Big Brother Bash 2010
Brendon Villegas & Rachel Reil
Meet & GreetIt was party time again in Las Vegas on September 17-19, 2010 for the Reality Stars of Big Brother, Survivor, Amazing Race, VH1 and MTV. I once again joined in the celebration put together by Niki Congero of Live at the Studio. Everyone welcomed the new houseguests from BB12 and it was like old home week. The fans partied right along with the players.

On September 17 the Meet & Greet took place at Bally’s Hotel & Casino in the penthouse suite and the crowd overflowed into the hallways. Everyone was so excited to see one another. Making a grand entrance was Enzo Palumbo with his wife Joella, his mother and his beautiful 10 month old daughter Gia, who was the center of attraction.
Enzo, Missy, Gia & JoellaWe loved seeing Chima Simone because she did not attend last year and everyone enjoyed meeting her at the party.

Joe Barber, Erika Landin BB4/BB7 & Adam Gentry, Survivor Enzo & JessieThe winner of BB12 is Hayden Moss, a 24 year old college student who said he did not think he would win when he first came into the BB house. He said he would put his winnings into good use and I’m sure that will include his grandparents who he talked very highly with lots of love.
Hayden Moss & Nikki ArtaleLane Elenburg was the second place $50,000 winner and coming in third place was Enzo Palumbo. Too bad there wasn’t a third place money prize because Enzo did deserve some money. Enzo brought together the Bra-Gade and that is what carried them all through to the final three.

It was a pleasure to meet Rachel's mother Noreen and father Kevin. They were a delight to talk to and were very proud of Rachel. They are a special family.

Hogs & HeifersThe day started with the Reality Stars being picked up at Bally’s by motorcycles, limos and the Mob Experience Prison Bus. It was a sight to be seen as they were dropped off at Hogs & Heifers to the delight of the fans and everyone around the Freemont Street Experience. Cooks were manning the BBQ and the Beer Pong tables were being set up. There was an auction for the fans to bid on their favorite Reality Star to play the game with. This was also a charity event with the proceeds going to Faith House and Poppy Foundation.
BBQ was delicious
