WARNING! THIS ARTICLE CONTAINS MAJOR SPOILERS ABOUT BIG BROTHER 26!
The Big Brother season 26 week 12 Head of Household (HOH) competition has been played, and its winner is Chelsie Baham. Since the week before the finale is more fast-paced, she's already nominated Makensy Manbeck and Cam Sullivan-Brown for eviction. Chelsie became the Big Brother season 26 week 12 HOH after the live eviction, during which the houseguests made Kimo Apaka the next member of the jury. The final four houseguests are now Chelsie, Makensy, Cam, and Rubina Bernabe.
The Big Brother 26 live feeds have revealed that Chelsie won the week 12 HOH competition. She nominated Makensy and Cam for eviction afterward. Chelsie was rattled to hear that the nominations were taking place the night of the HOH competition, rather than the following day.
However, the Power of Veto is the most important part of the week because its winner is the only one who can vote. If Chelsie wins, then the only person who's not on the chopping block can vote. Chelsie told Cam that he's her final two, and he said that he wants Makensy to leave the house this week if he wins the Power of Veto. In Chelsie's conversation with Rubina, Rubina told her that she didn't want to go on the chopping block again.
Chelsie also told Makensy that if Chelsie won the Power of Veto, she'd use it on her and let her choose who'll go to the final three with them. Makensy told Chelsie to nominate her. Chelsie told her that she wanted Makensy as her final two. Makensy and Rubina later discussed taking each other to the final three and evicting Cam. They want to be an all-women final three, along with Chelsie.

By winning the Big Brother 26 week 12 HOH competition, Chelsie secured her place in the final three. If Cam wins the Power of Veto and evicts Makensy, then Chelsie will most likely win the whole game and take home the $750,000 prize. She and Makensy have been shifting the power back and forth between them for the last few weeks.
Chelsie has promised to take Makensy to the final two with her. However, it would be better for her to sit in the final two chairs with Cam or Rubina, who haven't played as strong of a game as her. However, it's much more likely that Makensy will win the week 12 Power of Veto competition than Cam or Rubina, and she'll also make it to the final three.
Our Take On Big Brother 26 Week 12 Head Of Household Results
Chelsie Or Makensy Should Win Big Brother 26
It's not surprising that Chelsie won the Big Brother 26 week 12 HOH competition. She and Makensy have dominated the game, while Cam and Rubina have only won one competition each. Chelsie has won five competitions, including four HOH and one BB A.I. Arena competitions, while Makensy has won eight competitions, including two HOH, four Power of Veto (including the America's Veto upgrade power), and two BB A.I. Arena competitions. Although Makensy has won more competitions, Chelsie has been the mastermind behind the plans set forth during Makensy's HOH reigns, including Leah Peters' eviction.
As Big Brother 26 heads towards its October 13 finale, Chelsie and Makensy have to decide if being loyal to each other is worth it because they could both easily win against Cam or Rubina. Chelsie has promised both Cam and Makensy that they're her final two, but it would be much more likely for her to win if she chooses Cam. Both Chelsie and Makensy deserve to win Big Brother 26, so it'll be very exciting to see how it all plays out. One thing is certain: the final week of Big Brother 26 will be a wild ride.
