Big Brother Recap: Who Got Evicted? Who Won HOH?

The latest episode of Big Brother kicked off with Rachel Swindler and Brett Robinson on the block for eviction.

Rachel was confident that she would be staying in the house. The reason?

Because her allies told her she was safe. While it would be normal to expect your allies to keep you safe, we need to remember that Rachel was on the block with her fellow ally. 

Rachel worried about being on the block next to Brett, while Tyler was in the HOH room pledging allegiance to Bayliegh. 

In the Diary Room, however, he was saying that he would keep Bayliegh keen until he managed to flush her Power App out of the game. 

Brett got to work on Tyler, saying that the men are becoming extinct in the house and that if the rumors about the all-female alliance are correct, the men could be next. 

Meanwhile, Scottie, Bayliegh Haleigh, Faysal, and Rockstar had a chat and confirmed to each other that Tyler was a vote for their side and that they would not be blindsided on Thursday night. 

Tyler turned to Brett to fill him in on Bayliegh’s power and what it could mean for the future of the game. Brett resolved to use the news to his advantage ahead of the eviction. 

Brett then got in the hammock with Haleigh and tried everything he could to get her vote. She lied, saying that she would be keeping him in the game. 

While that was going down, Faysal walked around the house and kept checking to make sure Brett and Haleigh were not kissing or something. 

It was ridiculous. He was acting as though he owned Haleigh and that she was going against him by speaking with another houseguest. 

Haleigh was open with Brett about there being no showmance between her and Faysal, so it’s going to be fun to see how that pans out. 

We then took a trip outside the house to watch Swaggy C make his way to Bayliegh’s family home to meet them for the first time. 

It went well, and he could be calling them his family if he and Bayliegh can make it work outside the house. The family and Swaggy agreed that Tyler was the one to watch. 

At the live eviction, Rachel was positive in her approach when addressing her fellow houseguests, telling them to vote with their heart and that if she can benefit them, she will try her best. 

We wish we could say the same for Brett, but he went for the jugular. He said that Rachel was the ringleader of a female alliance that was intent on taking the men out of the house. 

He went on to expose Bayliegh’s power, but he made sure to say that it was for “next week.” 

These losers are going to think Rachel was lying all along when Bayliegh refuses to use it. 

• RS votes to evict: Brett 

• Angela votes to evict: Rachel 

• Kaycee votes to evict: Rachel 

• Scottie votes to evict: Brett 

• Tyler votes to evict: Rachel 

• Sam votes to evict: Rachel 

• Faysal votes to evict: Brett 

• JC votes to evict: Rachel 

• Haleigh votes to evict: Brett

Rachel was evicted by a vote of 5-4!

Rachel stormed out of the house as soon as the vote was announced. She was blindsided. In her eviction interview with Julie, she struggled to keep it together. 

Angela’s eviction speech was especially surprising, calling Rachel out for acting crazy since Week 2. 

The HOH competition focused on GIFs the houseguests got to see in the house. Angela won the competition!

Before we left the house for the night, Julie said that the next twist would allow the houseguests to hack the game and that we will get more intel on it on Sunday. 

Well, that was a wild night!

What did you think of it?

Big Brother continues Sunday on CBS.

Tim Allen Defends Roseanne Barr, Asks Very Dumb Question About Comedian"s Firing

Tim Allen just doesn’t understand.

Speaking Thursday at the Television Critics Association’s press tour, the veteran actor basically asked those in attendance was simple question:

Can’t someone just be overtly racist in public without suffering consequences in this country?!?

Allen spoke on the topic of Roseanne Barr’s firing by ABC with journalists at the aforementioned gathering, with his remarks generating both headlines and many raised eyebrows.

(Barr, of course, was let go by the network and had her revived sitcom canceled after she referred to an African-American political advisor as an “ape.”)

“I go away back with Rosie and that’s not the Rosie I know,” Allen said, expounding about his friend and her situation as follows:

“She was the most diverse and tolerant woman I’ve ever known for a long time. Whatever got in her head, isn’t the Roseanne I know.”

Allen then expressed sympathy and shock for the ways of the world, especially when it comes to supposedly funny people who dare to utter controversial statements.

“It’s a very icy time. I’m a veteran comedian for 38 years and I’ve never seen it, like Lenny Bruce said at the Purple Onion, ‘We’ve gone backwards.’ There are things you can’t say. There are things you shouldn’t say.

“Who makes up these rules? And as a stand-up comic, it’s a dangerous position to be in because I like pushing buttons. It’s unfortunate.”

Who makes up these rules?

We can answer that ridiculous inquiry, Tim.

In Roseanne’s case, ABC executies made up the so-called “rules.”

Roseanne was an employee who was fired by her employer for actions the latter deemed inappropriate and/or actions it felt no longer made her a worthwhile employee.

It’s that simple.

People get fired from their jobs everday. Roseanne is just one of those people.

Allen is one of the few outspoken Republicans in Hollywood.

In May of 2017, he said he was “stunned” by the cancelation of the sitcom on which he starred, Last Man Standing, hinting strongly that he thinks it was yanked off the air due to his Conservative views.

(It has ran for six seasons at the time and ratings had been falling for years.)

Allen also once compared life in Hollywood for a Republican to life in Nazi Germany for Jewish people.

He’s back in the news now because FOX has actually brought back Last Man Standing, hoping it finds a similarly impressive audience to the one Roseanne enjoyed before the network axed that show’s comeback.

As for Barr?

She has oscillated between being regretful for her actions and blaming others for taking them out of context.

She recently swore to Sean Hannity that she is not racist and she has received support from non-Tim Allen celebrities as well.

“Roseanne Barr is my sister in comedy and she is my universal sister and what I won’t do… is throw her away for making a mistake,” Mo’Nique told KTLA last Friday, July 27, adding at the time:

“We’ve all said and done things, baby, that we wish we could take back… but when you’re in the public eye, you can’t.

Said Barr to Fox News the day before that:

“I’ve apologized a lot. It’s been two months. I’ve apologized and explained and asked for forgiveness.”

Oh, well, if it’s been two months… nevermind then!

All automatically gets forgiven after 60 days, right?

Rick Genest Commits Suicide; Lady Gaga Mourns Death of Music Video Co-Star

Rick Genest, a model best known to music fans for his appearance in Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way” video, was found dead in his Montreal home on Wednesday.

He was 32 years old.

According to local reports, the Canadian model took his own life, although no further details are available at this time.

In a message on Facebook, Genest’s management company said he “was loved by all those who had the chance to meet him and know him.”

Translated from French, this is what the message reads:

The whole dulcedo family is shocked and pained by this tragedy. Zombie boy, Rico, was loved by all those who had the chance to meet him and know him. Icon of the artistic scene and the fashion world, this innovator, against popular culture, has been able to charm all hearts.

We received the unfortunate news at the beginning of the afternoon and members of the team have come to support his family and relatives in this dark and difficult moment.

We want to present our deepest condolences and the legend will survive human.

Thank you zb for these beautiful moments in your company and for your radiant smile.

Lady Gaga, meanwhile, who has spoken out often about her own struggles with mental health and about the challenges others face in this area, also paid tribute to Genest on Instagram.

T”he suicide of friend Rick Genest, Zombie Boy is beyond devastating,” the artist wrote, adding:

“We have to work harder to change the culture, bring Mental Health to the forefront and erase the stigma that we can’t talk about it. If you are suffering, call a friend or family today.

“We must save each other.”

The singer subsequently added two other messages along these same sad lines:

FIRST:

Kindness and mental health aren’t one time practices. They aren’t just to do list items.

This fall, in partnership with @btwfoundation, I’ll explore the power of habits to build cultures of kindness and wellness.

SECOND:

Science tells us that it takes 21 days to form a habit, if you are suffering from Mental Health issue I beckon for today to be your first day or a continuation of the work you’ve been doing.

Reach out if you’re in pain, and if you know someone who is, reach out to them too.

Genest holds a Guinness World Record for the most insect tattoos on his body (a total of 176), as well as another record for the most human bone tattoos at 139.

Prior to his passing, Genest was involved with the Home Depot Canada Foundation, an organization that aims to bring awareness to youth homelessness.

Per iHeartRadio, Genest found work as a model after being featured in the Gaga’s aforementioned music video, modeling for magazines such as GQ, Vanity Fair, and Vogue Hommes.

May he rest in peace.
