The show completely cut this storyline from broadcasts. On last night's live show, Chima brought it up, but producers shut off her mic.

In her speech, Chima also told host Julie Chen that Braden — who was up for elimination with Chima — called Julie a "whore." The vote came down to a tie, and Jessie chose to evict Braden. It made for a really awkward exit interview with the Chenbot. Usually she says something like, "Well, this isn't the end for you. We'll see you again at the finale in September." Instead she just said, "Braden, you're going home," then shook his hand and looked away.

Usually, the day after the eviction, Julie Chen interviews the evicted person on the Early Show. Interestingly, that did not happen today. The show briefly mentioned last night's eviction, but none of the dramz.

The incident Chima was referring to involved Braden calling two non-white house guests "beaners" earlier in the week. He also called Lydia a "slut" a "skank" and a "bitch." His misogynistic remarks were left in the actual broadcast, but the racial slur was eliminated all together. This is how the show edited it:


And this is how it really went down, via the live feed:


On Wednesday, I mentioned that Jessie was given a camera during his Diary Room session. He took pictures of himself bench-pressing Russell. The photos were posted to the CBS site.


He also took a picture of his calf.


And some bromance.


He's really into his muscles. You can check out the rest of the pics here.

LIVE FEED:
Spoilers, yo.

[All time stamps are EST]

Thursday Day
The live feed was shut off for the entire day as the house was getting ready for the live broadcast that evening.

Thursday Night
Shit went nuts after the live eviction and HoH competition. People were fighting in every room, and each time someone would try to escape one fight and move to another spot, another fight would erupt.

10:30-ish - Ronnie went into the recycling room and talked to Jessie, Russel, Natalie, and Lydia and said, "I was being fake to those guys [meaning everyone else] and sincere with you." Then he said he thought he would "shit his pants" after Chima's speech.

11:50 Casey confronted Ronnie about being aligned with the Athletes. Ronnie denied it up and down. Casey doesn't believe him and they start yelling.

Nobody knows why the vote came out in a tie. Someone is lying about how they voted (Ronnie) but no one can figure out who it is. This basically caused the house to erupt.

Laura yelled at Jessie for disrespecting her the night before. She said to him, "How would your mother like it when she sees you speak to a woman like that?" For some reason, everyone took this as Laura disrespecting Jessie's mother.

Lydia jumped in and stuck up for Jessie, and began screaming at Laura. The underlining issue is that they're mad that she voted Chima out. Eventually, Natalie, Kevin, Russell and Lydia all attacked Laura until she cried. (Jessie, the pussy willow that he is, didn't say anything.)


Ugh, Lydia seems like a total nightmare. I don't know if this is her game-play strategy, but she seems like the kind of girl who always puts dudes first. (Hence, fellating someone without any reciprocation or even a kiss on the mouth.)

Lydia and Jessie retreated to the recycling room, where she gave him a massage. He asked her which "high-profile" couple she nannies for. She wouldn't say, but began giving hints, explaining that they're "a really big deal" and work in music. But then BB cut off the live feed when she seemed like she was about to bend and tell him. (I think they always cut off the live feed when people begin using full names of those they know outside the house. This happened one night when Jordan was telling an anal sex story about a girl in her high school.)

I'm trying to think who would be a "really big deal" in music to Lydia. My guesses are:
1.) Nicole Richie and That Twin Guy
2.) Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale
3.) Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson

When the live feed returned, Lydia and Jessie were not an option to watch on one of the cameras.

Out on the patio, Laura said that the producers of BB probably "fish tanked" Chima's speech. She's not as stupid as Kevin thinks she is!

Jeff mentioned that he thinks the episode is going to be on The Soup. (Except he referred to it as Talk Soup.)

All of a sudden, the Big Brother voice broke in and says, "Lydia, stop that!" What the hell was she doing!?

Back at the kitchen table, Natalie and Chima got in a fight with first, Jordan, then Michele. Natalie is like a yippy, annoying-ass dog. She doesn't ever shut up, and logic doesn't apply to her. Her yammering is compulsive. She won't back off Michele.

Michele said that her vote to evict Chima was based on the fight they had the other night, when Chima accused her of leaving poop on the toilet seat. Natalie either doesn't believe that, or doesn't understand. (Probs the latter.) Michele eventually told Natalie that she doesn't like her. Natalie didn't understand this either (even though she's an ass to everyone except Jessie). She was incredulous over the news.


1:00 AM Ronnie got the key to his HoH room. No one really wanted to go up there and see it, since they were all fighting, but they reluctantly made their way up there.

Ronnie referred to himself as the HGIC—the "head geek in charge."

The CD that he got in his care package is Legally Blonde: The Musical.

Friday Morning
11:25 Everyone is sleeping. Lydia and Jessie are sharing a bed.

<![CDATA[Big Brother Recap: Why Are The Gay Slurs Edited Out Of Broadcasts?]]> Last night's episode featured a fight between Jeff and Russell. Live Feed viewers saw it three days ago. What's puzzling is that CBS entirely edited out the barrage of gay slurs Jeff hurled, instead of just bleeping them out.

For context, Jeff is the guy on the elliptical and Russell is the angry ball of muscles.


The version that was aired on CBS is above. Below is an unedited version from the Live Feed:


LIVE FEED:
I've subscribed to the live feed, and as promised, I have some dirt. None of the game play is revealed, but some dramz is included, so if you don't want to keep reading, then run. Run fast!

Monday Day
"Beaner" Gate - Braden called Kevin a "beaner." Kevin is not Mexican. Then Braden called everyone "beaners."

Monday Night
The roommates sat around outside, got drunk, and talked a lot about sex. We learned the following about Michele, the married woman in The Brains Clique:
She is bisexual.
She tosses her husband's salad (because they're married!).
She has a butt plug.
She's had a lot of one-night stands.
She and her husband fuck everyday.
She has sexy costumes.
She would be in a porno if the money was right.

I like her.

Tuesday Day
So the biggest thing that happened yesterday, as far as I'm concerned, was the "afternoon delight" shared by Jessie and Lydia. Shocking right? Meh, not really. For all her battle cries about how different she is, and for all her knowledge she likes to spew about British dialect, Lydia is faker and lamer than the four silicone bags attached to Jordan and Laura.

Lydia is the one who was most concerned about the whole high school theme, crying in the diary room, saying that people judge on appearances and she hates that. Oh, so she must've covered her body in tattoos and began a career as a makeup artist to help people get beyond her appearance.

Anyway, Jessie and Lydia were laying on the bed in the HoH room and built a blanket fort so they could fool around. I swear I could hear slurping sounds, but apparently the two didn't even kiss on the lips. They just fondled, and something went on with Jessie's "two fingers." Then Natalie, the Queen of the Cock Blocks, pounded on the door until they let her in. Lydia seemed pissed.


I edited the footage considerably, since it went on for a long time. At first I was shocked that Jessie appeared to be a selfless lover, going slowly, but he actually is just a giant wuss and she kept making the moves. Later on, Lydia talked about it to Kevin, who is by far my favorite. (Unfortunately, he's gotten a really boring, crappy edit on the show so far. He's always breaking the fourth wall and looks at the camera and rolls his eyes when his roommates say something stupid. They never keep that in the broadcasts, though.)


Tuesday Night
Something is wrong with Natalie's arm, so Jessie spent hours massaging it. He mentioned that it had something to do with a buildup of lactic acid, whatever that is. (Poisonous milk?)

The house guests all drank again and played a game of "Julie Says." (You know, instead of Simon Says.)

Later, Michele and Chima got in the fight. Someone left poop on the toilet seat and Chima thinks it's Michele.


Wednesday Day
Jessie was called to HoH room and given a digital camera. He had people take pictures of him bench pressing Russell. Then Jessie and Russell intently looked at the pictures of themselves, and remarked on how good their respective tans look.

Twitter
This season, the HoH gets to go on Twitter during Diary Room sessions, however, the HoH is only allowed to Tweet, and not read replies. Jessie, the first HoH this season, has been doing a bang-up job. My fave:

Young Gunz back on the sweet tweet!! Trying to finish my sandwich

Also, he refers to himself as "Mr. PEC-tacular" with variations on the spelling.

<![CDATA[Real Housewives: Danielle Takes Offense To Gay Slurs]]> Last night's episode was supposed to highlight Danielle's controversial past, but, after she took a stance against another cast member's husband for making a gay slur, she redeemed herself, demonstrating that one's present, not past, defines who they are.

Teresa's husband Joe decided that he wanted to take a dancing lesson, after getting into Dancing with the Stars. So Teresa organized a night out for everyone. During the evening, Joe made several gay slurs about the dance instructor, and Danielle called him out on it, later saying, "If you wanna do that thing that Italian guys do out here in Jersey, do it, but I'm taking offense by it."

<![CDATA[Norway Catches CokeHead Under Wig • Trans Woman Beaten By Cops In Memphis]]> A British woman was arrested in Norway after the police discovered coke under her wig. It seems the Norwegian police have learned to check hair for drugs after that whole Amy WInehouse debacle. • Conservative Virginians are nervous about the popularity of gay marriage, because if it can happen in a conservative stronghold like CA, it can happen anywhere! • Aw, Michelle Obama was "touched" by Laura Bush's defense of her reportedly "anti-American" remarks. • Wonderbra is looking for 1,000 big-breasted British babes to pose for an ad, and their "casting call" ad uses some confusing imagery for boobies. • China translates the names of popular dishes for restaurants to their "American" names during the Olympics, but what if I really wanted "Bean curd made by a pock-marked woman"? • Just throwing this out there, but, fighting a PC battle against a ubiquitous adjective like "crazy" is probably a lost cause. • A trans woman was held down and beaten by two Memphis cops after she objected to being called a "faggot" by one of the cops. One of the cops was fired and the other was suspended. • The US Post Office has released stamps honoring Charles and Ray Eames (you know, those chairs that are always drooled over at Apartment Therapy) the husband-and-wife design team. Dodai notes that Ray Eames was also a filmmaker! • A wedding-crazed couple plans on having five weddings over the space of nine months so their entire family can see them getting married! • Elda Beguinua is being tried for fraud after she pretended to have a $500 million fortune as a Philippine contessa and tried to trick people out of loaning her money. One man was tipped off when he was asked to be her "world ambassador."
