Big Brother fans get to participate this season with America’s Veto.
Makensy Manbeck won the special power on the first day of the season.
The “secret” power allowed Makensy to save herself or someone else from the block.
But the power would also take control away from the Head of Household.
If Makensy used the power to save someone, America (the Big Brother fans) would decide on a replacement.

Big Brother spoilers reveal that Makensy used her power. It also led to a House Meeting.
How does America’s Veto work?
America’s Veto allows Big Brother fans to name the third nominee in Week 3.
Kenney Kelley and Tucker Des Lauriers are already on the block.
Cedric Hodges is safe as the HOH, Makensy is safe due to her power, and Angela Murray is safe because Tucker saved her with the Power of Veto.
That leaves nine houseguests that fans can vote on. BB fans will decide the third nominee through a vote on the night of August 7.
Below are the houseguests at risk of joining the block. The person America chooses will play in the August 8 AI Arena Challenge with Kenney and Tucker. The winner of that challenge gains safety.
- Brooklyn Rivera
- Cam Sullivan-Brown
- Chelsie Baham
- Joseph Rodriguez
- Kimo Apaka
- Leah Peters
- Quinn Martin
- Rubina Bernabe
- T’Kor Clottey

Quinn says he is using his “secret” power in Week 4. He has to survive the Week 3 Eviction Ceremony first (if he gets voted onto the block through America’s Veto).
A houseguest promised to protect Angela in Week 4. It was an interesting development on the Big Brother feeds this week.
Here’s the updated BB26 schedule for August. We have a two-hour episode coming up and a Tuesday night installment.
