As for the reality show, Julie Chen Moonves has stepped out to host Big Brother. To tease the audience about the mystery guest, Mooves also claimed that the person is 'very polarizing.' The statement has confused the internet, which has been guessing it to be Rachel Reilly.
Is Rachel Reilly the mystery houseguest in Big Brother?
While the fans of the show went on to debate over the mystery houseguest on social media, they believed that Rachel Reilly was the one. However, Moonves announced during the premiere episode that the latter was the 16th contestant and would play in the open.
The host also added that the 17th participant was already in the house and responsible for the power outage and other incidents that took place during the episode.
The contestants were then presented with a challenge. They were asked to figure out who the mystery player was. If they were able to find out, the contestant would leave the game immediately. If not, the person stays in the game, keeping his/her identity under wraps.
While the guessing game continues, only time will tell who is wearing the mask of the 17th houseguest.
Big Brother is available to stream on CBS.

Big Brother 2025 full contestant list: Date, time, episode schedule, and where to watch the 27th season of the reality series
Big Brother is back with its 27th season, offering a rebranded take on the iconic reality series, complete with a new theme, fresh houseguests, and an unexpected twist. This year, BB is 'A Summer of Mystery.' CBS has dropped the lineup: 16 contestants, from an aura reader to an attorney, insurance agent, podcaster, and more. The guests are already inside the house, along with a secret 17th house guest who snuck in ahead of the premiere. Julie Chen Moonves returns as host, and here's everything you need to know. The season kicked off with a 90-minute premiere on Thursday, July 10 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS. (5:30 AM IST, Friday). 1-hour episodes will air on Sundays and Thursdays. Wednesdays will feature 90-minute episodes all season. If you miss any episode, you can stream it later on Paramount+ at 2 a.m. CT. Meanwhile, live feeds begin on July 13 at 11:30 p.m. CT (10:00 am IST) on Paramount+, giving fans 24/7 access to the house (minus key competitions and private matters). This year, contestants will face a masked visitor, a secret accomplice, and a mystery house guest whose identity will stay hidden, for now. Meanwhile, the whole house had been turned into Hotel Mystère. One can expect creepy reception desk, bunk beds (back for the first time since season 1), and a wine bar with zero wine. There's also something called the 'venom bar,' but according to the host, contestants will bring their venom themselves.
