Mickey Lee Evicted; Rachel Reilly Sacrificed in White Locust Twist; Lauren Domingue Crowned Head of Household

Mickey Lee was voted out of the Big Brother 27 house by a 6-1 margin Sunday night, just before a surprise twist saw Rachel Reilly abruptly eliminated via the White Locust mechanic and Lauren Domingue named Head of Household for Week 9.

The back-to-back departures mark a dramatic shift as the season moves into its jury phase. Following the non-eviction ouster of Reilly, Domingue asserted her power by nominating Ashley Hollis, Morgan Pope and Will Williams for eviction, setting the stage for another turbulent week at the mysterious White Locust Resort.

Eviction and Twist Details

• Week 8 Eviction: Mickey Lee, a member of the Judges alliance, was blindsided, losing six of seven votes to Ashley Hollis.
• White Locust Sacrifice: During a 24-hour live feed blackout, host Julie Chen Moonves and the season’s Mastermind unveiled the White Locust Resort twist, eliminating Rachel Reilly from the game as the first juror without a traditional eviction vote.

New Power Shifts

• HOH Competition: Upon feed restoration, Lauren Domingue emerged victorious as Week 9 Head of Household.
• Nominations: Domingue placed Hollis, Pope and Williams on the block, forcing her former allies to scramble for safety in the upcoming Power of Veto and BB Blockbuster competitions.

What’s Next

• Veto Competition: Scheduled for Saturday, the Power of Veto will determine whether one nominee secures safety.
• Blockbuster Finale: The BB Blockbuster twist continues to influence nominations and replacements, promising further game-changing moves.
• Jury Phase Begins: With seven contestants left, the season enters its final stretch toward the $750,000 grand prize.

Fans can expect alliances to fracture and unexpected blindsides as the White Locust twist upends traditional strategy and heightens the stakes in the Big Brother house.
