The most predictableBig Brotherseason finished in the least predictable way.
How do both elated winner Josh and mystified runner-up Paul feel about the final verdict?
What would have happened had Christmas been in the final two?
And what went down between finalists and jury membersafterthe cameras turned off last night?
(you could alsoread what Julie Chen said about the finale here.)
It hurts my heart.
It was really, really difficult for me."
Christmas on voting for Paul over Josh:“Paul was always five steps ahead.
Josh also said he was going to take me to final two.
So knowing that, it’s a bittersweet pill to swallow.”
Coming that close and falling short by one vote was definitely not easy."
She did the exact opposite, it seems like.
So I guess I had the numbers wrong in my head.
So it worked."
I would have lost regardless, really."
And hopefully they can see my gameplay and get rid of the emotions.'
Cause I thought that was the point of jury roundtables.
I guess not."
Paul on Cody being awarded America’s Favorite Houseguest:“Very, very bizarre.
But kudos to America, I guess.”
With me and Paul, I was a bit more straightforward, I said how it was…
I was in shock.
I thought once Christmas' vote came in I was like, I’m done.'
I’m like Christmas didn’t vote for me?
Paul won the game.'
And then the votes started dropping and I couldn’t believe what was happening.
And then I get Cody’s vote and I was like WHAT?!?'
I was in complete shock."
And I spoke my mind and was straightforward to their face.
I wasn’t doing manipulating or doing things behind their back.
And I think Mark and Cody appreciated that, and that’s what got me the win."
It wasn’t because Paul told me.
I did it for my game.
I literally stood up and I was like, this is really happening.
As I’m speaking, I go blank and I’m like, Josh, snap out of it.
I didn’t even have the words or thoughts.
I was in shock mode.
I completely froze and I couldn’t even speak."
