BB24: Why Daniel Should’ve Been Able To Play For HOH After Paloma’s Exit
Ahead of the first live eviction of Big Brother 24, Paloma Aguilar unexpectedly left the game due to a personal issue, leaving both of Head of Household (HOH) Daniel Durston's nominees for eviction in the game, and, because of this, Daniel should have been allowed to play in the next HOH competition. Daniel always knew that his HOH reign could be affected by the Backstage Twist, but the details were not revealed until the live eviction by host Julie Chen Moonves. As Backstage Boss, Joe «Pooch» Pucciarelli sent three houseguests, Paloma, Alyssa Snider, and Brittany Hoopes «backstage» with Backstage Passes, which meant that they could not participate in any competitions, vote, or be nominated, but they could still somehow go home. America was able to vote for which of the three women they wanted to save from eviction. No one knew how the twist was going to work.
