Dick
Donato's celebrity connection came as promised, to support one of
Big Brother history's
most controversial winners. The multi-tattooed, chain-smoking, cuss-popping,
spitting, hacking, flatulent elder Donato proudly declared to his daughter ahead
of Big Brother 8's finale, that one of his special guests would be the
frontman of the band, Suicidal Tendencies. True enough, the idol showed up to
cheer for the man many have come to call Evil.
Mike Muir, vocalist, frontman
and sentimental leader of thrash metal group, Suicidal Tendencies, was on hand
during the finale of CBS' Big Brother season 8. The hard-rocking Muir
wore his trademark bandana and SxTx T-shirt as he witnessed first-hand the
victory of his number one follower.
Well, Muir's show of support certainly wasn't wasted on Dick, who emerged as
this season's Big Brother champion. He and his daughter, Daniele, who
came in second overall, shared their thoughts the day after the series
conclusion.
"I wish I could say everyone was a sucker and we actually got along the whole
time," Daniele said last Wednesday. "But everything you saw was true. We
didn't talk and now we do."
"Of course it would have been nice to come in first," Daniele added. "We wanted
to be first and second in the final two and that's what happened. So for us,
honestly, we did win. We both won."
For his part, Dick was just as thrilled with his half a million dollar windfall
as he was about getting his daughter back in his life.
"I won, my daughter came in second, what could be better?" Dick declared.

Swerdzewski just cannot seem to catch a break. TMZ.com reported that the
man known in Big Brother 8 lore as the ogre, was refused entry at the
Los Angeles hotspot, Hyde. When Swerdzewski and his companions could not get
past Hyde security, the Big Brother 8 contestant lost his cool and
hurled colorful expletives at Hyde personnel.
