In just 2.5 hours from when I type this, Big Brother 26 will be over. We will have a winner (Chelsie —- or MJ, but probably Chelsie) and an AFP (Tucker).
It’s been quite a season. Waking up one morning early in the season hearing how Angela went crazy and freaked out on the house – but especially Matt. Then hearing Angela and Lisa going toe to toe and really the house basically bullying Lisa (not too extreme. We’ve seen a LOT worse, but she was treated fairly poorly). The hilariousness of Quinn telling Angela about his power and then Angela trying to drop it to people like Tucker when she could.
Damn, early BB26 was really all Angela. She went in hot and managed to stay until jury. Quite impressive.
Then you had Tucker winning the veto while on the block and saving Angela – a move that could have gone down in BB history as one of the worst moves of all time. Yet it ended up brilliant because it forced out MJ’s power and Tucker won the AI arena to remain in the house. Seriously, Tucker and Angela were gifts from the BB gods and hopefully we’re not cursed from having one booted before the jury because he really should have stuck around longer.
You had Leah and her army of simps who she actually ended up developing a crush on one of them (allegedly. We’ll see how that goes once real world hits). One of them acting like he was the next Dan Gheesling, btw lol
We watched MJ go from being in a flirtmance she tried to pretend was nothing until calling it a full blown showmance by the end of the season just for dramatic purposes (I guess it’s better to say you survived a showmance even though you were never in one). Speaking of, MJ also went from playing alone and was actually a high-level target and ended up on the block as the person likely to go home TWICE on Thursday night but saved herself both times in the AI Arena. Then she went on a comp winning spree and has essentially been safe since Week 8. From week 8 on it went:
POV win
Leah HoH, never a target
MJ hoh and pov
Chelsie HoH, never a target
MJ hoh and pov
MJ pov
MJ round 2 winner
Now that is a second half turnaround if I’ve ever seen one.
In addition, we had one of the worst performances on the endurance wall possibly in Big Brother history, and the first – and likely only time – OTEV has gone 1 round.
Of course, we can’t talk about BB26 and not mention Chelsie’s pure domination when she was never a first round nom, and never a nom able to receive votes (the one time she was nominated was a veto replacement, but she won AI so she was safe). She kept close ties with T’Kor on one side of the house, kept Cam close, remained in the middle of alliances and let people like Cedric be pegged off while she remained low.
Then, similar to MJ, she not only went on a second-half comp winning streak, but absolutely controlled the entire direction of the house in the process. She had the stronger trio, yet Leah went after the T’Kor crew during her HoH reign. She convinced MJ to get rid of Leah and also convinced her to take Cam to the final 3.
It’s been an up and down season, but overall it was another fun one to cover and thanks again to everyone who has visited daily and those who helped run the site and social media! (Summer, Hillary, Elaine, and Mel)
Let’s get to final updates!

Says she loves them ans she hopes she has made them proud. She says she is going to follow her own Proverbs 24:7 and “have some faith. I can’t see it, but I’m gonna believe it.”

Cam’s new favorite position is slumped over the kitchen bar.
I wonder if his back is hurt or something? He just stands there a lot and leans all the way over.

Makensy says she will see Angela again, but then never again.
She says she will never do another season because she is afraid they will put Angela on it too. She would see A and turn around and walk out.

Goodnight HGs.
Makensy was the last one to lay down. She is still in the petal room alone. She looked at her family pics and then told BB, “Ok, mind your own business…I am about to cry.”

10/13/24 06:28pm (1 year ago)

10/13/24 06:40pm (1 year ago)

Cam gives a weak speech. Really should have just said ‘if you want to win, take me’
10/13/24 06:57pm (1 year ago)
By: hillaryd
Julie tries to explain to MJ that she is going against the person she doesn’t evict.

By: Steve Beans
Cam says he would have taken Chelsie despite telling MJ he would have taken her
10/13/24 07:10pm (1 year ago)
By: hillaryd
Chelsie doesn’t own up to her deception.
Ooooppss.
10/13/24 07:10pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
Angela says Chelsie was the center of many lies. Is that accurate
Chelsie says yes and no. She said she knew a lot but knew when to say or didn’t say. So, she wasn’t the one to start lies and this is her reaction lol
10/13/24 07:12pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
Quinn’s question basically boiled down to … ‘MJ, you were Chelsie’s puppet. What did you actually do in the game?’ lol
MJ says getting Leah out was her best move. Even though it was literally Chelsie’s influence
10/13/24 07:14pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
T’Kor says Chelsie had a lot of influence, what was the biggest move with that
Chelsie agrees and says she did two, convince MJ to use the veto to get Quinn out and also convinced MJ to put up one of her greatest allies. Both taking credit for Leah’s eviction lol
10/13/24 07:15pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
MJ now looks rattled after Chelsie basically just took credit for the same thing MJ did but Leah asks what was up with her social game
MJ says she had no alliances but she was loyal to Chelsie.
10/13/24 07:16pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
Rubina asks Chelsie what she did to earn the title of the best
Chelsie says she didn’t want to fully rely on comps so she’s still in that seat if she didn’t win
10/13/24 07:18pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
Kimo asks MJ the same question
MJ says she won comps.
10/13/24 07:18pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
MJ still says she was in a showmance lol
10/13/24 07:19pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
Cam asks what makes her game different than MJ and Chelsie says her social game
10/13/24 07:20pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
Chelsie says her game was a diamond. She says MJ had a great game but hers was better
10/13/24 07:23pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
Chelsie in her final speech even points out how MJ played way more comps so she (C) has a better winning percentage
Again, she calls herself a diamond
10/13/24 07:24pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
MJ opens up by saying ‘Yea, I’m not as good with words as she is’. She is regretting her decision lol
She is stumbling through her speech but plays up the comp beast part
10/13/24 07:24pm (1 year ago)
By: hillaryd
Angela’s vote must be going to MJ.
Her faces during Chelsie’s speech were hilarious!
10/13/24 07:25pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
MJ says her social game wasn’t great but that’s because she was an outcast until day 50
Ummm, that’s BECAUSE your social game was weak.
10/13/24 07:26pm (1 year ago)

They are voting to win. I am going to announce my PREDICTION based on what they say. These are NOT the real votes
10/13/24 07:26pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
Quinn – Chelsie (guess)
10/13/24 07:27pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
T’Kor – Chelsie (guess)
10/13/24 07:27pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
Leah – Unknown (one of the most beautiful people this season. Could be either)
10/13/24 07:28pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
Angela – leaning Chelsie (guess)
10/13/24 07:28pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
Kimo – Unknown (he is voting for ‘one of you’) lol no hints there
10/13/24 07:29pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
Rubina – Unknown (voting for someone who is taller than she is)
10/13/24 07:29pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
Cam – Chelsie (guess)
10/13/24 07:30pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
So, there were zero certain votes for MJ. Definitely a few for Chelsie. And I bet Kimo and Rubina voted Chelsie
But those were all guesses
10/13/24 07:31pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans

Julie asks where MJ wants it to go with Matt. Both say conversation is due
10/13/24 07:42pm (1 year ago)
By: Steve Beans
Awkward
Matt says he wants to thank Angela. He was scared coming out of the house but because of that blowup, he had a TON of support and it’s been fantastic. But he still meant what he said. He loves her and wants to bury the hatchet.
He says ‘I’ve been watching the live feeds and you’ve been curious if I was going to give you a hug at the finale’
Angela says ‘Not really!’
But he asks for a hug anyway and Julie tells them to hug it out.
SO > AWKWARD
10/13/24 07:50pm (1 year ago)

Rubina finds out that Tucker revealed his relationship with the Instigator
