He said he's Rumanian but speaks five languages, Russian being one of them. Obviously, he doesnn't speak Russiam fluently, though. I dunno... can I say I speak six languages if I can cuss in German, Japanese, Spanish, French, and Italian?

See thats the thing, if he is Romanian then why all the bs about Soviets and Russia all the time. I think when he said he is Romanian he meant it as a pick up line for that girl he was talking to all night.

If you can cuss in all those languages then you speak all those languages lol.

Yeah, Kiersten, I wondered that, too. He's all "Soviets RULE!" all the time, but then he can't speak Russian? Seems he did speak Romanian better than Russian, yes? I think he works whatever angle he can and he definitely comes off as shady to me. Bleah.

Wasn't Romania part of the U.S.S.R? Which made him Russian back then and Soviet before the Soviet fell. To me he is still trying to find his own voice, his own place and trying to shake off the old USSR mentality. Russia as the USSR wanted Russian as the National Language. I met a few Ukrainians I went to school with and they spoke a little bit of Russian and they spoke Ukrainian fluently.

Dolphin, Romania was part of the 'Eastern Bloc' that was headed by the USSR - however - Romania was always more independent than some of the other 'satellite states.' Recall that Romania participated in the 1984 Olympics, which USSR boycotted.

Am I the only person that didn't know that André, Rachel, Pickel and Brett had a solid alliance? I must have missed an episode somewhere because that alliance took me by surprise.

Yea like the episode 1 week ago showed Andre, Pickel,Brett and Daniel? (the one that threw a hissy fit about having a challenge on his birthday) getting P.O.'d at VJ for having won that challege (and for all his "cheating" on the other challenges) and getting to put them in order for the "animal" challenge.

but when daniel?? left Rachel kind of took his place in the alliance to get VJ booted.

And I really thought it was unfair that VJ won the treadmill race b/c putting the weight on your arms and off the feet and legs is like taking a break in the middle of a race, not fair at all imo.

Ugh, I agree! I thought that Ben Stein was way off base calling Andre a whiner. VJ should have been dq'ed.

Ben stein never even looked up! I think its just that Andre complains so much they don't listen anymore! But your right it wasn't fair!

I get the vibe that Andre is a poser. Part of the Soviet rule was that all of the members learn Russian in school regardless of which of the Iron Curtain countries you lived. But Andre is young enough where that rule didn't exist anymore.

He definitely couldn't speak Russian even though he plays Russian boy to the hilt on the show.

I agree, Lifair, but for me he's still the most interesting character left.

Rehtse, me too....he's my favorite to watch. He entertains me big time....in a way thay only reality "stars" can. I'd LOVE for him to get a gig on Big Brother.

André is actually growing on me, even more so this past week when I saw how loyal he was to his alliance and how he was consoling Rachel.

I think he'd be hysterical to watch on BB.

I am still wanting Aussie Rachel to win for obvious reasons lol..

But, even though I did not like Andre at the beginning, he has grown on me

He would be hilarious to see on BB.. now that would be one season to really watch and enjoy.

I too liked how he is now mellowed out a little and in an alliance.

This is a spoiler for tonight's show (which aired earlier today). If you don't wanna know, don't click it! :-)

Unfortunately, Andre is in the finale! The Andre and Rachael won the edge challenge but failed miserably at the come-back challenge, as did Brett. Angela and VJ totally rocked the come-back challenge and were awarded a tie, meaning they both were guaranteed a slot in the finale. At the eviction, Rachael is purged first. Then, surprise surprise, there's another purge, and this time it's Brett going.

I actually have to laugh at how Andre performed this show. Which means, not much at all. And how his entire alliance just totally disappeared. Karma?
