Big Brother 18 live feeds August 24 featured houseguests pondering decisions about eviction targets and elective surgeries, as Paul decided to preemptively strike and prepare for the worst should Victor, his closest ally in the game, be evicted.

Joker’s Updates live feed spoilers revealed that Natalie Negrotti is the week 9 Head of Household (HOH), and Michelle Meyer was awarded America’s Care Package making her the co-HOH. Natalie nominated Victor Arroyo for eviction, while Michelle chose Paul Abrahamian to put on the chopping block.

As fate would have it, Paul won the Power of Veto (POV) and saved himself from eviction. Because Paul was Michelle’s nominee, she was tasked with replacing him and did so with Corey Brooks, Joker’s Updates revealed.

The initial plan for eviction this week was to send Paul to jury, but the plot was foiled when he won POV. Thus, the house set its sites on Victor, not only because he is the closest person to Paul in the Big Brother 18 game, but he is also a strong competitor.

Despite this, both Natalie and Michelle have vacillated between Victor and Corey as eviction targets, mainly due to discussions regarding Victor being a good person, and Corey as a possible asset.

At around 4:20 p.m. Big Brother 18 house time, Natalie approached her showmance partner, James Huling, and asked him if he would vote to save Victor if she wanted him to. As seen on CBS All Access live feeds, James seemed a bit perplexed and wondered why. Natalie noted that although it might be better for James to keep Corey and his Big Brother girlfriend, Nicole Franzel, it might be better for her to ensure Victor stays in the game.

Natalie further expressed concern that if Corey remains in the Big Brother 18 house, he may target her if he garners any kind of power next week. It was evident, as seen on live feeds, that James wanted to avoid answering Natalie’s question altogether, which seemed to aggravate Natalie a bit.

Natalie confessed to James she still has a soft spot for Victor, but would surely vote the way James wanted her to if the situation was reversed and he was HOH.

According to certain things Natalie has revealed to other players, including James, on live feeds over the course of the Big Brother 18 game, Natalie and Victor had a brief showmance the first week of the game before live feeds were active, as reported by the Inquisitr. She has commented that Victor hurt her, as he decided to end their short relationship, presumably wanting to focus on his game and not a showmance.

James basically accused Natalie of playing with emotion and as the two talked, she eventually began reconsidering her notions about saving Victor due to his closeness to Paul, who she has very little fondness for. James reassured Natalie on live feeds that the best thing for their game is to send Victor packing.

Later, however, at about 1:35 a.m., Michelle and Natalie lay in the Big Brother 18 HOH bed and contemplated game moves. Michelle said she thinks Corey should head to jury because he’s a physical threat. According to Joker’s Updates, Natalie stated a few minutes later that she will tell James she wants Victor to stay, but knows James will vote the way he wants to.

The two women continued talking, saying Victor is trustworthy, and having him in the Big Brother 18 house would be beneficial for each of their games. As they drifted off to sleep, it appeared they have plans to speak to Victor before making a final decision about his status.

Prior to this, at around 12:50 a.m., with James still present, Natalie mentioned how hurt she was that Paul presumably made fun of her breasts and called her “FT,” as previously reported by the Inquisitr, and started thinking Victor took part in it. She told Michelle and James that after Big Brother 18 ends, she is going to get even larger breasts. Michelle asked, according to Joker’s Updates, if she could get in on a deal for bigger breasts as well.

In addition, earlier in the evening, Paul began planning for Victor’s eviction, deciding to try and ensure his safety is he’s on his own after tonight. At almost 8 p.m., Victor, at Paul’s instruction, could be seen on live feeds bashing Paul to James, Natalie, and Michelle, saying Paul is aligning with Nicole and Corey against the others.

Victor told them if James does not win HOH week 10 (Natalie and Michelle are exempt as outgoing HOH and co-HOH), one of them is going to jury. It appears the scheme is intended to turn Nicole and Corey, with Paul as an ally, against James, Michelle, and Natalie.

As Victor did his part, Paul began trying to buddy up to Nicole and Corey to ensure his plan is successful.

More wheeling and dealing is sure to go on today and right up until the live eviction takes place. Thus, until either Victor or Corey is evicted, nothing is set in stone. Nevertheless, one thing that’s certain is the first five jurors, including tonight’s evictee, will battle it out to return to the Big Brother 18 game. The look on the houseguests faces, who don’t know about the return, will know doubt be priceless when a juror walks back into the house.
