Beau? Who dat?
The Invisible Man of 'Big Brother 6', Beau Beasley, disappeared completely out of the house on tonight's not-so live special eviction broadcast. Beau, who stayed under the radar most of the series and probably had less air time than host Julie Chen, was kicked by The Disciples Alliance who were forced to pick between him and his official partner, Ivette Corredero.
Beau's expulsion put the nail in the coffin of this year's secret partnership twist, as there are no official couples left. Unless the producers alter the rules, no one now has a chance at winning the special 1 million dollar prize. Before the season had begun, the producers announced that the players were actually pairs who knew each other in the outside world and if one team could end up being the last two people in the house, the winner would take home 1 million dollars and the second place finisher $250,000. The producers stated that if a twosome did not make it to the final two, the winner of 'Big Brother 6' would score $500,000.
In his interview on the Couch of Shame with Julie Chen, Beau stated that he didn't regret voting out James Rhine rather than Howie Gordon who eventually nominated him for eviction this week.
"You have to do what you have to do when business is on the line. Business is business and you have to do what is best for you and your group. Sometimes it bites you in the butt but you gotta do what you gotta do. I am not regretful for what I have done in the house at all," said Beau.
"She has an amazing chance of getting to the end. She has an amazing knowledge of the game. She plays it with her heart. She plays it with strategy as well so it is going to take her far," Beau said of his partner, Ivette. Beau is now the fourth member of the 'Big Brother 6' jury.
The not-so "special guest" hyped at the end of Thursday's episode was revealed to be none other than the highly irritating 'Big Brother 5' HouseGuest Holly King. She hosted the crapshoot Veto Competition won by Maggie Ausburn. Maggie waffled about using the Power of Veto to the point of telling new alliance mate April Lewis that she might end up being nominated if Maggie elected to save Ivette. The news brought the habitual crier to tears. In the end, Maggie did not use the Veto and left Howie's nominations intact.
As part of another double eviction week, a second Head of Household was crowned. In a shamelessly biased competition, it was Ivette who brought home the victory for the Disciples during a tiebreaker round against Maggie. The majority of questions asked by Chen during the challenge favoured the Disciples in some fashion based on the everyday conversations held over the course of the season on the 24/7 live Internet feeds.
As part of another double eviction week, CBS blacked out the 24/7 Internet feeds from the house from Friday afternoon until Sunday morning to keep the happenings of Saturday's broadcast under wraps. Ivette's nominations will air on Tuesday's broadcast. Unless alliances change in the house, it is likely that the last two Outcast Alliance members - Howie Gordon and Janelle Pierzina - will be targeted for the big boot by The Disciples.
