Big Brother season 26 episode 11 aired exclusively on CBS on Thursday, August 8, 2024, at 8 pm ET/PT. The synopsis reads:

Kenny was evicted on Big Brother season 26 episode 11

On Big Brother season 26 episode 11, it was revealed that the viewers voted for Quinn to be given the power of Veto. Later in the same episode, the three nominees chosen by the Head of Household had gathered in the AI Arena to compete to secure their position in the game.

In this challenge, the contestants had to collect at least 20 flying balls in a closed chamber to save themselves from a possible elimination. Tucker was the first nominee to collect the first five balls, then 15, and later five more.

As such, he was able to protect himself from eviction. Now, two house guests, Quinn and Kenny were left.

It was up to the remaining Big Brother season 26 cast members to decide who to cast the vote for. The houseguest with more votes was to be eliminated from the competition and their BB journey would come to an end.

Both Quinn and Kenny decided to convince their housemates why they should stay back in the house.

Quinn's speech was targeted more towards Tucker meanwhile Kenny talked about his family and encouraged everyone to do what they felt was right and choose the person they thought deserved to stay in the competition.

On Big Brother, season 26 episode 11, Tucker, T’Kor, Angela, and Chelsie voted for Quinn. Meanwhile, Makensy, Brooklyn, Rubina, Cam, Kimo, Joseph, and Leah voted to evict Kenny from the house.

With the majority of votes, it was announced that Kenny was being evicted from the house. Before departing the show, he opened up to show host Julia about his experience on the CB series. When Julia asked her if he was relieved to be eliminated, he responded with a yes.

According to Kenny, he was a huge fan of Big Brother, but over the past few years, his point of view looking toward the game had changed.

Kenny explained that if he had joined the cast five years ago, he could've been a different player but being away from his family right now wasn't easy for him.

To see Kenny's journey on the show, stream Big Brother season 26 exclusively on CBS.
