Phooey sums it up..I really wanted John to lose and I'm not sure he didn't. He had all that extra to dump over his head. Did Holly have as much or was she half a second slower cause she actually drank it ALL??? I wonder if she really should have won based on that!

Hi Lurknomore, I missed the last glass because I flipped channels and didn't want to see Holly lose, ( she is just too cute). Did John have liquid left in his glass to dump over his head?? Didn't anyone seem to notice this? Strange, and unfair.

Hey Jgalt! Yup the dumped it on his head like championship champagne!! And btw it was SOOO close the hosts couldn't tell who won and they had to look at the tape to see who had the glass down by a fraction of a second sooner. That's why it would be SOOO unfair IMHO if she didn't have residue on her glass cause it meant he didn't finish drinking all before slamming said glass down by that split second sooner!!!! I want to see it again to check that out, not that I would expect NBC to do a damn thing, but it's so annoying. I really wish Holly stayed almost as much as I wanted John to GO!

I just watched it and it appeared John picked up Holly's glass and poured what was left from her glass into his, drank the last drink, and then let it drip onto his head. I think the last drink was so thick they probably both had residue in their glass. Bummer. I wanted Holly to stay. Interesting moment for John in finding out he got the least votes. Somehow I don't think he'll realize he lost votes based on his bossiness around camp.

Yeah, I think John did that to show that he definitely won that last round. Kind of gloating. I split my votes between Lou and Sanjaya. Torrie used to get some of my votes, but she's gotten on my nerves a bit in the last few shows. All that positive/negative energy stuff just bugs me. She's a bit too whiny. And there's no way she gained 9 pounds of muscle. Actually, I was starting to get annoyed with the whole lot of them and their sanctimonious attitude about how this is the group that should be there (implying all the others shouldn't have been). Just too clique-ish for me. I was hoping to be able to give all my votes to Holly just to stick it to them. Then she left. Still, I confess to getting a wicked thrill out of watching John's expression change when they announced him as the least popular of those remaining. I'm surprised that when they talked to Stephen, nobody brought up the fact that he would let his charity down. They talked about letting the voters down, but the charity would've been my first concern. I wonder if Daniel showing up and then leaving is what took his heart out of it. It had to be a bit like those calls and letters from home that take them out of the game, only to a much larger degree. It's just a shame there aren't any more big personalities left. Just a few nice people and a couple of whiners. Good thing it's almost over. I'll have to watch that Frangela interview now. Thanks for posting the link, Lurk.

Thanks guys. John and Patty have to go. Did anyone else notice how Patty said she wasn't going to wait to vote for the person to return until she had all the information? I somehow thought it was yet another dig for her husband subtlety saying people have to have all the information before condemning him. Maybe I'm reading way too much into this, just thought I'd mention it, but it seems Patty has been one long advertisement for her "poor, persecuted" husband.

Watched the Frangela interview. They didn't seem to have a problem with returning for the finale at the time. I wonder what changed, and if it was their decision not to go or the producers' decision not to have them back. It can't be because one of them quit, because Baldwin and the Pratts are supposedly returning. Sounds like it was just a wet, miserable time. Perhaps the reason they haven't shown all the chores they've been doing is that they aren't having any interesting conversations while they do it. They have shown them washing dishes a few times, probably because that's a two person job so there's more opportunity for a conversation to arise.

Disappointed in John's attitude about Stephen quitting. Hmm wasn't he wanting to go until the producers HANDED him camp leader with all the rigged answers. Most famous? Phooey! <77> Patty no longer surprises me

Just found this on EOnline Say goodbye to Heidi and Spencer Pratt. As far as E! is concerned, the conspicuous couple occasionally self-referred to as Speidi are so dunzo. A startling 94 percent of you elected for the Hills stars' immediate expulsion. Consider them gone from our wheelhouse, voted off the island, fired, out and any other appropriate reality-show catchphrase. Their planned attempt at hijacking the I'm a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! reunion special on Wednesday? You won't read about it here. Barring any actual news (e.g., she gets knocked up, he falls off a cliff or—heaven help us—her album goes to No. 1), consider this their very last post. Yea!!!

I, for one, enjoyed the shocked look on John's face that he was at the bottom of the vote list and would have to participate in that challenge against Holly! What an ego! Go Lou, Torrie and Sanjaya!!

I would absolutely love for Torrie to win! I really like all of the remaining celebrities and have nothing to gripe about them. Holly is such a sweety and her and Sanjaya are very cute together. Patti and John's friendship is nice to see. I was kind of hoping Torrie and Lou could be bff's on the show, lol. Then eveyone would have a bff on the show. John definitely won the drinking gross stuff but they both were impressive. I can't say bad things about any of them because I see them doing this for charity reasons no matter what all the conspiracy theorists say, lol!

I'd like to see John and Patti gone, after that I don't really mind who wins - Torrie, Lou and Sanjaya are all worthy in different ways. I also enjoyed John's face when he was announced as essentially least popular, although I think it was right that Holly went over him. I'm hoping it doesn't boost the calls for John for the next vote though.

It was great to see Holly again. I hope that the spark between her and Sanjaya grows and lasts after the show. Too bad that Stephen threw in the towel. I wish he could have found the inner strength to carry on. This has been a fun tv show and I wish the best to the remaining jungle guests.

I think Holly should have gotten a pass, I would like to have know who the real bottom two were. Too bad it wasn't John and Patti who had to duke it out, then Patti could have left and John could be voted out tonight. Oh wait that would have screwed up the Lou, Torrie Sanjaya finale. Nevermind.

I am thinking with all those insect bites and those two bites with larvae...the pain and itching must have been debilitating for Stephen. I feel sorry for him and don't feel he was "throwing in the towel" as much as going and getting relief.

Yes, I thought Stephen really left because of the burrowing insects he had to have removed. They were growing under his skin and I imagine that would be an awful feeling. eeek! Further back on this thread someone posted an article that explained the details. But, on the show he never said anything about health issues. What got me was John's attitude toward Stephen being a "quitter". So, it's okay for John to say he is are going to quit but not Stephen? John had also said he was leaving then all of a sudden the game turns around for John and he decides to stay.

I think back to them not showing Stephen's letter from home. He was the only one (outside of Janice and Holly, who had been voted off) that they didn't show having the letter read to. There may have been something in the letter. Something that compelled him to leave. Something that compelled him to have an opportunity to call home.

But John only talked about leaving... to me there is a difference between talking about doing something and actually doing something. Plus that was much earlier in the show and I'm sure they are all very tired of being there. So, I don't begrudge Stephen for leaving early, it's his choice to be there or not to be there. I give them kudos for just going in the first place.

Assuming the bugs under skin <blech> story is true, I wish they'd have shown it in the show. It seemed odd that he left so close to the end, but the bugs would make it understandable.

Baldwin Speaks Out About 'Smear Deal' 23 June 2009 3:00 PM, PDT | From wenn.com | See recent WENN news Actor Stephen Baldwin has spoken out about reports he has lost his home, calling the story a "smear deal" against his good name. While The Usual Suspects star filmed U.S. reality TV show I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! in the Costa Rican jungle recently, reports broke suggesting Baldwin's New York home was to be auctioned off after the actor defaulted on more than $824,000 (GBP549,330) in outstanding mortgage payments. But the 43 year old's legal and financial woes have been blown out of proportion, according to his rep Brad Taylor, who insists talk about a 24 June auction is incorrect. And now Baldwin has addressed the story. Calling in to Arizona DJs Johnjay & Rich's morning show on Tuesday, the actor said, "When you're a celebrity and you try to renegotiate stuff... if I wanted to renegotiate my mortgage... these people just really gave me a hard way to go and it actually led to that information that was released. It was totally not the case. "It was actually a bit of a smear deal, which was unfortunate and it's all being straightened out right now."

john salley when he lost the food comp he kicked the wood in a mini fit. when he was in the bottom 2 with daniel, he blamed it on not being "blonde and white" after this he moped about wanting to quit when he got camp leader he became borderline dictorial he has imo shown himself in a poor light quite a few times and i hope he is gonzo tonight.

Oregon I agree. Everything he does is justified in his mind. What others do, even if it is the same, he finds fault.
