So i know I'm past the premiere, but I'm still going to finish haha!
So coming in at #3 on my countdown is someone that nobody guessed.....It's Nakomis Dedmon from BB5 and BB All Stars!
Nakomis is one of my top 3 favorite players because she had an amazing underdog story, fantastic strategic abilities, and was all around a fun contestant to watch. Nakomis entered the BB5 house the outsider. Everyone thought she would be evicted week 1 because she was different. Nakomis didn't let her unusual style hold her back, she was herself the entire time, and people began to love that! She survived eviction week one and went on to become one of the most powerful players in the game. She did well in competitions, she had strong relationships, and she always had a plan. Nakomis is famous for helping develop the "six finger plan" to backdoor Jase. It worked like a charm and Nakomis eliminated the biggest threat in the game. Unfortunately for Nakomis, Karen was taken out at the F5 instead of Cowboy, and Cowboy held the fact that he was Nakomis' target against her and evicted her at the final 4. Had Cowboy been thinking clearly he would have evicted Diane, who most likely would have taken Drew to the end over Cowboy anyway. Nakomis returned for All Stars and was sadly taken out in week 2 because she had proven herself a strong strategist in BB5. Had she lasted longer, Nakomis could have easily become my all time favorite player!
Favorite Nakomis moments: The six finger plan, her talk about sexuality, her unique style, her quirky personality, "cool beans", her alliance with Karen, getting voted back into the house by America for All Stars
Coming in at number 2 is................. NOBODY! I can't choose between my final two contestants for my all time favorite, so they will share the number one spot together :)
The first of my two co-favorites is Daniele Donato from BB8 and BB13! Daniele is one of my two favorites because she was never afraid to stand up to house, she was a competition beast, and she never gave up. In BB8 she put aside personal feelings to work with her dad. Due to her numerous competition wins she was able to keep them both safe. She played a great social game until her dad put a huge target on both of their backs by getting in numerous fights. Daniele managed to reform an alliance with Jessica and Eric to help get herself farther in the game and then she cut them the very next week. Daniele was never afraid to play hard and i loved her BB8 game. I love Daniele even more after her BB13 appearance. Yes, she may have played a bit sloppier, but we saw the rise of an even more determined player. Daniele played the game hard and went after big targets. She used her golden key to her advantage to form strong bonds with the new players and when the house divided she still had allies on her side. Daniele on critical HOHs and she stood up to the vets who thought they were running the house. Sadly she would be taken out by Jeff (but avenged by Kalia and Porsche the same night!). I respect her attitude towards the game, she realizes it's a game and left with no bitterness or hard feelings. I love Daniele!
Favorite Daniele moments: Her relationship with Nick, turning on Eric and Jessica, her rabbit costume :), all her POV wins in BB8 to tie Janelle's record, HOH wins in BB13, taking out Brendon twice, standing up to the other Vets, calling Brendon "Skype boy", her positive attitude upon being evicted
And my other favorite is none other than the Janelle Pierzina from BB6, BB All Stars, and BB14!
Janelle is flawless. She is the comp queen of Big Brother and she always played the game hard. She came into BB6 with Ashlea (who was evicted week 1). She was immediately seen as a target for the rest of the game. She managed to keep herself safe through her social game and numerous comp wins. She helped lead the charge against the nerd-herd and she took out Jennifer(who looks "like a clown"). Janelle would place third when Ivette evicted her (ewwwww). America fell in love with Janelle in BB6 and voted her back into the house for BB All Stars. Janelle was once again an immediate target and she had to win competitions to keep her safety. She won way to safety for the first 4 weeks, at that point Janelle started to branch off from the BB6 alliance and strike other deals. Janelle's social game kept her safe when the POV couldnt. Her best move was aligning with Chilltown. Boogie could have easily gotten Janelle out with the Coup D'etat, but Janelle played her cards right and was seen as an asset for him. Janelle would once again place third :( Janelle came back for BB14 as a coach and she was by far the best coach. She kept all of her players safe they were never targets for eviction. I think Janelle could have been the winning coach if the reset had not happened! Unfortunately Janelle was backdoored and never had an opportunity to save herself. Her reputation as a strong player did her in :(
Favorite Janelle moments: Tormenting the nerd herd, "Give me the key bitch!", All of her comp wins, her bond with Kaysar, her bond with Howie, getting voted into the All Star house, her relationship with Will, every time she returned to the house for a competition, coming back as a coach and calling mike boogie a douche bag on live television, and so many more but I'm too tired to think right now lol.
Daniele and her dad were supposed to be on BB6, i can't help but wonder if Daniele and Janelle would have both been in the same alliance and dominated and come back for all stars together, ahhh what could have been.
So there you go, my top 40 favorite players :) Hope you enjoyed my countdown :)
