Warning! SPOILERS for the Wednesday, July 28 episode of Big Brother 23 below!
Heading into the third week of Big Brother 23, Brent Champagne and Britini D'Angelo found themselves sitting on the block after Xavier Prather won the Head of Household competition. Neither Brent nor Britini, who spent last week on the block as well, expected to see their faces appear on the memory wall during the nomination ceremony. Should Brent be evicted on Thursday night, it will be the first blindside of the summer. Also, there will also be some definitely irony behind the shocking potential blindside.
Neither Brent nor Britini have been liked very much amongst Big Brother fans so far this summer. At times, it is perceived that Britini takes the game a little too personally. Brent, on the other hand, is disliked for his ego and arrogance. Many of the houseguests have this same interpretation of Brent, which is why he is currently on the block.
Based on discussions seen on the live feeds and the last episode of the show, the houseguests agree that Brent is the target this week. With the entire house potentially voting to evict Brent, Brent has no idea that the possibility of him walking out the door on Thursday night is so high. If the house does in fact follow through with this plan, this will be the first blindside of the summer and a very ironic one at that. When CBS interviewed Brent for his bio for the show, the network prompted him with a question regarding his favorite past moment from Big Brother. Initially, Brent explained that he does not have a specific favorite moment. However, when watching the show, he does have what he called a "guilty pleasure." Brent admitted that he loves to watch the reactions of houseguests "who rightfully get backdoored."
Although Brent is not necessarily getting backdoored this week, he will be blindsided should he get evicted on Thursday night. Ironically, his "guilty pleasure" will soon become his reality, as America will potentially see an authentic look of shock on his face when longtime host Julie Chen Moonves announces the results of the live vote. Many viewers believe that Brent does in fact deserve to be evicted. Aside from his ego, Brent was also accused of touching Hannah Chaddha inappropriately within the first week of the season. Since then, fans have been rooting for him to go home, especially before jury.
From what viewers have seen on the live feeds, Brent actually has no idea that will most likely be the third houseguest evicted this season. While he does not think it will be a unanimous vote, he is under the impression that he will have enough votes to stay inside the house for another week. Maybe Brent will have a new favorite moment from the show after becoming a victim of his "guilty pleasure."
Big Brother 23 airs Sundays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at 8pm EST on CBS.
