Big Brother USA is back and it’s bigger than ever. For the first time, I’m live-blogging the BB15 premiere. Later this week, I’m doing a full video recap on BB&J so you guys better subscribe.

Here we go!

Gap 1

Unable to catch first 10 minutes.

So first time in a very long time, a live audience is present for the premiere.

Can I just say I’m loving the Big Brother House’s frontyard?

It’s time to meet the houseguests!

So first impressions, GinaMarie is the houseguest to hate. David’s a boring lad of muscles. He won’t last long. As for the rest, well it’s a long shot.

Gap 2

First alliance: Howard, Jeremy, Spencer

Second: Jessie aligning with David and Jeremy

McCrae comes in.

Julie calls in the HG’s to announce the news.

3 noms format has been announced. HG’s got thrown off by the news.

HOH will still nominated 2 HGs for eviction.

Julie won’t tell how 3rd nom will be made later in the episode.

Nick is noisy.

Gap 3

I like the BB house’s front lawn set looks awesome.

HOH competition: Endurance, “Popsicle”. HG’s are required to hold on a large popsicle stick for as long as they could. Last one standing

Judd first one out. Howard is second (threw it). Candice is out.

A giant tongue comes out to lick on the HG’s.

After Candice took notice on her face, Judd figures Elissa is indeed rachel’s sister. He decided to keep the infor for himself for now.

Amanda’s out. Followed by Spencer. Jessie’s out. Elissa’s down then GinaMarie. Andy’s out.

6 guys left.

Kaitlin is down after 2 hours. Aaryn is the last girl standing next with 4 guys.

Gap 4

At 3 hour and 12 minutes, Aaryn falls off and 4 HG’s still standing.

McCrae is a surprise endurance player.

Julie proposes a compromise to any of the HG’s with a Not Ever Pass, found in one of two boxes. David takes her offer but ends up choosing the wrong box.

Jeremy falls but took the Not Ever Pass.

McCrae and Nick negotiate. McCrae is the first HOH of the season.

Hopefully McCrae last beyond Week 1 as he now has a target on his back.

 Gap 5

Julie reveals third nomination twist details via the Big Brother MVP, chosen by a public vote. MVP will nominate the third HG in secret. The means the MVP has the benefit of not getting blood on his or her hands.

HOH McCrae feels worried and he should be.

Big Brother reveals how things will go in Week 1. Sunday June 30, the show will air the first food competition (Have/Have Not) as well as the first nomination ceremony then on Tuesday, it will be the Power of Veto competition and the reveal of Week 1’s MVP to the viewers. Wednesday, the show goes live for eviction night.

This will leaves us guessing who McCrae put up for eviction until this Sunday. Then again, I have my fellow BB fans to keep me spoiled on what’s going on at the live feeds.

Cheers for a great Big Brother season!
