Cody Calafiore’s Big Brother journey explored ahead of his appearance on The Traitors

The American reality television star is amongst the A-listers set to compete in The Traitors. The reality star-turned-actor/model is 32 years old and competed in two separate seasons of Big Brother.

In season 16, he was a part of the Bomb Squad. He was initially seen as a weak competitor, but won 3 HoHs (head of household) and 3 PoVs (power of veto), changing people’s perception of him. He saw himself in the final with his Derrick Levasseur but lost to a final jury vote of 7 to 2.

In BB season 22, he won the first HoH, followed by forming a final 2 alliance called the Commission with Memphis Garret. The alliance further expanded and was known as The Committee, which dominated most of the season.

The Traitors contestant formed separate alliances throughout the season, including multiple final two deals with Enzo and Nicole. Memphis, Enzo, and Cody had another alliance called The Wise Guys, which was the final three deal. Cody helped evict many of his friends to get to the top and later won a total of four HoHs and PoVs.

His strategy ensured his place in the final without ever being nominated. At the end, the final Jury vote was 9 to 0 in his favor, making him the winner of Big Brother season 22.
