LaTrice Verrett

The Superfan Den Mother

Boutique Salesperson

9th place · Juror — Out Episode 28

SEASON RECAP

Went out 4–2 as **the first juror of BB28**, losing the Block Buster she'd just finished arguing proved she could win comps. Warm, funny and cheerfully honest that she was never quite sure what was going on — and not remotely quiet about how she felt about Barrett.

SEASON JOURNEY

total pts

Mama's Angels Strike the Pose

Rome pulled Jason and LaTrice into the gym, named the alliance, and made them hit a Charlie's Angels pose. It was split before the pose finished — Jason's real targets are Angela and Devens, Rome's was Ashley. Three people, three different games.

So Many Waterworks

The tears came in waves. Melody broke down after the noms held (“the kid sitting alone at lunch”); LaTrice cried over Rome's betrayal while Taylor whispered to lay low and “let them kill each other”; then Rome and LaTrice cried it out in a hug. The recap didn't name itself Waterworks for nothing.

The Honor Society Convenes

Dee, Angela, LaTrice and Taylor made the women's alliance official, agreeing to call it the Honor Society — even as Angela privately started clocking Taylor as a "winner threat" inside her own new group.

Kamu Loads the Block

LaTrice, Mallory and Lyric went up, but the real plan is a Jason backdoor — an idea Drew pitched after Jason won last week's Block Buster. Kamu's reasoning: "It's not personal… Mallory's strategic, and LaLa hasn't talked game to me once all season." Lyric is the intended pawn.

Video Tape Tumble

Mallory pulls her eighth VHS tape a split second before Jason's seventh and wins the Block Buster, saving herself off the block.

The Oldest, and the Last One Standing

LaTrice outlasts the house on the Wall after 90+ minutes to become the oldest houseguest ever to win it on a regular season. Kamu takes second.

The First Non-Red Gavel

Four weeks, four Red Corner HOHs — until now. LaTrice is the first Head of Household from outside the ruling bloc, and she knows exactly who she wants out.

Kamu Torches His Own

To dodge a backdoor, Kamu climbs to the HOH room and sells out allies Haley and Chuk, floating a new four with LaTrice, Yash and Taylor.

The Backdoor That Wasn’t

LaTrice’s original plan (Barrett/Drew/Kamu to backdoor Haley) dies in the HOH room; the house talks her into hitting Haley head-on instead.

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.

Ep 19Toolshed Collapse

No Hug for LaLa

Chuk refused LaLa's goodbye hug on his way out the door, and told Julie exactly why: she wouldn't shake his hand before the Block Buster, so he wasn't about to give her a warm exit.

"LaLa Is Legitimately Confused"

In his exit interview Chuk didn't hold back — "completely shocked," certain "LaLa is legitimately confused about this game," and clear that if he'd survived, LaLa and Taylor were his next targets.

Ep 22Kamu’s Cut Short

8–1, and LaLa Stands Alone

The Mosh Pit votes as one and Kamu is gone. LaTrice casts the only vote to keep him — the lone Covenant member who kept the deal.

"Conspiring Against Me" — and Drew's Name Is on the List

LaLa, Drew and Taylor. Dee said she put up the people who had been conspiring against her; LaLa and Taylor denied it on the spot. The third chair was the story — a founding Mosh Pit member nominated by his own alliance, on the word of a man who had just admitted to the cameras he was lying. Taylor demanded chapter and verse. The episode cut out mid-argument.

LaLa Finds Out She Was the Only One Not Told

The Kamu blindside ran through the entire house except her. LaLa broke down more than once — every group she joins gets dismantled, she said, and she was ready to go home. Taylor talked her back off the ledge, then bristled the moment LaLa started pressing Angela about the vote. Even the ally who came to get her found a reason to be irritated.

"I'm Only Telling the 'Drewth'"

Drew accuses Taylor and LaLa of lining up the icons, and produces the details to back it. Barrett and Yash half-confirm him; LaLa calls him a sneaky little liar and denies naming anyone but Devens.

LaLa Wins It With Her Tongue

"Feel the Burn" turns the backyard into an 80s workout tape — and LaTrice closes out the "totally tubular tonguetwister," working the lever with her tongue alone. Two weeks after the Wall, the oldest houseguest in the house wins again.

The Veto Comes Off the Wall for Herself

No grand gesture, no deal-making. LaLa takes the veto straight off the board and off her own back, and hands Dee a decision she'd spent the whole week dodging.

Ep 25One Thousand, Minus One

Six to Two, and One of Them Was Drew

Angela, Yash, Haley, Devens, LaTrice — and Drew, who had been sitting on the block beside her that same morning. He won his way off, then voted her out. Melody and Barrett were the only two who didn't, exactly as advertised. The resistance was fully formed and still lost by four.

Five Safe, Five Still in the Year 1000

The credits rolled before Barrett handed out a single stone. Dee, Devens, Drew, Angela and Barrett are banked into the jury phase; LaTrice Verrett, Melody Morris, Taylor Brown, Yash Patel and Haley are still stranded in the past with one spot about to disappear.

Three Chairs, and Not One of Them an Icon

LaTrice, Taylor and Yash. Drew's first nomination ceremony kept every Crossover safe, kept Melody safe, and pointedly avoided the Icons — from the houseguest who has spent all season saying he wanted the big alliances nuked. Dee noticed.

Four Spheres, Four Minutes

"Your Game in Ruins" buried the nominees in a quarry of coloured spheres, then made them lean over a balcony and drop the right ones down a tube. All three started badly. Devens and Taylor found it. LaLa never did.

I've Always Been on the Bottom Rung

LaLa went out the way she played — funny, warm, and entirely unbothered about admitting she hadn't always known what was happening. She told Julie as much, and she didn't pretend to be happy with Barrett either.

EVICTION

Eviction Night

Rick Devens asked to sit in that chair, and then he refused to stay in it.

Ep 29Big Brother: Unlocked

The Panel Sits With the First Juror

Taylor Hale, Derrick Levasseur and Jerry O'Connell, with Jay Mohr along for the week, pulled apart LaTrice Verrett's 4–2 exit — the vote where the house finally stopped pretending the Icons and the newbies were on the same team, and the first grievance walked into the jury house.

Ep 32Reinvent the Wheel: The Icons Crack, Angela Falls

Ep 35Melody's Miracle

Ep 40Final HOH, Part 1

Six jurors down, one seat to give

LaTrice, Angela, Barrett, Yash, Melody and Dee are all seated in jury — each one scorched by Drew. The houseguest cut at Final 3 becomes the seventh and final vote.

Ep 41Who Wins It All

6–1, and Only LaTrice Dissents

LaTrice voted for Taylor. Angela, Barrett, Yash, Melody, Dee and Drew all voted for Devens, including the man he had just cut.

BIO

The season's oldest houseguest — a bodybuilder and fashion lover who walked in saying she was in the best shape of her life. Big-hearted and chatty, she trades on relationships and first impressions, and she is completely uninterested in playing this quietly.

🎯 PRE-SEASON FANTASY TAKE

A social player who could become the house confidant and quietly outlast the chaos — or get caught in the older-houseguest early-target trap. The fantasy worry is that a relationship game puts few points on the board when the votes get tight.

PRE-SEASON STRATEGY READ

Be the warm, trusted den mother of the house — loyal to her people, with nothing to hide.
