Overview
- TV Globo says the ten selections from the five Glass Houses will be revealed Sunday night before Fantástico, with Seleção BBB scheduled for 20:00.
- Informal polls point to leads such as Gabriela over Milena in the Southeast (58.11% to 41.89%) and a near‑tie between Chaiany and Jordana in the Center‑West, but only Gshow votes decide the entrants.
- Early flashpoints included a heated exchange between Milena and Gabriela that required intervention in the Southeast and a Center‑West quarrel followed by Chaiany’s on‑camera apology, with additional disputes reported in the North, South, and even Salvador.
- A cross‑country “orange challenge” ran over four hours; Breno and Milena (Southeast) won 300 estalecas each, a bonus that applies only if they join the cast.
- The season premieres Monday, January 12, hosted by Tadeu Schmidt, featuring a revamped format with Pipoca, Camarote, and returning Veterans and five simultaneous Glass Houses.
