The third Head of Household of the season, Lauren Domingue, made zero waves in the house this week as she nominated three people for eviction who'd already been on the block: Keanu Soto, Kelley Jorgensen, and Will Williams. Yawn! (Read our recap of Sunday's episode.)

'Big Brother 27' spoilers: Lauren's HOH reign goes from bad to worse after Veto meeting
The 22-year-old bridal consultant from Lafayette, La. (and self-described Big Brother superfan) was hoping to come away from her HOH reign with no blood on her hands. So, she nominated Keanu because he was the house's target, Kelley because she volunteered (yet again!), and Will because everyone loves him and he had just survived a 13-0 vote against .
The eligible contestants soon took part in the Week 3 Veto competition, and it was revealed on the Paramount+ live feeds that the winner of the medallion was ... Keanu!
This 33-year-old Dungeon Master from Miami is now in a similar position to last week, where he was the house's target but he came off the block because of the Power of Veto. Only this time, he won the advantage himself and didn't have to rely on the "Mystery Competitor," aka Season 20 champion Kaycee Clark.
Keanu will undoubtedly use the Veto to remove himself from the block for the second week in a row. That means Lauren will soon have to nominate a fourth houseguest for eviction.

In a conversation with Vince Panaro, her final two ride-or-die, Lauren said she was contemplating putting up Ashley Hollis as the renom. Remember, Ashley's game was on the line way back in Week 1 when she took a two-hour shower in Vince's HOH room. Katherine Woodman helped push that #showergate narrative, and Lauren and Katherine have since become besties in the house.
Another person who should watch her back is Rachel Reilly, the show's infamous "queen" and winner of Season 13. Rachel is constantly talked about as a threat in this game, but she's so far managed to avoid the block. However, if Lauren were to nominate Rachel as the renom, and Rachel were to survive, Lauren would surely have blood on her hands, which is something she's trying to avoid.
Also of note: by winning the Veto competition, Keanu earned the right to host a movie screening of The Bad Guys 2. He chose Ava Pearl and Rachel to join him. At the thought of watching a movie with Keanu, who drives her absolutely bonkers, Ava whispered to Will, "Please, God, don't!" She added, "And now Rachel is gonna watch the movie, too? I'm gonna be locked in a g--d--- room with Crazy 1 and Crazy 2. F--- my life!"
See how all the Veto drama plays out Wednesday night on CBS. Then on Thursday, the three nominees will have one last chance to save themselves in the live BB Block Buster competition.

‘The Naked Gun': What the Critics Are Saying
Paramount's new iteration of The Naked Gun, starring Liam Neeson as Lt. Frank Drebin Jr., the son of the late Leslie Nielsen's Frank Drebin, and Pamela Anderson, is getting mostly positive reviews from critics ahead of its Friday theatrical release. The fourth film in the franchise, coming more than 30 years after the last movie, 1994's Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult, was directed by Akiva Schaffer, who wrote the screenplay with Dan Gregor and Doug Maud. Like the team behind the Nielsen-starring Naked Gun films, David and Jerry Zucker and Jim Abrahams, Schaffer is part of a comedy trio, in this case The Lonely Island. Previous films in the series include 1988's The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! and 1991's The Naked Gun 2 1/2: The Smell of Fear. More from The Hollywood Reporter Samantha Bee Laments 'Late Show' Cancellation: "It's Awful" 'The Naked Gun' Review: Liam Neeson Nails the Deadpan Goofiness, but Pamela Anderson Is the Scene-Stealer in Uneven Legacy Sequel Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson Gush About Their Team-Up in 'The Naked Gun': "So Much Fun" The new Naked Gun's cast also includes Paul Walter Hauser, CCH Pounder, Kevin Durand, Cody Rhodes, Liza Koshy, Eddie Yu and Danny Huston. As of Wednesday afternoon, Schaffer's Naked Gun is certified fresh with a 90 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes and a 78 on Metacritic. The movie hits theaters Friday. Below, read key excerpts from critics as the first reviews of the movie roll in. The Hollywood Reporter's chief film critic David Rooney praises a surprisingly well-executed comedic performance from Neeson, who, like Nielsen before the original Naked Gun, had been an established drama actor. 'The actor's dead serious delivery provides a subtle meta underlay as Frank Jr. takes down bad guys and tackles a master criminal, starting with a bank robbery prologue whose funniest jokes are given away in the trailer,' he writes. Later, Rooney writes, 'Luckily, Neeson and Anderson have enough spark to carry the film, not to mention great chemistry.' Ultimately, THR's reviewer 'kept wishing the movie were as consistently entertaining and as sure of its footing as Anderson and Neeson are in their roles. But even if the laughs are hit-or-miss and the plotting shaky, there's enough inspired nonsense here to keep comedy-starved theatrical audiences engaged. To the filmmakers' credit, that includes the kind of retrograde, politically incorrect humor — the cops' anatomical appreciations of Beth are a hoot — that make the movie feel almost like the old Naked Gun.' Vanity Fair's chief critic Richard Lawson writes, 'The greatest [jokes], though, rival the brilliance of the 1988 original. That masterpiece (yes) still prevails in any comparison, but the new version does much to honor its noble predecessor.' The reboot had Lawson laughing out loud and yearning for the revival of true comedy. He concludes, 'Schaffer seems to have had the proper perspective on this reboot from its inception. That he loses his way here and there might merely be a sign that this particular comedy engine was always going to rattle a bit as it turned back on after so many years of neglect. Here's hoping it starts purring smoothly soon enough.' The Associated Press' Jake Coyle writes, 'Nielsen wasn't just delivering a line with perfect deadpan. He was self-actualizing,' regarding the original. 'You can't say the same for Neeson in The Naked Gun. He's plenty game; commitment isn't the issue. But in this sometimes witty ode to the Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker style of satire, the role never feels quite right for him, despite the phonetic connections,' Coyle writes. 'But like most reboots, particularly comedy ones, the best thing about the new Naked Gun is that it might send you back to the original.' For Vulture and New York Magazine, Bilge Ebiri wrote, 'Like its previous iterations, The Naked Gun builds to a grand comic finale, though this one never quite achieves the climactic delirium of the original. (There can be only one Enrico Pallazzo.) But overall, what's most surprising is how fully in tune the new film remains with the spirit of the earlier ones.' On behalf of Rolling Stone, David Fear came in with a more harsh evaluation, writing, 'Comedies are marathons, however, not just a series of sprints. Schaffer and his collaborators seem to sense that they can't keep up the breakneck pace of the movie's stellar first act for close to 90 minutes.' Writing as film critic for The Guardian, Peter Bradshaw puts it quite bluntly that 'There is no reason for this new Naked Gun to exist other than the reason for the old ones: it's a laugh, disposable, forgettable, enjoyable.' The New York Post's Johnny Oleksinski, meanwhile, calls the film 'the biggest surprise of the year.' He writes, 'Someway, somehow, it's the funniest movie to hit theaters in a long time. We're talking gasping-for-air, 'Get my inhaler!' hilarious. In the spirit of the 1988 classic, director Akiva Schaffer's movie carpet-bombs us with nonstop jokes — from stupid to clever to utterly deranged. They never, ever let up.'
