It's Wednesday, which means a new 90-minute 'Big Brother' Season 28 episode featuring the Power of Veto competition will air tonight, Aug. 12.
Week 5 started with a bang as LaTrice Verrett, also known as Lala, won the extremely challenging, yet iconic wall competition and became this week's HOH. On Sunday's episode, we saw that Lala nominated Haley Thogmartin (last week's HOH), Barrett Pfeiffer
and Chuk Anyanwu for a possible eviction.Tonight's Power of Veto competition will be the first chance the three get to take themselves off the block and secure safety for the week. While the Power of Veto competition was pre-filmed, those who aren't tuned into the live feeds will get to watch it all play out tonight.
Will the winner of tonight's veto keep
the nominations the same, or use their power to save one of the nominees- and if one is saved, who will become Lala's replacement nominee?
