Big Brother is one of the longest-running reality TV shows in the U.S., now in its 26th season with new twists. This season introduces "America's Veto," a twist where viewers can vote for a replacement nominee, giving them direct control over the game.
Unlike the traditional Power of Veto, where the winner can save a nominee, America's Veto lets the audience influence the outcome. With higher stakes, houseguests need to be cautious with their alliances and strategies, knowing that America can change the game's course.
On Wednesday, August 7, the house was filled with drama as Makensy, the contestant who was chosen for America's Veto, removed herself from the nominations.

Each week in Big Brother, viewers have the power to vote for a houseguest who they believe should be on the elimination side. The houseguest who gets the highest number of votes becomes the replacement nominee, potentially changing the overall dynamics within the house. This twist adds a new layer of changes to the game, as contestants are not only trying to look good in the house but should also make sure to create an appealing impression for the fans in America.
Voting for America’s Veto is pretty simple yet highly influential for the game. Fans can give up to 10 votes each, with voting closing on Thursday, August 8, at noon ET (9 a.m.). The live show on Thursday revealed the results and announced the replacement nominee, preparing the stage for the live eviction ceremony. This week, viewers were supposed to choose who will face off against Tucker and Kenney, the current nominees, in the upcoming eviction.
America's Veto has already proven to be an important factor in the game of Big Brother, with Makensy using it to save herself from the nominations and leaving the decision of the next nominee in the hands of the public. As the season continues, the influence of America's Veto is likely to become even more significant, making it a game-changing element in the houseguests time on the show.
