BB showmances in S18

I don't see either one of them going to the end with each other. Neither seems all that serious even now. You'd have to watch the live feeds and the carefully edited sections in the CBS shows to see what I mean. It's more likely that James will get the furthest and dump Natalie along the way or she is evicted beyond his control. As for Nicole and Corey, she's hotter to trot with him than vice versa, but she has the best chance of getting closer to the end. He will very likely be evicted before her and she will return to her small Michigan town, older and wiser. Sob..... 
The 5 Most Successful Showmances on 'Big Brother'

There's a common myth on Big Brother that getting involved with a showmance is a bad thing. But just look at Big Brother 18, where we're a month away from the finale heading into the Top 7 and two major showmances are still alive: Corey and Nicole and James and Natalie (or Nicorey and Jatalie, if you prefer).
Like everything, it's not about whether you're in a showmance, it's how you use it and deal with it. Done properly, showmances can be effective in the game. Looking back at the history of the show, there have been five prominent showmances where both halves managed to reach the Final 5 together.
Which BB18 HG Are You?>>
Here is a look back at those five real showmances that managed to survive to the Final 5 on Big Brother.
Austin and Liz, Season 17
You can mock Liztin all you want for being gross, but they both managed to make it to the Final 5 thanks to Liz having her twin in the house, making the AusTwins a powerful trio that everyone was afraid to go after. More impressive, Austin made it all the way to week 11 without ever being nominated, which is no easy feat, especially for a big threat in a showmance. Of course in the end, Austin got blindsided in fifth place and Liz was dragged to the end as an easy win for Steve.
Shane and Danielle, Season 14
Both a part of the Quack Pack, these two attractive lovebirds both made it to the Final 4. Sadly for them, that's when Dan Gheesling stabbed Danielle in the back, evicted her boyfriend and then she followed to the jury in third place. They were blissfully ignorant of the game, but they proved that a showmance can dominate when they're working with the greatest player of all time and they win 4 HoHs and 6 PoVs between the two of them.
Jeff and Jordan, Season 11
America's sweethearts, they definitely wouldn't have survived without the Coup d'Etat and no one is accusing them of strategic genius. But through an ugly and volatile season, they both made it into the Final 5 and Jordan even ended up winning the whole game. Not a bad start to their fairy tale love story that included dating, getting engaged on season 16 and now being married with a kid on the way.
Drew and Diane, Season 5
She was the brains and he was the cute guy she helped drag to the end despite a fundamental lack of understanding of how to play, getting both of them in the Final 3. Getting to the end as a showmance is very difficult, but they did it, thanks largely to them winning five out of the last seven competitions of the season. However, things turned sour when Drew won the last HoH and evicted his own showmance Diane, realizing that he couldn't beat her in the end. He was right and ended up winning the game.
Boogie and Erika, All-Stars
This remains the only showmance in the show's history to make it to the Final 2. They made out and hooked up in the house, but Boogie always kept his eyes on the prize and was basically using her to help get himself and his pal Dr. Will to the end. Chilltown each had a girl at the end, with Will and Janelle's flirtmance, but the ladies eventually saw through it and Janelle cut Boogie's BFF at Final 4. However, Boogie was able to win the last HoH, take his showmance to the end and thoroughly trounce her with the jury.
Will Corey and Nicole or James and Natalie be able to join this list as the sixth showmance to reach the Final 5 together on Big Brother 18?
