The Big Brother 26 Power of Veto competition has been played, and its winner is nominee Tucker Des Lauriers. Tucker had volunteered to be a pawn for Big Brother 26 week 3 Head of Household (HOH) Cedric Hodges. Cedric also nominated Kenney Kelley, and his target, Angela Murray. Throughout the week, Kenney has expressed that he wants to go home, something that’s been a pattern for him since the game began.
The Big Brother 26 live feeds have revealed that nominee and pawn Tucker Des Lauriers won the week 3 Power of Veto.
The Big Brother 26 live feeds have revealed that Tucker won the week 3 Power of Veto. HOH Cedric, nominees Tucker, Angela, and Kenney, and Makensy Manbeck and Leah Peters, who were chosen by random draw, were the Power of Veto competition players. When the feeds returned, Cedric was seen saying that the pressure got to him.
Who Will Be Cedric’s Replacement Nominee?
Cedric Has A Houseguest In Mind
Tucker will most likely save himself from the chopping block, so Cedric will have to name a replacement nominee. Cedric had said earlier that Leah would be his replacement nominee if someone comes off the block. It’ll be interesting to see if Makensy decides to use her America’s Veto power if her number one ally Leah is the replacement nominee. Makensy only has one more week left to use it, so she might decide that now is the time. When the live feeds returned, Kenney said that Cam Sullivan-Brown volunteered to be the replacement nominee, leaving Cedric wondering what to do after he left him.
In a traditional Big Brother game, Cedric could’ve easily backdoored Leah, but now the BB A.I. Arena competition has made backdooring impossible. Replacement nominees always have the chance to win that competition and save themselves from the chopping block. This makes the game much more challenging for the HOH and the voting houseguests because the final nominees aren’t known until minutes before the live vote begins. It’s also much more unpredictable and enjoyable for viewers to watch Big Brother 26 because of it. It’ll be thrilling to see what happens next.
It’ll also be exciting to see if Angela finally goes home this week after she’s caused so much turmoil. If she doesn’t win the BB A.I. Arena competition, it’s probably best for the houseguests to evict her. However, Kenney’s statements about wanting to leave, and not using the Power of Veto even if he won it, might make the houseguests feel that voting him out wouldn’t get any blood on their hands. It’s also possible that Kenney could self-evict before Thursday’s live episode, but he also told Brooklyn Rivera that he’d use the veto if he won. Cedric certainly has a lot to think about before the Power of Veto ceremony.
