Weight-Gate Opens

Every Big Brother season so far has seen housemates enter as slim, toned contestants who then gradually pile on the pounds during their stay in the house. Many of the girls throughout the years have ended up squeezing their larger than normal assets into special eviction night outfits. It happened to the best of them - Helen, Jade Goody, Kate and even last year's winner Sophie. Now the weight-gate has opened again for the latest housemates!

It all started with an offhand comment made by Minister Dave to Josie. Hardly a vision of health himself, Dave suggested Josie join him and Caoimhe in their new exercise routine - big mistake! The suggestion that Josie needs to shed a few pounds left the Bristolian lass reeling for most of the morning!

With all the bad food being consumed and lack of exercise going on in the house it is no wonder that housemates are gaining some extra chins! Dave and Caiomhe are obviously trying to combat their fat fate by embarking on an intense exercise regime - I wonder how long that will last?

Triumph of the Pretty Boy

The mono-brow has left the building! The pretty boy vs bad boy debate has been well and truly answered. Nathan was booted out after a whopping 89% of the public voted for him over John James. Now we'll never know if Corin would have got her razor on that mammoth brow of his! One thing last night proved was that John James' blonde hair and blue eyes have not only wooed Josie, but the whole of the UK. Once and for all, solving the pretty boy vs bad boy quandary.

No sooner had the hairy bad boy left, three more housemates landed, literally! I can't wait to see the trouble these new contestants will stir up, there's bound to be some rivalry between blonde bombshells Keeley and Josie while Ben is sure to up his makeup and beauty game with the arrival of two more pretty girls! I'm hoping Ben might share some of his tips with newby Andrew - who looks in need of a makeover! We had better get ready for some exciting new dramas, flirtations and beauty secrets.

Josie gets a blue rinse

Poor Josie was the latest housemate to fall victim to a shower of paint yesterday, following Mario and Caoimhe's near miss this morning. Josie enjoyed a marathon preening session in the bathroom, where she performed some intense pampering and grooming treatments including a bizarre shaving sesh which saw the housemate twist into some quite unique shaving positions! What is it with our housemates and their strange shaving habits this year? First Corin and her forehead, then Ben and his neck and now Josie has joined in!

After all her preening (no doubt for the benefit of John James), the manicured housemate then stepped into the shower for a rinse - well that's what she thought anyway! Instead mischievous Big Brother sprayed Josie with blue paint forcing her to return to the tub for another soak! Avatar pulled off the blue smurf look, but for our Josie, blue would never be a winner, especially when trying to woo a certain gorgeous Aussie...

Josie may have more than a blue rinse to worry about after tonight. The house is set to open its doors to three new housemates, two of which are young, attractive females who are bound to cause a bit of rivalry! I'm not just talking about competition for the remaining girls but also Ben's status as Diva of the house! Watch this space.

Eviction night style

Have you noticed how the housemates always get really over-the-top glammed up for the eviction night; even those not nominated? It’s as if they are suddenly reminded that they are actually being watched by millions and up their beauty routines for the big night. Or perhaps its just gives them all something to do?

But anyway back to eviction news…

Despite bitchy Govan being the 'evictee' of the night, it was his arch enemy Ben who stole the show! We noted earlier this week that Ben has been, by far, the diva of the house since Rachael was voted out last week. Dressed to impress in his dapper blazer, tie and extra floppy hair, the posh housemate was all set to leave the house in style. Earlier in the day he was treated to a beauty sesh with Josie who, on his own instructions, painted his nails and added mascara, ‘man cream’ and the essential finishing touch - guy liner.

Dave also got the Josie treatment with red nails and a slicked over hair look which even gave Corin a run for her money! Makeup didn't save Rachael, but maybe for the boys adding some makeup to their personalities would keep from nomination in the first place!

I am loving watching all the boys get more and more beautified as the show goes on, especially Ben and his hilarious grooming antics.

Oh Brother! Nail-mania in the BB house

Is it me or have nails become the obsession of the house this year? What with BB’s first gift of nail polish, Corin’s daily paint-athon and even the men dabbling in the art of nail painting – it's all about the nails!

Our observant Twitter-ers (@freedermbigbro) have picked up on this trend with several of you commenting about Corin painting her nails yet again! Now I'm a girl who likes nice looking nails, but I wonder - how is all this nail painting, removing, and reapplying affecting the housemates' nail health? I've heard that over-painting is what causes dry, weak and cracked nails – have you heard that too?

The BB11 housemates need to be careful; with all the cat fights that are starting to erupt, a pair of strong nails could be crucial.

I’m pretty sure another cause of bad nails is thumb sucking – and I am talking about regular thumb sucking Josie. If you hadn’t yet noticed, Josie is constantly sucking her thumb - morning, noon and night. I mean, firstly, how old are you Josie? And secondly, it’s not the most attractive habit to display on live TV in front of millions! You would have thought Josie would have kept the thumb sucking behind closed doors...

Okay...I know, that joke was the 'nail' in my stand-up coffin. Ouch!
