Was there going to be an upset on Big Brother? Would Adria secure a place for her and her sister in the house by staying alive another week? We waited with baited breath as Julie made the call, and Holly was evicted by a vote of 7-1. I was quite surprised that Holly did not start bawling. She looked absolutely shocked that she was leaving, although she might have had some idea since she gave a few gifts to Jase before Julie announced the decision. Personally, it was a stupid decision for the Horsemen, but I have to lay it on Jase. Relationships built inside the house are not built for longevity. Ask Chiara and Roddy or Lisa and Eric. And to be practical, the obvious attachment they shared only creates a bigger target on each member of the group. The game is breaking up alliances, and if you are "in love" with somebody, you would think they have full disclosure. Although Jase promised the Horsemen Holly was not his priority in the house, they couldn't be sure of that and so took her out of the equation.
A lot of people have had a question about Holly's intelligence, and it was probably answered today during the Julie interview. Now, in fairness, if I bump into Holly somewhere in Hollywood or on the Strip, I will give her the benefit of the doubt like she has always asked, but if she breaks out that laugh on me, I'll go crazy. So, Holly went through her exit interview with little of interest to say, although her housemates had some great things to say about her. We continued on the theme of bitter goodbye recordings when Diane came out saying she was happy Holly was gone. I am still waiting for somebody to just come out and say "You really sucked. How do like deez nuts BEEYOTCH!", but Diane was close enough for now. Holly left us with one more precious moment when Julie Chen pulled the Adria/Natalie video out and Holly was literally stupefied by the revelation. It was information overload and Julie had to prod her a couple of times to get a response.
The Head of Household competition was an endurance challenge, so we won't find out the results until this Saturday, but there is going to be a new level of intrigue in the game. With the Horsemen numbers diminished slightly, it's going to be interesting to see who wins HoH. If the Horsemen win, we surely expect Marving to stay in their camp, but if one of the Girls win, does Marvin try to make a play and buy himself a couple of weeks? All of this pales in comparison to the crazy Natalie twist that is coming next week. The alliances are starting to fray and once one of the Horsemen is gone, there is going to be a great scramble. The most dangerous people right now are Jase, who it seems is desperate for revenge after Holly left, and Diane, who now wields some more power without Holly getting in her way all the time. I wouldn't leave out Nakomis at this point, who has a strong alliance, but is clearly thinking about what she needs to do to save herself as well. Will has disappointed me, leaving way too much work for other peoples and not taking the initiative himself, and those who are too passive are often quick to leave.
