total pts

Two Reds on the Block
LaTrice nominates Haley, Chuk and Barrett — the first time the season’s dominant alliance has two of its own on the block together.
The Ceasefire Cracks in Half
Barrett, Drew, and Melody all land on the block — three of the five newbies who swore peace, now forced to fight each other.
Barrett Becomes the Third Juror
With Melody safe, the house voted 3-1 to evict Barrett in the opening half of the double. A quick 'I love you all,' and he was gone to jury.
EVICTION
Eviction Night
Thursday's live show was a two-for-one, and it belonged to the houseguest nobody was watching. Melody Morris — winless all season — won the final BB Blockbuster of BB28 to rip herself off the block, flipping the whole first vote.

FUN FACTS

  • Owns the season's best job title — he engineers Jumbotrons.

    Backstory
  • Self-described as "giggly, charming, and spicy" — IG handle to match: @spicy_buckett.

    Quirk
  • The house's resident rumor-starter — first to float the premiere-night showmance gossip.

    Nickname
    EP 1
  • Spent the early Toolshed weeks safe in the majority but stewing over his low spot in its pecking order — a foot soldier who wanted a general's chair.

    Backstory
    EP 8
  • Summed up his place in the majority on the feeds: "Man, f*** the Toolshed… unless it's advantageous to me, in which case… I love the Toolshed."

    Quirk
    EP 10
  • At Kamu's tea-party interrogation of Jason, Barrett and Drew broke the tension by modeling dresses and joking they'd invented Big Brother's catchphrase.

    Quirk
    EP 11
  • Barrett fought his way through the veto bracket — beating Dee in Round 1 and Haley in Round 2 — before falling to Kamu in the final.

    Moment
    EP 18
  • By Week 6 he was a two-time comp runner-up — losing the Week 5 veto final to Kamu and the Week 6 HOH final to Yash. Always the last one standing before the last one standing.

    Moment
    EP 20
  • Made the final round of OTEV against Yash and lost, then joined two alliances in the same week — For the American People and the Mosh Pit merger it fed into.

    Alliance
    EP 21
  • Told the icons to their faces he would not be a vote to send Mallory home once they broke the news the target had moved — and then wasn't.

    Alliance
    EP 25
  • Went from being sacrificed by Drew to winning Tiffany Mitchell's balance-beam wine press and walking away with four stones: two of Safety, two of Sacrifice.

    Moment
    EP 26
  • Voted with the majority while quietly assembling a blindside on Devens, who stayed convinced the two of them were solid.

    Alliance
    EP 28
  • Promised a Houseguest's Choice veto slot to both Yash and Drew, then pulled the only chip he had — and spent the rest of the episode explaining it to Drew.

    Moment
    EP 31
  • In his first HOH, the Jumbotron engineer put up all three reality-TV icons at once — a 'full send' that got one of them out, just not his target.

    Moment
    EP 32
  • Went from Week 10 Head of Household to a Week 11 nominee in seven days — Barrett's reward for putting all three Icons on the block was a seat right back on it.

    Moment
    EP 33
  • Outlasted everyone but Drew and Yash in the 13-hour "Pressure Cooker", holding on into the middle of the night as a Have-Not — and was evicted 3–1 four days later as BB28's third juror.

    Moment
    EP 34
  • Exited fast as the third juror with just five words — 'I love you all' — and no goodbye hugs.

BIO

Flirty, unpredictable, and happiest with an audience. Barrett brings an energy that can read as fun one week and as messy the next, and he seems far more interested in the social game than the strategic one.

🎯 PRE-SEASON FANTASY TAKE

A wildcard with unclear strategic depth. The "spicy" personality generates screen time and chaos, but there's no clear comp résumé or game plan on record — draft him for upside, not floor.

PRE-SEASON STRATEGY READ

Charm his way in, keep things loose, and stir when it suits him.
