Big Brother 27’s Keanu And Ava Shared Their Thoughts On The BB Blockbuster Ahead Of The Finale, And Both Make Great Points

by

Season 27 of *Big Brother* is coming to a close, and one houseguest will soon be crowned the winner. The finale will determine if Ashley Hollis or Morgan Pope wins the final Head of Household competition and brings Vince Panaro to the end with them. As we get closer to the finish line, some houseguests have been discussing the new BB Blockbuster twist, and most agree it was a good addition to the game.

TopMob is following the current season of *Big Brother* online and decided to get insights directly from former Houseguests. After Ava Pearl and Keanu Soto were eliminated from Season 27, we asked them what they thought of the competition so far. Here’s what they had to say!

Keanu Believes The BB Blockbuster Amplifies The Social Element Of Gameplay More

Keanu Soto really gained an advantage from the BB Blockbuster twist, allowing him to stay in the game longer than he likely would have. However, he was quickly evicted by Vince after the twist ended. Before competing, Keanu admitted he’d only watched four seasons of Big Brother, including Season 26.

You know, even though he wasn’t super familiar with everything, he made a really good point about how the game actually brings people together. It’s not just about the gameplay itself, but how it creates a social experience, and that really struck me.

Honestly, I think this new twist is fantastic! Some folks are saying it shifts the focus from friendships to competition, but I don’t see it that way at all. If you’re the Head of Household and nominate three people, they *have* to work hard to repair those relationships if they want to stay in the game – and that’s pure social maneuvering, as far as I’m concerned. It’s a really smart addition, and I’m enjoying how unpredictable things are now. It genuinely keeps me guessing about who will be going home each week, and I absolutely love that!

Keanu performed very well in competitions during Big Brother Season 27. He’s right about something important: the Head of Household needs to stay on good terms with whoever wins the Power of Veto, and that player needs to work on improving how others see them. Keanu proved this himself when he was Head of Household – he almost eliminated Vince by nominating him, showing how powerful that dynamic can be.

But Ava Pointed Out The BB Blockbuster Is Bad For Houseguests Like Her

Ava’s game was different. She won Head of Household once, but often let other players make choices for her. She also won a competition that resulted in the dramatic exit of Rachel Reilly. Unlike Keanu, who is strong physically, Ava saw the game’s big moments from the perspective of someone who isn’t a physical threat.

The plot twist was a neat addition. It let highly competitive players excel, which is cool to watch but a little intimidating as someone who doesn’t typically do well in competitions.

Ava was intimidated by the BB Blockbuster competition because she didn’t feel confident in her competitive abilities, but I think that highlights an important lesson for future Big Brother players. Ashley pointed out that you don’t *need* to win a lot of competitions to win the game nowadays, but I still believe consistently winning challenges is the simplest way to get ahead. Players should strive to be strong in all areas – both in competitions *and* in building social connections – rather than relying heavily on just one skill.

Some viewers might argue that the many competitions in *Big Brother* Season 27 favored players like Kelley Jorgensen and Keanu, but other Houseguests had chances to eliminate them and chose different targets instead. I felt the competition balance was generally fair this season, though it will be interesting to see how future casts handle it.

The season finale of *Big Brother* 27 is on CBS this Sunday, September 28th, at 8:30 p.m. Eastern Time. Don’t miss the exciting conclusion where someone will win $750,000, and watch Morgan and Ashley battle it out!
