The Big Brother 27 houseguests have been sequestered in various hotels near Sound Stage 18 at CBS Studio Center in Studio City, Los Angeles. Soon, they will move into their ultimate destination: Hotel Mystère, the
Big Brother 27 house itself.
Although viewers will watch the houseguests enter the house during the July 10th premiere, in reality, they met each other and moved into the mysterious house two days earlier.
The live feeds begin Sunday, July 13.
The "AI Arena" twist from the
previous season will continue this season, now rebranded as the "BB
Blockbuster."
Julie Chen Moonves introduced the first eight
houseguests: Kelley Jorgensen, Zach Cornell, Ashley Hollis, Rylie
Jeffries, Amy Bingham, Adrian Rocha, Lauren Domingue, and Keanu
Soto.
Julie then introduced the second group of eight
houseguests: Mickey Lee, Isaiah “Zae” Frederich, Jimmy Heagerty,
Katherine Woodman, Vince Panaro, Morgan Pope, Cliffton "Will"
Williams, and Ava Pearl.
Zach won a competition to find
Julie. When all the houseguests returned to the living room, Julie
announced that Zach had won $10,000 for finding her. Jimmy, on the
other hand, had the power to select the four houseguests who would
compete in the Head of Household (HoH) competition, as only four
would participate.
Jimmy consulted with his fellow
houseguests, many of whom expressed a desire not to compete in the
first HoH competition. Ultimately, he chose himself, Adrian, Ashley,
and Vince.
Vince went on to win the first HoH of the season.
An "evil mastermind" then appeared on the living room screen,
revealing there would be a 17th houseguest, a mystery individual:
Rachel Reilly.
If that wasn't enough, the mastermind also
disclosed that one of the original 16 houseguests was his
accomplice. If the houseguests fail to identify this person, the
accomplice will remain in the game, and all 17 houseguests will
compete this summer.
BIG BROTHER returns with its biggest
season ever, airing the most original hours of programming in 25
years since its 2000 debut through extended 90-minute Wednesday
episodes and the launch of BIG BROTHER: UNLOCKED on Friday nights
throughout the season.
The new season kicks off with a 90-minute
premiere Thursday, July 10 (8:00-9:30 PM, ET/PT) followed by a
90-minute Sunday episode Sunday, July 13 (8:00-9:30 PM, ET/PT).
In the 90-minute
premiere of its 27th season, BIG BROTHER welcomes an all-new group
of Houseguests into the BIG BROTHER House. Expect the unexpected
with more hours than ever of BIG BROTHER this summer, and a season
full of twists and turns. After its premiere, the series will air
Wednesdays (8:00-9:30 PM, ET/delayed PT) expanded from its regular
60-minute episodes, followed by hour-long shows on Thursdays –
featuring live evictions – and Sundays (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/delayed
PT).
Then
get ready for BIG BROTHER: UNLOCKED as three BB All-Stars offer
never-before-seen broadcast footage from the house, exclusive
interviews, surprise guest appearances and unprecedented
behind-the-scenes access. Former Houseguests share firsthand insight
and expertise as they analyze gameplay, assess the competition and
give their insider’s perspective every other Friday starting Friday,
July 25 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT).
