Won: BBBB Week 8; Egg 5 days HOH 3 - Veto 0 - Noms 3/0/0 - HN 1   Vince Panaro - 34 Instagram Has a girlfriend - prior season alternate Unemployed West Hills, CA	Won: Immunity Week 1; London trip HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 2/0/1 - HN 2   Cliffton "Will" Williams - 50 Instagram - YouTube Married, 3 kids, 2 stepkids, 9 grands - fan applicant, casual feedster College sports podcaster Charlotte, NC (orig Wallace, SC) 2nd juror - 10th evicted - Day 66 He was an easy early target but after two trips to the block he rebelled, and then stayed safe until Week 9. He usually had good reads and knew what was going on, but was never in power to do much about it. He was in various alliances but again, none that drove the game until the Judges had a good run for a couple weeks. He bonded with several but especially Ava and Ashley, and he often complained about the kiddies' immaturity and conversation topics. He had a quick wit that entertained them and us, especially with his great Diaries, and his emotions were deep and touching for HOH letters and evictions. He was loved by virtually all of them and he got the boot because of that. He's a prince of a man and one of the few shining lights of the season, and I wish him nothing but the very best.
Won: Immunity Week 1; Movie guest; Unlocked gooping; Overnight splat task guest HOH 1 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 2   Rachel Reilly Villegas - 40 Instagram Married, 2 kids - two-time veteran Casting agent Hoover, AL (orig Concord, NC via Las Vegas, NV) 1st juror - 9th evicted/eliminated - Day 59 She could have played down her vet/winner status and embedded herself as an equal by Week 2 but instead she reminded them often, which may have hurt her game. But that's Rachel. She dressed for ceremonies, fights, and pivotal gametalks, but her dramatics were campy and fun, and always intentional. Her maturity and social game were so improved from her prior seasons, there's no comparison, and she made legions of new fans (including me) while retaining her originals. She looked after them all on a daily basis and she gamed hard but subtly, except when it came to fighting for her allies, when she was highly vocal. She was a target for most but lasted til jury without hitting the block, until a random and ridiculous twist took her out. Hands-down Star of the Season and it's not even close.	Won: BBBB Week 6; HOH Interrogation Week 2 HOH 1 - Veto 1 - Noms 3/0/0 - HN 1   Mickey Lee - 35 Instagram Single - prior season alternate Event curator Atlanta, GA (orig Jacksonville, FL) 8th evicted - Day 59 She was playing a good game with good reads, and was well-liked, until she took over Rylie's HOH. He railed at her about it but she finessed him magnificently until he agreed to go on the block as a pawn. (He railed about that later but not to her.) She got such an extreme case of HOHitis it lasted four weeks, and made her a house target. She had a reprieve the week after her HOH because Ava put up the big targets, and then she hit the block every week. She saved herself by winning Block Buster, then by winning veto, and then they got her out. She did a lot of the cooking for everyone, and told good stories, and she fibbed about wearing an original T'kor hat that was actually a $5 cheapie from Shein.
Won: Nothing HOH 0 - Veto 1 - Noms 0/1/0 - HN 1   Katherine Woodman - 23 Instagram Single - recruit? Fine dining server Columbia, SC (orig Gwinnett County, GA) 7th evicted - Day 52 She was a non-entity in the game, uninvolved in most gametalks and alliances, and she was largely absent from the shows except when she won a shuffleboard veto. Her only claim to fame was Rylie's attachment to her, and even Diary appearances about that were missing until his HOH was taken over, and then we finally heard her say 'his charm is working' on her. On the feeds he obsessed at and about her nonstop but she didn't reciprocate, at least not openly, though she did initiate a lot of their hug and kiss sessions. When asked if he's her boyfriend she said no, and the very peculiar showmance leaned into major cringe territory as he started snapping at her when he was angry with others.	Won: BBBB Week 4 HOH 1 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/1/0 - HN 0   Rylie Jeffries - 27 Instagram Single - fan applicant Professional bull rider Luther, OK 6th evicted - Day 45 He came in with rumors that ranged from wildly exaggerated to false, and he did nothing to redeem himself. He threw a hinky vote to evict fellow brojock Zae at the first vote and he boasted he could win any comp, but he only won two. He had a hissy fit when his HOH was taken over by Mickey, and another when Rachel put him up as renom, but most of his frequent angry outbursts were released at Katherine, and then he was friendly to whoever he'd just cussed out. He told Katherine she's his girl and he's going to marry her, but he didn't ask her thoughts about that. He should be grateful AF for the omissions and positive edit they gave him. Good riddance.
Won: $10,000; Move-in comp 1; Option to buy safety; Immunity Week 1; Overnight splat task HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 1   Zach Cornell - 27 Instagram Single - recruit Marketing manager Cartersville, GA 5th evicted - Day 38 He won the first move-in comp but then invaded Julie's personal space and her toss to commercial on the premiere, and a week later he bawled when fellow brojock Zae got the boot. He played the same interwoven alliances game as Vince, including multiple alliances with Vince, but he got away with it longer, until he didn't. Morgan liked him but he liked Lauren, and Ashley thought he liked her but he didn't. He had the face, body, smile, charm of a champ but he self-hyped those qualities too much, making him unattractive. He had a secret veto that could have saved him but he didn't use it, so Julie whacked him with her cards.	Won: Move-in comp 2; Selected 1st HOH players; Movie guest HOH 1 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/1/0 - HN 1   Jimmy Heagerty - 25 Instagram Has a boyfriend - fan applicant AI consultant Washington, DC (orig Sarasota, FL) 4th evicted - Day 31 He was the 2nd HOH but like Vince the prior week, he was over-allied and self-painted into a corner, so he put up his bestie Rachel's bestie Amy as renom pawn, and off she went. He worked hard at being sassy and campy, especially to and with Rachel, but she pulls it off without even trying and his comedy usually felt more performative than entertaining. But at least he put in an effort, which is more than most of them this year. His dress-up noms were almost as cringe as Todrick's, and that was magnified by his resentment when he hit the block a couple weeks later. He was a good sidekick for Rachel and liked by most of them.
Won: BBBB Week 2 HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/1/0 - HN 0   Adrian Rocha - 23 24 Instagram Single - fan applicant Carpenter San Antonio, TX 3rd evicted - Day 24 His pre-season stuff was wild, with his homemade wall comp and boisterous personality, but that guy didn't show up, maybe due to the syndrome of everyone being center-of-attention types and there just isn't enough limelight for everyone. His comp skills were good and he would have been a better choice for Rachel's protegé than Keanu but they had zero rapport, and Adrian's social game was absent with almost everyone. He had his moments with his emotional support bread and issues with doors, but he harped about honesty and loyalty too much so maybe this just wasn't the show for him. But he's a good guy and I wish him well.	Won: Day 1 accomplice HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/1/0 - HN 1   Amy Bingham - 43 Instagram Single, 3 kids - fan applicant, prior callback, casual feedster Insurance agent Stockton, CA 2nd evicted - Day 17 She didn't do as much as some in the 'older woman' casting slot before her, but she got away with being the move-in Accomplice by doing a few tasks without being caught. She and Rachel bonded quickly and tightly as fellow moms, but their closeness made a target of Amy and she got the boot to weaken Rachel's game. She was generally liked in there, and she cried a lot but she handled slop well. She got out by the July 31 deadline to get her job of 20 years back, if she wants it.
Won: Nothing HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 0   Isaiah "Zae" Frederich - 23 Instagram Single - applied for TAR Salesperson Provo, UT Phoenix, AZ (orig Paducah, KY) 1st evicted - Day 10 It's nice to get a brojock out early, especially first, and between constantly exhibiting his muscles and his smarts, he didn't do much to help prevent that. He didn't lay down to die when he hit the block so that's something, but he campaigned repetitively and relentlessly, holding voters hostage for hours at a time and talking 100 mph at them without pausing for breath. He landed himself on TMZ and tangled with Rachel, and that's about all he'll be remembered for.
