Marcellas' report on the finale/wrap party (he's obviously not a fan of Eric/Jess):

So this is going to be quick and random. A flow of...stream of consciousness.

THE FINALE
I went to the finale with Kennedy. I so enjoyed Reality Remix this season. I missed my Gretchen but the opportunity to be on TV each week was one I could not pass. And I learned a lot from Kennedy. She has been doing what I want to do for years. And she does it well. Going to the finale with Kennedy and her husband was the best way to go. I didn't have to hang with past house guests. I didn't have to talk game or recount what I'm up to now. It was just nice to be there, low-key and enjoy it for what it was. I thought the finale was one of the best in years. Though it wasn't my fave season, I did enjoy the finale.

Kaysar brought his cute little mama.

Chicken George was low-key in the green room wearing a "Got Dick?" tee. CG is one on my fave peeps from the show. Until he hooks up with Howie. He's a good man though. Very kind.

Howie was Howie. Loud. Crazy. A handful. Don Wollman came over and took his sign. And then came over again and tried to quiet him down. What can you do?

Janelle wore the dress she wore to the vh1 awards thing. We were in a fight. Well I was in a fight with her. I avoided her and her clique as much as I could. @ one point I was face to face with Beau. Strained hellos. He still doesn't like me. And I could care less. Janelle makes me sad. She lied about Gretchen and I during a chat and said something mean about me. After the finale I walked by her after staying as far away from her as possible. She stopped me and said "Marcy don't walk by me and not say hi." "Are you mad @ me?" Um mm... Yeah Janelle, I am. Stop talking trash about me. The game is over for us. Either truly be my friend or don't mention me. It's easy.

I had to scram after the finale. I had red carpet @ "The Advocate" hosts the 40th Celebration to benefit The Point Foundation event. Before I left I got to talk to Carol who is one of the most beautiful girls to ever enter the game. She gushed about me and I gushed about her. She was my fave though she didn't stay long. I could tell she wanted to be on BB 8 about as much as I wanted to be on All-Stars. It's strange to get something and realize it was a mistake. But you learn and move on.
I know people who would love to be on BB hate when House Guests say it's not all that. But it isn't. Deal.

Kail was sweeter than I expected. Warm.

Dustin said the "gays always self evict." Um mm... No Dustin. I would never have volunteered to go on the block. The key to staying in the game is to not get nominated. I didn't use the veto on myself after 69 days when I was lied to by my alliance who I'd dragged to final 5. My best friend in the house voted against me. I was nominated against someone I loved. It was the 1st time the veto was introduced! I could go on. After 5 years what are you gonna do? It is what it is and I did what I did. A reality star was born.

Joe said he was a big fan of me. He was over-the-top and full of energy. Happy. It's so funny how people are edited. I'm sure that was how he was in the house but it didn't translate.

Jen was blah. I expected more. I liked her last season. Maybe she was like me after All-Stars? Just over it. She was also wearing too much body glitter which got all over my H&M blazer after hugging her.

Mike is taller than he seems and better looking.

Nick is huge and hot. A big boy. Yum.

This is where I left with Howie and CG trying to scam their way into the backyard. Security wouldn't let them in. Our season ended guys. Let them have their moment. Go here and click on Marcellas Big Brother Review. The one dated Sept. 19th should be up soon. You'll see a funny bit between Kennedy and I about the finale, the season and everything. Ooh and some behind the scenes dish no one knows but me!

THE WRAP PARTY
All day long I debated about going. I told Gretchen Monday I wasn't going. Diane (my dearest) called me this morning and asked if I would come with her. "NO", I said. "Maybe?" "I don't know." "I'll call you later." Erika texted, "Are you going?" "Come with me baby. I'm going with my man. It'll be fun." "I'm not up to it E," I reply. "I don't want to see the ex-HG's and I'm not interested in the new ones." "Well if you change your mind, we'll pick you up" says Erika. UGH. Now I have 2 rides.

I decide to stay home. I spoil myself. I have a me day. I take a conference call about a show I'm pitching. I take a tan. Make an appointment for AmeriLight skin tightening (it's supposed to be fab). Call t-mobile because Lisa went over on her texts this month (we share an account). And by 7 I'm @ the gym. After the gym I get a text from Carol asking where I am. I say I'm waiting for Diane to call me and then I may come to the party. She says I'm standing right next to Diane. And then I get a text from Diane. And then Erika. I literally walk out the door in shorts and a hoodie. Sweaty and shiny and smelling like funk and tanning lotion, I show up to the Big Brother 8 wrap party. People are stunned. "You're not wearing a blazer" is what I hear all night. Actually it was the perfect outfit. I got to smile and be happy and not so damn formal. And since it wasn't my moment, what difference does it make what I'm wearing?

Who is the first person I see? Dick. Dick was nice. He asked if I hated him. I don't. I didn't like him calling me dumb on TV. He apologized and I accepted. I also told him that I'd heard he and Danielle said some very nice things about me too. It all balances out. It turns out Dick and I met at a Shannon Elizabeth Animal Avengers party in 2002 @ the Key Club. Dick is a true BB fan. He was a finalist for seasons 5 and 6. He said he narrowly made it on this season. He was asked back after the finals to meet the bigwigs @ CBS again. @ this point we were interrupted by a fan. This is where Dick was Dick. He said, "hold up before we do anything this is the pic I want." He hands the fan his camera. He wanted a pic of me, him and Diane. I gotta tell you I like him. As with most of the House Guest they are much different outside of the game. Or the exact same but with roundness. More dimension. Did you follow that?

Jen was nowhere to be seen.

My lil Diane was there. I didn't get to hang with her too much in the picture crush.

Howie and CG had hats and photos to sign. You know that stuff is on eBay already. Speaking of which Dick said his son has made $10,000 on eBay. Hm mm... He said America loves him.

Do they? Or did they just hate Jen, Jessica, Kail and Dustin more? Who knows?

Erika looked gorgeous. Her beau is beautiful. They should have kids soon. Period.

Jameka was so excited to see me. It's so funny how the newbies are fans of the other HG's. I think it's because they still give them season 3 in sequester. She's so much prettier in real life. And she straightened her hair. Her skin was lovely.

I met Carol's mom which was like meeting royalty. Carol's beauty comes directly from her mother. Her mom wanted to take a pic with me and I asked Jameka's sister to hold my beer. I didn't want to be trashy in front of the mom.

Another crazy, rushed conversation with Dustin. Truth be told Dustin and Will from season 5 are my type. A girl stepped in front of me, told Dustin how cute he was and asked if I would take a picture of them. I found it funny because well... You know. I'm reality royalty and if there is an All-Stars deux I doubt Dustin would make the cut. I'd still be the only gay asked back. And the only Black man. It is what it is.

Where the hell is Zack?

I never talked to Jessica, Jen, or Eric @ the wrap party. Kaysar was there but I never made it over. I saw Marvin from a distance.

I spoke to Amber. I wished her grace and strength and told her it would pass. She seemed happy and wasn't crying thank God! My fave line from BB 8 was "God bless God." Either that or Jameka's "Danielle was the pimp and Dick was the ho." Brilliant.

On the way I out I saw Danielle. She is tiny. Like the Olsen twins tiny. Which makes her veto wins even more of a feat. She gave me a big hug and asked if I liked her. "Of course I like you," I said. "Oh good," she replied. "I was worried because in the house Jameka said you would hate me." "I have a thing for blonds," I replied. "Janelle, Amy and now you." We laughed. She was sweet. I told her she was robbed. She put too many girls on the jury. She said she put too many people who didn't have a brain on the jury. We laughed again. She's a sweet girl y'all. Yeah, she got mean and it cost her the game but that's done. Let's give her and the rest of the cast the latitude to be human. To err and to get back up and try it again.

Nick was right there. Apparently he's moving to L.A. This seriously smacks of Eric and Lisa. I hope for the best yet foresee the worst.

What else? Hung with Sarah. Had a pointless conversation with Holly. She looked pretty. Someone took a pic of me while eating as Janelle and I reconciled and I pulled a Naomi Campbell. But I mean they didn't even ask. And Janie and I were having a moment. And the chicken and salmon was good as hell and I was starving after the gym. What can you do? I've spent a total of 15 weeks living in a fishbowl.

Who do I see myself speaking to now that the season is done? Hm mm... I see myself getting seriously drunk with Dick. I see myself shopping on Melrose with Danielle. Being email buddies with Jameka. And I'm having a huge bday party in Chicago in November. I've already invited Carol to come up from Kansas. She said it's an 8 hour drive. I said I'd fly her in.

So that's it. Another season bites the dust. 14 new members join the sorority (believe me it's more sorority than frat). Welcome to the club.
