The Big Brother 27 house had a dramatic episode in the middle of the week on July 17, which ended with the season's first eviction. As houseguests dealt with changing alliances, rigorous campaigning, and an important Power of Veto competition, things got tense. The "Summer of Mystery" concept was definitely genuine; the week was full with secrets and smart moves.
Big Brother 27: Who Went Home After the Eviction?
Amy Bingham, Kelley Jorgensen, and Zae Frederich were on the block before the eviction on July 17. Different groups in the house were arguing about who to send home. Zae made a forceful last appeal, concentrating on his determination to go after Rachel Reilly. In the end, when host Julie Chen Moonves read the results, the house opted to kick Zae Frederich out. Many people, including Zae himself, were shocked by the voting, especially because they had a contract to be the last two.
I can't believe how crazy the #BB27 house is already! That Veto competition was crazy. Who do you believe will be the next head of household? - @BBFanatic27
The winner of BB27's Head of Household (HOH) has been announced.
Now that Zae has been kicked out, the upcoming Head of Household competition is the main event. The HOH position is the most powerful in the Big Brother house. It gives the person safety for the week and lets them choose two houseguests to be evicted. The person who wins this week's HOH challenge will have a big impact on Week 2, affecting nominations and even changing the power structure in the house. Houseguests will fight hard for this edge in order to stay safe and move forward in the game.
A summary of the Power of Veto (POV) competition and ceremony
The Power of Veto tournament, called "Campside Caper," had Vince Panaro, nominees Zae Frederich, Amy Bingham, and Ashley Hollis, and chosen players Zach Cornell and Rachel Reilly compete against each other. The competition was to find the criminals by looking at clues like shoe prints and smells. Ashley Hollis, who is recognized for her incisive observations, won the Golden Power of Veto. This win was a big deal for HOH Vince because Ashley used the Veto on herself, which meant he had to choose a new nominee. Then, Vince chose Kelley Jorgensen, who had already said she would be a pawn to maintain their alliance.
Jimmy Heagerty had a spectacular outburst during the Veto ceremony, where he used the platform to confront Keanu Soto. Jimmy gave a planned speech in which he accused Keanu of calling him a "snake" and making grandiose claims about how real he is. Keanu's calm reaction, "How long did it take you to come up with that?" made things even more tense. This fight in front of everyone showed how much more distrust and anger there is in the house.
Spoilers for the Big Brother Live Feed: Important Alliances and Drama
A look at the Week 1 nominations
Vince Panaro, the head of the household, first put Zae Frederich, Amy Bingham, and Ashley Hollis up for eviction. Vince's main objective was Ashley. This action caused immediate problems, notably with Ashley, who felt betrayed because she and Vince had agreed not to nominate each other. Vince tried to make things better, but Ashley made it obvious that she would go after him if she won HOH.
This Week, Important Alliances Were Made
In the first week of Big Brother 27, a few of alliances have formed rather rapidly. Zae, Vince, Rylie Jeffries, Zach Cornell, and Cliffton "Will" Williams made up the "Burger Boys." The Bond, another group, also started to come together. Rachel Reilly and Amy Bingham made a "mom squad" pair, and Jimmy Heagerty, Morgan Pope, and Mickey made a "triple threat" bunch. The "Heavy Hitters" alliance, which included Jimmy, Rachel, Morgan, Vince, Rylie, and Zach, also formed. Its goal was to combine their competitive might. Rachel did say in the Diary Room that her true loyalty was still to Amy and that she wanted to get rid of the "Heavy Hitters" one by one.
In #BB27, the alliances are coming together quickly. Which one will win: "The Bond" or "Heavy Hitters"? I'm betting on the chaos. - @SpoilerQueen
What Houseguests Said and Did in the Diary Room
Kelley Jorgensen broke down in tears when she talked about how hard it was to be on the block. Rachel Reilly, a senior player, used her Diary Room sessions to talk about her strategy, often showing how her public demeanor was different from her real game plan. Zae Frederich was very open about not trusting Rachel. He even told her explicitly that he would nominate her if he won HOH, which led to a fight. Zae told Rachel during this fight that she wouldn't win another season with him in the house.
Rachel Reilly is giving us the drama we needed this season! I love her Diary Room revelations. #BigBrother
Strategic Moves and Mistakes
Vince's choice to nominate Ashley, even though they had agreed on it at first, caused a big gap. Rachel told Keanu about Jimmy's plan to get Vince to nominate Keanu, which backfired on Jimmy. This caused Keanu and Vince to fight directly, with Vince disputing what Jimmy said. Vince then saw a chance to keep both Jimmy and Keanu in the game. He hoped that their animosity would keep the house from paying attention to what he was doing. Kelley's offer to be a pawn was a brave move, but it also meant that he may be kicked out, which is a typical problem in Big Brother. Zae's aggressive campaigning, especially his frontal attacks on Rachel, showed how determined he was, but in the end, it didn't save him.
I really am addicted to live feeds. Zae's campaigning is really amazing! Is he safe or done? #BB27Spoilers
Rachel Big Brother: What She Did to Cause This Week's Chaos
Fans of Big Brother will recognize Rachel Reilly as a key player in the Week 1 turmoil. She was in a good position since she could make quick connections, like the "mom squad" with Amy, and she was part of the "Heavy Hitters" alliance. But when she confronted Zae Frederich directly, it showed that she was eager to fight. Rachel's planned Diary Room confessions highlighted what she really wanted, which was often different from what she said in public, showing that she had a complicated strategy. In the early days of BB27, she has definitely kept up her image as a tough competitor and a source of drama.
