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.
Daniel nominated Michael Bruner and Terrance Higgins for eviction. However, when Michael won the veto and saved himself, the house encouraged Daniel to replace him with Taylor Hale. After Paloma revealed her plan to target the strong men in the house to Taylor, Taylor warned Monte Taylor that Paloma was coming after him. He asked Paloma about it, and Paloma said that Taylor was lying. The house turned against Taylor, and viewers were outraged about their microaggressions toward her, including calling her «aggressive» without any apparent reason. When Daniel nominated Taylor, he told her that maybe she should apologize for some of the things that she said in the house, leaving Taylor upset and confused.
