MAGGIE-NIFICENT! MAGS WINS BIG BROTHER 6
SPICY LATINA LOSES TO HOUSE-MAMA MAGGIE

The cost of victory proves too pricey for the Spicy Latina as Ivette is voted out of the half-million dollars by a vindictive Jury decision. In a 4 to 3 vote, Maggie is awarded the Grand Prize of $500,000 for her mighty powers of manipulation and the crafty corruption of her less gifted housemates. Ivette is stoney-faced over her second-place prize, but on the bright side, she is out of the BIG BROTHER 6 house at last.

REFLECTIONS OF SIMPLER, OR MORE SINISTER DAYS
There's a walk down memory lane to remember the 14 original HouseGuests in the BIG BROTHER 6's Summer of Secrets. Eric's brief rule is recalled before we move on to King Kaysar's reign. Mistakes are relived, and evictions reminisced as the BIG BROTHER 6 house is whittled down to the final pair and the seven-member Jury.

Making it to the final round of the BIG BROTHER 6 Summer of Secrets has involved fancy footwork, fast thinking and a few personal touches that the finalists believe gave them the edge on their housemates. Ivette claims her success came from her game plan to be "blunt, honest and outspoken. I'm loud," Ivette explains, adding that in the BIG BROTHER 6 house, "I was 100% Ivette."

Maggie sees her own longevity stemming from her choice of allies and her competitive nature. "I did not break anyone's trust that I cared about in this game," Maggie claims, admitting that "because of the loyalty to certain people" and their reciprocated allegiance, she was often protected from nomination. Mags also credits her understanding of the mix of egos and personalities in the house as her strong suit in the game, as she was able to avoid trouble where others got entangled. "Sometimes I really wanted to say something, but I bit my tongue."
