"I saw it coming" - Big Brother contestant T’Kor discusses her eviction 

Big Brother season 26 episode 30 was released exclusively on CBS on Thursday, September 19, 2024, at 8 pm ET/PT. Contestants competing in episode 30 for the final grand prize were Angela Murray, Cam Sullivan-Brown, Chelsie Baham, Kimo Apaka, Leah Peters, Makensy Manbeck, Rubina Bernabe, and T’kor Clottey.

In the previous episode, the new Head of the Household, Leah, had nominated two players Kimo Apaka and Rubina Bernabe for a possible elimination. Then, Angela Murray used the Power of Veto which saved Kimo and left T’Kor Clottey in his place instead. To the viewer's surprise, by a vote of 4-1, Clottey was evicted from the Big Brother house.

Contestants who voted out T'Kor were Makensy, Cam, Chelsie, and Angela. Kimo, on the other hand, wanted to eliminate Rubina. Before exiting the show, T’Kor discussed her elimination with show host Julie Chen Moonves. T'Kor explained that she could sense from each houseguest's body language that her journey on BB might end sooner. The eliminated contestant said:

"I majored in sociology. I’m very good at reading people. I just have innate intuition of just knowing sometimes. I saw it coming for sure.”

Eliminated contestant T’Kor talks about her time as a HOH in the Big Brother house

During her exit interview, T'Kor shared that she was being considered a threat due to her "good social" game. Clottey predicted that the remaining houseguests might have thought she was a strong player who would give them a tough time in the competition.

She also said that Rubina's "unique ability to touch people was one of the reasons why she was saved. T'Kor continued:

“Maybe one, people always told me that I had a good social game. Maybe they might have seen it as a deterrent in the future. But, I also think Rubina has a very unique ability to touch people. I know that resonated with the other houseguests as well.”

The Big Brother cast member was asked how she was to use the Power of Veto if she was given one. T'Kor revealed she would have saved Kimo which would indirectly save Rubina as well.

Explaining her answer further, Clottey stated she could have convinced others including Kimo not to vote for Rubina.

Referring to the time when she was the HOH, T'Kor shared she had no regrets for the decision she made on the show. This was when her pawn Tucker Des Lauriers was evicted instead of her target Angela Murray.

Reflecting on Tucker's eviction, Clottey guessed Rubina and Kimo’s game strategy might work better now that one of the strongest players had already gone. She continued:

"I felt content with my decision at the time. I don’t regret anything.”

Towards the end of the interview, the Big Brother player expressed gratitude for this experience and got emotional talking about her time in the BB house. She said she had a special place for each houseguest in her heart:

“Thank you so much for this incredible experience. It was more than I could have ever imagined. I’m so grateful. I’m so happy that I’ll be able to be a part of making the decision of who’s gonna win and represent Season 26. This has been an incredible season!”
