The finale of Big Brother season 26 was broadcast on Sunday, October 13, 2024, showcasing the exhilarating conclusion of the competition. The final three contestants — Chelsie, Cam, and Makensy — battled it out in a variety of challenges to choose the last two players. With a standout performance, Makensy clinched victory in two of the three Head of Household (HoH) competitions, allowing her to select the contestant she wished to take to the jury.
Ultimately, Makensy chose Chelsie to accompany her to the final showdown. The jury then cast their votes to determine the winner of season 26. With the majority support, Chelsie emerged victorious, securing the grand prize of $750,000, while Makensy took home $75,000 as the runner-up.
Viewers of the CBS reality show voiced their opinions regarding Makensy’s decision to take Chelsie to the jury and the ultimate outcome:
“I’ve never seen a player willingly concede the win like that. MJ sacrificed the prize for loyalty in a game built on lies and betrayal.”
“Honestly, she took control in the second half of the game—what a mastermind! Poor MJ thought she was in the loop! Chelsie deserves this win, all thanks to her puppet MJ! An ordinary person wouldn’t have chosen her for the final two!”a fan tweeted.
“Wait until MJ reviews the playbacks & realizes how easily she was played by this ‘I’m so holy’ fake person, who by being ‘loyal’ ended up handing over the money to a professional deceiver. I can’t wait for MJ to learn that Chelsie would have picked Cam over her!”a tweet mentioned.
The audience expressed their admiration for Chelsie’s win in season 26:
“Chelsie has become the first-ever woman to win unanimously, the second HoH to win the season, and the fourth houseguest to enter and take the crown. She’s also tied the record for the most HoHs within a single season! A historical champion!”noted a fan.
“This new era of Big Brother is simply inspiring… huge congrats to Chelsie for an incredible game & for joining the ranks of legends,”one fan commented.
“Chelsie truly earned this win; she deserves to be recognized as the champion of BB26. Congratulations!”another tweet read.
“Hats off to CHELSIE! However, Makensy made one of the most questionable moves in Big Brother history, practically gifting her the $750,000,”wrote a viewer.
“SHOUTOUT TO CHELSIE BAHAM ON WINNING BIG BROTHER 26!!! What an EPIC finish—yet another remarkable winner to the roster,”commented another fan.

During the Big Brother season 26 finale on October 13, 2024, finalists Chelsie and Makensy articulated their cases to the jury before the final decision. Chelsie expressed her intention from the start to avoid relying solely on competition wins for her survival.
To secure her triumph, Chelsie employed three key strategies, stating:
“I approached this with strategy, social engagement, and skill. I made calculated choices, knowing when to assert myself and when to hold back,”she explained.
The contestant emphasized her social strategy throughout season 26, ensuring a larger target overshadowed her own ambitions. She believed it was essential for others to perceive someone as a greater threat, mentioning how she engaged in “one-on-one discussions with all players.”
Reflecting on her wins during the season, Chelsie shared her achievements, stating she had secured “the most”Head of Household victories, nominated 12 players, and had only been on the block once since Day 38.
“I played a competitive game, winning when it mattered, not when I was forced to,”Chelsie stated.
As Chelsie discussed the final HoH challenge against Makensy, she expressed confidence that she would secure her place in the final two regardless of the outcome.
Audience reactions to Chelsie’s victory were mixed. While many believed she rightfully claimed the title, others commented that Makensy’s decision cost her the game.
