After week 3 on Big Brother season 27, Adrian Rocha’s time in the house came to an end. Following his eviction, he reflected on what led to his early exit during an exclusive interview with Collider on August 5, 2025.“I like to call it a series of unfortunate events,” he said.He explained how a combination of strategic doubt, cautious Head of Household decisions, and timing placed him in a vulnerable position. Despite playing what he considered an honest game, Adrian Rocha shared that perception in the house shifted quickly, setting the stage for his elimination.Adrian Rocha breaks down his early Big Brother 27 evictionEarly gameplay and rising doubts View this post on Instagram Instagram PostFrom the beginning, Adrian Rocha noticed how perception shaped his position in the Big Brother house. While referring to the initial weeks of the game, he shared in his interview with Collider:“People will use any reason to put you up on the block to create a target. Especially early on."He pointed out that fellow Houseguest Kelley Jorgensen planted early seeds of doubt in Week 1, which made it easier for others to question his motives. Adrian emphasized that although he tried to play transparently, it didn’t translate into long-term trust.“I feel like a lot of the Houseguests wanted me to stay and wanted to work with me, simply because I played an honest game,” he said.He ended up being one of only five contestants nominated in the first three weeks, which increased his visibility as a potential threat.Replacement nominee and eviction circumstances View this post on Instagram Instagram PostAdrian’s path to eviction became clearer when Lauren Domingue, that week’s HOH, selected him as the replacement nominee after Keanu Soto was removed. He said Lauren considered nominating Ashley Hollis but ultimately chose him, citing her hesitation to stir confrontation.Adrian explained that Lauren likely believed he would be less upset by the nomination, although he had made several promises to her. In the end, he believed "fear got to her" before he could persuade her to keep him off the block.He also noted a broader pattern of risk-averse gameplay from the HOHs, referring to Lauren and Jimmy Heagerty’s nomination choices that mirrored the Big Brother house consensus. He described them as being hesitant to act fearlessly, calling them "a bunch of chickens" for not making a decisive move.When Adrian sat next to Cliffton “Will” Williams on eviction night, he sensed the outcome. He explained:“The only person I would have lost the vote to was Will... Sitting next to Will, the easier option was to get me out.”Targets and post-game reflections View this post on Instagram Instagram PostHad he remained in the game, Adrian said he was prepared to change his approach. His primary target would have been Rachel Reilly, whom he respected personally but viewed as a strong competitor. He explained that Rachel knew exactly "what it took to beat this game." He also shared his plan to rely on emotional influence.“I felt I could work more of an emotional pull and get people to play with their emotions rather than logic.”Before ending the interview, Adrian addressed a lighter part of his gameplay: the loaf of bread he often carried around the Big Brother house. He stated:“This loaf of bread, I saw it on day one, and it looked so delicious... With only the pool table and chess, it was either play with bread or talk to people.”Fans can stream Big Brother season 27 on Paramount+.
