Pedro Pérez

**Pedro Pérez** was a houseguest on *Big Brother 5 (US)*.

Pedro was a major figure in the early days of *Big Brother 5*. He found himself on the Gen Z team but wasn't able to connect with his teammates. He particularly found himself disagreeing with Corbin Fowler and Zara Fae's ideas and eventually saw them as a threat to him and his allies outside of the team, mainly Annetta Landrum. His team won the immunity challenge in the second week and he forced a wheel spin as he would not agree with his teammates on nominating Annetta. Unfortunately for him, Corbin was given the power to pick the nominee through the wheel and selected Annetta. Annetta went on to win that week's POV and Corbin nominated Pedro's showmance Ramon Sanchez in her place to spite him. This was it for Pedro and he was ready to gun for Corbin and Zara. He won the following HOH and became the first person to nominate his own teammates by putting Corbin and Zara on the block. Pedro successfully evicted Corbin from the game and was able to win immunity for the rest of the pre-jury phase. In Week 6, the target on his back had become relatively large and Stacey Lennox took a shot at him, successfully evicting him in 11th place.
