Arturo

**Arturo** is the runner-up of *Big Brother 1*. He also competed on *Big Brother 27: Redemption* and *Big Brother 57: Runner-Ups*.

In *BB1*, he lacked social grace to form solid, positive relationships in the house. Because of this, he found himself in many arguments with multiple houseguests and was consistently targeted. Despite this, trio Emilio, Janine and Raj saw the benefit in keeping Arturo around as an easy target and beat at the end. They brought him into their alliance in Week 3 alongside Myra and Winona, and the alliance went on to dominate the season. While perceived as a nuisance by his allies, Arturo proved to be a competent competitor in competitions, winning two HOHs to help aid them in evicting rival alliance members Seth and Robbie, the latter of which was the leader and sole member of the opposing alliance. From Week 11 to the end of the season, Arturo was targeted by everyone in the house for his grating personality, but he survived due to Emilio, Janine and Raj inducting him into the core of the alliance and Winona and Myra being perceived as bigger threats. At the Final Four, Arturo was set to be evicted for being on the outs, but Raj realized Emilio and Janine were closer than he and Emilio were, so he used his sole vote to blindside Janine out of the house. Despite targeting Arturo, Emilio managed to maintain their solid relationship, so when Arturo won the final HOH competition on Day 91, Raj was evicted with Arturo's sole vote. Arturo was lauded by the jury for his poor jury management and abhorrent behavior in the house. Coupled with their lack of respect for his strategic gameplay, he lost the season in an unanimous 9-0 vote, placing as the Runner-Up.

In *Redemption*, the season would be filled with cycles that had changed every week. The first twist of the season was a competition for eternal immunity that Susie ended up winning. She would be immunity until the jury stage. Her fellow BB23 alum and closest ally and Kasen won HOH in Cycle 1, and he had multiple deals made that would secure his safety for the next cycle. Most notably, he formed a close bond with Tracy, and she was brought into his alliance with Susie as well as joining Cameron’s alliance of all of the Black players sans Laney. Kasen was keen on the idea, and brought up including Laney as well. Cameron and the alliance also wanted to target Cameron and Jasmine’s BB20 rival, Scott. They didn’t trust him and knew he’d be targeting the Cameron and Jasmine. Kasen instead preferred for Arturo to go because he had formed an early dislike for him, and Scott threw Arturo under the bus since he knew Cameron and Jasmine would be going for him. Cameron tried to convince Kasen to change his mind going into the nomination ceremony, but Kasen had already made up his mind. He nominated Arturo next to his fellow BB1 alum, Amy, and heavily alluded to the fact that Arturo was his target to the house. At the later POV competition, Cameron won. Again, he tried to convince Kasen to go after Scott. Kasen was still steadfast in his targeting of Arturo though, so Cameron ended up giving up for now. At the subsequent POV ceremony, Cameron discarded his POV. Arturo was unable to secure any votes because Amy was the better campaigner, and used Arturo’s negativity and bitterness against him as well as the fact that he made it much farther than her in the inaugural season. In the end, only Arturo’s ally Tina chose to save him, making him the first evictee in a landslide 16-1 vote.
