Big Brother season 26 aired its latest episode on Thursday, September 26, 2024. A shocking double elimination sent Leah and Angela packing. Both houseguests had been Chelsie's targets for a while. After Makensy became week 10's Head of Household (HoH), Chelsie saw it as the perfect opportunity to campaign for their elimination.
She convinced Makensy that Leah was plotting a secret attack on Chelsie. Unwilling to jeopardize her relationship with Chelsie, Makensy obeyed her and placed Leah on the block after taking Kimo off. Leah was eventually eliminated. Chelsie's next target was Angela. When Chelsie became the HoH before the second elimination, she influenced the others to target Angela. As a result of her efforts, the cast member was sent packing.
Soon after the episode ended, the Live Feeds on Paramount+ resumed, showing Makensy holding the HoH key. It confirmed that she was the HoH for week 11. Big Brother fans were not impressed by the results. They took to X, claiming Makensy's reign would be "boring" because she would do as Chelsie would ask. However, some fans hoped she would redeem herself by taking control of her actions.
"ughhhh another Makensy HOH is soooo BORING i hope no one goes home this week," a fan wrote.
"Makensy winning this hoh is so dumb. She is for sure leaving next week cause I highly doubt she wins the final 4 veto," another fan commented.
"Makensy won the HOH competition so congrats Chelsie for being the HOH again," a netizen tweeted.
Many Big Brother season 26 fans were dissatisfied with Makensy's repeated HoH victory.
"ANOTHER F**KING MAKENSY HOH WEEK LMFAOOOOO????? THIS F**KING SEASON IS TOAST. this f**king girl has brain damage and i might get some watching her for another week," one person commented.
"WHAT I SAY??? and now we have ANOTHER Makensy HOH and Kimo/Rubina sucking once again this season is officially over," another fan wrote.
"first Makensy wins HOH and completely f**ks it up. then we get a flop double eviction and lose mother Angela. and NOW Makensy is HOH again??" another user tweeted.
However, some Big Brother fans hoped Makensy would play a better game in the coming week instead of fulfilling someone else's demands.
"ITS TIME FOR MAKENSYS REDEMPTION HOH! SHE WILL BACKDOOR CHELSIE!" a person reacted.
"Makensy this HOH will pretty much determine if you win the game or Chelsie does. Take the shot and you are in the best spot to win. If you just get Kimo out, you give Chelsie an even better chance at winning. This is your chance to redeem yourself," one netizen commented.
Big Brother season 26, week 11: Live Feeds updates
Once the Live Feeds returned, viewers saw Makensy holding the key to the HoH room, confirming that she had won the competition. While talking to Cam, Makensy said:
"You were super close!"
Cam regretted not winning, saying it was the story of his life. When Chelsie and Rubina joined them, they discussed reaching the final stages of the competition. Chelsie admitted it was an "accomplishment" to have made it so far. The Big Brother HoH hoped the houseguests would get "something" in the coming week, hinting at the messages from family members the top five usually got.
Everyone dispersed as Makensy got called to the diary room. Later in the bedroom, Chelsie spoke to the cameras. She confessed how "crazy" it was to be in the final five. Although she hoped to win more competitions in the future, she was happy that her "girl," aka Makensy, won HoH.
Soon, she started discussing Angela's eviction. She said:
"Yeah, I got Angela out! Life is good. Anything can happen in Big Brother. Expect the unexpected but surviving a double eviction and making it to top 5 is something! I never thought that I would be the one and can we talk about how I messed up on my number. I won because somebody else just did worse."
The Big Brother cast member urged the viewers to pray for her and hoped they would not deliver a "boring" last couple of weeks.
Big Brother season 26 airs on CBS every Sunday, Wednesday, and Thursday.
