BB13: Monday Wake-up, Aug 29

Good Morning BB Dishers!

Since Pandora has returned the duos this week and Rachel has won the veto, Rachel and Jordan will be coming off the block to be replaced by Shelly and Adam, today. In anticipation of this, both Adam and Shelly have begun their campaigning to Rachel and Jordan who have been handling it like a well-oiled machine.

Adam seems to have rejoined his "fake" alliance, for the next few days anyway, as a result of his immediate peril in the game and his learning that Kalia has gone around talking about her F2 deal with him. Shelly started by trying to mend the bridge she burned with Jordan on a personal level, and swallowed her hatred for Rachel to promise them the BB sun and the moon. As of now, Rachel and Jordan are definitely leaning toward working with Adam and evicting Shelly whom they trust less. The power now lies in their hands.

It's still a long way to Thursday, so you can count on more campaigning and machinations on the live feeds.

To get a bird's eye view on the discussions and events from last night, refer to Carolyn's well-crafted, entertaining and detailed Overnight Report.

While I wait for the final 6 to be woken, I would like to take some time to muse on the game we all love to much.

Throughout every season, we have to keep reminding ourselves that this is a game, but it isn't "just" a game. This is a game that traps people in a house together and throws physical and mental hurdles for them to overcome. This can be emotional, mental and physical torture. We, as fans, become invested in them because this game shows people in our their faults and glory.

This season, like others in the past, is sparking quite a lot of passion and heated debate, and some horrific reactions. We have to remember that the house guests, like the rest of us, are human with the full spectrum of emotions, abilities, triumphs and downfalls. We also have to remember that every single person who is and has been in the house has loved ones and people who truly care about them in the real not the "reality" sense of the word, and what we say about them will not only hurt them but all their loved ones as well. We need to be fair and compassionate towards them because no matter how much we want to put them in the roles of villain and hero, the truth is, they are neither. They are simply people.

Every year, when our favorites tumble, when circumstances don't go their way, there is always an outcry against production rigging and favoritism, in the house and outside. Alison Grodner and other members of production have vociferously and repeatedly stated that they have no favorites in the game, whether you choose to believe it or not, and  the twists they throw in are to keep the game interesting and the viewers invested. This is, after all, a money-making entertainment venture, not a charity event. The bottom line is, they provide what we love to watch, and they have done it brilliantly throughout the years.  As a fan of the game, I appreciate this, despite the fact that often the people I have been rooting for did not make it to the end, or won.

I have seen many comments and tweets from fans and past house guests saying that so-and-so doesn't "deserve" to win. To that I say, whoever makes it to the end, with whatever means and circumstances took them there, deserves to win. It might not be the one we like, or the one who has played the "best game" in our estimation, but they got there, whether it's as a result of their smart moves or others' bad ones, and for that reason alone they have earned the right to be crowned winner.

That's it for my musings. Game on!

9:01 AM BBT
Wakey, Wakey House Guests!

9:14 AM BBT
Lights on!

  • Jordan and Rachel are awake and chatting about getting ready.
  • Adam and Shelly are talking about the upcoming PoV ceremony. Adam ponders jokingly whether they will use the Veto on themselves. Shelly comments that they are protecting each other "like mother and child". 
  • Adam comments about starting DRs and Skippy does his thing. 
  • When the feeds come back shortly after, Adam is talking about Biore strips and face scrubs he did last night in HoH.
  • Kalia has joined them, up uncharacteristically early, and Shelly greets her exuberantly saying that the song they played this morning is about their Final 4.
  • Skippy, ever-conscious of copyright infringement, intervenes.
  • A minute later, Kalia and Shelly are teasing Adam about them all making him more girly. Shelly comments that the house is aging her. 
  • Kalia goes back to bed. Adam says he's nervous; and Shelly tells him not to be, that he should know they're going up and then they have to fight. She goes inside for another pack of smokes.
  • Jordan, who has gotten up, returns to the Candy room and gets back into bed. Rachel isn't feeling well and stays in bed. They lapse into quiet slumber.
  • Shelly has rejoined Adam outside. Talk turns to the Veto ceremony. Shelly says that this happened as a result of Porsche opening Pandora's box and that it was a thoughtless move on her part. They discuss this for a bit and Adam wraps it up that their fates lie in Rachel and Jordan's hands and that they will make the best decision for both of them. Shelly agrees there will be no separation.
  • Adam decides to lie back down. He goes to the Candy room, tells the girls what time it is and hops back into bed.
  • Porsche is up in HoH.
  • 9:38 AM BBT, Jordan gets up to get ready and has a brief super-sonic whisper-fest with Adam. I don't catch what they said, but they shook hands at the end of the brief encounter, so I am assuming she reassured him that he was staying.
  • Rachel, who was out of the room, speeds in and speeds out to the bathroom. Jordan asks her what's wrong and why she's acting like that. Rachel says she's feeling weird. She thinks she has a stomach bug.
  • 9:55 AM BBT, Rachel has revived and is putting on make-up, while Jordan, fresh out of the shower, does so as well (f1 and 2) Rachel and Jordan chat pleasantly.
  • Shelly is doing laundry and pacing in the backyard.
  • 10:12 AM BBT, the two are still primping in the bathroom and chatting. Shelly joins them. They greet each other pleasantly. Shelly hops into the shower while the girls do their hair.
  • 10:21 AM BBT, and is very complimentary. She proceeds to do her hair as well.
  • F1 and 2, 10:27 AM BBT, Adam reaffirms to Jordan that they're "good". They discuss Shelly, her back-and-forth and that she's now trying to cover her tracks. Jordan makes sure that Adam is on the same page going into the next HoH competition. It's a brief conversation but a pithy one.
  • F 1 and 2, 10:43 AM BBT, Porsche is quizzing Adam about who told Rachel that Janelle gave her the lucky ring because Rachel asked about it. Adam is mystified. Skippy is too. We get brief palm trees and when we come back, Jordan has joined them outside, soon to be followed by Rachel. 
  • Rachel is called to DR.
  • 10:48 AM BBT, Trivia. PoV Ceremony under way.

WOW! I thought when my hubby saw the article about Shelly's family being threatened that it was just a TMZ rumor! It's so sad that some people can't tell the difference between reality & a game! I feel so bad for her family & imagine what she will feel like when she finds out! This world really has gone crazy ... It just makes me sad :( anyway Carolyn & Genie, thanks again for all you do!

Genie, I agree 100% with what you said. I am of course hoping to see Jorchel in the end, because I think Rachel for all she is ridiculed and sneered about deserves to win the money. She is a fierce competitor and I think if she gets to the final 3 she will at least win 2 outta the 3 comps in the end.....Here's to wishful thinking =D

I have never commented on this blog before but have read it for the last two years. I want to thank you for insightful and kind reporting and not using nasty or hurtful language. I do have favorites in this game, as I do every year, but I do not hate anyone and wish all and their families the best. I can't even imagine how hard it must be to be in that house for so many weeks and am appreciative of all that are willing to do that each season for our pleasure. Blessings to Caro and Genie for your wonderful spirits and reporting!

Oops - I wanted to put these in the new section!

There have been lots of seasons when I've been all for the "backstabber" to win because they truly played a good game (even if I was never a "fan" of theirs throughout their season). But there is something about Shelly's style that doesn't feel the same. She is so mean-spirited with the comments about Rachel that go way across the line for me. It's not game anymore and it's just plain nasty. So I think that might be the reason she strikes such a nerve with people. It's way beyond the lines of catty. Just my opinion.

Two additional things...

1. I think the Genie/Sorceress/Fortune Teller will be part of one of the comps to come. I hope nobody in the house gets any special "power" or info from it while it's in the house. It could definitely seem rigged depending on who gets it, you know? Hopefully it's just a tease of a comp to come...

2. I, like many of you on here, was a Rachel hater last year. Woah. I was not happy to see her back in the game this year. But I really, really, really have had a change of heart with her this year. She does slip back into old ways on occasion, but she seems a lot more aware of her behavior this season and I really credit her for that. With all of that said, I REALLY hope she sees how many people outside have changed their minds about her and supported her this year and gets some sort of satisfaction/closure/whatever you want to call it out of this season. I for one will be voting for her as America's Favorite just to applaud her for the change!

Anyone else up for that? :-)

I hope Jordan and Rachel keep their heads in the game this week and don't get caught in Shelley's web (again)! I am just ready for them to evict her and get to see some of the jury house upon her arrival!! Not wishing anything bad on her, just to exit left or out the door.

Morning all, thanks for the updates. Great intro Genie, I have said it before and it's so true, it's so easy to hate on houseguests, but if I honestly think of myself in that pressure cooker situation, I have no idea how I would handle myself. Not even in that situation, I like to think of myself as a decent human being, but if there were cameras on me 24/7 I might not come off that way 100%, I think that's true for all of this. This game magnifies human fault to an extraordinary degree, and I think that's why were all hooked on it. My best wishes to Shelly and her family.

@Anon 9.37

I am, like you, voting for Rachel for the America's Favorite. One reason is to show those who have been way too hateful towards her in the house. She was the constant scapegoat. I always tend to go towards those picked on. And the other reason is all the hate she endured after last year and her hardship finding work etc. I want her to come out with a new attitude and hopefully she can see she is being rewarded for having matured some. She has done nothing that no other has done in that house. I wish her a Brendon luck and no matter what that morning sickness is all about... I hope she can deal with it however she wants to.

Good morning everyone, as well as Genie and Carole!

Here are my positive thoughts re: the game

Shelly leaves on Thursday, and as she's welcomed into the jury house, she makes amends with all 3 already there, Brendan, Daniele, and Jeff. And CBS shows it on TV, and it dispels all of the anti-Shelly sentiment that some 'attention-needy' and 'i don't have nothing more important to do' crowd into submission that all is A-OK and that Shelly is not the second coming of the anti-Christ...

Kalia and Porshe, in my opinion, don't deserve to win. Period.

Their 15 minutes of fame will be over after only 5 minutes. No ratings potential.

Rachel, Jordan, Adam in the F2.

Jordan's already won once.

Rachel will let it go to her head that she is the greatest thing since sliced bread if she wins. And that may not be healthy for her.

Adam is the clear winner. He shows that you can win this game without being a Shellyist...

Thanks, and have a great week everyone.

And thank you Irene for treading lightly.

Good Morning Genie,

Thank you for breaking down the facts about the game.

I have always appreciated the fact that Dish is a hate-free zone. Not opinion free, but hate free.

I do not like Shelly's game play, like many BB fans, but threats against her and her family seem so unfair, to say the least. Threats are unbelievable cruel.

Carolyn compared Shelly's game play to Dr. Will. The main difference between the two is charisma. Dr. Will had it and Shelly does not. Nevertheless she agreed to go on a show for our entertainment and a chance at 500K. I have always said if they put 14 Jordan's in the house it would be a very boring show. Then who would we root for.

I hope that the BB fans that are sending hate towards Shelly have a very short memory. I hope that those of us who think it is absurd aren't afraid to say so.

Question for everyone: Who amongst us thinks that a 'duo' will win the final prize??

Meaning: If Jordan wins, Jordan & Jeff will be sharing the money, and so on.. based on their original pairings when the season started.. as per the picture in the headmast of this site...

Thank you.

As fans I disagree a little with what you wrote in the intro this morning. I think we do have a right to nail some of HG on their strategies and if they deserve to win or not. That is just part of the game and without our viewership and comments BB would not exist.
Now I understand about the death threats and obviously those people are mentally or emotionally disturbed. However, it is not fair to blame this attitude on the other 20 million of us who watch. We are emotionally invested in the outcome of BB and we do have a right to state our opinions about who just coasts in or who lies their way to the top. Its part of the game.
I am a new fan, only second season and I don't think these house guests are naive. They know they will be made out as sinners and saints. That's also part of the game. Its fun to love to hate some of them. Most of us fans out here are well adjusted adults who never hurt anyone and just because some screw balls out there took it too far, I don't feel its fair to scold us all. We know its a game, a game we love with all our hearts. I look forward to getting my BB fix- everyday on this site but I don't like the creators thinking we are evil fans that want to bash the HG. We don't. We just play along and root or boo for the HG we love or despise.

morning genie, poignant commentary.

i wolud point out that rachel early on stated that her appearance on the show (she believed) led to her not being taken serious by future employess in the field she aspired to join.

the point is, yes it is a game, and the actions taken by people during the game do have repercussions. in no event sholud death threats or other stupid antics be rationalized but for what they are.

What a great post with your reminder about this being a game and keeping things in perspective. Spoken so eloquently wish it could be posted all over the internet to out of control hate mongers.

As an advide BB fan I can't imagine what anyone could do that would cause this much hate for one person. Please know that 99.9 percent of us just love the show & yes we may rant about what one HG does to another we know that it's all part of the BB game. I hope that
this doesn't lessen
Shelly's BB experience. She must have worked hard to get on the show. Please know that I'm praying for you're families safety & also for the sick minds that would want to harm a child for something that happens on a game show.

Good Morning Genie of the Sea!! Thank you for once again reminding me of what I should focus on ... the GAME!!! Your muse was spot on of course ... THANKS!

Okay, I have been quite vocal that I am and have been Team Vets!! I have always loved Rachel and Jordan ... Maybe more Jordan, but I digress ...

Rachel is quite the competitor, when she is focused! I wouldn't mind seeing Rachel and Jordan in the F2 ...

Jordan, I so love the fiesty Jordan, that is why I have her as my avi for right now.

Unfortunately, I never really gave any of the newbies a chance ... I wanted to like Adam right from the start, just was turned off by his rocker screaming ... I like the Adam he is now ... more just himself ... I am guessing ...

Shelly, I really liked her twist with Kalia, she orchestrated it wonderfully. Then she went downhill IMO ...

Porsche, well, she is now showing us that she is not just another pretty face ... back to back wins ...

Kalia, really has annoyed me most of the season with her constant talking, IMO ...

So, who would I like to see be evicted Thursday, Shelly. Then we have the f5 ... I would like Kalia to go next, then the rest duke it out ... so to speak, not literally ..

Love the dish ... go no where else ... well, twitter to see when there are updates on the dish ...

This is my first season reading this blog and I find myself coming to get updates every day. I never comment on any blogs, never give my two cents on contestants or game play but I love to come here and read the non biased updates. With that said, I think the girls that write this blog are class acts. They have created a blog that allows me to get the scoop without any judgements against certain players. In the end, thats what these people are, They are players in a game. And the point that Carolyn and Genie can seperate that and create something so informative, its a beautiful thing. Stay classy girls. Good job.

Good morning/afternoon Carolyn, Ganie and everyone.

First time on the computer today so I'm way behind. Just wondering if it's clear which side Adam is on right now? As long as the plan is to vote out Shelly he can still kind of play it in the middle. But if he were to win HOH would he be more likely to nominate JR or KP?

Also, why is Kalia so concerned about making sure she votes the same way as JR? I thought she was so against people being sheep and feeling that they had to vote with the house. If I were J&R I would tell Kalia I was voting Adam out just to make sure that Shelly was evicted and Adam would know Kalia voted against him.

Since I have a lot of reading to do, this may have all been covered already.

Correct me if I am wrong but didn't Porshe tell everyone on her HOH reveal that it was her lucky ring that she got from Janelle? I am pretty sure I read that on here.

Porsche told only Kalia, Shelly and Adam because it's such an important piece of information that Rachel and Jordan don't need to know (*eye roll)

Good Afternoon BB Gods and Goddesses :)

Now that all types of hurricanes (both in and out of the house) have rolled through and sunshine and light abounds today, I would like to say what a lovely day it is!

Jordan and Rach come off the block. Adam and Shelly go on. Setting up for the Shelly eviction on Thursday. It will be a good week indeed.

Adam has played a pretty good game so far. Floating, yes, but also playing pretty strongly with Jeff and Jordan, he only flipped when he sort of had to for his own life. You do what you have to in this game sometimes.

Rach has really turned her game around. I love Rach 2.0 much better than Brenchel. Maybe outside of the house their relationship works for them well. Inside, under the magnifying glass, not so much.

Jordan and Jeff are adorable, inside, as well as outside the house. We all have our moments and the magnifying glass of the house is tough. But Jeff is a good guy, and Jordan has wings under there somewhere I swear. She is just too darn cute. Together they are adorable. I think Rach is learning a lot from being around them and now around just Jordan. Hopefully the same is happening in Jury for the men.

Kalia, as well as Porche, nothing to say since Imma keep it positive. :) Okay three words for them both.. ego, ego and yappppppppp. Lordy! Back to positive.

Go Jordan, Rach, and Adam. I would love to see Rach win the big bucks, Jordan in 2nd, with Adam getting Amercia's player.

Have a wonderfully sunny and happy day all.

(hows that for sunshine and light?)

Hi Genie and Carolyn ...
This is my first season reading BBDish and all I can say is what took me so long!!! Thank goodness one of my fellow BB chatters told me about this fabulous site!

I find your blogs informative and witty and love your comments along with those of the other dishers.

I was one who was a champion of Shelly's at the very start and was SO disappointed in what seemed to me her abrupt change of behavior.

Last night's show presented Shelly as never before ... I believe her true self. I hope her daughter didn't get to see it.

Porsche foolishy took Pandora's Box ... Kalia wisely (for a change) commented: When you have a full house you don't try to better that hand. But happily for me and other Jordan/Rachel fans she did so. I have also changed my opinion of Rachel since last year and wish her much luck getting to the F2. I will be happy to see any of Rachel, Adam or Jordan getting there and happy if any of of them.

I am in Boston hoping to get back to NY tomorrow (stuck because of Irene) but grateful to my stepson and family for letting me watch the feeds.

Sorry for going on so long but once again thank you for this wonderful site! It is the absolute BEST and congratulations to you on hitting the 20 million mark!

Good afternoon everyone!

In my perfect BB World, Shelly leaves Thursday, and Rachel or Jordan wins HoH. Then next week Porsche or Kalia leaves! I guess Kalia does deserve to win to an extent, but not Porsche! She has done nothing all season until this week when she won a POV and an HOH. And what I can't get over, is when she won POV and said: "this is what Daniele would want"----What?! You should be making moves for your own self in the game. After she said that that sealed the deal that she should not win in my opinion. Hopefully the jury takes what she said, and uses that against her. And I know it's just a game, but I also can't get past what Porsche said about the medicine ball and saving Rachel 400 dollars. That's just classless. And not to mention how Porsche frequently bashes Jordan up in the HoH room! (jealous much?)

Rachel really does deserve to win the game! She's a competitor, and she wants to be there! Also, she could really use the money. If Rachel were in the F2 I really hope the jury wouldn't take it personally and not vote for her.

As much as I love Jordan, (she is my favorite) she needs to step it up a little! But I have faith in her because she did step it up and win for herself in BB11!

Still not caught up. Just finished TOR and comments.

Regarding Pandora's Box-I actually don't know what to think of the twists. If they are planned ahead of time, as to what the twists will be and what week they will come into play then it really comes down to luck of the draw as to who they will benefit. But since it seems like they always pop up at the 'perfect' moment it does look a little suspicious.

However, the HGs do have some control. They know when there is a secret power they should consider ther nomination/eviction options very strategically. Especially since they usually have a pretty good hunch which HG has that power.

With the pair choosing for this weeks twist, Porsche could have offered to share her prize with Jordon or Rachel and paired up that way. But there's no way she or Kalia would have considered the option of giving one of them $5000. And when it came down to it, they didn't care about Adam or Shelly being put at risk as long as they were safe.

Just to clarify my statement about the jury house...I think they all will crack up when our friend and theirs (meaning Shelly) enters the house because I absolutely know they know it's part of the game. They ALL will say we got got, have a great big laugh and then a drink! That's what I want to see anyway! There all positive!

Your blog is the best ever. I have been so disappointed the last two years with BB Gossip blogs that were supposed to keep me up to date, but only posted after shows. You really rock when it comes to doing the overnight reports and keeping me informed of what is going on right now. Sorry for the all caps, but LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your site.

I was a pro football player years ago and had to put up with a lot of fan love and hate. The point being, when you are out in the public eye, you have to expect there will be people who like you and people that don't. The trick was not to give them a real reason for hating you (like Vick is going through). Dr. Will and Evil Dick lied and cheated their way through the house, but people thought it was okay. Shelly is not getting that break because she preaches like someone who is above the rif raft to the point that I wonder whether she really knows she is lying. She knew Jordan was extremely vulnerable right after Jeff left, but chose to confront Jordan by towering over her and screaming at her (there was the reason to hate her). With all that said, the threats on her family are beyond sanity and should be dealt with as felonies.

Can anyone tell me how this is going to end on the 14th? The anniverarsy of 9/11 will be on Sunday so BB will not come on. How are they going to end it without showing us how?
