Hello Everybody and Welcome to my Blog!!

Hello Everybody!!

This is my blog for all of you who enjoyed my flair for the theatrics on this summer’s Big Brother 11 on CBS.  First off, I would like to say thank you to everybody for the overwhelming support and love.  I hope in some way, I had you on the edge of your seat and laughing, while I went around the house playing the “villain”.  I must say it was a wild and crazy summer and I am looking forward to what is in store in the near future.

This blog is going have some pretty unique info: Diet tips, workout tips, my cooking recipes, up to date current events in “Life of ShotgunRussell” and much more.

If you have any other suggestions on what you want, feel free to let me know.

Thanks to all and remember…”If you are not smiling, you are not living”-Russell Kairouz

I never saw you as the villain; I was always in your corner and so TICKED at Jeff for not having more faith in you – and believing Natalie and Kevin’s story about your being disloyal. Past experience should have told him you always kept your word, and you would have in the final four.
You said nothing about the final three – it’s anyone’s game, and, ultimately, everyone wants to win the prize. Why were Natalie and Kevin any different than you in that regard? Just never made sense.
Jeff’s a great guy and I’m glad Jordan won – I just wish you had been in the final two.
Look forward to your blog updates.

We never saw you as a villain. Hell, in our house, you and Michele were the favorites from day one!

i could not be more excited about this russell. i totally loved you on big brother and i never thought of you as the villain. after you totally went after ronnie, you were my hero!

I have to repeat what the others have said. I never saw you as the villain. Just a guy playing a game.

I’m looking forward to your blog updates!

Russell you were freaking awesome, actually sometimes scaring me, ya’ll made a good summer TV show thanks for that
It has to be sooo crazy in that house and the emotions, it was funny to watch BBAD one night and things are OK everybody is in their separate spaces and the next night all the drama, people scattered all over the place yelling, I don’t know how you did it
Secretly I hoped you and Michelle could have pulled something off and gotten to the final 2 Happy for Jordan though

But what about Natalie and her lies? Are you in contact with her? have you seen Chima

First off I am not the Ronnie you think it would be lol.
I didn’t see you as a villain. Nat sucked Kevin in and made him look bad, so I would say Natalie was the villain all along. It’s part of the game as you said. I was so hoping that you and Jeff went to the end together. If only Nat and Kevin didn’t get to him with those lies. I have been watching all the show over again on You Tube this was my very first season and I’m addicted to it. I am following you on Twitter so I am always getting your updates. You can follow me if you like, I will email you on my Facebook since we are friends on there, and give you my user name.I love the Blog

Hey Russell, you’re site is lookin great man, nice work!

Notice how you are just coming online with all this web stuff but I must say you are really diving in and picking it all up quickly!

Anyways heading into the gym now gotta get that physique going so I can get in the house for 12… Drop me a line via email, would love to start a dialogue with ya bout some BB schtuff.

later man

TTime

I look forward to seeing how your blog progresses. I can certainly use some of those diet/fitness tips! Keep enjoying life…

I am excited that you are going to give us recipes and diet tips.
Sessi- I think that the only reason that Jeff didn’t trust him is because he voted to keep Jesse there but Russell was just keeping his word to Jesse.
Russell- Do you keep in touch with J/J? Are you friends with them?
-Rhonda:)

People hate on villains but admit it, they are fun to watch and make the show entertaining. Plus being a villain probably means you are playing strategically. Jeff’s move to oust you was the dumbest all season and will be remembered one of the dumbest in BB history.
All these articles about J/J and other people but how is Natalie doing? Do you keep in touch?

why the heck did you vote for natalie in the end she was a _____!!!!!! jordon was
the best choice so i guess that puts you in the same catagory as her!!!!!!!!!!

Please stop saying you were “playing a villain”. This was a reality show and you were playing a game. This wasn’t a 3 month long audition tape….or was it? Still, we liked you.

Loved you and your antics on BB11. Even though Jeff was my choice to win, you would most definitely been my #2. The only player that was impossible for me to warm up to was Natalie.

Russ, I never saw you as a villian. I must admit you were not one of my favs but also I never disliked you. I could never make my mind up about you and I still haven’t. I am glad you have a blog and I will be following it. I wish you the best.

You were awesome. You and Michelle should have teamed up sooner. Maybe if there is an all star, you can come back.

I loved both you and Michele this season, I am still having trouble with Jeffs reasoning for getting you out. I think he was very jealous of you. Hope only good happens for you.

Hey Russel, I’m so glad you have a blog. This was my first summer watching BB. I am having serious withdrawels. I just don’t think I can love another cast as much as I loved all of you. Bad boys and all!!

Russell,
I can’t believe I’m writing on a blog. I guess I could only do it for a nice guy like yourself. I thought you were great on Big Brother despite @ times feelin the pressure in that environment. It’s nice to see that end the end you showed your tur humanity & grace. You were able to show the values your family have past alont to you. You’ve had some difficult and challenges in your young life. Please always remember overcoming those adversities. In the end the you’ll know what battles are worth the fight. “The best to you in life & love my friend..you deserve it.” Keep that bright spirit and light alive-:)

I too was sorry that Jeff didn’t keep you, at least to the final 4 – and then tough it out. But if/when you watch the shows (esp. the Showtime) you can see what a mind game it is. Good luck in all future endeavors.

Hi Russ! I cannot imagine how hard it was in the big brother house both mentally and physically. You made the show very interesting. It would have been very boring without you. I hope to see you on the next All-Star season! And kudos to you for being so “cool” with Jeff in the sequester house.

So glad you have a blog – Never once saw you as a villian! Just a man playing a game, a great one at that. I can not imagine this season without you. It killed me when Jeff chose to believe Kevin & Natalie. Thanks for a fantastic summer and know that many people saw you for the fantastic young man you are – You’ve done yourself and your parents proud. I wish you nothing but the best and hopefully we’ll all see you on the next All-Star season.

I don’t particularily like muscle guys but you are one handsome dude and you wear a hat like you were born in it and your pants hang perfectly. You were not on my list of winners but you did grow on me until you called Jordan phat or was that fat (smile). Good luck buddy and tell us what do you do for a living.

Michele and you should have teamed up sooner – you’d have owned the game, but – hey, you know… Never liked J&J since they threatened your families – just not cool. Anyway, curious to get your take on the Adam from BB9. What an idiot!

Hey Russell:
I want impressed with your ability to entertain the feeds 24/7… never a dull moment. Too bad that Jeff didn’t keep the F4 but I was jumping for joy when he evicted Jesse!
What do you think of Michelle’s new look?
Any chances that you might hook up? How about a F4 show…yourself, Mich with Jeff and Jordon…now that’s a good idea for CBS!
Cheers to you and best wishes!

Hey buddy. You were awesome on Big Brother. You were one of 4 genuine people in there. Bro, you going off on Ronnie made you a ton of fans.

YOU ROCK! YOU WERE ONE OF MY FAVORITES!

Hey Ruseell we just loved you…you brought excitement to the show. I wanted to pop Jeff when he doubted you, I could not believe how stupid Jeff was when he had you evicted. Sonme people deserved the evil side you played….you know exactly who……lol Good luck in the future you deserve good things to happen.

Russell,
No matter what anyone else said, you were my choice for the win! You were playing a game, and doing it well. Unfortunately, Jeff, who is a great guy too, just didn’t have the trust in you that he should have (at least in that time period).

I miss getting to see you everyday and I truly believe you are a special and wonderful person. Too bad I’m old enough to be your mom LOL

Aww, you were not playing a villain, you were playing a bully and it didn’t work. Jeff and Jordan were themselves and thus why fans loved them. I loved when Jordan chest bumped you. Great stuff!

You were, without a doubt, my favorite hamster for the entire season. The game was over for me once you left.

I look forward to your diet and workout tips.

I enjoyed you in the house, for the most part. I thought you were devilish and mischievous, but never a ruthless villain. I loved your banter with Chima before things turned ugly. I really enjoyed your heartfelt, late night backyard chats with Michele. I really wish you both trusted in your own alliance instead of attempting to prove your worth to Jeff and Jordan, (who certainly had uglier moments in the house that the average viewer wasn’t privy to, but certainly captured on feeds).

I look forward to learning more about your diet and healthy lifestyle advice.

I would love your recipe for marinating steaks those always looked so good when you made them.

You were one of my fav on BB11,hopefully if they have all stars ,that you get chosen, looking forward to seeing your blog,I hated stinky Natalie and The Rat Ronnie…lol…Loved Jordan&Jeff,

It’s too bad so many people fell in love with the “lovable idiots”(Jeff and Jordan).
You were the only one to actually vote strategically at the end which I completely respect.
I have to say it was a down year for BB, but you at least tried to make it interesting. Peace

Hey Russell:
How about some answers to our questions/comments? Cheers!

Russell never saw you as a villain, saw you as a good guy who was playing with heart. Hope you nothing but the best in your life.

Please post your GUACAMOLE recipe!!! :)

Russell, you are really hot. My suggestion is that you pose nude since we’ve all seen it already anyway. You could make a few bucks and do a really tasteful photoshoot.

lol but seriously loved you on bb11. you were entertaining. jeff was so dumb for putting you up, but you did get avenged the very next week.

I changed my mind about you the day i saw your HOH room with the pictures of your parents. They are lovely and i know behind your hard disposition is a very kind and soft person. i knew you did whatever you didjust for the game. I hope you are happy and fulfilled.

I loved your banter with Chima,another favorite,in which I think you would agree that she shouldn’t have been expelled,unless you had a problem with her comments,and I don’t think you ever took Her seriously about what she said.I really think you cared 4 her,not relationship wise,but as a good friend,and I could see from watching the feeds,that it sort of,and you wouldn’t admit it,but tore you up that she couldn’t let what you said go.I seen a little tearing up,come on Russell admit it,but you really did try,which I think for you was a first,special in a game,where the primises is lying,and backstab.You,and Chima should of did the Mr.&Mrs.alliance,where she put you up,and take you down,and you do visversal,then you 2 could of fooled everybody.But I seen on the feeds,Natalie was telling you the truth,Chima wasn’t going to put you up,she just felt like,Kevin,and Michele,and everyone would view Her as a fool.But deep down the girl was hurt by you,and It was just to soon.I’m glad you have this blog,and urijah is great.Next time you in LA,please get with Chima,let the fan know,you guys are cool.You are really bigger than all star,I want to see you fighting,and Chima in the front row .hahaha Thanks.
