Big Brother 25: Meet Cirie Fields, a surprise 17th Houseguest thanks to the ‘Multiverse’ twist

You all guessed it… Cirie Fields is the 17th houseguest on ‘Big Brother 25’ thanks to the ‘Multiverse’ twist!

In the final moments of the live 90-minute premiere of “Big Brother 25,” host Julie Chen Moonves unveiled one of the biggest shockeroos of all time: “Survivor” legend Cirie Fields would be joining the cast as the 17th houseguest. Cirie’s son, Jared Fields, had already been announced as a cast member, though he hinted he’d be keeping his identity secret so as not to come off as a threat to his fellow players. Now that they’re both in the house, there’s no telling whether Cirie and Jared will reveal their relationship to the others, or if they’ll keep it to themselves.

Cirie is often cited as the best “Survivor” player to never win the game. She took part in four seasons of that CBS reality TV show, coming in fourth place in “Panama,” third place in “Micronesia,” 17th place in “Heroes vs. Villains” and sixth place in “Game Changers.”

More recently, Cirie competed on the Peacock competition program “The Traitors,” where she wound up as the winner. On that show, she had to lie, cheat and steal to the “Faithful” contestants since she was picked to be one of the duplicitous “Traitors.”

By the end of the first episode of “BB25,” Jared had found himself nominated for eviction when he lost one of the four backyard challenges. The other nominees are Cory WurtenbergerFelicia Cannon and Kirsten Elwin. Bucking from tradition, the nominees were not picked by a Head of Household, as that person won’t be revealed until Sunday’s episode.

Joining Cirie, Jared, Cory, Felicia and Kirsten in the house this summer are America LopezBlue KimBowie JaneCameron HardinHisam GoueliIzzy GleicherJag BainsLuke ValentineMatt KlotzMecole HayesRed Utley and Reilly Smedley. Who are YOU rooting for to win?

The 25th anniversary season of “Big Brother” will take place over 100 days, a new record. The ultimate winner will claim the $750,000 grand prize, but they’ll first have to face off against each other in countless mental and physical challenges and live evictions to reach the end.
