Pamela's Quick Pop-In

I can't believe how quickly the HMs realised the "Pamela Anderson impersonator" was really Pamela Anderson. Good call. Rory was still skeptical when he saw her in the Diary Room, though I think he just didn't know whether to gush or act cool. He did get his hands on her as many times as possible in the Diary Room, just in case.

I cringed when they went into the Banquet Room and there were glasses of champagne on the table. You can just imagine someone like Pamela Anderson drinking BB-quality champagne! A nice 2008 vintage from Dreamworld Winery!

Pamela mentioned a few times that they don't have a Big Brother in the USA. I guess her tastes don't go as far as CBS. BB USA has been running as long as ours has!

Alice was a very good interviewer and knew all the questions to ask from the magazines, about Tommy Lee and her kids. They asked about parent-teacher night at her kids' school and she said she is a member of the Parents and Teachers Association and does crossing guard duty on Mondays. (Did you just imagine a car not stopping and Pamela in the red swimsuit go slow-mo jogging after it too?)

But then halfway through their meal, it was time for Pamela to leave. She promised she would be back tomorrow and would do something to do with abs and glitter. She said she would be in and out of the House until Saturday.

The HMs can't believe their luck getting to hang out with a celebrity, and they have already speculated what she must be thinking of them-- mainly that they are losers and they are crap. Alice has set to work cleaning everything in the House for her return tomorrow.

I guess tomorrow's 1 hour Daily Show will include tonight's events plus Thursday morning's. I still wonder if they will edit it to look like Pamela never left the House. Though airing Brigitte's goodbye message and hand grenade in the middle will show she is missing from their midst.

HMs Tipped Off

BB has a hard time surprising HMs with anything. Why? Because he goes and changes routine when some thing special is coming up. Today BB let HMs sleep in until 1pm. Usually a sleep in is reserved for the weekends and then it is until maybe 10. So because their routine was changed, HMs already suspect a celebrity intruder is coming tonight. They are nowhere near close with their guesses-- Travis guessed Vanessa Amarossi, and the others decided on Natalie Bassingthwaighte (who already intruded in BB06) or Axle Whitehead (though he probably wouldn't be invited to a House where BB tells you off for flashing your genitals). Will they be more or less surprised when they find out it is PamAn?

Surprise Eviction #10: Who Will Go?

No, it's not the 10th Surprise Eviction. It's the 10th Eviction, which is a surprise. Anyway...

Nominated are the usually-saved Alice, the usually-nominated Rory, fan-favourite Terri, over-the-top Brigitte, and under-the-radar Ben. With all those names Nominated, who then is safe?? Just lucky Cherry (who saved himself with the FNL Powers), and Travis.

Betting odds say favourite to be evicted is Rory (at 2:1), closely followed by Brigitte (at 11:4)-- perhaps an effect of the possible "Eric" making allegations about her being a bunny boiler, but fan votes may not follow betting trends. Ben is at 4:1, Alice 11:1. Terri would seem to be safe as houses at 31:1!

The OS poll says Rory is favourite to go (30.3%), then Alice (28.5%). Ben and Brigitte are close at 18.1% and 16.7% respectively, and true to form Terri is at only 6.4%.

Hopefully Alice will pull some votes from somewhere and get kicked out of there. We just have to see Rory in there with Pamela Anderson. Plus Alice doesn't give us much, other than treadmill mileage. If Alice does get evicted, it leaves Brigitte and Terri as the only remaining females! How funny would that be? But if it has to be out of Rory and Brigitte, I say get rid of Rory.

Celebrity Guest VS Major Sponsor

Pamela Anderson has more than BB on her schedule during her Aussie visit. She also plans to speak out against KFC's poor treatment of their chickens.

Since "Yum! Foods" are one of BB's major sponsors with their KFC and Pizza Hut brands, how will they take BB inviting a celebrity rival through its doors onto national TV? What will Pamela think tonight watching the Eviction from her dressing room when they say "Big Brother's Nominations Twist brought to you by KFC Twisters"?

Don't worry, Pammy. I'm sure the Twister lived a long, full, and happy life, and has gone to Double Sweet Chili Heaven!
