Yesterday was the official launch of Celebrity Big Brother 2019. We saw Jonathan Bennett go full Mean Girls in the diary room, and Joey Lawrence not being willing to say “whoa,” not once, not even a little. We wrote a full Celebrity Big Brother recap to help you sort through all the madness.
It was a very entertaining first night of Celebrity Big Brother 2. If you were busy living a non-Big Brother obsessed life, or unsure if you should give this season a chance, here are a few highlights to get you interested.
- Dina Lohan, Ricky Williams, and Natalie Eva Marie didn’t receive much airtime. It was kind of the Tom Green, Jonathan, Ryan Lochte, Lolo Jones, Kandi Burruss, and Tamar Braxton show.
- Tamar and Kandi’s past feud was brought up. Tamar threw a little shade at Kandi in the DR, but she tried to extend an olive branch by picking her to be on her team in the Head of Household competition. It lead to a hilarious competitive performance.
- Lolo and Tom, and Jonathan and Ryan went head-to-head in the Head of Household competition. Ryan and Jonathan won. This is good for one of them, terrible for the other one.
- Host Julie Chen-Moonves announced the latest twist: Tonight, we’ll watch Ryan and Jonathan compete against each other in the second part of the competition. The winner becomes HOH and the loser becomes the first nominee.
- Julie also told us this week’s format. Tomorrow is the Power of Veto competition, and Friday is the eviction.
