Big Brother 2012: Who nominated who In Fourth Week

The Big Brother 2012 housemates nominated for the third time yesterday, and here’s the run down of who nominated who!
Lydia was first into the diary room and nominated Conor, labelling him as “bossy”. Her second nomination was for Shievonne and says; “She is quite intimidating and argumentative”.


Conor was next into the diary room. He nominated Deana branding her as “crafty” and thinks that she is “playing a game”. His next nomination was for Lydia and tells Big Brother; “She is playing the game. She is sneaky. I don’t trust her at all”.

Sara’s first nomination was for Luke A as he has been “irritable” over the last few days in the house. Her second nomination went to Luke S following comments he made during Ashleigh’s birthday party that she found offensive.


A speculative Luke S was next to the diary room. He nominated Lydia; “I don’t trust her, I think she’s acting”. Deana was his second nomination following her poor performance in the ‘Confusing Cuisine’ task.


Shievonne nominated Scott because he doesn’t clean up. Her second nomination was for Adam as the pair have been arguing recently and have not been getting on well.


Luke A nominated Luke S and Caroline. He nominated Luke S deeming his behaviour as aggressive after Benedict’s eviction on Friday. He nominated Caroline following her poor efforts during the ‘Lab Rat’ task in which she failed.


Becky nominated Deana and Lydia. She is fed up of hearing Deana calling herself “fat”. Her nomination for Lydia comes following the task whereby she complained about eating custard; “She was eating custard creams all last week!” she quips.


Adam nominated Caroline because she “manipulates people”. His second nomination was for Shievonne after the pair’s argument and declares; “She plays a lot of games”.


Ashleigh was next into the diary room. She nominated Lauren as the pair do not have anything in common; considering her as “fake”. Her second nomination was for Lydia.


Scott nominated Lydia; “She’s quite serious, sneaky and intense” he said. His second nomination was for Adam because he cannot be himself around him.


Lauren nominated Deana and pronounces “She jumped on the bandwagon when everyone nominated me. She has betrayed my trust”. Her second nomination was for Luke S as he thinks he is the boss in the house. Also, Lauren blames Ashleigh for the pair not knowing each other well; “She won’t let me speak to him”, she says.


Deana nominated Luke S because they do not share a connection. She is dubious that he only spoke to her the day prior to nominations and does not feel comfortable in his company on her own. Her second nomination was for Conor; “He’s always had a problem with me since I nominated him” she retorts.


Arron nominated Lydia as she is fake; “She plays people off against each other and talks about people behind their backs”. His second nomination was for Deana as they have had too many run-ins and he feels that she contributes towards a “depressing atmosphere”.


Finally, Caroline nominated Adam. Reasons for her nomination include: that he doesn’t flush the toilet, he makes comments about the girls in the house and asks inappropriate questions. Her second nomination was for Luke A as his behaviour personality is erratic; “He goes from being a big angry beast to a timid little mouse looking for cheese”.
With six votes and five votes respectively, Lydia and Deana will face the public vote.
Ashleigh, Arron, Becky and Sara did not receive any nominations.

Big Brother Star Game 2012: Seventh week Nominations Barbz, Maneta & Prezzo nominated

As the Big Brother Africa 2012 is moving on seventh week therwe was nominations in the Upvilel and this nominations puts three housemates up from Evction,For some reason, Roki and Keitta dodged the Nominations dagger. Perhaps Keitta hasn't stepped on any toes yet since he's still pretty new in Upville but Roki has definitely rub some Upvillers the wrong way.

However, Roki's been strategically planting stories amongst the Housemates, which led to them nominating each other and totally forgetting about him. Maneta got the highest Nominations (4) followed by Prezzo and Barbz who both got three Nominations, Goldie and Lady May both got two Nominations each.

Goldie nominated Maneta and Lady May, Prezzo put up Barbz and Maneta, Maneta returned the favour to Prezzo and Goldie, surprisingly stabbed his girlfriends Barbz and Maneta and Roki thought he could follow suite. It was quite disturbing that Roki repeated the same mistake of nominating his fellow countrymate but one of his many reasons for doing so was that she dislikes him. Lady May put up Prezzo and Goldie for not pulling their weight when she was HoH and finally,Barbz nominated Prezzo and Lady May.


It is all up to Goldie to save either Barbz, Lady May or Prezzo.
Update:


Later Goldie did not hesitate to save her man from the Eviction gallows this evening.

The Nigerian singer is Head of House this week and as HoH, has the power to 'Save and Replace' any Housemate she chooses. The Starmate she chose to save was none other than the love of her life, Prezzo (as if she would pick anyone else). In Prezzo's place, Goldie did not hesitate to put up Upville newbie Keitta.

Before Goldie went into the Diary Room to make the swap, Prezzo smiled like the cat that got the cream. He obviously had no doubts whatsoever, that his lady would come through for him. Goldie gave things away also by eyeballing the other Housemates and asking "Who could have done this to Prezzo?" as she walked to the Diary Room to reveal her 'Save and Replace' decision. Little does Goldie know that the man she lives for has gone behind her back and gossiped about her. Hows that for loyalty? 

Well, it looks like Prezzo's strategy has worked for him beautifully. He made up with Goldie after giving her the run around, just in time for the crucial Nominations.

The two ladies hugged it out and said their goodbyes and then Jesica left the stage.
As soon as she entered Upville, Junia expressed her thoughts on how who she wishes will be the second upgraded Downville, saying: “I hope it’s not Keagan, I hope it’s Lee”.

Kegan and Junia

       Earlier on while up on the Live Eviction Stage StarGame presenter IK grilled Junia about the number of guys she has kissed in the House. Over the past six weeks she has kissed four guys in total – Alex, Ola, Lee and separated from Leeand over the past six weeks Keagan has always had his more sensible StarGame partner to watch his back during all of his shenanigans. So how will Keagan measure up amongst the backstabbing Housemates of Upville without his wingman? We’ll have to wait and see.


Eviction 
Tonight it was once again that time of the week that all of the StarGamers dread when Africa bids goodbye to more of the Big Brother Housemates. Namibian dame Jesica was the first Housemate to bow out of Big Brother House tonight.
During the Live Eviction Show StarGame presenter IK grilled the Namibian beauty about her relationship with Luke. According to her it is true love, she said: “It’s real, I don’t play with my feelings like that,” before adding “Liberia here I come.” Let’s hope Luke feels the same way.
This week it was the Namibian girls and the South African boys Lee and Keagan that were up for eviction. Voting results are calculated according to the total votes within each country, and only one housemate wins the vote for that country based on majority. Those country votes are then counted to a total of 15 votes, giving the final voting result.

Jesica from Namibia

Lee, the lovable South African cutie was the second Housemate to exit the Big Brother House tonight.
Lee stood on the Live Eviction Stage next to his StarGame partner Keagan while being grilled by StarGame presenter IK about the status of his relationship with Upville newbie Junia.
“You do what you have to survive,” said Lee about their kiss in the Jacuzzi. Wow… we wonder how Junia would feel about how the Downville really feels about their smooch.

Lee From South Africa

IK then read out the voting results saying: “Lee you have been evicted from the Big Brother House.” Lee took the news well and made a graceful exit off of the Live Eviction Stage. But Keagan was clearly upset by the news of his separation from his wingman. He even looked like he was about to break down into tears as the fellas said their final goodbyes.

Big Brother 2012: Who Nominates who in Big Brother House

It’s Day 7 in the Big Brother house and after a week of fun and frolics things are about to get serious as housemates prepare to nominate for the first time.

The nominations are as follows, with housemates reasons:
Due to passing her secret task Becky is immune from nominations but is still able to cast her votes.
 Becky
Becky votes for Chris because she doesn’t feel as though they got off to the best start and states: ‘It’s given me a really bad taste for Chris.’
Her nomination comes as a result of a previous conversation where Chris reacted badly to Becky guessing that he was a rubbish collector.
Becky’s second nomination goes to Lydia because she says: ‘She (Lydia) gets too involved in everyone’s business and gives dirty looks.’
Lydia
Lydia’s first nomination goes to Arron and this is because he is over-confident and playing the game. She adds ‘He doesn’t bring anything to the house.’
Her second nomination is for Deana. She believes that following Becky’s secret task, Deana insinuated that Lydia was talking about Becky behind her back.
Luke
Luke S’ first nomination goes to Deana because she distances herself from fellow housemates and reads into things too much. He says: ‘Deana tries to make everything about herself.’
His second nomination goes to Chris, stating that he feels that he has been on occasion, ‘out of order’.
Benedict
Benedict’s first nomination goes to Scott as he is concerned that at times he can be offensive to other housemates.
Benedict’s second nomination goes to Sara because her character changes, especially when she has had a drink.
Chris
Chris nominates Arron because he feels that despite being a nice person he may be playing a safe game and that he is not being himself.
Chris’s second nomination goes to Caroline because he believes that she can be unhygienic. He also doesn’t like her because she takes the ‘piss’ out of his voice.
Caroline
Caroline’s first nomination goes to Chris because she doesn’t think that he is ‘all there’. She refers to him as unhygienic and does not find him very interesting.
Her second nomination goes to Lauren, accusing her of acting like ‘Mrs Charming’ the evening before nominations. She refers to Lauren as ‘artificial’ and as being overly nice to fellow housemates in order to gain more votes.
Conor
Conor nominates Deana because he feels as though she puts a ‘dampener on everything’ and feels she is over-paranoid. He says that she does not bring a ‘nice vibe’ to the house and believes that she tends to make everything about her.
His second nomination goes to Lydia because he thinks she has a fiery side and at times takes things too seriously. He doesn’t like her general attitude and predicts that if she gets wound up she may explode and cause further problems. His final reason for nominating Lydia is that he considers her as ‘confrontational’.
Deana
Deana’s first nomination goes to Luke S as she feels that he is not being himself and can be overly nice and fake. She believes that he has a game plan that involves him ‘sitting on the fence’, choosing to watch what is going on but failing to contribute any of his own opinions.
Deana’s second nomination is for Arron, as she believes he has a game plan.
Adam
Adam’s first nomination is for Arron because he thinks he is ‘a liar’. This follows the sausage-gate incident where Deana took the blame for taking more than one sausage and Arron denied that he had.
Scott
Scott is next into the Diary Room and nominates Chris. He accuses him of being fake and does not think that Chris ever wants to talk to him. Scott says: ‘He’s been talking to me today and that’s not real. He doesn’t want to talk to me, he’s just being fake.’
His second nomination goes to Benedict and states: ‘I think he sees me as an opposite force.’ He describes Benedict as being serious, which is hard to take when he knows he’s a porn star and tells Big Brother; ‘He’s fake, I don’t think he can take a joke and I don’t find him attractive.’
Lauren
Lauren is the next housemate to be called into the Diary Room. Her first nomination goes to Arron as she believes that some of his principles clash with hers. She refers to the incident in which the boys took sausages from the group and failed to take responsibility for doing so, which led to fellow housemates receiving the blame for his actions.
Lauren’s second nomination goes to Luke S. She feels that he has had a game plan in order to secure his place in the house. She tells Big Brother; ‘He is going round all the girls singularly to get more votes. He has a game plan and saves face to keep everyone happy.’
Sara
Sara is called in next to the Diary Room to make her nominations. Her first nomination is for Lydia because she perceives her as being moody. She says: ‘I haven’t bonded with her, we haven’t really spoken.’
Her second nomination goes to Benedict because he doesn’t like the Royal Family and Sara is bewildered as to why.
Luke A
Luke A’s first nomination goes to Sara. His nomination is based on Sara’s unpredictable tone when she is drunk. He tells Big Brother: ‘She is like a cheetah. Beautiful to look at but can cause harm.’
His second nomination goes to Luke S and describes him as ‘condescending, patronising and arrogant.’
Shievonne
Shievonne is the next housemate to be called into the Diary Room. Her first nomination goes to Caroline because she thinks that she is blunt and sometimes offensive to fellow housemates.
Her second nomination is for Arron, stating he has a competitive nature because he is used to 
competing outside of the house. She also refers to Arron as vain: ‘He does love looking in the mirror.’
Arron
Arron’s first nomination is for Sara. He refers to her as ‘unattractive’ when she is drunk and tells Big Brother that she makes a fool out of herself when she’s been drinking.
His second nomination is for Luke A. His reasons for this nomination are that he doesn’t think Luke A does very much in the house and only speaks to a select few housemates. Arron doesn’t think the pair share much in common and states: ‘He spends most of his time in the smoking area – I don’t smoke.’
Ashleigh

Big Brother 2012: Chris James, Arron Lowe face eviction!

The first round of Big Brother 2012 nominations kicked off this afternoon, with Becky being called to the Diary Room.

This year the housemates have been allowed to discuss nominations which has led to plenty of game playing and tactics in the days and hours leading up to the vote.

Becky was one of the first to nominate, and after passing her secret task is immune from being nominated herself, the best position to be in!

After leaving the Diary Room, the other girls were quick to gang up on Becky to try and find out who she eventually voted for.

Arron Lowe

But the new housemate kept her cards close to her chest, telling them: “I knew like one going in there, but I didn’t know two..

“I don’t want to say, but it hasn’t changed.”

The results of the first Big Brother 2012 nominations are in, and two housemates face the vote.

Earlier today, all sixteen housemates nominated two people in the Diary Room for the first time.

Chris James

As a new housemate, and having passed her secret mission, Becky was immune from being nominated, but could still nominate.

In the end, it was Arron Lowe and Chris James who received the most votes and will face eviction this Friday.

Arron received five nominations while Chris attracted four votes from his fellow housemates.

The public lines will open tomorrow night, and the housemate who receives the fewest votes will be leaving the house!

Who do you want to go?

Big Brother Africa 2012: Namibia and South Africa up for nomination

This week, Namibia and South Africa are at Africa's mercy, after being randomly nominated during the Live Eviction Show.
 For the first time since StarGame began, two Housemates will be shipped off to snazzy Upville this coming Sunday.

 Lee, Junia, Keagan and Jesica will all be battling for Africa's vote as the race to the finale heats up. It is important to note that the two who will be upgraded to Upville do not need to be country pairs.
 This evening, the Housemates watched from their television in the Downville lounge as the random lottery balls bubbled in the selector. Although many of the Downvillers tried to play it cool as they awaited their fate, the fear in their eyes could not be hidden. When Junia and Jesica's country ball popped up, Jesica looked stunned.

Junia did not waste any time and broke down into a heap of tears. Keagan smiled uneasily then cracked a joke, while Lee quickly made a beeline for a cigarette. A cigarette for the pain?

Who will be Upgraded to Upville next week? Make your voice count by voting for your favourite Housemates!

Big Brother 2012 twist: Rebecca Hannon set secret nomination task!

Evil Big Brother has just set new housemate Rebecca Hannon a secret task ahead of Monday’s first nominations.
Rebecca won the public vote to join the house earlier this evening, exclaiming: “Mint! What the actual… I don’t even… I’m in complete shock.”
And thanking those that voted for her, Rebecca added: Just thanks so much, I’m actually in complete shock, just thank you. Thanks! I don’t know how to thank you enough.”
Big Brother however had a surprise in store.

Speaking to Becky in the Diary Room, BB told her: “Welcome to the Big Brother house, Becky.
You’d better start making friends. Housemates nominate on Monday, and as a new housemate you may be vulnerable.
“Big Brother is setting you a secret mission to become someone’s favourite housemate. In two days’ time, Big Brother will ask each of the housemates who their favourite is. If any of them name you, you’ll be immune from nominations.”
But there was more to come.
“However, if you’re still nobody’s favourite housemate, you’ll automatically face the public vote.”
So Becky could be finding herself facing eviction just a week after entering the house, harsh Big Brother, harsh!

Speaking before entering the house this evening, Rebecca said: “I’d get them all ship shaped, I’m a bit of bossy boots, I’m so strong willed, but don’t take things too seriously”
She added: “I’m a nosey bitch! But I can keep a secret.”
Rebecca entered the house via the Diary Room, again as a result of the weather outside of the house.
Screaming as she opened the Diary Room door, Rebecca headed straight past her new housemates and went to jump in the pool, much to the amusement of Caroline.

Big Brother 2012: First eviction, Victoria Eisermann is evicted

Victoria Eisermann has become the first housemate to be evicted from Big Brother 2012.
The 41-year-old had to leave via the Diary Room as a result of severe weather conditions at the house which meant that tonight’s live show had to be moved indoors.
In revealing the results, host Brian Dowling explained that Conor had received the most votes while Victoria was in the bottom two with Lydia.

The trio were put up for eviction on launch night by Deana as part of an opening night twist.
Speaking to Brian in the Bit On The Side studio this evening, Victoria said she felt “cheated” by being put up for eviction but ‘wasn’t bothered’ by leaving.
She said: “I feel cheated for the way it happened in the beginning. I just walked through the door and I was the last one that came in.
“But I’m not really that bothered that I’m the first one out.”
Meanwhile, back in the house, the other housemates speculated why Victoria had left via the Diary Room.
With the group unaware of the weather outside, with the garden locked and shutters down for live shows, they were quick to come up with conspiracy theories surrounding the exit.
