Big Brother POV Winner

Big Brother Power of Veto Winner has the power to remove one player from nominations forcing the HOH to select another player for eviction.

The Power of Veto is the only thing that can pull a nominee off the block once the Head of Household has named them, and whoever wins it decides whether the HOH gets the week they planned. Every veto result of the season is below, newest first, written from the live feeds as it happened.

When is the veto competition on Big Brother?

The veto competition runs on Saturday, two days after the Head of Household is crowned and one day after nominations. Six houseguests play: the Head of Household, the two nominees, and three more drawn at random. The result is known on the feeds long before it airs, which is why Saturday afternoon is one of the busiest days of the Big Brother week.

The winner does not have to decide straight away. The veto ceremony is held on Monday, which gives the house two full days to campaign at whoever is holding it.

What does the Power of Veto actually do?

  • It removes one nominee from the block. The veto holder chooses who, and they are allowed to choose themselves.
  • It makes the holder safe if they use it on themselves. A nominee who wins the veto cannot be put back up that week.
  • It forces a replacement. If the veto is used, the Head of Household has to name somebody else on the spot.
  • It can be left in the drawer. Choosing not to use it is a decision too, and it keeps the nominations exactly as the HOH made them.

What happens when the veto is used?

The Head of Household names a replacement nominee at the ceremony, and that is where the week can turn. Because the replacement is chosen after the veto has already been played, the new nominee never had a chance to win their way off the block. That is the backdoor, and it is the most reliable way to remove a strong player who would otherwise win the competition to save themselves.

Simon 9 Comments

Seven houseguests started the week and four are left. The double eviction took Barrett and Yash, Devens broke a 1–1 tie to send Melody to the jury on Monday, and Taylor won the final four Head of Household. Drew won the last veto, so tonight he casts the only vote, and his options are Dee and Devens. Plus the Wall: Devens had his best week since July, and Drew passed Dee for the first time since early September.

Bedroom – Drew, Dee and Devens
Drew – I thought I lost. I thought I got zero. Devens – The idea that someone could get zero is insane. Drew – I did it in 6 minutes. Devens – Nice! Dee – Amazing dude! Dee leaves. Drew – I am stocked! Devens – Dude, I would think you would be stocked. Drew – I am catching up to you again. Devens – I know. That I am not happy about. Drew – Come on. Devens – That I am not happy about. Drew – Like father like son. Devens – That is awesome. That is so cool. Aren’t you like a little bit relieved that you don’t have to like deal with Melody wanting you to like save her if you weren’t on the block. Drew – Yeah that would have been tough. But I seriously would have been like no. But its cool it worked out. Devens – and now you’re stress free. I am sorry about that but I appreciate you doing that. Drew – I out you up so now we’re even. Devens – we’re even in almost every way. Drew – If I win the next HOH we will be. That is my only motivation. Dude how cool! When you said yours (time) and you said 22, I was like I actually might have this. I assumed I had like 9 or 10.

Big Brother 28 Week 10 in Review: The Week the Newbies Ate Themselves

Simon 4 Comments

Tonight is a double eviction — seven houseguests become five. Yash won his first Head of Household and used it to nominate three of his own side. Drew answered by standing in the Pressure Cooker for fourteen hours and nineteen minutes, cutting a deal at two in the morning to win it, and leaving Taylor in the seat he vacated. By midweek Barrett was asking the two Icons he nominated last Friday to keep him, and being told the doors weren’t closed — which is not the same as being told yes. Plus the Wall’s cleanest result of the season: every Icon up, every newbie down, seven for seven.

Big Brother 28 Week 8 in Review: The Week the Feeds Went Dark

Simon 9 Comments

The feeds went dark on Thursday night and came back on Saturday afternoon to a greyed-out photo, a Head of Household already crowned and a block already set. Haley was gone, eliminated by a four-contest medieval gauntlet with no vote, no nomination ceremony and nothing on camera — the house has not talked it through out loud since. Drew won his first HOH and nominated the three players who had spent Week 7 saying they wanted the Icons out. Yash won the veto and used it on himself, and Devens volunteered for the empty seat before anyone asked him. Now Barrett is quietly counting votes to blindside him, Dee cannot decide whether she can pull the trigger, and Devens is telling the two people organising it that he feels too comfortable. Devens, Lala and Taylor play the Blockbuster tonight, and whoever loses the vote opens the jury.

Big Brother 28 Week 7 in Review: The Target Changed and Nobody Was Told

Simon 10 Comments

Dee won her second Head of Household and spent $5,000 buying the one player who was hunting her. Six days later that player is organising the group that wants to blindside her, the target she has been naming all week is not the target, and Barrett has told Melody and Mallory outright that he and Drew have been with the Icons since the start. Drew, Taylor and Mallory play the Blockbuster tonight.

YASH WON The VETO! “Shoutout to YP man!” “We didn’t even have to do anything.”

12pm – 3:52pm Big Brother blocks the live feeds for the Power Of Veto competition. When the feeds return we learn that YASH won the golden power of veto! It was the classic OTEV competition (Angela prediction was correct!)

Devens – The fact that you guys went every round, that’s a big improvement over the last time Angela got to play. Kamu, Drew, and Devens head to the GYM. Devens – Solid week for YASH! Drew jokingly asks – I wonder who he’s going to use it on?! Kamu – Shoutout to YP man! (Yash Patel) Devens – We didn’t even have to do anything. Kamu – Smooth and good for him. He doesn’t have to nominate a 4th person and get more blood on his hands. Devens – exactly. Devens – Nominate 3 people and get out the person you want, perfect! Kamu leaves. Devens to himself – D (Devens) why are you sucking so bad at comps!? D come on!? Help me, help you!

Big Brother 28 Week 5 in review

Simon 6 Comments

Big Brother 28 Week 5 on the live feeds, start to finish. Nobody picked Lala to win the Wall – not the house, not the fans, not the man she beat – and she spent the week telling almost everybody what they wanted to hear. Chuk, Haley and Barrett went up. Kamu won the veto and left them there, on a grudge going back to Haley’s HOH. Angela confessed to flipping the Lyric vote and the gym went up. Dee and Devens spent Sunday enjoying a power nobody knows about. And by Wednesday four separate groups had named four different next targets. Two of them named Lala.
