Live Evictions and a New HOH crowned

The fact that Alex did not campaign to stay in the house did not make a difference in my opinion. They were put up on the block this week and were THE target. If they had won POV and taken themselves off the block then Matt and Natalie would have been the next best choice. Matt did campaign but again I don't think it really mattered. If he and Natalie had been the main targets then they would have been the ones to go regardless of what promises they made.

There was a moment when Allison talked to Ryan and some of the other HG's that maybe Natalie and Matt should be the ones to go. Reasoning that they might be the stronger couple next week having been on real food vs Amanda and Alex who had been on slop and Amanda falling ill. James said he had no problem with Operation Bro-down (take out Matt and Natalie then next week go after Amanda and Alex). They all seem to go back and forth all week long. But ultimately stick to their original plan "Operation Condor" and cast a unanimous vote to evict Amanda and Alex.

I am a bit sad by this. I liked A&A a lot better than M&N. Was the right choice made? Not sure. They did accomplish one good thing and that was breaking up a potentially house dominating alliance. I think Chelsia and James better watch out though. I hope they are able to avoid being kicked off. They have become my fav couple in the house.

Alex and Amanda were not-surprisingly upset. Alex said he kept it real and kept his word but your word means nothing in the house. And takes part of the blame for the eviction. Which was nice to hear since he had been so outspoken about Amanda being 100% at fault for them being nominated. I am sad to see them go.

The HOH comp was all about the love poems found around the house. Luckily for Joshuah and Sharon they had spent some time memorizing and studying all the poems around the house and they got all the questions correct without much opposition from anyone else. As the new HOH I have no clue who they are going to target. Should be interesting. My picks for the next nominations would be Matt and Natalie & Sheila and Adam.

Julie mentioned something at the closing of the show about a new chapter starting. The next evicted HG's are in for a big surprise. Have no clue what this is but I can hardly wait and hope it is something scandalous.
