Kelley Jorgensen became the third member of the Big Brother 27 jury during the first half of the double eviction on Thursday, September 18 and is reflecting on where her game went wrong – from her rocky relationship with former winner Rachel Reilly to the betrayal she felt from Head of Household Vince Panaro.
Kelley has a self-proclaimed off-beat personality, which simultaneously caused her to make moves off the beaten path. She showed that right from the jump, as, after making a Final Two deal with Vince Panaro, she volunteered for him to nominate her. The way she figured, not only would this obscure their new relationship, but even if she lost the “BB Block Buster,” she would have the votes to stay.
Now in the jury house, Kelley talks with Parade about why she threw Vince under the bus in her exit, her various conflicts with Rachel, and her various “instigating” tactics (including where the dead bugs are currently in the house).
“I was not shocked in the slightest,” she admitted. “I knew that Morgan and Ashley did not want me there, and I figured that Ava and Lauren did. That speech at the end was premeditated, and I’ve had that locked in the chamber since the last time Vince nominated me.”
Throughout her game, Kelley leaned into a strategy built on instigating drama and pushing buttons inside the house. From sparking fights to planting dead bugs, she proudly took on the role of chaos creator.
“The instigating started with the Jimmy and Keanu fight, and that worked so well that I said, ‘I’m adopting that, and that’s going to be my new personality in the house. I will be the drama bringer, and I’m excited to do that,’” Kelley explained. She even revealed where her bug prank victims might still be lurking. “There are five of them. One upstairs in the pitcher plant by the chessboard, one in the plum tree downstairs, in the bathroom, and three bees in the lemon trees by the front doors.”
Kelley also became known for volunteering herself as a nominee—a move that raised eyebrows in the house but reflected her confidence in her competition skills.
“On Vince’s first HoH, I volunteered to throw off our alliance, which very clearly worked out for me. And I immediately regretted it, because the votes almost immediately flipped on me,” she admitted. “But I continued to do so because I was very, very confident in my Block Buster abilities. That very first one, I got it immediately. And I knew I can do this from here on out.”
Another storyline that followed Kelley through the season was her tense dynamic with Rachel. Their relationship included both harsh words and vulnerable moments.
“Rachel and I never saw eye to eye in the game, and I think that’s because we played such similar games,” Kelley said. “And I do look forward to getting to know her outside of the game and when the cameras are off.”
Before leaving, Kelley shared her unfiltered thoughts on each of the remaining houseguests:
-
Ashley: “Ashley is the princess of our season. She is always asleep, and she looks like Aurora from Sleeping Beauty when she is asleep.”
-
Ava: “Ava is so fun and insane. I love that girl so much.”
-
Keanu: “Keanu had become actually a brother to me. And I do appreciate how he protected me throughout the game, and I wish him the best.”
-
Lauren: “Lauren is like a little sister to me, and whatever happens in the game, I hope the best for her also.”
-
Morgan: “Morgan is stunning. There’s no doubt in my mind that she was telling the full truth about being a model. She’s the most beautiful girl this whole season, and I do love her.”
-
Vince: “[Sighs.] Oh, Vince. Vince has a nice mustache!”
From planting bugs to planting drama, Kelley left her mark on Big Brother 27 in ways no one will forget. And with one last premeditated speech, she walked out of the house exactly as she lived in it—unapologetic, unpredictable, and unforgettable.
