‘Big Brother 18’ live feed spoilers: Week 10 nominations

While it was nice to have a few surprises here and there as of late on “Big Brother 18,” things went back to their predictable fashion on Friday night with the Nomination Ceremony. There was a plan put in place beforehand, and it came to fruition as we saw Head of Household Nicole make her decision.

Paul and Michelle are now on the block, and both she and Paul seem to be relishing the strategic aspect of this to a certain degree. For the two of them, they get to mask an alliance, while still controlling the vote as to who is going home. Michelle remains the target, and unless something changes or wins the Veto, we expect this week to go according to plan.

This is the time where some of Big Meech’s past comments may have come back to bite her. While she covered herself well at the time after she called Nicole a “snake” publicly, we don’t think she ever forgot about it. She knows that Michelle wants her out, so for her we do understand the logic of getting her out. Meanwhile, she wants James / Natalie still in the game so that A) she keeps her options open and B) this leaves people for Paul and Victor to go after.

We may not enjoy much of what Nicole is bringing to the season from an entertainment point of view, especially in terms of her relationship with the fairly-dreadful Corey, but we admit that she’s doing a rather great job this week. If this move works, nobody’s going to leave her Head of Household extremely angry. Maybe James and Natalie will be bummed that Paul and Victor are still in the game, but she didn’t go after either one of them and by that notion, she may not be their target moving into the next week.
