If there is ANY justice in the world, in a few hours time Sam & Amanda (aka: Samanda) will be crowned the winners of UK Big Brother 2007. For this spectacular moment alone.
Twins for the win. "Defo."
I shall be trying to steer clear of the internet until I download the finale... I'd like to be surprised as to what the results are. I'll most likely steer clear of emails and most websites until I've seen the very last second.
So Chanelle, by far my favourite contestant in the UK Big Brother compound this year, has left the house. I am completely distressed and honestly feel like her time was cut way too short, and her foolish decision to leave is one she will regret in the future. Don't even get me started on how much I hate Ziggy right now, bitch PLEASE.
To commemorate the many wondrous/iconic/hilarious times Chanelle provided us in the Big Brother house during her stay, I've put together a collection of must-see YouTube clips of her finest diary room entries. I LOVE YOU CHANELLE!
Chanelle's finest diary room moment EVER.
Chanelle is worried about genital herpes.
Unfit, fat and cold.
Gold, from the 1 minute mark.
Not. Happy. Jan.
Sangrias in Spain. This is very good.
"When you feel that you can manage it..."
Emergency food supply... takes a few minutes but is very much worth the wait.
Chanelle questions whether Charley knows the true meaning of the word "honest."
From the 1:50 mark... fucking genius. "Shit just constantly flies out of her mouth and..."
After an argument about hair straighteners with racist cunt Emily. "I can't help it if..."
I really cannot help feeling that her relationship with Ziggy has ruined the whole experience for the both of them. Could you imagine how much MORE brilliance we would have gotten out of her had they not hooked up? And Ziggy's probably a really nice guy and not the absolute pig-fucker I think he is, but what can you do about it now?
Well last week 2005 Big Brother contestant Vesna and I sat down and recorded our very first video Snatchcast. In comparison to the audio Snatchcast's it's short, but there is visual delight AND an exclusive with Vesna's new hair colour; so whatever we lack in time, we make up for in aesthetics. And--double bonus--the only part of me which is visible are my eyes and nose towards the very end! You can download the video in reasonably high quality from Vesna's MySpazz page, or you can just view it via the craptacular ways of YouTube.
Thursday, June 21, 2007 BBUK's Liam epitomises everything that is good and decent about life.
AND YOU KNOW I'M RIGHT.
Where on EARTH of have they plucked this LOVELY YOUNG MAN FROM? Isn't he just DIVINE? Not only is he ridiculously wonderful to watch in a wifebeater, he's also incredibly charming and full of nice manners. Can we clone him? I need one of these here in Australia, whether it be in the Oz Big Brother house or MY house. Did you see him crying after he won the £100,000 prize giveaway? WAS THIS NOT COMPLETELY ADORABLE?! Did you not want to hug him, stroke his hair and FONDLE EVERY INCH OF HIS BODY? It surely cannot just be me who feels this way.
The best thing about Liam winning the £100,000 is that the rest of the housemates THINK he's won the actual shows prize money. So now there might be a few more upsets within the house - possibly some shifts in personality? Isn't it all very exciting!? Sitting through two nights of the Australian Big Brother is torture for me now, especially knowing that the kitchen sink in the UK house has more personality than any of the people left in the Oz house.
Let's talk Charley. I hate the woman but I'll be disappointed when she goes. She's ah-mah-zhing to watch. I have a feeling she may think she's this years Nikki, which is ridiculous because not only did I enjoy watching Nikki, but I actually LIKED her. Whilst Charley may be an absolute riot to watch, I do hate her with a hefty amount of passion. Regardless, I'm happy she's not up for nominations again this week. I have a feeling there's even more classic moments to spew forth from Charley's mouth/arse like an incredibly forceful spray of gastro.
I'm still enjoying Carole & Nicky, regardless of their whinging. As for the new guys, I'm enjoying Brian - he seems quite lovely, I don't *really* need to form an opinion of Jonathon seeing as he is most definitely going for Friday's eviction, and as for Billi? Aside from appearing in Jamelia's "Beware Of The Dog" video clip, I'm not really sure what his purpose on earth actually is. Maybe I'll find out later in the week.
THE TWINS. I cannot believe I am about to say this BUT... I AM QUITE LIKING HAVING THEM AROUND. Dear Mr Hotstufffiles, you were right, they are brilliant! I've gone from despising them, to loving them SICK. They have also infiltrated YouTube in the form of a dance song. Let's take a look the video clip which is an easy contender for Song Of The Year. To quote Not Another Teen Movie, those bitches represent.
Barbie's, Pink, WOO!
Chaniggy: I adore them. They make such a sweet couple do they not?! I'm still finding Ziggy rather charming even if he has gotten uglier as the weeks roll on. There's just something about him I find quite delectable. And as for Chanelle, excuse me, weren't the suspenders she had on for eviction night FARKING HAWT?
Obviously though, my favourite is most definitely Liam, and very special thank you to Paul for allowing me to indulge in this new attraction through The Zapping as well. At this present stage (though it's too early to say), he's who I want to win the actual competition... Just to rub it in Laura's face. She'd just HATE it if he walked away with £200,000 at the end of it all, wouldn't she?
Thursday, June 14, 2007 Vesna's Second Ever Podcast
SNATCHCAST #02 IS HERE!
Vesna & I spent a portion of last night giggling/screaming as we recorded our second Snatchcast together. What is a Snatchcast I hear you ask? Because I'm not the biggest fan of repeating myself, you can just read my previous post introducing the whole Snatchcast thing here.
NOW. Episode #02 is online and ready to be downloaded. And with very gulp-sized thanks to Tim at the fucking ace BehindBigBrother.com, we now have PROPER server space for you to download the podcasts each week, rather than going through Megaupload or Rapidshare.
In this weeks riveting audio number, Ves & I discuss the new batch of intruders in the Australian Big Brother, whether she's still in contact with Hotdogs, her feelings on Big Brother's treatment toward ex-housemates, and the latest saga involving her Vagina.
For next weeks snatchcast, we're giving YOU the opportunity to ask Vesna a question. If you wish to have a question submitted, simply email it to:
We'll try and get through as many of your questions in the next weeks podcast as possible. But if not, we'll spread a few out here and there through other upcoming episodes. If you'd like to read more, you can visit Ves' latest blogpost on her MySpazz.
Would you believe I plan on spending my ENTIRE WEEKEND* BLOGGING?! From Friday there will be a review of the McFlyMotion In The Ocean Tour DVD, UK Big Brother chat, another Vesna Snatchcast, my long-overdue scribblings on the Australian Next Top Model final, and - time permitting - something else.
In the meantime, let's admire this photograph of Dermot O'Leary resting on a pillow.
Barely into week 2 of the UK Big Brother journey and some serious controversy has seen the lover of "new music" trend 'Indie', Emily, ejected from the house.
Before I discuss what she actually did to have herself removed, let's take a look at one of the more exciting moments week 2 of the Australian Big Brother house provided us:
Inside Emma, TJ, Travis and Andrew taste the chickpeas Emma cooked. "They're a great little snack - with salt they are almost as good as chips," says Andrew.
Gripping. I'm sure my International readers are absolutely kicking themselves they are missing out on such quality, Australian made reality television.
Now, compare THAT conversation, with the one which, also from week 2 - but this time in the UK - saw Emily booted from the Big Brother house last night at 3:30AM...
(To JavineCharley - a lady of colour - whilst dancing) "You pushing it out you nigger."
Followed by...
"Don't make a big thing out of it, I was only joking."
...............
Obviously I am not implying there is anything great or awesome about being a racist pig, but, you know, some actual controversy that didn't involve someone's Dad dyingprobably wouldn't do any harm to the Australian Big Brother's ratings, would it? I don't want someone on there to throw around racial slurs, but how about actually putting some interesting people in the house so as we may be guaranteed some actual entertainment? The two interesting people - Bodie & Demet - were booted out early on, leaving us with an entire house of incredibly dull blondes, bimbos, biceps. Oh and of course, the Mormon and the annoying/fatal attraction-esque geek. For the first time in, well, forever, I am actually beginning to think that Home & Away would be a more pleasing ritual. I know.
Within 8 days the UK Big Brother has already managed to provide more entertainment, excitement, enjoyment and more watchable-bitchiness than we have seen in 47 days of the Australian one. Within 1 WEEK of the UK Big Brother beginning there has been more to talk about than the last 7 WEEKS the Australian one has provided. (Granted, when the censors 'forgot' to beep out Bodie's use of the word "cunt" during a 7pm family time slot, was pretty priceless.)
I would also hate to say this, but there is every possible chance that UK Big Brother host, Davina McCall, is actually a smidge better than our lovely Gretel Killeen, who regular readers will know I worship quite unhealthily.
I have virtually given up on the Australian Big Brother. For the first time in 7 years (I've enthusiastically watched every single episode since the first series in 2001), I am so uninterested that I've only been watching eviction night, and the first five minutes of Nominations night, only to see what Gretel is wearing.
Don't cry for me fellow readers. The truth is, I don't even miss it. I'm not even sad about it. After last years terrible series, it's almost as if I somehow broke up with it then. Isn't that pathetic? I broke up with a TV show! What is even more pathetic is that it took me almost a full year to realise. My thirst for watching a bunch of idiots caged in a house has not dampened, for I now have Davina to keep me warm at night. Last year I dabbled in daily youtube clips of the UK Big Brother ("I'M! SO! COLLLLLLLLLLLLLLD!!!" "Who IS SHE?! WHO. IS SHE?!!!"), and read the online diaries quite obsessively. This year, I'm just downloading the whole lot and forcing all of my friends to watch it with me instead of the Australian one. We already have our favourites, are already messaging each other with daily thoughts on our new British friends, and are wishing now more than ever that we actually lived over there.
I possibly doubt this will be my last UK Big Brother related post. But don't panic, I do plan on talking about some music over the next few days, particularly McFly, Madge and some other tidbits.
