Big Brother 26 houseguests bid T'Kor farewell during Thursday's eviction on September 19, 2024, by a 4-1 vote, thus saving Rubina in the house. Big Brother premiered on July 17 and 18 and is hosted by the veteran host Julie Chen Moonves. The show welcomed 16 houseguests, and as of now, the show has reached week 10.

Week 9 evictee, T'Kor was placed on the block by the HoH, Leah as the replacement nominee for Kimo, who was replaced by Angela as she won the veto power.

This was the first time for the 23-year-old designer, that she was on the block in Big Brother and joined Quinn in the jury house. The houseguests considered her social game a threat and voted her out instead of Rubina.

In an interview with US Weekly on September 20, 2024, she opened up about her experience on the show, and what she felt after being nominated. She said:

"When I was nominated, honestly, the thing that went through my mind was the mix of emotions that I felt for honestly being happy for Kimo … but then also the tragedy of having to sit next to Rubina."

The week 9 evictee of Big Brother, T'Kor unwrapped her opinion on her nomination

T'Kor Clottey got evicted in week 9 of the show, on Thursday, and was placed on the block as the replacement of Kimo, who was one of her alliances in the house. T'Kor, Kimo, and Rubina were a strong trio, and the houseguests wanted to break the trio as soon as possible. When Leah became the HoH, her first move was to put Kimo and Rubina on the block, so that the trio would get shattered.

T'Kor opened up in the interview with US Weekly about her distance from Quinn and Leah, as they both were close to each other, and Quinn often passed important information, which helped Leah in the game. She explained why she drifted from Quinn in the show. She said:

" There was [also] the dichotomy of seeing his relationship with Leah and [then having] an HoH [reign] where I got to hear [Leah’s] thoughts more [and] hear that Quinn was someone that she saw as a target. And even after sharing that information with him, [I saw] him not necessarily taking it to heed and still passing on information and telling [Leah] things that gave her a lot of information in this game.”

Quinn got evicted in the week 8 elimination round and became the first contestant to join the jury house.


Big Brother Season 26 airs every Sunday, Wednesday, and Friday on CBS.
