The Housemates had a reminder of how tough life in M-Net’s Big Brother Amplified House is on Monday when they were forced to begin nominations again – after getting last week off, following the merge. Karen, Alex, Miss P, Sharon O and Weza are up for eviction this week after Head of House Karen sensationally refused to nominate anyone – and then didn’t use her ‘save & replace’ to alter the nominations.
Karen revealed her shock decision during her nomination session in the Chat Room earlier in the day. She told Big Brother that everyone deserves to take the money home and it was not up to her to make the decision on who leaves the House.
Miss P seems to be the victim of a plot amongst the ladies in the house as five of them nominated her for eviction. Luclay was the only guy to nominate her, saying it was nothing personal and he felt that she would “cope better†outside the House.
The ladies were all in agreement that Miss P had made an error in telling them that her dalliance with Alex was purely strategic. Sharon O said she never “clicked†with Miss P from day one, which made her decision simple.
Weza, who has had several disagreements with Miss P, said that trust was key and she felt Miss P broke that by using Alex as a pawn in her game.
Mumba had a lot to say about Miss P, but not a lot of it was positive. She labeled her as selfish and childish and berated her for not being herself.
Weza’s second nomination went to Millicent, but Millicent didn’t return the favour, choosing to nominate Kim and Alex instead.
Alex was the only male Housemate to nominate one of his fellow men he named Zeus as he is convinced that there’s an alliance amongst the men, which Zeus is leading.
Kim nominated Bernadina and the Namibian returned the favour, claiming that Kim was confusing her with her game plan.
Miss P nominated Mumba and Weza – and Mumba nominated her right back.
Vina nominated Zeus and Wendall, who shot the nomination right back at the Nigerian.
When the dust had settled, Miss P led the nomination chart with six, followed by Alex and Karen on 4 each, with Sharon O and Weza on three apiece.
