Brace yourself for a pivotal turn in Big Brother 27. On Friday, September 5, 2025, the controversial White Locust twist ousted Rachel Reilly without a vote, and the house is still boiling. Less than 24 hours after Mickey Lee was voted out 6–1 over Ashley Hollis, Week 9 kicked into overdrive with Head of Household Lauren Domingue pushing a surgical plan built around the Power of Veto.
By Saturday, September 6, 2025, the game had its answer: Morgan Pope won the Week 9 Veto. The draw featured Lauren, Morgan, Ashley Hollis, and Will Williams, with Vince Panaro and Ava Pearl selected to play. Lauren’s intention was to let someone else take the medallion so she could follow through on a backdoor plan for Keanu Soto — while keeping her fingerprints off the move.
Lauren even considered throwing the competition to preserve deniability. Vince claimed he would throw it, too, though questions linger about his true loyalties. Publicly, he assured Morgan he would protect her. Privately, he has a final two-deal with Lauren. Those competing assurances set up a tense post–Veto chessboard.
What the Week 9 Veto means
With Morgan holding the Veto, the Week 9 board resets around Lauren’s targets. Lauren nominated Morgan, Ashley, and Will at the start of the week. However, her stated hope was that either Morgan or another player would win and use the Veto, opening a path to renominate Keanu. If that plan proceeds, Keanu could be the casualty of a classic Big Brother backdoor move.
- Lauren won Week 9 HOH and nominated Morgan, Ashley, and Will.
- The Veto players were Lauren, Morgan, Ashley, Will, plus Vince and Ava.
- Vince said he would throw the comp; his loyalty is in doubt.
- Morgan won the Power of Veto on September 6, 2025.
Vince’s positioning is especially murky. Publicly, he’s promising Morgan protection. Privately, he’s locked in a final two-deal with Lauren. Those competing signals make the post–Veto ceremony dynamics volatile for The Judges Alliance, which is already under pressure after the one‑two punch of Mickey’s eviction and Rachel’s removal.

State of the house (and why fans are heated)
Rachel’s elimination at the White Locust Resort on September 5 sparked intense backlash. The twist arrived with former Houseguest Tyler Crispen presiding. He told fans not to blame him and teased Tuesday’s episode as “the biggest of the season” with “no words” for what happened. The aftershocks are everywhere: strategy talks carry an edge, and viewers are scrutinizing every alliance promise for cracks.
Only eight players remain: Ashley Hollis, Morgan Pope, Vince Panaro, Ava Pearl, Keanu Soto, Kelley Jorgensen, Lauren Domingue, and Will Williams. With Morgan now safe, the pressure shifts to Lauren to execute the plan she floated before the competition.

What’s next for Big Brother 27 spoilers
All eyes now turn to Monday, September 8, 2025, when the Veto meeting should lock in the final nominees. If Lauren stays the course, Keanu could find himself on the block. Then, on Tuesday, September 9, 2025, the much‑hyped White Locust episode airs on CBS, which should finally show how the twist unfolded and why the fan outrage erupted.
Until then, expect frantic damage control across alliances. Morgan’s win narrows Lauren’s options, but it also gives her the cover she wanted to swing at Keanu without owning the move in the competition itself. For now, the Week 9 Power of Veto has cracked the game wide open — exactly the kind of late‑summer chaos fans expect.
