The weight of Nominations has fallen back into the hands of the HMs but that means the choice of who ultimately stays or goes is now up to Australia.
The House dynamic has been turned on its head!
The HMs voted for Alice, Brigitte and Bianca to be Evicted. Realising her HMs weren’t enamored with her, Brigitte has been Lady Lovely all day. Alice has been shattered, fighting off tears and Bianca, still reeling from last night’s blow up over breasts, just seems angry. The three Nominees have a long week ahead but, luckily for one of them, there is a twist in store!
First let’s see where the HMs targeted their Nomination arrows.
Bianca was the first HM to Nominate and not surprisingly, Alice copped her two Nominations points after the events of last night. “I think she is over controlling, overbearing. I think that she’s playing the game to an extent. She tries to keep everybody happy and she’ll only have a confrontation when she’s backed up by somebody stronger than her,” Bianca fumed. She threw one point in Terri’s direction, although she saw their argumentative similarities, Bianca didn’t like Terri’s unsubstantiated arguments. She felt although her own opinions were based on hard facts, yet Terri’s were purely based on emotion - and this was punishable by Nomination.
Showing his dedication to the menagerie of males in the House, Rory wanted to wave goodbye to Brigitte and Terri. “For two points I nominate Brigitte,” Rory told BB. “I find her to be very annoying. Some of the stuff that comes out of her mouth is very immature.” Terri he could do without as well. “I do get along with her but at the same time I just don’t have much in common with her,” Rory voiced, landing Terri with another Noms point.
Next in the Nomination chair was Nanna Terri herself. Renee was the source of Terri’s frustration and for that honour she received two Nomination points. “In the last couple of weeks her loud, aggressive nature has really been getting on my nerves. She just talks non stop at the top of her voice over the top of everyone all the time,” Terri said of the abattoir worker form Dubbo. She fired one point at Nobbi due to their argument last night. “I thought he was very rude to me in front of the new intruders,” Terri reasoned.
Next up to hit the Diary Room chair was Head of House Renee. “I believe that she’s narrow minded … she only sees her side of the story, it’s her way or no way. It’s like talking to a brick wall,” relayed Renee about Bianca, who was the recipient of her two Nomination points. “I feel like she tries to challenge me a lot … she’s either got to match me or beat me,” Renee explained to BB. Brigitte copped Renner’s one point. Why? “Because we’ve got nothing in common,” she reasoned. Though Renee had found some common ground with Brigitte she said she could easily live without her hot and cold mood swings.
Ben targeted his two points at Alice. “I don’t like how controlling and domineering she is,” he told BB. Ben believed he didn’t need another mother and didn’t like Alice exerting any authority over him. Brigitte also received one point from Ben, this time for her harsh insults. Ben didn’t support Brigitte putting people down for their physical flaws.
What did Bridge have to stay about it all? Brigitte raised Ben’s one point and fired her two Nomination points straight back in his direction. Brigitte said of Ben, “I don’t like some of the comments that come out of his mouth towards me.” Ben’s slagging off of her hometown of Canberra didn’t sit well with Brigitte. “I just don’t like him, I don’t want him in here,” she declared. “I want to give one point to Nobbi,” Brigitte disclosed. She felt Nobbi constantly picked on her. “I’m just sick of him,” Brigitte surmised.
Alice was more than happy to slam B with two Nomination crosses. Bianca’s constant sensitivity and the way she over reacted to confrontation caused Alice to tip toe around her. She described Bianca as ‘defensive’ and ‘pessimistic’ and did not enjoy having her in the House. “For one point this week I Nominate Travis … I find that having a normal conversation can be difficult,” Alice informed BB. She explained that she struggled talking to Travis because although he is positive, his narrow minded views annoyed her.
It was Alice who was the source of Nobbi’s frustration and received his two Nomination points. “I feel as though she doesn’t contribute to any entertainment value in the House,” Nobbi proclaimed. He believed Alice was over cautious and strategic in her actions and therefore, he didn’t trust her. One point Nobbi sent straight back at Terri because they simply have never seen eye to eye. He revealed that for some strange reason he likes having her in the House, he enjoys “taking the piss out of her,” but still holds a grudge against her for relegating him to the Kombi.
Two marks were put against Brigitte’s name from Travis because she turned on him as a friend in the week of the dancing task. Travis told BB although she was nice sometimes at other points she was very rude to him and he didn’t expect that from someone who was once a very good friend. Renee received one cross from Travis because he felt as though he frustrated her and didn’t like how she dealt with it.
The points were tallied and it was Alice, Bianca and Brigitte who HMs wanted to see in the Hot Seat come Sunday night. But BB had something up his sleeve. Dixie’s Housemate Hand Grenade would change it all…
