The first season of Celebrity Big Brother has been a wild ride. There have been multiple headlines of what Omarosa Manigault Newman has said about working in the White House from the show. But the drama between the competition has caught people’s attention too.

Some strong competitors have been evicted, including Shannon Elizabeth and Chuck Liddell. There have also been celebrities who begged to be sent home, like Metta World Peace and Keshia Knight Pulliam. But they still aren’t done when it comes to the competition because they get to vote on the winner.

So who are they all rooting for and why? We decided to find out! Here are seven things the celebrities said after eviction, including who they want to win.

1. Shannon Elizabeth said she is rooting for James Hill

The American Pie actress left the house on bad terms, so there was a big question as to who she will vote for to win. When she was evicted, she was closest to James Hill, so it’s no surprise she is confident with how he’ll do.

“I think he’ll do great,” Shannon Elizabeth told Julie Chen. “Omarosa’s not going to try to target him this week. From tomorrow [Sunday, Feb. 18], it’s a week from finale, so I think he’ll do great.”

She also revealed what she will be taking into account when it’s time for her to vote, saying:

It depends who’s in the finale. If it’s two people in the finals that both screwed me over, then I’ll have to look at other factors; but if there’s somebody like James who’s in the finals—who is a strong competitor, was being honest and is, like, ‘Look, you said don’t go for the gift bag. I didn’t go for the gift bag. You said throw the HOH, so I threw the HOH’—I respect that.

I respect that he’s doing what he said he was going to do. I respect that a lot more than the game the rest of [the Houseguests] are playing.
