The following contains MAJOR spoilers for Big Brother’s White Locust twist, including the game’s latest elimination. If you want to remain unspoiled until the show’s next episode airs (Tuesday, 8/7c on CBS) — consider this your final warning!
When Big Brother‘s live feeds returned around 9 pm PT Friday, the BB27 house was shockingly down a player. And you won’t believe what just happened in there, feedsters.

Let’s not bury the lede: Rachel Reilly (and her 10,000 sparkly outfits) has been evicted from the Big Brother house. You read that right! And it was all the Mastermind’s (read: producers) doing! But she wasn’t voted out. Her shocking exit was the result of a comp loss tied to this whole “White Locust” business that was teased in Thursday’s live eviction episode.
Here’s how it all went down.
According to Hamsterwatch, the houseguests were forced to play a safety chain comp similar to what took Danielle Reyes out in Reindeer Games. Each houseguest chosen had less time to complete the task, which was a large hamster wheel (similar to what was used in the special Christmas-themed season), where players had to rotate the wheel to move a ball through a maze. One player went first, then selected the next player to go, and so on, and so forth. Rachel wasn’t able to complete the task with whatever remaining time she had left and was immediately evicted from the Big Brother house. And with her elimination, she became the first jury of BB27.
As far as polarizing Big Brother houseguests are concerned, Rachel Reilly is probably at the top of the list. (I personally love the “dramada,” the fire, and yes, the looks she’s been serving — good and bad — this season.) But to have the season’s only returning houseguest exit on a twist and not even from gameplay, social standing or an eviction vote leaves a bitter taste in my mouth, to say the least. Producers can’t be happy with how this played out, right? As BB fan Jace Pierce said via Bluesky, “Ratings better grab a life vest.”
Well, Big Brother fans. You know what they say. Expect the unexpected… but that doesn’t mean we have to like it.
