Lisa | Monday, August 28, 2000 - 06:17 pm  August 28 - Day 55 Day 53 - Brittany asked Jamie to tell her what pageants are like. Jamie explained to her the many steps you must partake while in a contest. She said that while she was in Miss USA, it took three weeks. Brit confessed that her view on pageants was pretty negative, and doesn't know how someone can judge you when they don't even know who you are. Josh said he thinks the cool people always win. Jamie explained that if you do win, you give 250 speeches per year, are moved to New York to live in a penthouse and are paid a salary for your year's work. Day 54 - Jamie acts as the MC for the BB beauty pageant. Two house guests were to be crowned Mr. and Miss BB 2000. The pageant began with the talent show. Cass read a poem she wrote herself, George cooked butt bread, Jamie did gymnastics, Curtis did some strange dance, and Eddie juggled three eggs standing on one leg. Next came the swimsuit contest, with Josh doing a Chippendales dance, and Jamie strutting with her bikini on but a shirt on top of it. The final round was the Platform round, where all the guests spoke very seriously about world issues such as immigration, disability and world peace. Eddie won Mr. BB 2000 and Cass and Brit tied for Miss BB 2000. The three were treated to a private dinner for just them outside in the yard with the menu of their choice. Brit chose lobster and caesar salad. Cass chose beef and pork ribs, and Eddie chose surf and turf. The others moped around in the bedroom telling each other what they would have ordered had they won the contest. Brit confessed to Jamie in bed that being nominated for banishment by two people really bothered her, and that she is scared to leave the house. Cass joined them, and Brit told her how she was feeling. Cass immediately told Brit that nominations are just part of being in the house and that she shouldn't think that two people don't like her because she was nominated. She told her to get her head on straight and not take it personally. The house guests were given their weekly challenge - a 4,928 piece jigsaw puzzle. They agreed to wager 50% of their weekly grocery allowance this week. Day 55 - George took Chiquita outside to the yard, and suddenly called for Brittany. Brit and the others ran outside to see a plane flying by trailing a sign that read "Vote George - Save Brit". Brit thought the sign was mean and hugged George while she cried. Curtis said it was probably Karen flying the plane. Later, Brit asked the guys if George was okay about the plane incident. George was shown in the Red Room trying another attempt to the public for support. He was wearing a scarf on his head, speaking in an Arabic accent, and saying how he owns a convenience store, that George is his best customer, and we must vote to keep George in the house. Brit is shown trying to get Chiquita to do #2 outside, however, she wouldn't go. The show ends with the house guests balancing books on their head during the pageant. |
