I cant believe we are in our 11th season and 10th year!

Over the years,Big Brotherhas almost become synonymous with summer at CBS.

We have a saying now: If its summer…itsBig Brother!

It has become like a familiar friend you look forward to seeing every summer.

A guilty pleasure where youre allowed to love, hate, and judge total strangers being real and human.

in all of the Houseguests.

So, here goes…

But first(wink), lets talk about the elephant in the EW blog room…The Chenbot!

I was horrified when my best friend from college first told me about myBig Brothernickname.

But, there was a side of me that kind of also got it right away.

When I played dumb and asked her to explain it…it was exactly what I expected to hear.

Then I was kind of embarrassed and yet unsure how to feel or react.

(Chenbot was hurt…does this mean the Chenbot has emotions!?!?!).

from the live shows and I laughed my head off.

I WAS the Chenbot.

Thats when I said to myself, Can I blame em?

I AM the Chenbot!

The Beatles lyrics of I am the Walrus went through my head but I substituted in Chenbot.

Folks have also expressed interest in my wardrobe.

I also venture to have fun with some more glamorous outfits…and things that are fashion-forward.

Im due October 4 (which is about 2 weeks after our finale).

I have a beautiful tent dress ready for that show!

Im not trying to hide it.

Im often asked how I stay informed of the Houseguests and the events in theBBHouse.

The show highlights are really key, though.

They are daily logs of what is going on in the house.

One person each summer is designated to watch the Houseguests and log all the highlights of whats currently happening.

These are myBig Brothercliff notes that hit all the major points and events.

What do you think of the new twist?

Which brings us to Jessie from Season 10 and the fact that hes back.

This has certainly caused quite a stir both inside and outside the house…and I love that!

To me, thats a great response because it shows he was memorable and interesting to watch.

If people said Whos back???

I dont remember him/her… that would be disastrous.

The most interesting people to watch are the ones who are not beloved by all.

People have also asked about the reactions of the former Houseguests who were vying to get back in theBBHouse.

I thought his muscles were going to explode).

Cowboy seemed pretty sad that he didnt get his chance at redemption…I felt bad for him.

Especially since he made it to the final two but didnt winBB5.

Brian and Jessica seemed to take it well and were good sports.

So, last night was our first live eviction and Braden was sent packing.

Each week, we usually decide by committee what topics to discuss with each evictee.

And, What were you thinking???

Or, Congratulations!!!

I want the live shows to stay focused on them and their experience in the house.

So, thats it for my first everBig Brotherblog.

Looking forward to reading your thoughts.

Leave questions on the comment boards and Ill do my best to answer what I can each week!
