Big Brother 25’s Felicia Cannon is now in the Final 5. If she makes it to the end with the right person sitting next to her, she can win.
Big Brother season 25 houseguest Felicia Cannon has made it all the way to the Final 5, and she could win the $750,000 grand prize if she goes to the finale with Bowie Jane. Known for her hilarious personality. A 63-year-old real estate agent originally from Tacoma, Washington, who’s now living in Kennesaw, Georgia, Felicia made history as the oldest female player in Big Brother history. Although she hasn’t won many competitions during Big Brother 25, she’s proven herself to have a strategic game, as she’s been nominated for eviction seven times and is still in the house.
In a Reddit thread titled “Can Felicia Win?,” Redditor DowntownFisherman762 asked, “What do you think, can she win? It would [be] awesome to see an older player win BB? or if not the whole game maybe AFP?” Many of the responses predicted that, if Felicia sits in the Final 2 chairs with Bowie Jane, she will win the game. Kirlia wrote, “If she manages to convince Bowie to take her, I think she’d win.” TheLegacies21 referenced Felicia’s favorite Bible verse, saying, “If Felicia gets herself to f2 by taking out Jag and Matt, [by] some mustard seed miracle, she 100% beats Bowie.”
Felicia Cannon’s Big Brother 25 Gameplay So Far
Felicia has only won one competition this season, but it was a crucial one. During week 3, Felicia won Head of Household (HOH), and blindsided and backdoored her Professors alliance member Hisam Goueli. Hisam was a competition beast who’d been dominating the game, and Felicia took a big risk and ultimately had him evicted. Since then, Felicia has been nominated a whopping seven times. Although she was a pawn in some of those evictions, she was also sometimes the house target. She managed to survive those evictions as the house flipped their votes. Although Felicia’s the oldest houseguest, she holds her own in the physical competitions, which has been very impressive.
Even though Bowie has won two HOH competitions, her gameplay hasn’t been strong throughout Big Brother 25. She was mostly under-the-radar for at least the first half of the game. She’s been accused of being a floater or a coaster, and even her fellow houseguests, including Felicia, have commented that she hasn’t made much of an impact on the game. Although competition beast Cameron Hardin was evicted during Bowie’s first HOH, and master strategist America Lopez left the house during her second in the double eviction, Bowie wasn’t really the driving force behind that. Rather, her alliance members Jag Bains and Matt Klotz helped her to make those big moves.
Big Brother isn’t simply about winning competitions, as Felicia has proven all season. She’s played an interesting game of defense, rather than offense, due to her seven nominations. Although her social game is sometimes lacking because she has trouble keeping secrets, Felicia did make it to the Final 5. If Jag gets his way, she’ll be in the Final 4 with him, Matt, and Bowie, instead of with Cirie Fields. If Felicia survives this week, she should aim to go to the finale with Bowie. Sitting next to Bowie in the Final 2 will almost certainly guarantee that Felicia goes home with the $750,000 grand prize, or at least America’s Favorite Player.
Big Brother season 25 airs Sundays at 10 p.m. EDT, Tuesdays at 8 p.m. EDT, and Thursdays at 9 p.m. EDT on CBS.
