When Rachel Reilly, a fan favorite, was eliminated in a move that caught both viewers and houseguests off guard, Big Brother 27 produced its most contentious moment to date. Her abrupt departure left many wondering about the direction of the program and whether a famous player's career had been cut short by a mishandled turn of events.

In a break from convention, Rachel was eliminated from the game in a surprise "White Locust" safety-chain challenge rather than a live eviction. Without the customary exit interview or farewell words, viewers didn't learn about her removal until days later. The twist occurred during a live-feed blackout. Outrage was sparked by this unconventional format, which went against fundamental standards of gameplay and transparency by abruptly excluding an experienced competitor.

The reaction was intense and quick. Responses varied from incredulity and accusations of treachery to rage over the alleged violation of justice. Some called the move a deadly mistake for the legitimacy of the season.

An admirer of Big Brother 27 posted,

"I’m boycotting #BB27 although I am A #BigBrother super fan , I am not ok with the fact that they eliminated Rachel and I just don’t even wanna see what happens next. Like this twist ruined the season for me"

Another fan shared on X,

"Rachel losing this way is just ridiculous! ALL of these people (minus Will) are useless! Vince is the worst of them! #NoLoyalty #bb27 #BigBrother #BigBrother27 #BigBrotherBuzz"
"Now I lay me down to sleep over Rachel's elimination, I will weep production robbed her of a vote. She's loved by so many, I hope she knows 💙 #BigBrother #BB27 #Rache," a tweet read.

More fans of Big Brother 27 shared their opinion on Rachel's elimination.

A netizen expressed,

"Omg I'm crying for Rachel #bb27 #BigBrother"
"Rachel going home before Lauren and Vince. This season is shit. #bb27 #BigBrother," another X user posted.

Rachel Reilly’s shocking exit under the White Locust twist on Big Brother 27

Both fans and houseguests were taken aback by Rachel's exit from Big Brother 27, mostly because it deviated from the show's customary elimination procedure. The White Locust twist, a safety-chain challenge in which houseguests chose one another to progress until only one was left vulnerable, was used to remove Rachel rather than a live vote.

Rachel became the unanticipated victim of the twist when friendships broke down and tactics changed, leaving her alone at a crucial time. In order to increase its impact and leave the season's plot in doubt, the elimination happened off-feeds, depriving viewers of the conclusion of an interview and parting words.
