Big Brother 18: Who Has Best Odds to Win America’s Favorite Player?

Every year, the America’s Favorite Player competition brings out the competitive side of Big Brother fans. Fandoms vote to the very last moment to ensure that their favorite wins the AFP crown.

This year is no different. Big Brother 18 fans have already started arguing why their favorite deserves the $25,000. Based on Big Brother 2016 Twitter hashtags and polls, it seems like Nicole Franzel, Natalie Negrotti, James Huling, Paul Abrahamian, and Victor Arroyo are the players most likely to win the America’s Favorite Player prize.

Nicole Franzel

In Big Brother 16 , Nicole placed in the top three finalist for America’s Favorite Player. People adored her quirky, good girl, Midwestern charm. They admired her innocence and honesty, even if it cost her the game.

Big Brother 18 has shown fans a different side to Nicole, and many do not like it. Nicole’s most loyal fans remain loyal but she’s nowhere near as popular as she was on Big Brother 16. The lack of massive support lessens her odds of winning it this year. However, she still has enough support that she could still slither her way to the America’s Favorite Player prize.

Paul Abrahamian

Production clearly loves Paul, because he adds a light entertainment that this season lacks. Production will have Paul back for a return run on Big Brother. However, it took awhile for viewers to completely embrace Paul.

Early on, casual and feed watchers labeled Paul a loud mouth, who spewed nonsensical sayings far too often. However, when he broke ties with Paulie Calafiore, and fully committed to his bromance with Victor, his stock rose.

Despite the new warm feelings for Paul, we still don’t know if he has enough love from the casual viewers to make a dent in the America’s Favorite Player voting. He didn’t win any of America’s Care Packages, which might be an indication that he’s popular with feed watchers, but not casual fans.

Natalie Negrotti

Prior to two weeks ago, Natalie seemed like she would win America’s Favorite Player, even more so than James. She seemed like a sweetheart, had a likable showmance, and showed more game prowess many than other Big Brother 18 players.

Then CBS murdered her with the edit of her last week in the house. To some, she came off as a manipulative girl who used James in the game. America’s final image of Natalie (minus juror footage and eviction) might make her lose many of the casual viewers who once supported her.

Victor Arroyo

Victor wasn’t very popular at the start of Big Brother 18. He remained unpopular even after he returned during the Battle Back competition. It wasn’t until he nominated Paulie that fans started to see a different side to Victor.

He won more viewers admiration and respect when he won his way back into the house a second time, and when CBS did a segment with his family.

It showed his humble beginnings. However, like Paul, we still don’t have a very clear picture of casual viewer’s opinion on Victor. He has definitely won a lot more people over, but maybe not enough to beat some of the other players for the AFP prize.

James Huling

It’s hard to see a scenario where James doesn’t win America’s Favorite Player (except if he makes it to the final 2 and therefore ineligible). He has the casual viewers completely on his side.

The only thing that could hurt James’ chance of winning AFP is if enough feed watchers endorse a certain player plus enough casual ones favor other people. But right now, America’s Favorite Player prize seems like James’s to lose.

Heather Dubrow Wonders Why Meghan Edmonds Took So Long To Tell Shannon Beador About The Dune Buggy Accident

Heather Dubrow blog

The last episode of Real Housewives of Orange County was more dramatic than I could ever imagine and it surprisingly didn’t involve anyone screaming at each other. It was more of a subtle drama that made the cast members and the viewers question Meghan Edmonds and Shannon Beador after they had virtually NO reaction to Heather Dubrow telling them about Vicki Gunvalson getting in a serious accident.

I feel like a lot of people understand why Meghan and Shannon don’t want to be friends with Vicki after her antics last year and her lack of actual apologies, but not going to see someone in the hospital who had no one there to help her was really harsh.

I’m sure that Meghan and Shannon’s Twitter mentions are blowing up after that last episode aired. Not only that, but Heather called them both out in her Bravo blog.

Heather wrote, “I can’t believe how long it took Meghan to tell Shannon about the accident, Meghan was very clear from our call and subsequent texts on the severity of the accident.”

Yeah, I’m very curious about that as well – what was so urgent about hanging out at Meghan‘s spare house that took precedence over their friends – or at the very least, cast members – almost dying?

Heather explained, “I assumed that when Shannon arrived Meghan would tell her and then call me. That’s why I got so fired up. Meghan knows me, she knows I’m not a histrionic person and I would expect her to take what I’m saying at face value.”

I don’t understand how Meghan misunderstood the severity of the accident when Heather said Vicki was airlifted out of there and in the hospital. That sounds very serious to me even without any additional details. Ultimately, Meghan and Shannon both ended up looking heartless in response to Heather sharing the horrific news with them.

It’s clear that Heather put the blame for Shannon‘s reaction on Meghan, “After watching the episode I understand why Shannon didn’t want to go see Vicki. She didn’t understand the severity of the accident. She thought it was no big deal, so of course she wouldn’t rush over there. They aren’t friends and it makes no sense.”

I still think that hearing about someone Shannon used to be super close with is in the hospital should have been enough for her to go visit – especially since she had no one else who was there for her.

And the other thing that I don’t understand in regard to Meghan‘s reaction was that she was just at Vicki‘s birthday. Heather was also confused by that, “Meghan had just been at Vicki’s house for her birthday and brought her a gift. Again, that’s why I couldn’t get over the non-responsive attitude.”

While I do think that Meghan being the messenger did skew Shannon‘s view of the accident, Shannon did know that Vicki was in the hospital and that she reacted poorly (even given the information that she knew).

TELL US – DO YOU THINK IT’S FAIR FOR HEATHER TO BLAME MEGHAN FOR SHANNON’S REACTION TO VICKI BEING IN THE HOSPITAL?

Big Brother Spoilers: Final Head of Household Round 2 Winner!

We have the Big Brother spoilers from the Live Feeds for you on who won Head of Household round two in the final challenge of season 18. Before the second final HoH phase kicked off, James Huling told fellow veteran Nicole Franzel he was going to throw it to her, while telling Paul Abrahamian the exact opposite and that he couldn’t wait to win it!

Big Brother 18 host Julie Chen (CBS)

There was a lot of speculation both inside the Big Brother 18 house between Paul and Nicole, and outside among the fans, which houseguest James was actually lying to. Talking to the cameras on the Big Brother Live Feeds, James seemed very confident that he would end up in the Final Two no matter what. He seems to believe it is extremely unlikely Paul would take Nicole to the end, or that Nicole would take Paul. So if he really believed that to be true, there was no reason for him not to throw the competition.

However, we know from watching the Live Feeds that James should be a lot more worried about his possibly ‘guaranteed’ spot in the Final Two. There are very good reasons Nicole might prefer to sit in front of the Jury with Paul instead of James, and she’s talked about that. Heck, you could even argue some decent reasons Paul might prefer to go up against Nicole over James, and Paul will be thinking hard about those as well.

Regardless, we really hoped that James would man up and fight for the chance to face off in the last round of the final Head of Household Competition to determine who would get to choose which house guests end up in the Final Two.

Unfortunately, we did not get to watch the second phase of the final HoH on the Live Feeds, but when they returned from blackout, we learned the person who won is… Nicole! Which just makes wonder… Did she win, or did James give it to her?
