Big Brother's Christmas Abbott Is Open to Having a Relationship With Paul Abrahamian

More than friendship? Big Brother's Christmas Abbott says she has "no idea" what's going on between her and Paul Abrahamian — but she's willing to explore it.
"Yeah," the 33-year-old exclusively tells Us Weekly whether she's open to having a relationship with Abrahamian outside the house. "You're spending 92 days with somebody and I think we had a real connection night one." 

 
Abbott never told the clothing designer, 24, how she felt as they competed on the CBS series, though. "We had a game to play," she explains. "We developed a really true friendship and I think that it's special in its own way. The Big Brother house is different from the real world so we haven't talked, we haven't seen each other, it's been a whirlwind. I have no idea. There are things that were happening in life before and things that are happening in life after and who is to say. I'm coming out of the house without expectations so I have no idea."
The Virginia native placed third on season 19, a triumph after breaking her foot early on when fellow houseguest Jason Dent landed on it during a piggyback ride. Abbott doesn't regret returning to the show after getting surgery, even though she had to sit out during a couple of competitions.
"Not at all, not one minute. There is no way and no how in my life I would ever regret that decision. If they had deemed it impossible for me to come back that would have been the most devastating thing that has happened to me," she tells Us. "CBS and Big Brother believed in me enough to allow me to stay and there was no way that I was going to let them down or myself or my fanbase. To show that you can still persevere when you get a really sh-tty situation. You can still do well and make positive of life. And that's not with just a broke foot — that's with anything. Life is going to be sh-tty sometimes and it's going to get even sh-ttier. It's how you decide how to deal with it. I wanted to play Big Brother and I wanted to go as far as I possibly could. And unfortunately it wasn't final two because I do believe that I would have won."
In the end, Abbott's BFF in the house, Josh Martinez, took Abrahamian to final two. She didn't win any money, but she was the last woman standing.
For more, read the rest of her Q&A below:
US: Are you shocked that Josh won?
CA: No, I'm so proud of him. I'm shocked he didn't take me to final two. I felt like I kept my composure on stage but then when everybody went on stage I just hugged my mom and sobbed for five minutes. It was a really hard night. And it's not about the winning or losing it's just the entire 92 days coming to an end and you're out and you're seeing people. And you're like, 'Oh my God, the world is actually going on.' It's so overwhelming on so many different facets.
US: Were you going to take Josh if you won?
CA: I refused to make that decision until I needed to in that moment because I really didn't want that emotional burden. And fortunately I wasn't given that opportunity to take on that emotional burden. I wanted to make sure that I had a clear understanding and make sure that I didn't promise something that I couldn't deliver. I never made that decision and I'm upset but also grateful that I didn't have to make that decision. I'm still not going to make that decision. 
       
US: Are you angry at all?
CA: No, I'm not angry at all. That's not even a possibility. I advocated for Josh to make the best game decision and I was hoping that he knew — I knew that the decision for him was to take Paul. He had a better chance at winning against Josh. But I was hoping that he would stay true to his word. I was disappointed when he didn't choose me but I also understand. There is no animosity. There's disappointment and a little heartbreak, but the deal was that whoever won [was going to buy] tickets for all three of us to travel the world together. And so I looked at him and I said, 'This one is on you buddy!' [Laughs] 'I'm sending you the itinerary next week.'
US: You voted for Paul to win. What was your deciding factor and did you know for a while you were going to vote that way?
CA: No, that was an absolute last-minute decision. I knew that if Josh didn't pick me that he was breaking his promise to me. There were a couple of factors. One, I watched Paul play the sh-t out of that game from day one and I saw what he was doing. I wasn't blind to it. But I was OK with it because he still protected me the entire time. He protected me from day one aggressively so I knew that he had my back. I was a pawn for him and he was a pawn for me. And so I just saw that he was working that really hard and he had a big target. With Josh he had a lot of emotional burden coming in, he had a huge transformation and we personally connected a lot. But he would also go off and do his own thing in the middle of a plan.
US: Were you surprised Paul had other final deals? Do you think he would have brought you to final two?
CA: I'm not shocked. It was smart for him. He had to. I think I was optimistic that he would choose me but also realistic that he had a better chance at winning against Josh. I felt honestly that either one of them would have a stronger chance at winning against each other. And the fact that within the last week in the house nothing was mentioned to me subtly or directly I knew what was going on. I didn't want to force something. It wasn't me giving up at all. My last speech was just me taking the opportunity to show my gratitude for the game and the people that I played with and to give Josh an opportunity to stick to his word.
US: Paul told me that you definitely would have won against Josh. Do you think you would have?
CA: I do. I didn't have to ruffle too many feathers. If I argued with people it was sound logic. I didn't make it personal, I didn't escalate it past where it needed to be and they couldn't come back. Josh made a lot of enemies, he pissed off a lot of people. Paul pissed off a lot of people in a different way. I believe that if either one of them would have taken me I would have won. So I'm sitting here with third place, no cash, no American Favorite and knowing that I just forfeited $50,000 and $500,000. I'm not angry about it, but my heart is a little broken.
US: Were you shocked that Cody Nickson won America's Favorite?
CA: Yes! He was such a d-ckhead. I believe that if I sit down and have a real conversation with Cody outside the game we have a lot to talk about. But inside the game — everything that came out of his mouth was a lie. He lied to every single person in that house. He manipulated everybody in the house. He flipped the house on me. He backdoored me, he blindsided me. And then he wouldn't even defend his position. As a game player — worst game player ever. I'm not exactly sure what America saw but I know what I experienced in the house and there is no way I would have ever given him my vote.
US: Favorite and least favorite houseguest?
CA: My favorite is Josh. He just always woke up so jubilant. His spirit is my spirit. We were like two spirit animals together. But I couldn't be that way though because I had to be the quiet bitch in the corner moping about her foot. [Laughs] Least favorite — I have a list. I can only say one? I got along with her, but Raven [Walton], please, shut the f-ck up. Life is not about you and we know you weren't in the Olympics. Allow people to have their moment. You don't have to one-up everybody. She is a beautiful person as she is but unfortunately she feels the need to always one-up somebody. I would have to say that I'm disappointed.
US: Would you return for another season?
CA: Absolutely, yes. I'm hoping that I could return full throttle and give you guys the whole Christmas experience because bitch had to tame down her personality a lot when I broke my foot. If I went back I would just go in and be a nightmare.
US: What song would you choose for your exit walk out?
CA: Oh, "Crazy Bitch" by Buckcherry.
US: In one word, how would you describe your season of Big Brother?
CA: Bizarre! It was magical, bizarre and the most exhilarating summer of my life.

Re: [BigBrother_Survivor] 'Dancing with the Stars' Recap: Ballroom Night and the First Elimination

 

With The Voice back I doubt I'll be watching I didn't see any of the show last night.

 Yup
IMO the right one went home. Tonite I do think the other one
that was in the bottom 2 will go tonite.
 'Dancing
with the Stars' Recap: Ballroom Night and the First
Elimination
Monday,
September 25, 2017
John Kubicek
Senior
Writer, BuddyTV
Dancing
with the Stars is heading into overdrive for the second
week of competition on season 25. There are two nights, two
routines, two eliminations and four hours to fill.



For
Monday, it's all about classic ballroom styles with
Waltzes, Tangos, Quicksteps and Foxtrots. And by the end of
the night, one pair will be going home and denied the
opportunity to perform their Tuesday night Latin routine
that they've been preparing for all week.


LIVE...from
Hollywood...this is my Dancing
with the Stars live blog.

Debbie Gibson and Alan Bersten: Quickstep

She
was very nervous and emotional last week. Now she's more
confident and she has great energy, but her legs and feet
are rather sloppy. Len Goodman says she had the speed, but
not the control. The other judges agree that she was fun,
but lacked some technique.

Judges'
Scores: 7+6+7=20

She's
up 3 points from last week and the judges are clearly going
to be more generous tonight.

Nikki Bella and Artem Chigvintsev: Waltz

This
week she wants to channel her elegant and classy nana to
show a different side of herself. She succeeds with a slow
and sensitive routine that flows beautifully, but seems a
little light on the content. The judges love this new
version of her and the trust she showed in her partner. Len
wanted more in hold, but he liked the lyrical lines.

Judges'
Scores: 7+7+7=21

She's
up 1 point.

Lindsey Stirling and Mark Ballas: Quickstep

The
concept is that they start as caterpillars and turn into
butterflies. It's good to have Mark back because we get
this kind of imagination, and the judges all agree. The
dancing is speedy and fine, but she seems a little more
stiff than last week and she's a tad hunched over. Len
doesn't like that they didn't maintain the hold.

Judges'
Scores: 7+7+7=21

They're
actually down 1 point.

Barbara Corcoran and Keo Motsepe: Tango

Barbara
opens up about being dyslexic as a child and she's used
to being at the bottom. She's driven to prove that
she's not stupid. She doesn't have any real
musicality and her huge smile doesn't quite fit the
routine. It's just not very good. The judges think
she's better than last week, but I kind of disagree.
Barbara continues to talk back to the judges, which is not a
good look.

Judges'
Scores: 6+5+6=17

She's
up 3 points.

Nick Lachey and Peta Murgatroyd: Foxtrot

The
married couples have a foot rubbing bet over who does
better, and Nick an Peta want to beat Vanessa and Maks.
It's sweet, but Nick is still kind of boxy. He dances
more like a football player than a boy band singer. Peta had
a wardrobe issue halfway through with her dress getting
caught, and that threw off the second half. Carrie Ann Inaba
thinks he's a little too tight and needs to loosen up.
Len continues to hate benches and thought it was too
fragile.

Judges'
Scores: 7+6+6=19

He's
up 1 point.

Drew Scott and Emma Slater: Quickstep

On
Sunday he pulled his hamstring, which cut into their
rehearsal time. He's much better than last week with
energy and lots of delightful flailing. His limbs are still
way too long, but they made it work in this routine. The
judges think he's lanky and gangly, but they like his
enthusiasm.

Judges'
Scores: 7+6+7=20

He's
up 4 points, the best improvement so far.

Vanessa Lachey and Maksim Chmerkovskiy: Foxtrot

Maks
is very intense, but her dad was in the military, so
she's used to it. Her heel cut her toe in rehearsals.
She's good and has great sass, but too much of the start
is her with some back-up guys. The judges really love it,
with Carrie Ann calling her liquid gold. Vanessa continues
to be totally insane in her interviews, in the best possible
way, referring to her partner as "Maks Daddy."

Judges'
Scores: 8+8+8=24

She's
up 3 points and gets the highest score of the season so far,
plus Bruno's first 8.

Frankie Muniz and Witney Carson: Tango

Witney
the drill sergeant now expects more from him, but he broke
his back 8 years ago and it makes it hard. It's an
awesome and intense routine with lots of precision. Bruno
loves that he didn't miss a step with a crazy song.
Carrie Ann agrees that it was powerful and fiery. Len
thought it was too aggressive.

Judges'
Scores: 8+7+8=23

He's
also up 4 points.

Terrell Owens and Cheryl Burke: Foxtrot

He
says that he knows he's more than 1 point better than
Barbara, and he's not wrong. He gets frustrated in
rehearsals very easily. Their dance is very sexy, but I find
him kind of "meh" as a dancer. Len thought it was
too raunchy, more bedroom than ballroom. Bruno calls it a
Sextrot. Tom Bergeron voices the concern that he was
underscored last week because he was first.

Judges'
Scores: 7+6+7=20

He's
up 5 points, the new biggest improvement.

Sasha Pieterse and Gleb Savchenko: Viennese Waltz

They
work on her ballroom face and her parents show up in
rehearsals, which adds even more criticism on her technique.
I hope her parents get to perform a routine this season,
maybe in the finale. The routine is thoroughly mediocre and
forgettable. Len complains about all of the swooshy ballroom
routines. Bruno didn't like her arms, but Carrie Ann
did.

Judges'
Scores: 8+8+7=23

WTF?
She's up 5 points too.

Victoria Arlen and Val Chmerkovskiy: Tango

She's
so positive and joyful about everything. Their dance is
intense and powerful with strong moves and a bad-ass
routine. It's the polar opposite of her light and fun
dance from last week, which is great. She's definitely
becoming a huge threat to win. The judges love her
technique.

Judges'
Scores: 8+8+8=24

She's
also up by 5 points, making it three in a row. The judges
are getting very generous as the night goes on.

Derek Fisher and Sharna Burgess: Foxtrot

Derek's
mom is here and Mama Fish has more charisma than most of
these stars, including Derek. The dance is very quaint and
he has a lot of fun with it. Sometimes he cuts his
extensions too short. Carrie Ann points out that he dances
too small and needs to spread it out more.

Judges'
Scores: 6+6+7=19

He's
up 1 point.

Jordan Fisher and Lindsay Arnold: Viennese Waltz

They
know that the bar is high for them, but they want to do even
better. It's a very Contemporary-style dance, but
absolutely beautiful. He moves so smoothly and effortlessly,
and it's just fun to watch him. The judges love his
lyricism, but they want more ballroom nuance.

Judges'
Scores: 8+8+8=24

He's
up 2 points and tied for the top of the leaderboard once
again.

THE
RESULTS

It's
time to send one couple home.

The
first couple IN JEOPARDY is...Terrell and Cheryl
The
second couple IN JEOPARDY is...Barbara and Keo

That's
no surprise since they were the bottom two last week.

Barbara Corcoran and Keo Motsepe ARE ELIMINATED!

Poor
Keo, this is the third time he's been the first one
eliminated out of six times as a pro. And two other times he
was the second one eliminated. What does this hottie need to
do to be given a partner with some actual potential?

THE
LEADERBOARD

24:
Vanessa Lachey , Victoria Arlen , Jordan Fisher
23:
Frankie Muniz , Sasha Pieterse
21:
Nikki Bella , Lindsey Stirling
20:
Debbie Gibson , Drew Scott , Terrell Owens
19:
Nick Lachey , Derek Fisher

Dancing
with the Stars returns for a special episode Tuesday at
9/8c on ABC.

[BigBrother_Survivor] Big Brother’s Christmas Abbott Is Open to Having a Relationship With Paul Abrahamian

The Big Brother house is different from the real world so we haven't talked, we haven't seen each other, it's been a whirlwind. I have no idea. There are things that were happening in life before and things that are happening in life after and who is to say. I'm coming out of the house without expectations so I have no idea."
The Virginia native placed third on season 19, a triumph after breaking her foot early on when fellow houseguest Jason Dent landed on it during a piggyback ride. Abbott doesn't regret returning to the show after getting surgery, even though she had to sit out during a couple of competitions.
"Not at all, not one minute. There is no way and no how in my life I would ever regret that decision. If they had deemed it impossible for me to come back that would have been the most devastating thing that has happened to me," she tells Us. "CBS and Big Brother believed in me enough to allow me to stay and there was no way that I was going to let them down or myself or my fanbase. To show that you can still persevere when you get a really sh-tty situation. You can still do well and make positive of life. And that's not with just a broke foot — that's with anything. Life is going to be sh-tty sometimes and it's going to get even sh-ttier. It's how you decide how to deal with it. I wanted to play Big Brother and I wanted to go as far as I possibly could. And unfortunately it wasn't final two because I do believe that I would have won."
In the end, Abbott's BFF in the house, Josh Martinez, took Abrahamian to final two. She didn't win any money, but she was the last woman standing.
For more, read the rest of her Q&A below:
US: Are you shocked that Josh won?
CA: No, I'm so proud of him. I'm shocked he didn't take me to final two. I felt like I kept my composure on stage but then when everybody went on stage I just hugged my mom and sobbed for five minutes. It was a really hard night. And it's not about the winning or losing it's just the entire 92 days coming to an end and you're out and you're seeing people. And you're like, 'Oh my God, the world is actually going on.' It's so overwhelming on so many different facets.
US: Were you going to take Josh if you won?
CA: I refused to make that decision until I needed to in that moment because I really didn't want that emotional burden. And fortunately I wasn't given that opportunity to take on that emotional burden. I wanted to make sure that I had a clear understanding and make sure that I didn't promise something that I couldn't deliver. I never made that decision and I'm upset but also grateful that I didn't have to make that decision. I'm still not going to make that decision. 
       
US: Are you angry at all?
CA: No, I'm not angry at all. That's not even a possibility. I advocated for Josh to make the best game decision and I was hoping that he knew — I knew that the decision for him was to take Paul. He had a better chance at winning against Josh. But I was hoping that he would stay true to his word. I was disappointed when he didn't choose me but I also understand. There is no animosity. There's disappointment and a little heartbreak, but the deal was that whoever won [was going to buy] tickets for all three of us to travel the world together. And so I looked at him and I said, 'This one is on you buddy!' [Laughs] 'I'm sending you the itinerary next week.'
US: You voted for Paul to win. What was your deciding factor and did you know for a while you were going to vote that way?
CA: No, that was an absolute last-minute decision. I knew that if Josh didn't pick me that he was breaking his promise to me. There were a couple of factors. One, I watched Paul play the sh-t out of that game from day one and I saw what he was doing. I wasn't blind to it. But I was OK with it because he still protected me the entire time. He protected me from day one aggressively so I knew that he had my back. I was a pawn for him and he was a pawn for me. And so I just saw that he was working that really hard and he had a big target. With Josh he had a lot of emotional burden coming in, he had a huge transformation and we personally connected a lot. But he would also go off and do his own thing in the middle of a plan.
US: Were you surprised Paul had other final deals? Do you think he would have brought you to final two?
CA: I'm not shocked. It was smart for him. He had to. I think I was optimistic that he would choose me but also realistic that he had a better chance at winning against Josh. I felt honestly that either one of them would have a stronger chance at winning against each other. And the fact that within the last week in the house nothing was mentioned to me subtly or directly I knew what was going on. I didn't want to force something. It wasn't me giving up at all. My last speech was just me taking the opportunity to show my gratitude for the game and the people that I played with and to give Josh an opportunity to stick to his word.
US: Paul told me that you definitely would have won against Josh. Do you think you would have?
CA: I do. I didn't have to ruffle too many feathers. If I argued with people it was sound logic. I didn't make it personal, I didn't escalate it past where it needed to be and they couldn't come back. Josh made a lot of enemies, he pissed off a lot of people. Paul pissed off a lot of people in a different way. I believe that if either one of them would have taken me I would have won. So I'm sitting here with third place, no cash, no American Favorite and knowing that I just forfeited $50,000 and $500,000. I'm not angry about it, but my heart is a little broken.
US: Were you shocked that Cody Nickson won America's Favorite?
CA: Yes! He was such a d-ckhead. I believe that if I sit down and have a real conversation with Cody outside the game we have a lot to talk about. But inside the game — everything that came out of his mouth was a lie. He lied to every single person in that house. He manipulated everybody in the house. He flipped the house on me. He backdoored me, he blindsided me. And then he wouldn't even defend his position. As a game player — worst game player ever. I'm not exactly sure what America saw but I know what I experienced in the house and there is no way I would have ever given him my vote.
US: Favorite and least favorite houseguest?
CA: My favorite is Josh. He just always woke up so jubilant. His spirit is my spirit. We were like two spirit animals together. But I couldn't be that way though because I had to be the quiet bitch in the corner moping about her foot. [Laughs] Least favorite — I have a list. I can only say one? I got along with her, but Raven [Walton], please, shut the f-ck up. Life is not about you and we know you weren't in the Olympics. Allow people to have their moment. You don't have to one-up everybody. She is a beautiful person as she is but unfortunately she feels the need to always one-up somebody. I would have to say that I'm disappointed.
US: Would you return for another season?
CA: Absolutely, yes. I'm hoping that I could return full throttle and give you guys the whole Christmas experience because bitch had to tame down her personality a lot when I broke my foot. If I went back I would just go in and be a nightmare.
US: What song would you choose for your exit walk out?
CA: Oh, "Crazy Bitch" by Buckcherry.
US: In one word, how would you describe your season of Big Brother?
CA: Bizarre! It was magical, bizarre and the most exhilarating summer of my life.

[FunBBGroup] Big Brother’s Christmas Abbott Is Open to Having a Relationship With Paul Abrahamian

 

 I just cant picture Paul and her. Sorry. Is she really hoping for a romance?
She said-There's disappointment and a little heartbreak, but the deal was that whoever won [was going to buy] tickets for all three of us to travel the world together. And so I looked at him and I said, 'This one is on you buddy!' [Laughs] 'I'm sending you the itinerary next week


So wonder if that still stands or was it just talk?
So maybe there is a possibility she can come back on another season. I could accept that./ I really don't think her foot is as bad as she claimed it to be. She seemed to be doing just fine the last couple weeks of the season.

Big Brother's Christmas Abbott Is Open to Having a Relationship With Paul Abrahamian

More than friendship? Big Brother's Christmas Abbott says she has "no idea" what's going on between her and Paul Abrahamian — but she's willing to explore it.
"Yeah," the 33-year-old exclusively tells Us Weekly whether she's open to having a relationship with Abrahamian outside the house. "You're spending 92 days with somebody and I think we had a real connection night one." 

 
Abbott never told the clothing designer, 24, how she felt as they competed on the CBS series, though. "We had a game to play," she explains. "We developed a really true friendship and I think that it's special in its own way. The Big Brother house is different from the real world so we haven't talked, we haven't seen each other, it's been a whirlwind. I have no idea.
