Drama in the Big Brother 27 house is no surprise, but here’s one twist we didn’t see coming: Rachel Reilly suggesting herself as a nominee. Even more surprising? She might actually be partially responsible for the conversation that could lead her there.
What’s Going On?
The situation stems from a conversation yesterday, when Ashley informed Rachel that Mickey, Morgan, Vince, and Zach had discussed her as a potential first juror. Naturally, this didn’t sit well with Rachel. For a seasoned player like her, the idea of being the first juror—essentially stuck in limbo without a shot at the grand prize—is the ultimate letdown. It means being away from family longer without any payoff.

This revelation seemed to spark some soul-searching. Later, Rachel had a private conversation with Mickey where she subtly floated the idea of going on the block—though she used the codename “Ava” to avoid drawing attention in the game edit. It’s unclear whether Rachel was sincerely considering leaving before jury or if this was a calculated move to steer the nomination away from Jimmy and toward Vince.
Who’s Actually in Danger?
At this point, Mickey and Morgan are still weighing their options, with Jimmy remaining the frontrunner for renomination. Vince is being discussed as well, but Mickey seems hesitant to target him directly. Katherine also remains a possible choice, especially since Keanu is guaranteed to remove himself from the block with the Power of Veto.
Rachel’s emotional pitch may have influenced Mickey, but it’s unclear if it was a sincere sacrifice or strategic misdirection. Either way, her name being in the mix is a risky play that could backfire—intentionally or not.
What Comes Next?
The looming BB Block Buster competition is a major wildcard. If Jimmy remains in the house after that, he becomes a huge threat—one that Mickey may not be able to ignore much longer. The same logic could eventually apply to Rachel. Her gameplay, connections, and reputation make her a powerful figure. Keeping her off the block now might just delay the inevitable.
Bottom Line: Rachel’s unexpected willingness to go on the block has thrown a wrench into the week’s strategy. Whether it’s a clever manipulation or a miscalculated gamble, the next move could determine not just who goes up—but who takes control of the game moving forward.
