Jimmy Heagerty was the fourth contestant evicted from Big Brother Season 27 during the Week 4 eviction on August 7, 2025. The CBS reality show follows contestants living together under close watch while competing in challenges, forming friendships, and voting each other out. This week saw a major shake-up as Mickey Lee used a special ability to remove Rylie Jeffries from his Head of Household position and take control of the nominations.

The power shift led to a hectic week filled with strategic maneuvering and last-minute voting adjustments. Mickey initially nominated Keanu Soto, Kelley Jorgensen, and Rylie for eviction, but Keanu won his third straight Power of Veto challenge. After Keanu removed himself from the block, Mickey nominated Jimmy as a replacement. The three nominees then competed in the BB Blockbuster safety competition, where Rylie earned immunity from eviction. This left Jimmy and Kelley up for voting, resulting in a dramatic eviction ceremony.

Ashley Hollis hesitated during the live vote, considering changing her mind mid-ceremony and increasing the tension. Host Julie Chen Moonves told viewers that her initial decision was already final. The eviction ended 9-2, sending Jimmy home and making Season 27's twist-filled game unpredictable.

How did Jimmy’s elimination play out on Big Brother 27?

Mickey Lee's successful dethroning of Rylie marked a major turning point in Week 4 of Big Brother's dynamics. Rylie mistakenly believed Ashley had used the power against him, adding more tension in the house.

Mickey immediately targeted Keanu for the third straight week, showing consistent strategic focus. He placed Keanu alongside Kelley and Rylie on the nomination block, forcing tough choices among alliance members.

Keanu's third consecutive Power of Veto win showcased his competitive skill while hindering Mickey's plans. The streak of veto victories made Keanu a strong contender who can defend himself when necessary. Mickey's replacement, Jimmy, changed the house dynamics entirely. This move prompted houseguests to reevaluate their voting approaches and alliance loyalties.

The BB Blockbuster competition gave the three nominees one last chance to avoid elimination. Kelley, Rylie, and Jimmy competed, knowing only two would face the vote.

Rylie's victory secured his safety despite being initially nominated by the new HOH on Big Brother. His win reduced the elimination candidates to Jimmy and Kelley, simplifying the decision for voters.

The competition outcome changed voting calculations for several houseguests. Some had prepared strategies assuming Rylie might go home, requiring quick adjustments in their approach.

Ashley's hesitancy led to the evening's most memorable moment when she tried to change her vote mid-ceremony. Rachel convinced her to vote against Kelley, but Will's inconsistent facts created confusion. Her attempt to return to the Diary Room showed the pressure houseguests face during live voting. Julie's reminder that votes are final once cast reinforced the show's strict rules.

The final 9-2 vote favored Jimmy's eviction over Kelley's. Only Rachel and Ashley voted to keep Kelley, indicating Jimmy lacked enough support to stay.

What are the implications of this eviction?

Jimmy's departure from Big Brother removes another potential alliance member and shifts power dynamics among the remaining contestants. His elimination follows Amy Bingham, Zae Frederich, and Adrian Rocha as Season 27's early casualties.

Keanu's continued presence despite being repeatedly nominated proves his value in competitions. His ability to save himself multiple times makes him both a valuable asset and a threat to other players.

The week's events have demonstrated how quickly fortunes can shift in the Big Brother house, with power swaps dramatically altering expected outcomes.


Big Brother Season 27 airs Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays on CBS, with streaming available on Paramount+.
