Tdot | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 05:01 pm     I have wondered this each year of BB. Why do the houseguests get all dressed up for the live show? For the few minutes of TV time that they're actually on compared to all the footage of them without makeup, nice clothes, etc... Is it really worth all the work they put in each Wednesday night? |
Spunky | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 05:03 pm     That's something I've always wondered about too... Maybe it's for morale....makes them feel better (Jack said that). |
Beachmama | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 05:04 pm     I asked this same question a couple of weeks ago. I don't think we ever came up with an answer. Seems really silly to me for them to do all this also.. we see them at their worst.. why bother with all the extra makeup and such on Wednesdays? |
Ocean_Islands | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 05:05 pm     They don't seem to understand they are shown to be slobs way more often than 'dressed up' on the live show. |
Crossfire | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 05:06 pm     It's not all bad, soemtimes it feels good to get cleaned up and be presentable for a while. |
Tdot | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 05:10 pm     Especially considering that most of the HGs wear the same plain old clothes most days of the week... |
Lulu | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 05:39 pm     At least it's something to do |
Seanflynn2003 | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 05:40 pm     The producers encourage them to do so |
Darkhorse19 | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 05:45 pm     They are in a house with the sames people for 3 months.. It gets really really really really boring. It is something to do instead of killing themselves. |
Tobor7 | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 07:21 pm     I always ask myself this when I see them cleaning and getting ready. I suppose it is something to do. |
Willsbills | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 07:52 pm     It gives Justin's shorts a break. The house has to be clean for live shows by the rule book. I can understand those up for eviction dressing up because in some instances they will be reunited with loved ones and may want to look nice since they have probably embarrassed the whole family on tv. As for the rest of them I agree; it gives them something to do and look forward to. |
Crazydog | Thursday, August 14, 2003 - 07:59 am     I think it's nice that they look nice at least once a week. They all have "nice" outfits with them and otherwise they would never have the opportunity to get dressed up and look their best. They are not going to put on long shirts/pants and dresses just to go sit outside all day with nothing to do. |
Kellirippa | Thursday, August 14, 2003 - 08:05 am     But Nate wasn't dressed up, he was wearing shorts and flip-flops... |
Cliotheleo | Thursday, August 14, 2003 - 08:29 am     yeah and Dave never dressed up, I think it's a ritual thing more than anythiing else. Helps them break up the monotony. |
Crazydog | Thursday, August 14, 2003 - 08:53 am     Nate was wearing a short-sleeved shirt with a collar. Usually he is shirtless, in that horrific tie-dye shirt, that black t-shirt or some other kind of t-shirt. I think he wore shorts and flip-flops to make a statement. |
Angelsluv | Thursday, August 14, 2003 - 08:56 am     Maybe they dress up because they are all vain?? *LOL* |
Duncan | Thursday, August 14, 2003 - 01:11 pm     Speaking of all dressing up.....has it ever occured to anyone that the hamsters always seem to have far more clothing available to them than could possibly fit into the bags they bring in the house with them? |
Crazydog | Thursday, August 14, 2003 - 01:17 pm     Duncan, I believe they have suitcases brought in through the storage room. Not just those duffel bags they carry - the duffel bags are mostly for show. Before each eviction, the people on the block have to pack up their big suitcases and leave them in the storage room. When someone is evicted, BB takes their suitcase and relays it to them. The person who didn't get voted out later goes to the storage closet and unpacks their suitcase. |
Zachsmom | Thursday, August 14, 2003 - 01:23 pm     You mean y'all don't get dressed up for the live show? Here I thought we were supposed to! I do whatever the hamsters do: They eat: I eat They exercise: I exercise (Well..I stretch to losen up my numb-butt syndrome) They shower: I shower They sleep: I sleep They get dress: I get dressed Please don't tell me I am the only one! |
Jagger | Thursday, August 14, 2003 - 01:31 pm     Great one z-mom, yes I get out my tux every wednesday night just so I look good in the reflection of the TV. |
Tdot | Thursday, August 14, 2003 - 02:31 pm     Zachsmom: MY mom would have kicked me out of the house by now if I had spent the whole summer imitating the hamsters (AKA sitting on my butt, doing nothing). |
Denecee | Thursday, August 14, 2003 - 02:52 pm     Jee is the only one,IMO, who looks nice most of the time. I am so sick of seeing Jun in her string bikini and Erika in her pink. |
John32070 | Thursday, August 14, 2003 - 03:27 pm     The BB1 bunch never really got dressed up for live shows, in fact they did things like wearing the camoflage and the togas (or was the toga just George?). Only time I saw them dressed up (well some of them were anyway) was for the two BB roasts. |
Konamouse | Thursday, August 14, 2003 - 07:59 pm     Zachsmom: You mean y'all don't get dressed up for the live show? Here I thought we were supposed to! I do whatever the hamsters do: They eat: I eat They exercise: I exercise (Well..I stretch to losen up my numb-butt syndrome) ------------ I used to do the exercise class with Dani last year if I was home at that time of day. Hubby thought I was weird. 'squeek' |
Cliotheleo | Thursday, August 14, 2003 - 08:12 pm     As they were getting ready for this food comp, one in which they will be eating, I got up and brushed my teeth. |
