During the Season 24 premiere of “Big Brother” on July 6, host Julie Chen Moonves welcomed 16 new houseguests to a summer chock-full of physical, mental and social challenges. At the start of the show, Julie promised a “big twist” and she did not disappoint. To recap, once all of the players had made their way to the backyard and took their random places within the “BBFest” they competed in challenges to determine the first Head of Household of the season.
