ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: What did you make of Cameron's reign of chaos and not even letting anyone know what he was doing along the way?

JULIE CHEN MOONVES: He's good at this game. Then again, it's easy to keep your mouth shut when you have no allies left in the game. That serviced him well this last week as HOH.

Cory worked the house to flip the vote on Izzy, but it's America that has been trying for weeks to make people realize the threat Izzy and Cirie posed. Is she this week's stealth MVP?

She really is. She got her way. One by one, she got in people's heads and got them to talk (Cameron and Matt) and went back with vital information to Cory and got him to then do her bidding for her. He is a debate champ and got the others on board with her plan to evict Izzy.

Cirie had this game on cruise control. What does losing a big ally and having the house wake up and realize the power she had do to her game?

She definitely has a target on her back, but don't count her out. Her son is a strong competitor and will shield her. Plus, she has the gift of being so likable and kind and she isn't a threat in terms of being a comp beast.

Finally, If you had to accept one of this week's Big Brother punishments — the Piggy Pals, the Tandem Kayak, or the Josh Duhamel-a-Maniac — which would you take on and why?

That's a no brainer: Josh Duhamel-a-Maniac. No sweat. It's the easiest of the three. The Piggy Pals had to transfer all that dirt and the Tandem Kayak offers zero privacy and is physically burdensome.
