Kenzie Watch: Day 2
It seems that after spending yesterday telling all who would listen that Caprice is a hot chick and in no way being attracted towards Jeremy, Kenzie's personality has been somewhat exhausted, as he wasn't hugely involved in the second day's events, preferring instead to spend much of his time mooching around in his dressing gown or relaxing in the sauna. He did, however, find time to try and explain to John McCririck exactly how Blazin' Squad became a success. This is a mystery that has troubled far greater minds than those contained within the Big Brother house, so it came as no surprise that John found the whole concept impossible to grasp. "Underground garage scene?", he mused, "You used to work in underground garages? Like the NCP?". Hilarity ensued amongst the housemates, which is fair enough, as hilarity is a common occurrence when the work of the Squad is being discussed.
His main involvement in house events was during their daily task, where housemates had to answer questions about other housemates to win items of clothing, taken from their suitcases, for them. It was Germaine, who stated in the diary room that Kenzie was her favourite because "he's trying to be a bad boy when he really isn't" and not in any way because she's fond of young boys, who was batting for Kenzie. She was asked what he had said when asked what he hoped to get out of the house, and promptly answered wrongly, feeling sure that he would have said he was looking forward to connecting with other people. Kenzie himself felt sure that he would have answered that it was the raising money for charity which would be the best part, so it was as much of a shock to him as it was to the others when Big Brother revealed that the correct answer was, in fact, "pulling a glamour model". Germaine had to choose between returning his slippers or his jeans and decided to go for his jeans, presumably feeling, quite rightly, that a 19 year old has no need for slippers.
Kenzie himself was picked to play for the clothes of none other than Jeremy Edwards, and in this case it was literally all of his clothes, other than what he was wearing when he arrived in the house. If Kenzie got it right, Jeremy got everything, if not, Jeremy was left with what he was sitting in. Now, far be it for us to suggest that Kenzie might have been quite keen on the idea of Jeremy walking around with hardly any clothes on, but when asked "How would Jeremy rate his personal attractiveness on a scale of 1 to 10", Kenzie did get the answer wrong, plumping for a 7 when Jeremy actually rated himself as an 8. To show there was no hard feelings - yet - Jeremy gave Kenzie a big hug when he left the diary room to let our little MC know that everything was OK and he didn't mind the outcome. Later they both found themselves in the Jacuzzi together, while Caprice watched on. A beautiful moment, the romance of which was only spoilt once John came blundering down the garden and decided to join them, leaving a sense of homo-erotic tension in the air which could be cut by a knife.
