There’s no loyalty on “Big Brother 27.”
Adrian Rocha was the third person axed from the house after being betrayed back-to-back by his allies.
First, Lauren Domingue nominated Rocha to stay in the other side of the house’s good graces. Then, Vince Panaro and Zach Cornell voted him out to avoid a tie vote that Domingue would’ve had to break.
“It was so devastating for me,” the 23-year-old carpenter exclusively told The Post after his eviction. “Leaving the house, I feel like I lost the opportunity of a lifetime. I just felt like I had so much game to give.”
Rocha explained that he feels “more betrayed” by Panaro and Cornell despite his admitted frustrations with Domingue for nominating him.
“It was more of a surprise at the moment, right? Versus Lauren, I knew she was struggling,” he said. “As soon as she got to HOH, I was like, ‘What the flip you mean you’re potentially thinking of putting me up?’ But as long as none of The Bond went up, we had the numbers to keep whoever we wanted, even if Kelley was sitting on the block. But she was just too scared to make a move. And that wasn’t surprising.”
“But Vince and Zach… that was surprising because I thought I had them in my corner,” Rocha added. “I needed to secure a tie, but I guess it was too risky for Vince to draw that line in the sand. And Zach didn’t want to put a target on him and Lauren. I’m like, bro, I thought you said you weren’t gonna simp over a girl!”
Rocha, who said in his eviction interview with Julie Chen Moonves he wanted to target former winner Rachel Reilly, also called out the rest of the cast for being “too sacred to make moves.”
“There is really no loyalty,” he told The Post. “And that’s one of the reasons why they don’t want to draw the line in the sand. I felt that Vince was throwing HOHs because he was so well insulated. Zach probably didn’t want to win too much unless he felt threatened by who was still in the competition. So then it really felt like I had to win because my alliances wouldn’t want to take that shot. And if I had took that shot, then they wouldn’t want me playing the middle. They would want to go on the winning side, which would have been mine.”
“But yeah, there wasn’t much loyalty in the house,” Rocha continued. “Everyone’s playing chicken. They want to play it safe and and the thing is, eventually the numbers will dwindle. Kelley and Keanu keep taking themselves off, forcing the houseguest to have to take a real shot at one side. Eventually they will have to. But I wasn’t afraid to make that line right now.”
“Big Brother” airs Sundays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at 8 pm ET on CBS and Paramount+.
