EW also asked Julie about Cody Nickson winning America's Favorite Houseguest/Player. To EW, it was surprising, since Cody was out of the house pretty early -- twice -- and was the first juror. Here's Julie's response:

"Cody not only won America's Favorite Houseguest, but he won by A LOT! Wow. I guess people responded to him suddenly being the underdog and being persona non grata in the house. He was also not a phony. He was straightforward with people — if he didn't like you, he told you to your face... for better or worse. People responded to his honesty if you will."

From here, it looked like Kevin Schlehuber might have the AFP edge, since he's the kind of guy BB fans tend to go for. But Jessica Graf rallied the BB realm for Cody, and other fans just really wanted to send a message to Paul and his minions. Cody was the only one only who tried to get Paul out all season. He was rewarded $25,000 for that -- and he earned it.
