Andy Dehnart will be covering Big Brother on a weekly basis and checking in regarding all the latest drama in the house.

Big Brother 11‘ has lost its first houseguest, and that is Braden, the model/actor who once appeared nude in a TV show, and more recently appeared using bigoted language on a reality show. He was evicted only after HOH Jessie cast a tie-breaking vote against him, because the other houseguests split their votes between Braden and Chima.

In Tuesday and Thursday’s episode, producers showed fights between houseguests but edited out bigoted comments. Braden directed a derogatory, racist word toward Kevin, while Jeff used and defended gay slurs both in his confrontation with Russell and afterwards.

That’s why before the houseguests voted, Chima said, “Anyone who aligns themself with a racist and a misogynist, you deserve to go home.” But the network censored part of what her speech, apparently because she pointed out that Braden previously referred to host Julie Chen as a “whore” too. Unfortunately, once he was outside, Julie Chen ignored Braden’s comments and instead asked him questions as if he was in a beauty pageant.

Earlier in the week, Jessie’s ego grew as large as his body with his power, and after nominating Chima (as a pawn) and Lydia, he changed his mind and back-doored Braden after Russell won and used the veto to save Lydia.

Besides aligning himself with Russell, Natalie, and Lydia, he also made out with Lydia, which may be this season’s first sex act.

Elsewhere, Ronnie the superfan gamer was totally outsmarted by jock Russell, who easily figured out that Ronnie had betrayed their alliance by alerting Braden to the back-door plan, even though Ronnie is still convinced he’s a great player. If anything, the Big Brother house is good at fueling delusion.

Full episodes of ‘Big Brother 11′ are on Fancast.
