Well it’s that time again! And the first nominations of BB9 did not disappoint.
We could have predicted this, but if you have been watching some other show (can’t imagine why you would be) Mario and Alex are up for nomination!
Alex ended up with nine nominations and Mario with seven. The closest contenders were Dennis and Sylvia, with four nominations’ each. This means that if they don’t do some serious creeping in the next week they could see themselves facing the public vote next!
From the nominations, it is clear that this year’s housemates are a bit more aware of their fellow housemates’ ‘games.’
Even though Sylvia had been trying her best in the last few days to separate herself from the ‘clearly’ disliked Alex and form ‘friendships,’ her fellow housemates, such as Kat, can see that she is “supportive in the wrong way.”
So we don’t have to shout at the television in vain anymore “to get her out!” - the housemates are actually learning from previous years!
Just one decision now – Mario or Alex – it’s hard to decide which one is worse!!!

Winehouse refused visa for Grammys
Amy Winehouse will not be performing at this year's Grammy Awards because her request for a visa has been turned down by the US Embassy in London, according to her publicist.
The Outside Organization, which counts the troubled retro-soul singer among its clients, said in a statement: "Amy has been progressing well since entering a rehabilitation clinic two weeks ago and although disappointed with the decision has accepted the ruling and will be concentrating on her recovery."
The 24-year-old singer and her acclaimed 'Back to Black' album are nominated in six categories for the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday.
Organisers of the music awards are now arranging for the singer to perform via satellite.
Since the album's US release last year, she has cancelled a slew of appearances amid reports of drug use.

Lil Wayne's New Album And Upcoming Film Focus On His Hometown, New Orleans
For now, Lil Wayne doesn't have aspirations to be a full-time actor, but he definitely was happy to score a role in the new film "Hurricane Season." The movie centers on a New Orleans high school basketball team called the Patriots in the wake of Hurricane Katrina.
"My character's name is Lamont," Wayne explained while sitting on the set in the middle of a gymnasium. "The character is, I would say, a hustler. He goes to the school. He always bets against the school. He's trying to make the best bet. Anything to get money. He sells shoes. ... Towards the end of the movie, he makes his way to becoming a full-blown Patriots fan and representing the school he's with. He enjoys the Patriots as much as everybody else at the end of the day."
The film also stars Academy Award winner Forest Whitaker, as well as Wayne's longtime friend Bow Wow. While Bow will tell you that his priorities have changed from music to films, Weezy is fully enthralled with his microphone.
"If it comes around, it's cool," Wayne said about future Hollywood parts, noting the differences between acting and making music. "I'm not going to be trying out for no roles. I'm not going to be at castings."
Wayne did say he is enjoying making the movie and loves the fact that it actually is being filmed in New Orleans. And one of Tha Carter III's most stirring moments comes via "Tie My Hands," a musical commentary on his hometown that features Robin Thicke.
"I'm just speaking about the city in general," he said of the track. "How we were before the hurricane and how we are after. [I'm saying] everything about the city that somebody that's not from here can't do. I'm from here, born and raised. Telling them what I think about the situation. The way this movie ties into it is that I think the song is positive and gives motivation."
Wayne's Tha Carter III is in stores — finally — on Tuesday (June 10).

Amy Winehouse - Fielder-civil Changes Trial Pleas To Guilty

His co-defendant Michael Brown, 25 has pleaded guilty to a charge of grievous bodily harm, while Brown, Anthony Kelly, 25, and James Kennedy, 19, have all pleaded guilty to perverting the course of justice.
King is also on trial for attempting to pervert the course of justice.
Meanwhile, Radford has now allowed media outlets to report on an allegation that King could have been subjected to intimidation or duress, according to Britain's Sky News website.
The news comes one week after the trial kicked off last Monday (02Jun08).
All five men will be sentenced at a later date.
