Two
Celebrities Eliminated from Costa Rica
By K.C. Morgan
At the beginning of Thursday’s I’m a
Celebrity, Get Me Out Here, the celebs were
all abuzz with the partially-revealed
elimination results. Janice Dickinson is not
in the top two; Patti Blagojevich is not in
the bottom two. Or so it stood Wednesday
night. At the end of the episode, two would
leave the competition.
The hosts returned the next morning to
reveal another twist: the teams have been
merged into one group. This means challenges
will be conducted individually. Janice
Dickinson was in a very bad mood after it
was discovered that she was not in the top
two. Holly Montag confronted Dickinson about
her grumpy attitude and the two were easily
able to bury the hatchet, though Janice
poked fun at Holly’s reaction during her
confession a little later.
The first individual food trial was Mud Pit
Mania. Each celeb was asked to dress in
wrestling clothes for the event, and all
seemed to have fun getting themselves ready.
The food prize for this challenge was pizza
- quite the treat for several half-starved
celebs.
Each would get three minutes in a large mud
pit containing only three hidden stars for
lucky contenders to find. The pit was also
filled with random plastic balls and other
objects…not to mention several jungle
creatures in the form of small crocodiles.
Janice Dickinson was very frightened of the
crocs and bowed out of the challenge early.
She was so perturbed, she went running off
into the jungle to get away. Stephen Baldwin
seemed to be having fun, throwing items from
the pool and grunting. Sanjaya Malakar was
the first to find a star, guaranteeing
himself a spot in the pizza party.
Patti Blagojevich also came up with a star
to free herself from the mud, with Lou
Diamond Phillips following after. Covered in
crap, a laughing Lou gave host Myleene Klass
a big hug to celebrate his victory. “Geez,
is there anything you don’t win?” Torrie
Wilson wondered of Phillips.
For the first live shot, the hosts strolled
into camp to reveal some of the evening’s
elimination results. “Lou and John have
immunity,” Damien Fahey reminded them.
Sanjaya Malakar was the first to be declared
safe, and he let out a sigh of relief.
Torrie Wilson was also pronounced safe, but
Holly Montag was eliminated. This left
Stephen, Janice and Patti wondering which of
them would be the next to leave the show.
The three-person pizza party was enjoyed
thoroughly while the others enjoyed
vegetables with their rice and beans. Janice
tried to take all the broccoli and zucchini
for herself, but John said when the food
arrived in a bag marked with her name then
it could be just hers - otherwise, food in
the basket means it’s for everyone. “This
stuff that came in the basket, all of us are
going to eat some,” he told her.
“Be a primadonna somewhere else, sister,”
John Salley added.
“He scares me,” Janice cried in the
confessional later.
The second live shot showed the hosts going
back to the camp to deliver the bad news.
Stephen Baldwin was pronounced safe, and I
breathed a sigh of relief. He’s both funny
and entertaining, and I don’t want to lose
him yet. Janice Dickinson was then
eliminated, and the celebs lost their most
annoying cast member. No more fights about
vegetables - or mysteriously missing granola
bars - now.
The celebs also got letters from home. John
decided that they would be read aloud by
other celebs than the ones to whom they were
written. Lou read the NBA star’s letter,
which offered some basketball-related advice
from his wife. Patti read a letter from
Sanjaya’s mother, which talked about his
grandfather. John read the letter from Rod
R. Blagojevich, Blago to his supporters,
Patti’s husband. Torrie Wilson read the
letter from Lou’s wife, which offered words
of encouragement. Stephen read a letter from
Torrie’s boyfriend, who talked about how
proud he is of her.
On Monday’s episode, the two celebs with the
lowest amount of votes must go head-to-head
in a chug-a-bug challenge, drinking
disgusting milkshakes comprised of NBC only
knows what. To save your favorite celeb from
such a fate, call in your votes or log into
the NBC Web site to make your wishes known.
At the end of the episode, Janice and Holly
sat down to talk with the hosts. “I can’t
wait to shower and bathe and eat,” Holly
told them. “I’ll miss everybody in camp,”
she said. The Montag sister denied that
there is a romance between herself and
Sanjaya Malakar, saying they’re only
friends. Janice praised the beauty of Costa
Rica.
As for next week’s outcome, Holly predicted
that Sanjaya will win the competition, while
Janice believed it will be Stephen Baldwin.
