Joey actually told Devin that she was going to give Caleb his name when he asked her who to put up against Paola. Caleb told her that it would be a house selection and he would poll all of the houseguests to determine who he would put up. Joey said she told Devin as a courtesy and would not be mad if, in return, he chose to name her. She said that the reason why she chose him was because he was such a physical threat. She insinuated that the other women also felt the same way.

In this case a copy of Caleb's Instagram account was posted and we could read his racist and homophobic rants, and he never denied them. Apparently, he was told by producers that he had to "make nice" with certain people to offset the negative publicity in order to be selected for the show. They could ill afford a repeat of last years show. But a leopard rarely changes his spots.

Where is the proof that he was told to make nice? Is that speculation or did he actually say that on live feeds?

I agree. He's being a conceited jerk.... I wish Hayden were part of the bomb squad instead of this jerk.

I think getting America's vote switched on her arrogance switch.

Frankie frustrates me. I adore him!! But because he has a famous sister (and only because of that), I don't want him there while there is America's vote. But lets face it... He is the reason for most of the happy entertainment.

Has Amber encouraged her stalker at all?

I think she encouraged him before noms were made. Even Donny said "she's playing you" regarding Amber playing Caleb.

Hate the Team America concept. Hope they don't replace Joey. Buh bye Joey!!

I still think he's a douche. He will probably be the first to turn on his alliance or instrumental on convincing someone else to.

Sorry to burst the Caleb bubble but, Donny will be second America Team member...

No bubble burst. I think that is very likely.

Interesting. Does he have good hair?

To my knowledge yes. But who knows... Maybe the hairline is receding... Maybe there are a stray grey hair or two?

He always has some sort of hat on. It is rare to see him without a hat. LOL

I'm glad Donny won the POV!! And honestly, I think Donny was a target because people found out that he was a superfan and knew a whole lot about the game. The fact that Devin told others about his alliance with Donny (the Double D's) makes me think that Devin threw Donny under the bus.

Yeah, the guys definitely want Joey out. The trick is securing the votes for it. As for Grodner, I'm sure she didn't WANT the saboteur to be eliminated first either, but they were.

I don't see Caleb winning the whole thing unless the others implode on each other and he stays quiet long enough to squeek through and dominate in later competitions. But I do see him lasting a few more weeks. The house has bigger, more annoying targets. Like Devin. And Joey. And if they wise up, Zach.

With that said, I have to say that the Caleb I am seeing in the house is exactly like the one I remember. Slightly egotistical but he has a good heart. Girl crazy.... definitely girl crazy and unless Amber actually feels the same way that he does (we will see soon what happened BEFORE the live feeds came on), he needs to cut her quick from the game. He's not homophobic. We've seen past homophobic contestants REFUSE to sleep in a bed with a gay man.... he doesn't care that Frankie is gay. He gets along with him GREAT. He's not racist. A true racist would never align with someone from another race. He is aligned with Devin. The house even talks about Caleb and Devin being best buds.

My faith in my friend is fully restored. And no, he isn't a stalker type. He is just smitten right now.

To be honest, I feel MUCH better now. I was very torn on this whole thing. So unless if I see something drastic happen, Caleb has my full support.

The only somewhat confirmed is Hayden and I believe Nicole. I could be wrong on the girls name. I don't have all the names down.

Ummm, was it just me or did Frankie and Caleb share the HOH bed last night?

He's going to get found out SOON if he keeps up the hardcore strategizing.

Agreed... With all the above.

So Caleb bonded with Frankie in the HOH... He is apparently bonded/aligned with Devin... And he's crushing on Amber.

Safe for the week. :-)

I'm liking this guy so far too. So far. LOL

Still waiting to see how he interacts with people in the house....

My girlfriends who are on FB that don't know Caleb and don't follow the news are falling in love with Caleb and voting for him. LOL

I have to admit, the twisted humorist in me wants to see peoples faces if he gets voted for Team America. There are many reasons to do this:

For those who hate Caleb:

1) Paints a huge target on his back

2) Forces him to be in an alliance with the most liberal in the household

3) Might force him to turn on an alliance

For those who love Caleb:

1) Help him earn some money

2) Um, because you love him?

Don't be surprised if he gets the 2nd nod... He came across as super adorable with his smile in the HOH comp... LOL

A little TOO affectionate actually. I got a little uncomfortable. Not kidding.

I definitely get the vapid feel from this guy. But he's hot so congrats!! His modeling career will continue...

I remember Amanda Zuckerman's poor dad. Speaking of Amanda......let's not.

Deal!!!

here is a better link to the TMZ piece on Caleb

http://www.tmz.com/2014/06/25/big-brother-caleb-reynolds-racist/

his father's defense actually manages to discredit Caleb even more -- it shows us precisely where Caleb learned his bigotry.

And Mischa -- you're right about Blake being kinda hot!

That website didn't include them doing a test for Blake where he had to name a former houseguest and Blake said, "judd.... J-U-Double D"... LOL. It was so freaking adorable.

They need to have Blake be the spokesperson for the family. Paul (sorry Paul but its true) came across as the angry papa bear. Any parent would be! I would.
