Big Brother 8

**Big Brother 8** is the 8th season of Big Brother and the 9th season overall. Big Brother is back after our eventful celebrity season with brand new houseguests and brand new twists and turns.

## Twists

* **The Shark:** This twist is similar to BOTB, however, the shark will remain a secret and it will be chosen by the audience! The HOH will nominate 2 houseguests, the shark will nominate 2 houseguests, and then their nominees will compete in a safety competition. Whatever duo of nominees wins will become safe for that week. If the HOH's nominees win the HOH will be dethroned and The Shark's nominees will stay intact, but The Shark will remain secret.
	+ Each houseguest can only become the shark once, therefore once their week of being the shark is over, they can no longer be voted as the shark again
	+ Since the shark remains a secret every week, the shark is still eligible for nomination
	+ This lasted from weeks 1-5
* **The Black Out Room:** This room is similar to the Gray Room from Big Brother 6 in which the nominees will be sleeping in this room
	+ Meaning there will be no Have-Nots again this season.

## Trivia

* This is the first season in which a female houseguest did not win an HOH competition during the pre-jury phase of the game
	+ The first female HOH was not crowned until week 7
	+ Even though 4 female houseguests did win The Shark ability, they did not win the HOH as they were picked by the audience
	+ However, weeks 1-4, all the Sharks were female
