed by Mandy Moore to Total Eclipse of the Heart by Bonnie Raitt. 
The dance was about the a couple being at the crossroads of their relationship and the ups and downs of a love affair.

The couple received a standing ovation of the judges and the audience.

Guest judge Lady Gaga said “My hat is off to you baby, you are my favorite in this competition. I would hire you tomorrow to dance on my tour….There is something so athletic and passionate and beautiful about you.”
Guest judge Rob Marshall said, “It’s just poetic what you do. It’s like magic.”
Mary Murphy called her fearless and said the number should be nominated for an Emmy. 
Nigel Lythgoe who had earlier said Sasha was his favorite dancer, changed his mind and said Melanie is his fave dancer. 
Watch the amzing number for yourself:

Lee DeWyze Is Engaged!

Congratulations goes out to Lee DeWyze who is now engaged to Joanna Walsh, a model from one of his music videos!

The season 9 American Idol winner popped the question July 16 while on a private yacht at Disney World in Orlando, under a fireworks-filled sky. 
DeWyze told People: “I’m excited!” 
Lee met Walsh last October while shooting a video for his single Sweet Serendipity. “We were casting and I saw her and said, ‘Let’s go with her.’ I thought she was cute.” Guess that’s the best kind of sweet serendipity there could be.

DeWyze spoke of his first date with Walsh: “We hung out and we went to a Lakers game on our first date. She’s a Lakers fan and I’m a Chicago Bulls fan and we just clicked out of the gate.”

The couple has only been dating for 8 months but that does not cause concern for DeWyze who says: “When you know, you know. We both feel that way. We don’t need to be together 20 years before we figure it out.”

You can watch Lee and his fiance in this video of Sweet Serendipity where it all started:

Big Brother 7/27: Who Won POV?

A full recap of Big Brother 13 episode airing July 27, 2011 can be found here, but for now, please keep reading if you want spoilers from the live feed on who won the Power of Veto and what is going on between the alliances.

POWER OF VETO COMPETITION

Adam and Dominic are on the block for eviction. But Brendon won POV in a spelling competition and Brendon used the same word he used last year in the same competition. DUH!

As the week progressed, Rachel, Brendon, Jordan and Jeff caught on to Daniele’s secret plan to drive a wedge between the veteran oldies group by aligning with Dominic, Kalia and Lawon.

Dani keeps trying to get Rachel to backdoor Jeff as HOH. All of this makes the veterans bond even stronger together and plan on getting rid of Dom this week so Dani can’t keep using him to do his dirty work. Too bad they can’t backdoor Dani since she has the Golden Key. This is Big Brother, so, anything is likely to happen or change and Dom may be saved. But for now, Dom is the target for eviction this week.

VIDEO: Lys Agnes Sings Opera On America’s Got Talent

On Tuesday July 26, 2011 episode of America’s Got Talent, the beautiful opera singer in dreadlocks, Lys Agnes, performed Habanera against a giant picture frame.

Lys received a standing ovation from the audience, yet Piers Morgan said her performance did not knock him out. Well, maybe, somebody should! Howie Mandell pointed out to Piers that her act was what he could safely call sexy (referring to Piers having called the teen rope skipping group Summer Wind Skippers sexy earlier).  Howie also said Lys made opera accessible to the masses. Sharon Osbourne said Lys sang the song great and played the role of the temptress well.

The woman has the looks, the talent, and the stage persona to go far on this show. Watch for yourself:
