Dustin is dead to me

Eliminated July 19

Were you surprised to be back-doored?
Joe: I'm a little bitter. When Jen won HoH, I knew that I was one of three options for her. I was happy I got to play in the Veto competition but would have tried a little bit harder if I had known it was a sure thing I was going up.

What do you wish you'd done differently?
Joe: I wish I hadn't talked so much smack about Dustin, not only at the beginning but during the whole game. That sort of behavior really reflects on you in the house.

How do you feel about Dustin now?
Joe: I got closure with Dustin. All I ever wanted from him was to give me time to apologize for my behavior. All I've wanted to do for the last year of my life was apologize for ruining his life and making him cry for six months.

Clear it up for the record. Did Dustin give you gonorrhea?
Joe: The truth is that he did indeed give it to me. Either Dustin gave me gonorrhea or I had an immaculate conception of gonorrhea from the Lord Jesus Christ himself. And no, I don't regret saying that. It brings an issue to light in a society that's sexually active and isn't taking precautions. It's an important issue.

Are you rooting for him now?
Joe: No, no, no, no, no. He's dead to me. I'll never speak to him ever again.

Who's the strongest player in the game right now?
Joe: Jameka. She's set herself up with a broad base of allies in the house and she gets along well with everybody. She's really conscious of the aspects of the game without really showing that she's a gamer. She gets very little screen time. The people that get the most screen time like myself or Evel Dick are the first to go.

Is Jen as annoying as she seems?
Joe: However annoying she seems on TV, she's a million times more annoying in the house. But people want to keep her in. She's a constant distraction and then nobody pays attention to the other scheming going on.

What's next for you?
Joe: I'm extremely comfortable in front of the camera and would really love to do more. I hope this isn't the last anybody sees of me. I'm going to see what kinds of opportunities I can turn this into. I'm only 23, so hopefully this ride's just getting started.

Demi Moore: Rock Bottom
It could have been a happy night for Demi Moore — a chance to put the most painful and humiliating period of her life behind her, even if just for a few hours. But while Demi had been nominated for a Directors Guild award for co-directing the Lifetime special Five, she spent the January 28 ceremony in hiding as she coped with the fallout from a drug incident that landed her in the hospital five days earlier. “She’s literally hiding in shame over how far she has fallen,” a pal shares.

Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie On The Rocks?
Could Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr. be the next in a long list of celebrity couples heading for divorce? Although their rep denies the story, the duo, who have managed to remain largely out of the spotlight throughout their relationship, raised eyebrows recently when Sarah, 34, walked the Golden Globes red carpet solo — and without her enormous diamond engagement ring.

Tabatha Coffey’s Tough Love
“Look, I know it’s like boot camp when I come in,” says Tabatha Takes Over star Tabatha Coffey with a twinkle in her eye and a smile so broad that fans of her hit show might not even recognize her. The Bravo star admits with a giggle that channeling her inner drill sergeant is often the only way to get the job done.

Seal’s Ex: Don’t Take Him Back
The song that Seal chose for his performance on a recent episode of Ellen — Al Green’s “Let’s Stay Together” — seemed specifically designed to make his estranged wife, Heidi Klum, reconsider her decision to end their marriage. While Seal may have good reason to endear himself to Heidi — who has legions of fans and pulled in a whopping $20 million last year — former supermodel Tatjana Patitz, 45, maintains that the singer is a selfish, immature man who is prone to frightening rages. “He is not a nice person,” Tatjana, who dated Seal for nearly a year, tells In Touch.
