Who won Big Brother 25?
Who won Big Brother 25? Many sites had Matt Klotz as the predicted winner, but it was Jag Bains who took home the title. In his speech, he declared: “My hands are covered in your blood. I am the most dominant, masterful, and strategic player in this house,” and the jury agreed with him.
“I’ve always said you should advocate for yourself. And that was me truly advocating for myself. That’s a hundred days of buildup for this one moment. And this is the one chance I have to share with the jury what game I’ve played and to own up to everything,’ he told Entertainment Weekly. “So I knew as I was giving my speech that I was getting passionate, but it was — this is who I am. I played this game, I’m going to own up to it. And at the end of the day, I did have a lot of people’s blood on my hands. I didn’t lie in my speech, so I just owned up to it.”
According to TVLine’s survey of readers, Jag and Matt were almost neck-and-neck for the title, while Bowie was the least popular out of who would win and should win. Jag, Matt and Bowie Jane made Big Brother history when they entered the house in August—in more ways than one. Bowie was the first Australian to compete in the US series; Matt was the series’ first deaf housemate; and Jag made it as Big Brother‘s first Sikh houseguest.
BB host Julie Chen Moonves explained to Entertainment Weekly the strengths and weaknesses of each final housemate. Jag’s strength is “his resume! 7 POV wins?! He broke a new record. His weakness is that people in the jury may have respect for his comp skills, but do they by and large feel deep love or affection for him? Some are angry with him because they could never trust him,” she said.
“Matt’s biggest strength is his social game. He is beloved by pretty much everyone. His weakness is trusting Jag too much and following what Jag wants. Plus, his number of wins are the lowest of the final 3,” while Bowie’s “strength is her 3 HOH wins, and they were all recent so they are fresh in the minds of the jurors. Her weakness is that she has no bonds with any of the jurors. No one there is close with her.”
Having a diverse collection of people entering the Big Brother house was important to Moonves, who told Entertainment Weekly in another interview that she hopes it’s a trend that continues. “Look how long Felicia and Cirie have lasted. I mean, they’re going to be in at least the final six. And one of them will be in at least the final five if not taking it all the way. We used to have one older person, who was middle-aged plus, maybe every other season along with a bunch of young hotties,” she said.
The 25th season of Big Brother was the longest season ever, with the final three houseguests spending 100 consecutive days in the house. The first twist of the season came during the first episode, when BB alumni Danielle Reyes, Britney Haynes, and Frankie Grande sneaked into the house to unleash their “Time Laser”, which opened up a multiverse within the house.
