(
S10E18) "Anything else I could do for you, I would do for you." -April to Dan
Once again,
Dan the Man with the Master Plan is the swing vote at eviction time. Renny nominated April and Jerry on Sunday, her target being April from Arizona. However, Dan has no personal reason to evict her. In fact, if Dan was playing the game strictly listening to his personal feelings, he should evict Jerry who called him a "Judas" last week and said that he "hides behind his cross." Furthermore, April offered Dan, the PoV holder, money on Tuesday before the ceremony.
Okay, what am I missing? Oh yeah, it's that April is a kick-butt player in the
Big Brother 10 house who will pick them off one-by-one with her showmance Ollie at her side.
Find out what went down and who went home after the jump...

The eviction ceremony just aired over here in California. We left the houseguests as they stood on the edge of a big fake wall as if they were about to jump to their deaths off the ledge of a building.
And of course, obsessive as I am, I tuned in to ShoToo for
Big Brother After Dark directly after the show. I have spoilers to share.

Earlier this week we told you about the
Big Brother controversy, when a contestant, Adam, referred to autistic individuals as "retards," and how John Gilmore of advocacy group Autism United, had demanded an apology from the network. Now comes word that his group's influence has resulted in a major advertiser, Lowe's,
pulling its commercials from
Big Brother.
Lowe's Karen Cobb
explained to
Adweek, "Once it was brought to our attention, we decided not to advertise [on
Big Brother] further." During the February 13 episode, a Lowe's commercial did air, but according to Ms. Cobb, Lowe's does not routinely advertise on this reality show and will not in the future.

Perhaps it wasn't an interview. I'd say it was a Jenterview. Yeah, that's perfect!
AOL's TV Tattler recently interviewed the last houseguest evicted from the
Big Brother 8 house -- Jen Johnson.
You can say what you want about Jen. You can like her or hate her. But everyone has to admit she's surely a character. She boasts of being a bikini model and the nanny for Vanna White's children. She's Jen to the Jenth Degree!
I want to delve a bit into the interview at hand and give my two cents on it. Want to join me? After the jump ...

Every week AOL's
The TV Tattler will have an exit interview with the most recently evicted houseguest from
Big Brother 8. Being the fan of the show and its live feeds that I am, I feel the need to not only share a bit of the latest interview, but add in my own two cents as I do!
The shock at his eviction last week on the show was as real as we're ever going to see on reality television. He surely thought he had it all in the bag, didn't he?
Let's see what he had to say in
his exit interview ...
