'Big Brother 17' Spoilers: Who'll Be Evicted First? Not the REAL Target

Warning: Spoilers ahead from the "Big Brother" live feeds.

"Big Brother 17" has only been airing for a week but a month's worth of drama has been happening on the live feeds. This house is already an asylum and it's not even clear who's running things anymore. Tonight (July 1) we'll see the results of the Power of Veto competition, which was actually held on Friday, and tomorrow (Thursday) BB17 will give us the first live eviction of the summer. The BB Takeover twist can alter whatever it wants at any time, and plans change within minutes in the "Big Brother" house, but as of now two things seem clear: 1) Jace Agolli will be evicted and 2) the majority of the house wants Audrey Middleton out ASAP.

On Sunday's show ,we saw that James Huling remains the Head of Household in Week 1, with "The Amazing Race" alum Jackie Ibarra and Ian Terry clone Steve Moses on the block. However, Steve won himself the Power of Veto and he used the POV to save himself. HOH James did what the house wanted at the time and put Jace on the block as the backdoor target. Jace knows at this point that he is leaving, although he's now scrambling to get the votes to evict Jackie instead of himself, so he can work with his allies -- especially Austin Matelson and Liz Nolan (who has a twin named Julia, just FYI).

But in the first week, Audrey has played HARD -- too hard. It was noticed that she has an alliance with just about everyone and she basically circles the house from conversation to conversation playing telephone, stirring up drama, then complaining that the house is just playing telephone and there's so much drama. It caught up to her. So, as of now, the target for Week 2 has moved from Austin or Liz to Audrey. Will it last? We'll see. It could be that Audrey (BB's first ever transgender houseguest) wins the Week 2 HOH on Thursday or she wins back the house's trust.

Audrey had Da'Vonne Rogers and Shelli Poole as her Day 1 allies, and she got close with Clay Honeycutt, but the house has lost trust in her. However, since Jace, Austin, Liz and (sort of) Vanessa Rousso are on the outside of what seems like the main alliance, Audrey may be able to work with them and find some leverage. A lot will be decided by who wins both HOHs, who is nominated, and who wins the all-important POV in Week 2.

For now, expect to see Steve win POV tonight and Jace become the first houseguest to leave BB17 tomorrow. However, the motto of this show is Expect the Unexpected, so there may be a last minute change on Thursday to send Jackie from pawn to packing. It's happened before.

Neve Campbell Joins 'House of Cards' Season 4 in Major Mystery Role

LA Premiere of That Neve Campbell has good taste. The "Party of Five" alum hasn't been a TV series regular in many moons -- just showing up in one or two episodes of shows from "Mad Men" to "Grey's Anatomy" -- but she signed up for a big role on Season 4 of Netflix's outstanding "House of Cards."

Deadline revealed Campbell as the newest series regular, saying her role was being kept a secret. However, there was just scoop about a young couple joining Season 4 as a mirror image of President Frank Underwood (Kevin Spacey) and First Lady Claire (Robin Wright). Is Neve Campbell, perhaps, the female half of that younger power couple? Maybe. Maybe not.

"House of Cards" Season 4 will premiere in 2016 -- probably February, as usual -- and will at least partly focus on how Claire ... but wait. No spoilers, in case you aren't caught up yet. This show is definitely binge-worthy, so get yourself up-to-date on Netflix and prepare for the welcome addition of Neve Campbell. Is it wrong to hope she plays someone a bit shady, to give Frank a taste of his own medicine?

Everyone Loves 'Minions' Because of Drugs: Let Jon Hamm and Jon Stewart Explain

Jon Hamm was on "The Daily Show" last night to promote "Minions"-- you can see a clip from the movie in his interview video below -- and the "Mad Men" alum joked that he was going to get in so much trouble with Universal after his conversation with Jon Stewart.

The "Despicable Me" spinoff opens July 10, and Jon Stewart started by saying he hoped the movie was about a quorum of Jewish men and maybe they just misspelled "Minyan." But he said kids really love Minions, including his own kids, joking that they are 18 and 19 and smoke a lot of dope. More seriously, Stewart said not everything can capture his kids' attention like this, and the Jons discussed the universal appeal of the characters for both children and adults.

Jon Hamm: "I think these guys, the Minions, are scientifically designed to be appealing to children. And not only children, but adults. I think the reason they're appealing to adults is they look like capsules, they look like pills. So people are like 'I'm used to that, I'm into it.'"

Jon Stewart: "So you think people are at home going, 'You know what movie I want to see? That Xanax movie.'"

Jon Hamm: "What is it called? Xanax, Xanax, Xanax, Oxycontin? I forget what it's called."

Jon Stewart said he was onto something. He figured they designed and tested the heck out of the Minions to see what the perfect size and shape would be.

Jon Stewart: "In many ways, they did design them like children's crack. Like it is, it's something that just feels..."

That's when Hamm dropped his line about getting in so much trouble with Universal for these jokes.

Jon Stewart: "You know what they're doing right now at Universal, you talking like that?" He leaned forward with his fingers together, villain style. "Yessss."

Jon Hamm: "'Talk to me more about this children's crack.' 'Actually, we'd like to work on that other Minyans movie about the Jews.' 'No, no, no, no, no, let's go with that children's crack story!'"

Haha. They're obviously just joking ... unless everyone comes out of theaters addicted to little round yellow squishy things. Watch more from the Jons here. They really should go on road trips together.

First 'Creed' Trailer Shows Rocky Still Packs a Punch

"Creed" is already a hit online, but will it be a knockout in theaters this November? The movie's tagline is "Your legacy is more than a name," but the names Sylvester Stallone, Rocky Balboa, Apollo Creed, and Michael B. Jordan are selling this latest entry into the "Rocky" franchise.

The first official "Creed" trailer dropped last night and it already has more than 1,025,000 YouTube views. Jordan stars as the son of Apollo Creed, who heads to Philadelphia to track down his late father's legendary rival-turned-friend, Rocky Balboa, to ask him to be his own trainer.

Here's the 2 minute, 43 second trailer. It doesn't even reveal Stallone until the halfway point, emphasizing that this isn't his story.


"Creed" is directed by Ryan Coogler, who knocked it out of the park (more sports metaphors!) with Michael B. Jordan in "Fruitvale Station." "Creed" co-stars Phylicia Rashad, Tessa Thompson, Tony Bellew, Wood Harris ("The Wire" reunion!) and Graham McTavish. It's set for release on November 25. And now, for good measure, please repeat "Eye of the Tiger" in your head for the rest of the day. You're welcome.

Watch the trailer.

Best of Late Night TV: Danielle Brooks's NSFW Taystee Rap, Halle Berry Cancels, 'Couple or Friends?'

If you're like us and value your sleep, you probably nodded off into your Ambien dreamland before the party started on post-prime time TV. Don't worry; we've got you covered. Here's the best of what happened last night on late night.

Halle Berry was supposed to be on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" Tuesday night to promote tonight's premiere of "Extant" Season 2. But she canceled, apparently not feeling well, which Jimmy said was a particular blow to Guillermo, who was looking forward to seeing her. So they did a little sketch where Jimmy broke the news to his sidekick, and a lot of slapping ensued. Kathy Griffin filled in for Halle Berry, who "hurt her back" (Kathy's air quotes). Jimmy said he called Kathy Tuesday afternoon as a last-minute fill-in. Kathy took the opportunity to shade Halle a teensy bit and promote her 80-city tour. Rob Corddry, who is on the new show "Ballers," talked to Jimmy about his celebrity crush as a kid, Kelly on "Dance Party USA," who turned out to be Kelly Ripa. Once again, Jimmy referenced the Supreme Court's same-sex ruling and said, ever since Friday, when he's seen two people on the street, he's been tempted to congratulate them, but he's not sure if they are really a couple or just friends. So he sent his cousin Sal into the street to play "Couple or Friends?" Jimmy also mocked Apple's new product, which just asks for -- nay, demands -- your money. For nothing. Or something. Just pay. The amazing Danielle Brooks, aka Taystee on "Orange Is the New Black," talked to Conan O'Brien about how the Netflix show has the "coolest, most bold fans." She has had people run up to her at stoplights and kiss her on the cheek. Conan said he does that to all women. Danielle told the story of being at the ATX festival in Texas and she was walking with some friends; two white women came up and crossed paths with them. One of the women whispered, "Yo, I think that's Taystee." And the other girl said, "Don't be racist." Danielle said she went back and said, "It is me, you're not racist! I know all black people don't look alike, but it's me." Haha. She took a picture with them and said they were really nice. Danielle also mentioned how creepy it is when older men hit on her. Her acceptable age range is up to about 39-40. (She's 25.) To Conan: "You got a cousin?" And here's her awesome (NSFW) Taystee rap, which had to be bleeped out. Conan was abashed. "There'll be no children's parties for you." "Silicon Valley" star Kumail Nanjiani was also on "Conan" and discussed growing up in Pakistan. He tweeted an adorkable throwback photo -- he thought it was cute, but it did not receive one compliment. He even memorized some of the insults, which were largely about the size of his head. A lot of people thought he just Photoshopped his current face onto a train conductor's body. Poor guy.

Jimmy Fallon, Seth Meyers and James Corden are all on repeats this week. Tears!

Recap of Pretty Little Liars Season 6 Episode 5: Maddie Ziegler, Is That You?!

PRETTY LITTLE LIARS -
Lots of things happened during this week's "Pretty Little Liars," but the most important moment was definitely Spencer having a dream about Zombie Maddie Ziegler dancing around an asylum. Clearly she's been watching way too many Sia music videos / eating way too many pot brownies. Read the recap to find out more must-know moments from the episode -- including A's surprising gender!

Mona's Back In Town, Is Kinda-Sorta Evil Again

Good news everyone: Mona Vanderwall is back in Rosewood after taking some time to "do her" following #ThatMomentWhen she get locked in a cell by the town's resident stalker. As expected, FKA A (that's Formerly Known As A, for all you people who have forgotten that Mona was, in fact, A) is a fragile mess, but there's more to this story than meets the eye.

Turns out Mona's working for her friend, Lesli Stone, who the liars find out was at Bradley Sanitarium at the same time as Charles DiLaurentis. You know what that means: she might be A. Much like everyone else on this show.

Also, if you're wondering how Hanna and Caleb are doing in their relationship, they aren't having sex -- at least that's the impression we got from ABC Family's coded PG language. Sob, if these two break up hot off the heels of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner's split, love will truly be dead.

Emily Gets A Tattoo, Everyone Side-Eyes

Not to hate on Sara, but we still think she's hiding something. That being said, she and Emily got super chummy this week: not only did Em help Sara ditch her mom for good (she's legally emancipated!), they get friendship tattoos (NOPE), and Emily tells her new BFF all about A.
But more on these two later, it's time to talk about #Alenzo. Remember when we predicted that Alison was going to start dating Lorenzo, the newest underage member of Rosewood's police force? Well that's totally happening. Alison decides to lean on Lorenzo out of sheer boredom, and after agreeing to teach a soccer camp with him (yeah, that seems like an awesome idea), they make out. It would have been cute if Ali's dad wasn't watching. Shudder.

Spencer's Living That Pot Brownie Life, Maddie Ziegler Might Be A

Stop everything: Spencer is still addicted to pot brownies. Unfortunately, "the herb" (that's what cool people call it, right?) is making her super intense -- so much so that Hanna thinks she's addicted to sex. (edit note: AHAAHAHAHAH) The good news is that Spencer joins a support group, where she meets up with her old sober coach, Dean. Watch out, Toby, you're about to be replaced.

In other news, Aria's new photo crush is still around, and this week they visit a junkyard for #inspiration. However, A tags along as a creepy third wheel, giving Aria a chance to do a little investigating. Turns out Clarke even snaps a pic of our favorite hoodie-clad killer, and when Aria checks out his negatives she realizes that A is -- wait for it -- a girl. Maddie Ziegler, is that you?

Burning Questions

1. Is Ezra still on this show? Was he written off because the writers finally realized he's way too old for Aria?
2. What's the deal with Maddie Ziegler -- is she going to be a real character, or simply a figment of Spencer's imagination?
3. Will Spencer break things off with Toby for her sober coach?
4. Is Lesli A? Because she doesn't look tall enough....
