What were the highlights of Big Brother Season 25?

The BB-Multiverse theme was fun

The BB-Multiverse was a creative theme for “Big Brother.” It featured four distinct dimensions: the Scramble-Verse, Scary-Verse, Comic-Verse, and Humili-Verse. These dimensions introduced various twists, including punishments and competitions, which altered the house dynamics and provided new rewards that significantly impacted the game.

The 17th Houseguest twist

During Season 25, one of the biggest twists was the introduction of a surprise 17th Houseguest during the premiere. It turned out to be Cirie Fields, who became the first former Survivor contestant to compete in Big Brother.

Cameron Hardin won as America’s Favorite Houseguest

Cameron Hardin was named America’s Favorite Houseguest and won a $50,000 prize. Hardin, who was 34 at the time, was eliminated from the game during the first Double Eviction, but he was able to reenter the game after the introduction of the “Zombies” Twist. He finished ninth.
