Howie Gordon is the 11th Person Evicted From The Big Brother 6 House

LOS ANGELES -- The force was not with Howie last night on BIG BROTHER 6, as the self-proclaimed "Jedi" could not save himself from the evil clutches of the "Friendship" alliance. The 34-year-old meteorology student, originally from Chicago and currently living in Boca Raton, Fla., met his fate in a tiebreaker vote determined by Ivette and was the eleventh person evicted from the Big Brother house.

Immediately following his eviction, Howie was interviewed by host Julie Chen about his distinctive experience in the house.

Howie joins Jennifer, Rachel, James and Beau as the fifth jury member to decide who will win the grand prize of $500,000 on the live finale broadcast on Tuesday, Sept. 20.

For the last three weeks, tension between battling alliances inside the house could be cut with a light saber. Howie was responsible for Beau's eviction from the house and Ivette was left without a partner. A shift in power put Ivette in control and she nominated Howie and Janelle for eviction with the idea to evict Janelle. But Janelle won the power of veto and Ivette was left to nominate April from her alliance. Although Howie made every attempt to save himself by trying to persuade Ivette that she has a chance to win if she evicts April, the dark side emerged and Howie was swept into a galaxy far away… the Big Brother sequester house.

After last night's eviction, the houseguests competed in a competition called "Before or After" to see who would become the next Head of Household. Janelle Pierzina, the 25-year-old VIP cocktail waitress, originally from Grand Rapids, Minn. and currently living in Miami Beach, Fla., won the coveted position.

With only two weeks left in the game, BIG BROTHER 6 is down to its final four players, Janelle, Ivette, April and Maggie.

For more information about the aftermath of Howie's eviction log on to www.cbs.com and watch him live on "Housecalls: The Big Brother Talk Show with Marcellas and Gretchen" on Friday (1:00 PM ET/10:00 AM PT).

BIG BROTHER 6 is broadcast each week on Tuesdays (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT), Thursdays (8:00-9:00 PM, live ET/delayed PT) and Saturdays (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT). The Thursday broadcast, hosted by Julie Chen, features the live eviction of one of the houseguests.
