Ellody

**Ellody** is the winner of *Big Brother 20*. She later competed on *Big Brother 44: Champions*.

In *BB20*, she managed to effectively articulate her gameplay against her closest ally Jo, and used Jo's faults, such as being too cutthroat, to benefit her even more. Because of her stronger social game and strategic maneuvers throughout the season, she was awarded the win in a 6-3 vote.

In *Champions*, the twenty-four returning winners are randomly placed into two houses of twelve. House 1 ended up consisting of BB19 winner Areli, BB16 winner Avery, BB: OTT3 winner Aymeric, BB27 winner B, BB14 winner Connie, BB34 winner Daylon, BB20 winner Ellody, BB1 winner Emilio, BB8 winner Kyra, BB21 winner Marion, BB12 winner Nancy, and BB31 winner Reema while House 2 was made up of BB4 winner Alex, BB5 winner Asia, BB25 winner Duncan, BB22 winner Joanna, BB11 winner Julius, BB: OTT winner Kasen, BB2 winner Nina, BB10 winner Rhys, BB17 winner Ronnie, BB3 winner Sutton, BB28 winner Toastee, and BB29 winner Trisha. Afterwards, it is revealed that the houses will compete in a competition for immunity for a certain amount of cycles, and the winners wouldn’t have to attend an eviction ceremony. At the first immunity competition of the season, House 2 ended up winning, securing them immunity for the first cycle of the season. House 1 would meanwhile evict the first former winner of the season. In House 1, early bonds form between gay winners Daylon and Emilio, Areli and Aymeric, Connie and Kyra, Kyra and Marion, and Ellody and Emilio. Avery and Daylon also rekindle their former alliance from BB16 - Fans vs. Favorites 2. In House 2, Duncan and Joanna quickly form a kinship while Julius and Kasen bond over their unexpected similar interests, as well as being Black, LGBTQIA+ men. The original winners that competed in the first All-Stars season also reformed their alliance, with Alex, Asia, and Sutton collectively immediately together. Nina is apprehensive due to the early target it may put on their backs, but she agrees to it as well. Toastee and Trisha also form a friendship, alongside Nina and Rhys, who both find it unexpected. At the first HOH competition within House 1, Kyra ends up winning. Immediately, she and her ally Connie consider targeting their former BB8 and BB14 alums Daylon and Emilio because of the lack of trust within the duos. Daylon and Emilio do indeed not trust Connie and Kyra, and Daylon outright tells Emilio and Avery that he wants to target Connie immediately out of revenge for her orchestrating his initial eviction. Kyra later tells Marion about she and Connie’s plans, and agrees in order to keep eyes off their alliance. Together, Connie, Kyra, and Marion form an alliance and target Daylon and Emilio for eviction. Going into nominations, Connie, Kyra, and Marion expose their plans to the house, and the majority of them are fine with it because it keeps them from being the first winner evicted. However, both nominees are already initially more liked than the trio. At the nomination ceremony, Kyra nominates Daylon and Emilio for eviction, having no preference on who leaves. Both nominees are not surprised, and deduce that Connie and Kyra are aligned with each other. Their respective allies Avery and Ellody then promise to save them with the POV should they win it going into POV competition. In House 2 meanwhile, a new alliance spurred by Duncan consisting of pairs Duncan and Joanna and Julius and Kasen forms in an attempt to oppose the winners who competed in the original All-Stars season. Duncan convinces the other three that the four All-Star winners are a potential block that could be dangerous moving forward. Duncan also tries to rope in pair Toastee and Trisha into the alliance, who consider it. Toastee does respect Duncan, but realizes the threat he may pose. At the POV competition in House 1, Daylon ends up winning. He’s expected to be taking himself off the block, so Kyra begins thinking of possible pawns to nominate to ensure her new target Emilio’s eviction. Avery and Daylon agree that Avery will throw Daylon under the bus to avert anyone from believing that they’re close and prevent Avery’s nomination. She does as planned, and Kyra believes that Avery will target Daylon in the future. Ellody meanwhile remains stuck to Emilio’s side, which Connie notices. Their bond was already evident in the house, so Connie suggests that Ellody go up in Daylon’s place as the pawn. Throughout all of this, Marion and Nancy also form a secret alliance, and agree to take out Emilio for being the biggest threat. Before the POV ceremony, Kyra, Connie, and Marion meet up in the HOH room, and agree to make Ellody the pawn. Marion also reveals that Nancy brought up evicting Emilio no matter the nominee next to him, to the women’s delight. They agree that they like her as well, and they want to bring her into their alliance to make a foursome. They do as planned, and Nancy agrees, fortifying their plans to evict Emilio. Kyra also tells Areli, Avery, Aymeric, B, and Reema her plan to make Ellody the pawn, and they all evict Emilio for being the target. The five agree to the plan yet again in order to save themselves, but they individually agree to potentially save Emilio if possible, as they like and trust him more than Kyra. B also knows that keeping Emilio around would be more beneficial because he’ll target Kyra and vice versa. At the POV ceremony, Daylon takes himself off the block, and Ellody is nominated in his place, to her surprise and horror. She’s distraught that she or her closest friend will be the first evicted from the season, so she has a crying fit with Emilio. Kyra’s new alliance continue to target Emilio going into the eviction, but the rest of the house have conversations about flipping the vote and saving Emilio instead. They all collectively agree that they prefer for Emilio to stay, and all tell him that individually. At the eviction, Ellody is evicted in a 6-3 vote, shocking Connie, Kyra, Marion, and Nancy.
