Big Brother 11: Ronnie 'The Rat' Wins HOH

Was last night a dream? Did it really happen? Ronnie 'The Rat' is the new Head of Household? I want to vomit every time I think about it.

The show itself was rather ho-hum until it came time for Braden and Chima to plead their cases to their fellow houseguests before the voting took place. Braden sounded sincere while Chima was just plain pitiful. The diva needed her drama queen moment and she got it. She reminded everybody of Braden's calling Kevin a beaner and Julie Chen a whore.

I can't believe that Chima actually thought that CBS would let that get through. She must have forgotten that just because it's a live show doesn't mean that there's not a delay. After being called to the diary room last night, Chima informed some of the others that Big Brother told her it was bleeped out for the show. And she was upset about that! That girl really needs to check herself.

After Jessie broke the 5-5 tie and voted Braden out, it was time for the HOH competition. I was hoping (like many of you) that another one of the athletes wouldn't win it. I also didn't want Ronnie to win it. But lo and behold, The Rat pulled it out. Nooooo!!!!! A lot of people are blaming Casey for not getting Ronnie out. If you'll remember, Casey finished out the athletes clique by getting rid of Jeff rather than eliminating Ronnie or Jordan.

I completely understand why he did it. If Jeff had gone on to win the HOH competition, Russell, Natalie, or Jessie wouldn't be able to be nominated this week. So Casey took a chance and it wound up not working out - at least not for everybody who didn't want Ronnie to go on and win Head of Household.

When the feeds came back on after the show, it was ear-splitting. That's because Natalie and Chima were screaming at Michele in front of everybody. And when I say screaming I mean screaming. They were going on and on about Michele voting to keep Braden instead of her own clique-mate. Chima and Michele eventually hugged and made up but Natalie 'The Gnat' was still going on about it to anybody that would listen.

One good thing that happened on the feeds last night is that both sides realized it was Ronnie who's been playing the mole role. Jessie and his bunch realized it in the recycling room but decided for now to let it slide because Ronnie's helping them out. They just know now they might need to watch what they say in front of him. Laura and Jordan figured The Rat out on their end and let the word spread. Hell, Ronnie even told Laura and Jeff later in the HOH room that there was a rat in the house and they need to figure out who it would be. Haha! Of course, they didn't let Ronnie know that they (and the rest of the house) were on to him.

In a perfect world, I would love to see everybody in the house turn their back on Ronnie. I wonder who Ronnie would put on the block if he had no alliances in the house and they all hated him. I can dream I guess.

Ronnie got his HOH room last night and what was in his HOH basket was hilarious! Among other things, he got a bubble wand, a CD of the soundtrack to Legally Blonde (the movie instead of the musical like he'd wanted), a letter from his wife, some hot dog sauce (yes you read that correctly), some Smirnoff Ice, and Play-Doh. Oops, Big Brother wants him to call it modeling clay due to trademark issues. The look of glee that went over his face was shocking. He even tweeted about his excitement later on with this little gem, "When I get out of the Diary Room I am going straight to my HoH room to play games with my modeling clay!"

Yeah, that's pretty sad isn't it? What a week it's going to be. Especially with Natalie following Lydia and Jessie everywhere. Speaking of, Natalie is asleep on the floor right below where Jessie and Lydia are bunked up. I guess she doesn't want to miss Jessie's massaging later.

Remember what Julie Chen said about Dan, the winner of Big Brother 10, surprising the houseguests for Sunday's show? I'm betting he'll have something to do with the Have and Have Nots competition that will be held today. I can't wait to find out who the next inhabitants of the steel cage are going to be. Please let it be the athletes! Also, nominations will occur later this afternoon. I believe Ronnie will probably nominate Laura and Casey.

What did you think about the first live show of the season last night? What are your thoughts about how things are going in the house? Who do you want to lose the Have and Have Nots competition and who do you think Ronnie will nominate for eviction? I can't wait to read your comments!
