With ca-ra-zzzzy Jessie Godderz, Libra Thompson and even Jerry MacDonald taking up everyone's attention, Renny Martin has not had much screen time in the past couple of weeks on Big Brother 10.

That all changed when she won Head of Household.

Renny Martin may be the most enigmatic personality in the house. As Jerry said last night, she's like clown - erratic, larger than life, goofy.

She's not dumb, though. Renny is very concerned with how others view her, and if there's anything important in Big Brother land it's perception.

In the aftermath of Renny's HoH win, April and Ollie knew they will be the targets, but Renny is also worried about Memphis Garrett.

She sees how well he and Keesha get along. Renny knows Memphis is a smart guy, knows he's a big threat, but also knows it wouldn't be a good move to upset Keesha, considering the two of them are close.

Renny flirted with the idea of putting a pawn up on the block, or nominating Memphis because he's a threat. But ultimately, Renny decided to nominate April and Jerry, with April seemingly the main target.

Which one of them will depart the Big Brother house - if they aren't saved by the Power of Veto tomorrow night, that is?

Didn't see that one coming. Oh wait, everyone did. In any case, let's recap last night's Big Brother 10 eviction episode ...

No one in the house was particularly pleased by Jerry's "Judas" comments re: Dan. Memphis is especially perturbed by the situation, as he hates Jer. Dan, however, loves it - it's making him into a victim!

April, Ollie and Jerry really want Keesha out. April especially hates Keesha. Ollie tells Libra that, if she wants to stay, she should go talk to Dan. She does, but can't give Dan any details. Dan is also vague.

Dan responds in equally vague terms.

Later, we see an extended package from the home of public enemy #1.

The husband of Libra Thompson totally supports her being on Big Brother - in no way is it a burden on the family, as has been implied.

Not that it will matter anyway after tonight. Incredibly, Libra was evicted by a unanimous vote. Gone was the suspense of last week's Jessie Godderz eviction, where America's Player Dan was the swing vote.

Libra was gone from day one. Despite the fact that she has to go to the sequester house, she almost seemed relieved to get away.

Lastly, the Head of Household competition was “Diary Room Confessions.” Each of the players sat in a chair while Julie Chen read them diary room quotes from one of the first four evicted houseguests.

It came down to Renny and Keesha, with Renny winning Head of Household - and throwing off our Power Rankings in a big way.

Our Big Brother power rankings from top to bottom (note that due to insane nature of show, these may change in a matter of minutes) ...

9. Libra Thompson. Forget that she's apparently named after a zodiac sign, she is universally maligned and going home tonight, in all likelihood.

8. Keesha Smith. She's #8 by default here, being up on the block and all. We do not expect her to go home tonight, but Keesha gets upset too often to steer clear of disaster for too much longer.

7. Jerry MacDonald. He's turned into a bit of a loose cannon, not to mention an ornery fella. His rampage against Dan was hypocritical and, well, a little nutso. Then again, the man keeps winning the PoV somehow.

6. April Dowling. April is the true puppet-master, slyly pitting people against each other. But that has a high probability of backfiring eventually. Should Keesha win HoH, April and Ollie could end up on the block.

5. Bryan Ollie. He's slept with a married woman and tangs April on national TV. If April is evicted, he might be able to salvage his game.

4. Michelle Costa. Her odd relationship with Jessie Godderz did not do her any favors. She's also prone to completely unnecessary outbursts. But she is mostly just annoying and not thought of as a real threat - the kind of person that can stick around a lot longer than you'd guess.

3. Renny Martyn. After a rough start, Renny Martyn has surprisingly become a relaxed voice of reason in the house, sort of what we expected Jerry would be, before he went off the deep end apparently.

2. Memphis Garrett. Jerry called this early on. Memphis might have this game locked up as he's stayed out of all conflicts, is on good terms with most everyone in the house, and has removed the target from his back.

1. Dan Gheesling. We know America's Player is almost asking to get kicked off, but he's sly and able to remain calmer than most when the going gets tough. Right now Dan is our #1, although that may be due in part to entertainment value. Rankings subject to change at a moment's notice.

These Big Brother house guests are capable of anything.

One's ability to think rationally is absolutely destroyed with time spent in the Big Brother house... or heck, even watching it on TV.

Last night's Power of Veto episode left us with drama, bickering and the most off-handed “Judas” references in TV history.

Thank you, Jerry MacDonald. Watch your back, Dan Gheesling.

Libra Thompson expected her nomination - really, how could you not - and Keesha kind of expected hers as well.

She still cried in her room after. Dan is extremely pleased that he's not on the block. Libra comes in and says that, no matter what happens to her this week or next, she wants them to get April out of the house.

Last week on Big Brother 10, professional bodybuilder and personal trainer Jessie Godderz, 22, was evicted after viewers instructed America's Player, Dan, stabbed him in the back and voted him out.

Now, free to speak his mind here in the real world again (not that being in the Big Brother house stopped him) Jessie is striking back.

In a new interview with TV Guide, Jessie insists his game play was "perfect," one of his house mates is "off her meds," that he figured out Dan is America's Player, that he's not arrogant, and much more ...

TVGuide.com: So, Jessie, how are you doing?

Jessie Godderz: A little sleep deprived... because as much as people want to point the finger at me, it was taken out of my hands when America told Dan what to do. Initially I felt a little confident in Dan by him saying that $500,000 wasn't worth him going back on his word, and he got paid not even a fraction of that to put me out of the house. Granted, teachers don't get paid that much, but if that's what he wants to stand by, it's just a little hypocritical, obviously. To each his own. My game play was perfect — I was going to skate by this week [since Michelle is HoH]; I finally wouldn't have been the underdog, I finally would have felt safe.

TVGuide.com: And this is why you're sleep deprived, because you've been thinking about all these things?

Jessie Godderz: Any question you can ask me, I've thought about. I've been asked about being arrogant, supposedly, about me saying that my name and "arrogant" shouldn't be in the same sentence. Arrogance is a very vague term. [Some people] would say I'm arrogant because I work out; a different person would say, "Jessie is dedicated to working out and dedicated to his physique." I do it for fun, a hobby and a job.

TVGuide.com: To back up for just a second — you told Julie that you weren't surprised, but did you really see your eviction coming?

Jessie Godderz: Apparently they didn't show that after I got done talking with Dan [when Dan supposedly "broke down" and hugged Jessie], I went and played pool with Michelle, and we came to the conclusion that he was [America's Player]. I almost said it in my speech prior to them voting, but you're so cloudy with everything, it's hard to think clearly.... Now that I am more so, it stinks that I didn't call him out on it.

One of the reasons to watch Big Brother 10 - or any reality show - is to scream at the guy or girl you hate. The one you despise, yet can't stop watching. Basically the Spencer Pratt of your favorite show.

On Big Brother 10, that person was Jessie Godderz. 

The show has a number of vaguely unlikable contestants this season, but none can top Jessie. With him gone, someone needs to step up.

Keesha sucks, but it's not quite the same. Although this week - given the Big Brother spoilers we now know - she may be up to the task.

And don't even get us started on Libra Thompson.

Follow the jump to see who wins tonight's Power of Veto competition - and whether he or she decides to do anything with it ...

After sparring with nearly every other houseguest on Big Brother 10 and angering many viewers to boot, Libra is finally in trouble.

The evil Libra's reign of terror reached new heights as her plan to oust Jessie Godderz succeeded, making her a target of Michelle.

Michelle, of course, has won Head of Household this week. The bulls eye on Libra's back just grew bigger.

Thus, last night's Big Brother 10 episode featured a huge fight, returning house guests, and two not-so-surprising nominees.

Follow the jump for the full rundown ...

Yesterday, we played (or at least blogged) a little bit of Project Runway word association. Last night on Big Brother, Julie decided to play a word association game with Jessie Godderz.

When he had to describe himself, he responded "the man."

Sigh. Whether you liked Jessie Godderz or not, the Big Brother 10 house sure won't be the same without him.

Jessie's nine lives were finally up on last night's live eviction episode of Big Brother. Of the four weeks Jessie spent in the house, he was on the block three times and HoH the other time.

When he was eliminated from the house, he said he wasn't surprised but felt his housemates had a completely wrong impression of him.

Not sure how that's possible, but whatever you say.

Meanwhile, there was an ending to the next week's HoH competition that many Big Brother players didn't want to happen.

Michelle beat Libra to become the new Head of Household and considering it was only minutes after Jessie's eviction - she was his only friend left - you could tell Michelle was out for blood.

She made no qualms about who she'd be going after and pointed the finger and Libra, Keesha, and Dan. Ironically, Dan, America's Player, no longer has any say in his votes. Stay tuned!

Last night on Big Brother 10, the screaming and bickering reached extreme levels - even by Big Brother standards, people.

Jessie Godderz stirred up trouble between Libra, Keesha, and April, which turned into an all out war. Memphis remains bitter and Jaded.

Soon enough, Jerry and Renny were involved and yelling, too.

America’s Player, a.k.a. Dan, had to hug a player for 10 seconds and the US of A chose ... Jessie Godderz, obviously!

Dan had to make up a story about his girlfriend and Jessie fell for it ... they actually hugged for 17 seconds. Go Dan!

Later, during the PoV competition, eliminated players received prizes but could trade them for anything else.

When Libra won, she was horrified to find the Jen-Sheila red unitard as her "prize." She took Michelle’s Hawaiian vacation. That move proved to be the thing that sent Michelle off the deep end.

As for the veto competition itself, April's fears of her alliance losing out were assuaged when Libra, April and Jerry MacDonald (pictured) were somehow the last three standing in the hockey-themed PoV battle.

Jerry won a letter from home, but quickly gave it up to take the PoV, which was sitting in Jessie's hands. He did not use it at the ceremony and kept April's nominations intact, as she wanted.

Will it be Memphis Garrett or Jessie Godderz going home?

As the credits rolled last night, both seemed to think they have the votes to remain in the house. Should be interesting.

When Jessie Godderz somehow survived another eviction ceremony last week - by unanimous vote no less - we were shocked.

We're sure we aren't the only ones. Two days later, he’s back on the block, up against hothead Memphis Garrett (pictured) ...

Sooner or later, things must have to catch up with Jessie Godderz. Right? We've seen people hang on like this before, but it seems he was living on borrowed time as soon as he walked in the Big Brother house.

Can either Jessie or Memphis save their own asses in tonight's Power of Veto competition? Find out in these Big Brother spoilers ...Continue Reading...
