Big Brother 26: Julie Chen Moonves Reveals Shocking Reason Behind Angela’s Survival and the Game-Changing Twist Shaking the House!

Each week, Big Brother host Julie Chen Moonves will weigh in on the latest events inside the house. This week, she reacts to Leah’s big Veto game move, why people keep saving Angela, Joseph’s elimination, and what the end of the A.I. Arena means for the rest of the season.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Do you think Leah made the right call taking Angela off the block with the Veto?

JULIE CHEN MOONVES: Yes, because she acted with her heart. When you act with your heart, it can’t be wrong. Plus she kept a big target in the house. Smart.

Quinn fears everyone will just take Angela to the end. Do you think that’s why people keep saving her, or is something else fueling those choices?

I think people in the house genuinely like her and see her as a fun mom figure. Plus they aren’t threatened by her so why not keep her ? Plus I bet they don’t want to get in trouble by their real moms by voting her out!

This season there seem to be more alliances but less allegiances than ever. Why do you think that is?

This group is playing game! Do what is right for you always. This is Big Brother people!

Is Joseph delusional about his game?

Delusional is an exaggeration. But he has a point. He did indeed copy [season 2 winner] Dr. Will by not winning a competition and being chill about it. But people probably think he’s delusional for drawing the comparisons because Dr. Will was charismatic about it. Joseph is liked by all in the house.

How do you think the end of the A.I. Arena will impact the game?

I think it could make the houseguests a little more predictable and possibly lead to that herd mentality when people vote with majority of the house rather than with their heart. Wrong!
