Thank you, the voting morons, who have just voted out the most entertaining housemate >:(
Wait for the complaints of "BB`s got really boring now" by the very same people.
Completely agree. Just look at the list of people who`ve been voted out this year...it sure would be more entertaining if they were still in the house and the likes of Imogen and Susie were out. I say it every year, but BB has one massive flaw...the voting process. We should vote for who we want to keep IN rather than who we want to vote OUT. That way Susie would have probably gone last night. Or Michael. I presume this system makes Endemol the most amount of money, otherwise they`d definitely change the system. Surely they can`t be happy that Nikki has been voted out with 5 weeks still to go? :/
Yeah, I bet the BB producers are sick right now. That little "punishment" stunt really turned round and bit them on the arse. I`m sure they`ll lose viewers >:(
I still love BB, but it really frustrates me because it could be so much better if the makers simply knew their arse from their elbow. They try their hardest to stuff it up every year!
yup, I`m gutted, she was extremely entertaining and yes, I don`t think I`ll watch now. apparently she got 37.2 % of the vote... which I think was rigged... but who knows......

i don`t really watch it but i don`t get how u guys (and all my friends who watch BB) are always annoyed when someone you all like (i mean i hear the same thing from so many people) gets voted out, my question is who is doing the voting then... :/ is there any chance of vote rigging by endemol, or is it just that you guys don`t vote?
ps. i`m not having a pop, i`m genuinely curious, one of the main reasons i stopped watching big brother in the past was the scandalous eviction of Jon Tickle! (even though i did vote to keep him in)

It could easily be rigged (and was when they put Susie in), but I`m not sure why they`d want to get rid of Nikki. Far more likely is that the younger end of the voting public don`t think it through logically and vote for her because she`s annoying (and bypass the fact that despite this, at least she`s entertaining).
As strange as it sounds, I think she would have had a real chance of winning if she`d stayed until the end. Certainly top 3. As it is, she was a character who was loved and hated in almost equal proportions. Therefore people who hated her obviously voted her out, while people who loved her spread out their votes over the other 10 housemates who were up for eviction.
It`s a s***e system.

Exactamundo. You can`t vote to keep people in.
Didn`t vote btw. Never do. I might be sad but I`m not stupid :)
Although Nikki could be entertaining, especially at first, she was also very annoying and becoming more and more bitchy by the day. Her Diary Room antics were also becoming more and more rehearesed. This past week, she was almost self destructing in the house. Fed by Jayne`s paranoia, she turned on Pete, Ash and Jennie and became quite nasty and vindictive.
She almost walked out one morning this week, and ended up having to spend the whole of the morning in the Diary Room (none of this was shown on the Highlights show). As a result of this, BB tried to help her mood by putting some exercise equipment into the house (Nikki uses exercise as a means of controlling her emotions), but it didn`t seem to help much. And by Friday, she was swearing on her Mother`s life that if Ash stayed that night, she would walk in the morning.
As I said, Nikki could be very entertaining, and there are people in the house who i believe add less to the show than she did, but to try and pretend it was some sort of fix, or that there were no valid reasons to vote Nikki out, is IMHO blinkered. Especially when you bare in mind that Nikki has never been as popular with the voting public as some people would have you believe (e.g. when she was up against Sam, she only won by 5% of the vote, even though Sam was a new HM and had a lot of negative qualities).
