Although there is nothing like a traditional Big Brother season, many times, Celebrity Big Brother installments tend to offer more entertainment value. While Big Brother is approaching season 25, there have only been three CBB seasons over the years. The last installment of the show took place in the winter of 2022. Although the overall format of the celebrity rendition of the show has always been the same as that of a regular BB season, the two versions of the competition series are very different.
The most recent Celebrity Big Brother season took place last winter, during which UFC fighter Miesha Tate took home the win. Despite being much shorter than a regular season, Celebrity Big Brother season 3 was still full of drama. Miesha, along with her best ally in the game, Todrick Hall, got backlash. This happened because of some comments that they each made inside the house, which were aimed at some of their fellow houseguests. The season lasted 29 days, as 11 celebrities gave the competition series a try. Some of the players included Lamar Odom, Todd Bridges, Teddi Mellencamp, and Shanna Moakler.
Although living inside the Big Brother house is challenging for any houseguest, it is even more difficult for a majority of the celebrities that have competed on the show. Ironically, this tends to make the celebrity season much more entertaining to watch. Since they often have luxurious lifestyles, it can be quite difficult for celebrities to follow the long list of Big Brother rules.
Being closed off from the real world can be a real shock for celebrities as well. While fans are used to seeing these players in fancy clothing during their lavish day-to-day lives, this all gets traded in the day they enter the Big Brother house. Viewers ultimately get to see these celebs in a whole new atmosphere that they are not used to.
