Big Brother season 26 is currently in week 7. Ever since Tucker's elimination the previous week, multiple developments have occurred. Viewers who have kept up with the Live Feeds on Paramount+ are aware of the recent events, however, others will have to wait until Sunday, September 1, 2024, to see them after a new episode is released.
After becoming the Head of Household (HoH), Quinn used his privileges to nominate Angela, Kimo, and Rubina for the upcoming elimination. What followed was the Power of Veto (PoV) challenge. Quinn, Angela, Kimo, Rubina, Joseph, and Leah participated as veto players, but Leah outperformed the others and won the PoV.
The Live Feeds showcased week 7 nominee Angela confiding in Joseph about her insecurities and concerns about the impending eviction. She mentioned she had no real connections apart from Leah. Joseph interrupted her speech and told her there was nothing he could do to help her.
He also mentioned he would not ask Quinn to convince Leah to use the Veto on Angela. Joseph's straightforward response upset Angela, leading to a meltdown. Big Brother fans took to X to comment on their conversation. While some thought Joseph was too honest, others felt Angela could not handle the truth.
"lmao angela said she doesn’t think she will be talking to joseph anymore bc he’s too brutally honestly," a fan wrote.
"Joseph DGAF he told Angela exactly how it is and THANK GOD cause someone had to," another person wrote.
"Joseph is too brutally honest for Angela By all means, live in delusion!" a netizen commented.
Big Brother fans were unimpressed by Angela's breakdown after her conversation with Joseph. They stated it was repetitive and unconvincing.
"Angela gets really manic and I don’t know how much is real and how much is cranked up for the theatrics of it all," a user reacted.
"YES ANGELA YOU AREEEEE A CRYBABY HERE," one person commented.
"OMG I haven't got on the feeds for so long and I just did and to see what? Angela crying and playing victim AGAIN," a fan tweeted.
Some Big Brother season 26 fans criticized Joseph's straightforward response to Angela. They felt he could have mentioned the same differently.
"Why Joseph say all that in that way to Angela. Like you KNOW she gonna spiral," a user wrote.
"No really you could've told Angela this in a much better way and not just hours after she lost the veto," one person wrote.
"I mean truly Joseph himself better make Angela his target after saying all of that. He sure has a lot of audacity. Super high on his own supply for no reason," another fan commented.
What happened between Big Brother season 26 stars Angela and Joseph?
The Live Feeds showed Angela confiding in Joseph about her position in the house. She reflected on her connections and confessed not many supported her.
"I don't have numbers with me. I care about Kimo, and I like Kimo a lot. The other guys they don't really talk to me except for Leah," Angela mentioned.
She added that Leah was the sole Big Brother houseguest who made her feel "normal again." Angela stated she trusted Joseph game-wise because he could see what she missed. Convinced that Angela wanted Leah's Veto and was asking him to talk to Quinn about her nomination, Joseph said:
"I mean to be honest with you Angela, I'm not the one you gotta convince. And I'm also only one person."
Previously, Quinn wanted to ally with Joseph, T'Kor, and Kimo. As a result, Angela thought it would be convenient to express her issues to Joseph since he was close to the Big Brother HoH. However, her plan failed to fetch the results she expected.
Joseph said there was "no way" he could convince Quinn to ask Leah to use her Veto on Angela. Angela explained she was not asking for Leah's Veto, but only wanted Joseph to put in a word with Quinn, but in vain. Later, when he added a warning, Angela became upset.
"Honestly Angela, I don't see a way for you. I'm just being honest, you just need to go in there and you need to win to be quite frank with you. I love you and I don't want to lie to you," Joseph stated.
Big Brother season 26 will return to CBS with another episode on Sunday, September 1, 2024.
