Season Stats

Ratings - Camp Letters special edition

Downs are here to stay unless/until they remove the ban on BBViewer. That's probably corporate's doing and not a BB decision, but we still lose no matter what the cause. Especially since a lot of staffers use BBViewer themselves. This show is not like any other and should get a little consideration. Dear Camp Administration, The camp facilities are dusty, the balls are deflated, and the food is stale. A couple campers were sent here by mistake when they were supposed to go to court-ordered detention. Counselors wander off to smoke cigarettes and they don't pay attention to campers' needs, especially the new ones who are too shy to ask where the bathrooms are. You can do better. Why don't you? Your pal, dingo
Won: Time Capsule 1: Six days egg HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 1   Angela Murray - 52 Instagram - TikTok Married, 4 kids, 3 grandkids - BB and TAR veteran Real estate agent Syracuse, UT (orig Long Beach, CA) Dear Mrs Murray, It's surprising you returned to camp since you cried so much your first summer here, but maybe participating in that cafeteria skit last year made you forget what a miserable time you had before. But you're here, talking and acting like a high school gossip girl when you're a married mother. You could have had it all but no, you're doing too much like you did last time, and you aren't going to make it til the end of term, again. Your pal, dingo	Won: Nothing yet HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 1   Barrett Pfeiffer - 27 Bluesky - Instagram - TikTok - Our Reality podcast Single - fan applicant, feedster Jumbotron engineer Austin, TX (orig Benton, AR) Dear Spicy Barrett, I appreciate that you studied the camp brochures so thoroughly before you arrived here, but did you think it was enough just to know how camp functions? It's time you get up and do something. You can't be a detached observer like in the past and expect to win the top camp award if your only accomplishment was being tall wallpaper. Your pal and bloomf, dingo PS Summer flings are fun but one two-way is better than two one-ways. In order to get your head in the game, no-ways is probably best.
Won: Week 1 Safety HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 1   Chuk Anyanwu - 27 Instagram Single - recruit Supply chain analyst Dallas, TX Dear Chukwuemeka, One time I wanted to walk across a street that had a lot of traffic on it, going both ways. So I pushed the little button and pretty soon it chirped at me and I crossed the street. Do you have any blue socks? I like Cheez-its. Your pal, dingo	Won: Time Capsule 3: BB Bribe HOH 1 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 1   Dianelys "Dee" Valladares - 29 Instagram - TikTok Single - Survivor and Challenge vet Travel influencer - Miami, FL Dear Dianelys, Admin is pleased you've acclimatized to camp culture so well, given it's pretty different from what you're used to. You've infiltrated well, and set yourself up to get your way without having to do much work yourself. Be careful not to appear too bloodthirsty or let your killer instincts show too much before their time comes. Some of your fellow campers are already seeing signs of your bloodlust and it's scaring them, especially the little ones. Your pal, dingo
Won: Time Capsule 2: Diamond veto HOH 1 - Veto 1 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 2   Rick Devens - 42 Twitter - Bluesky - Instagram Married, 2 kids - Survivor vet News anchor (formerly, now college comms director) Macon, GA Dear PatRick, See Dee. Especially the bloodthirsty killer part. You two are headed for a nasty showdown sooner or later, and camp officials just hope you don't get too much blood on the sidewalks. Your pal, dingo	Won: Nothing yet HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 1   Drew Campbell - 22 Instagram - TikTok Single - fan applicant Surgical dental assistant Temecula, CA Dear Andrew, What are you doing? Like your buddy system buddy Barrett, you studied the brochures, and you took the extra steps of making sure all your fellow campers got to know you, and you set yourself up as camp clown. Are you too full of yourself to see you've been duped and hung out to dry? Your tent-mates told you to sneak around the other tents and report back, but you got in too deep and now they won't let you back in your original tent. Wake up before it's too late. Your pal, dingo PS That blond lady wants to push you into the lake.
Won: Nothing yet HOH 1 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 1   Haley Thogmartin - 29 Instagram Single - recruit Telemedicine exec Wildwood, MO (orig Neosho, MO) Dear Ms Thogmartin, Camp officials were very sorry to learn you were dragged through the mud, beaten to a bloody pulp, stabbed in the threatening tattoo, and left for dead, so they are sending you 3,600 face masks at no charge as consolation. Put a few on and tell yourself you aren't a mean girl, you're bubbly! Your pal, dingo	Won: Nothing yet HOH 1 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 2   Kamuela 'Kamu' Kirk - 32 Twitter - Instagram Single - fan applicant? MMA fighter Phoenix, AZ Dear Kamuela, You are not my pal. dingo An empty hamster wheel before someone's evicted or otherwise leaves means I've put them on ignore, and won't be listening to them or reporting what they do or say unless it's pertinent to season events. In my opinion, this guy is a nasty piece of work who should never have been cast, and I don't want to give him more of my time, energy, or bandwidth than I already have.
Won: Nothing yet HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 1   LaTrice Verrett - 57 58 Instagram Divorced, 4 kids - fan applicant, feedster Boutique sales Maplewood, NJ (orig Kankakee, IL) Dear Patricia, Some of your fellow campers have a problem with how you present yourself but we both know it's a them problem and not a you problem. You are extremely amusing especially when you get irritated, your time in the camp kitchen is highly appreciated, and most of them are just crybabies with 'issues'. Poop on them. Your pal, dingo	Won: Nothing yet HOH 0 - Veto 1 - Noms 2/1/0 - HN 1   Lyric Medeiros - 25 Instagram - TikTok - Twitch Single - fan applicant? Attorney Honolulu, HI Dear Lyric, The way you've handled yourself at camp is impressive, especially given how much adversity has been shoved down your throat. Camp administrators are considering letting you stay for the full summer term, maybe even until the camp awards assembly on the last day. Your pal, dingo PS Things change quickly at camp: now you're in trouble, girl.
Won: Week 3 Block Buster HOH 0 - Veto 1 - Noms 2/0/0 - HN 1   Mallory Aurichio - 24 Instagram Single Rocket scientist Township of Washington, NJ Dear Mallory, Nobody ever told you summer camp is a lot of fun and games, and if they did, they lied. It's not rocket science: take a cue from your friend Lyric. She was rejected by 17 other camps, got beaten up by Katy Perry, and lost her spit-swap partner, but she's still smiling after landing here at Camp BB. And not only smiling, but endearing herself to her fellow campers like you should be doing! And I don't mean just Barrett and Melody, but campers who actually have some influence on others. Go do some work! Your pal, dingo	Won: Nothing yet HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 2/0/0 - HN 1   Melody Morris - 24 Instagram - Comedy Instagram Single? - recruit? Corporate game show host (and stand-up comic) Maricopa, AZ (orig Thornton, CO) Dear Melody, See Mallory. You are two of a kind, you're the angry yin to her mopey yang. You're the fireball to her wet rag. Neither of you is doing much to help yourselves, and you could be. Summer camp isn't that hard: make friends and you can influence people. Wishing won't do it any more than headbanging around the exercise yard before a game will make you win it. Go do some work! Your pal, dingo
Won: Nothing yet HOH 0 - Veto 1 - Noms 2/0/0 - HN 1   Taylor Brown - 27 Instagram Single - fan applicant Elementary school counselor Deerfield Beach, FL Dear Taylor, You're doing fine. Keep going. Your pal, dingo	Won: Week 1 Block Buster HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 1   Yash Patel - 24 Instagram Single - recruit Financial analyst Monroe Township, NJ Dear Yash, Camp staff would like a word about your hair. Did you steal scissors from the arts and crafts tent? Did you lose a bet? Please report to camp offices and explain yourself. Your pal, dingo
Won: Week 1 Safety; Week 2 Block Buster HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/1/0 - HN 1   Jason De Puy - 35 Twitter - Instagram - TikTok Pre-BB26 part 1 - part 2 - Reality press event as Ainsley Single - BB fan/pre-season test run veteran Drag queen - West Hollywood, CA (orig San Francisco, CA) 3rd evicted - Day 24 He wasn't grouped with the other reality vets and he downplayed Salina's celebrity, and I respect that he did this as Jason without the built-in advantages of being a known entity. But he messed up the first week when he announced he wanted to go after those three, and it got back to them while they were in power. He compounded that when he admitted to several that his sincere-sounding bond with Angela was fake, and that got back to her. But it all resulted in a hilariously explosive noms ceremony, and he topped that with his teakettle-clanging after Kamu attacked him at Mallory's tea party. Yes he was a messy bitch but he was also genuine, vulnerable, funny, and easily my star of the season.	Won: Week 1 Safety HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/1/0 - HN 1   Jack 'Rome' Seymour - 28 Twitter - Instagram - Trash Instagram Single - recruit Pickleball coach Delray Beach, FL (orig Traverse City, MI) 2nd evicted - Day 17 If you took all the brojock buffoons we've ever had and rolled them into one, you'd get a cartoon character named Jack who decided he'd rather be called Rome. He fell fast and hard for Lyric and maybe she did for him too, and he cry-sobbed for hours with no tears. He acted like he thought he was the star of the show, but his early exit indicates otherwise.
Won: Nothing HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/1/0 - HN 0   Ashley Trail - 24 Twitter - Instagram Single - applicant Bartender (and actormodel) Chicago, IL (orig Alton, IL) 1st evicted - Day 10 She was an NPC at first, but many always are in the first days. She tried to get in the game when she went on the block as a renom but it was too late and she did it badly, so she's now a charter member of the not-so-illustrious first evicted club. She said she'd never had a hamburger before (how is that possible?) but now she has, so her time here wasn't a total loss.	Won: Hot lava bath HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 0   Rachel Reilly - 41 Instagram Married, 2 kids - three-time BB veteran Casting agent Hoover, AL (orig Concord, NC via Las Vegas, NV) Eliminated via volcano - Day 1 She came in dramatically after (almost) everyone else again, dressed in red again, but this time she was there for a stunt. We've had a couple other fake move-ins before - think Anthony Scaramucci on Celebs 2 or human Ainsley (Cosette Rinab) on BB26. Rachel had people going and thinking she was there as a player but no: 175 million years ago, a dinosaur carried her off and threw her into a volcano before she even got to play a comp or invent a new catchphrase.
