Big Brother Season 27 Episode 18: Nominated housemates participate in the BB Blockbuster challenge
The latest Big Brother Season 27 episode featured three nominated housemates: Zach, Vince, and Keanu. After winning the Veto, Katherine chose not to save any of them. Hence, one of them would be going home after the elimination.
Additionally, they were also given punishments to go through. Keanu had to wear the given outfit and serve pigs in a blanket to fellow housemates. Vince had to wear a hard-boiled egg costume. It was quite uncomfortable for him because his outfit was oversized. He faced difficulties moving around the house. Zach and Rachel were up all night for his punishment.
For the BB Blockbuster challenge, the three participants had to play Jumbo Gemstones. The challenge involved different colored gemstones that contestants had to move around to the color-coded poles, in a way each pole had to have similar colored gemstones on it.
Initially, the Big Brother housemates thought it was an easy task, but it took the nominated housemates quite some time to finish. Keanu was the first to finish, and this was the fourth time he won the challenge. Before this, he had won three Vetoes and Blockbuster challenges on the show.
With Keanu's win, he was safe from the upcoming elimination process. It resulted in Zach and Vince on the chopping block. Housemates, including Lauren, Katherine, Kelley, Rylie, Morgan, Mickey, Kelle, and Keanu, voted for Zach's elimination. Rachel and Will voted to evict Vince.
