Season chronology

Big Brother Brasil 21 is the twenty-first season of Big Brother Brasil, which premiered on Rede Globo on January 25, 2021. The show is produced by Endemol Shine and presented by Tiago Leifert.

The new season was confirmed by Leifert and the show director Boninho on April 27, 2020, the day of the live finale of Big Brother Brasil 20.

The grand prize is R$1.5 million with tax allowances, plus a R$150,000 prize offered to the runner-up and a R$50,000 prize offered to the third placer.

As with the previous season, the season features 20 housemates divided into two groups: "Celebrities", composed of actors, singers, professional athletes and social media personalities, and "Civilians", composed of everyday Brazilians.

The game

#FeedBBB

As introduced in the previous season, each housemate will be able to use a cellphone to capture moments in the house during a time determined by production. The cell phone will only allow them to post photos and videos to #FeedBBB and see what other housemates are saying about each other. It will not allow contact with the outside world.

This season, #FeedBBB will also introduce the "Arrow", a Tinder-like app which will be used by the housemates to explicit their love interests in the house. Also, the "HoH Podcast" will be recorded weekly and published in the GShow website. The housemates will be able to see when it is being recorded, but can't hear the content.

Nomination Superpower

Starting on the day the cast list was unveiled, the public voted to grant three civilians and three celebrities immunity from the first eviction. The six selected housemates would live in a House Next Door and join the Main House on Day 2. Then, they would select as a group one housemate to be automatically nominated for eviction.

Results

No.	Celebrity	Civilian
1	Fiuk 15.57% to save	Lumena 18.42% to save
2	Viih 12.61% to save	Juliette 13.96% to save
3	Projota 11.98% to save	Arthur 13.42% to save

Super HoH

Along with its regular powers, the HoH will also be tasked with splitting their housemates into Haves and Have-Nots as well as choosing what and how much each group will be eating.

Power of Veto

In some weeks, the nominated housemates (excluding the HoH's nominee) compete against each other for one last chance to save themselves from eviction. The housemates nominated by the HoH are not eligible to compete and are guaranteed to face Brazil's vote.

Power of No

At the beginning of each week, the previous Head of Household may or may not be given the opportunity to disqualify some housemates from competing in the upcoming HoH competition.

Big Phone

Once in a while, the Big Phone rings, unleashing good or bad consequences on the nomination process for those who decide to answer it.

The Counterattack

The counterattack is a surprise power given to either the HoH's nominee and/or the House's nominee, in which they have the opportunity to automatically nominate an additional housemate for eviction. While viewers are informed when the power will be featured in advance (on Thursdays before the Head of Household competition even takes place), the housemates are only informed about the twist on the spot, during Sunday's live nominations.

Notes

• ^Note 1 :     As part of the Nomination Superpower twist, Arthur, Fiuk, Juliette, Lumena, Projota and Viih received immunity from the first nominations through the public vote on Day 1. However, they also had to decide as a group one housemate to be nominated on Day 7. They nominated Rodolffo.
• ^Note 2 :   On Day 1, 14 housemates that are not part of the Superpower group competed in a pairs endurance competition. Lucas & Nego Di won and participated in a draw, which resulted in Nego Di winning a reward of a Playstation 5 and Lucas winning a immunity for the first nomination.
• ^Note 3 :   On Day 6, João Luiz answered the Big Phone and was told to immediately nominate 3 housemates for eviction; he chose Arcrebiano, Rodolffo, and Sarah. A few minutes later, Arcrebiano answered the second Big Phone call, and was told to save one of João Luiz's three choices; he saved himself. Not long after, the Big Phone rang once again, and Arcrebiano again answered, being told to save one of the two remaining nominees, Rodolffo or Sarah. He saved Rodolffo, leaving Sarah as a nominee for the first eviction.
• ^Note 4 :     On Day 12, Arcrebiano answered the Big Phone and was tasked with potentially giving immunity to one housemate and endangering another for eviction. He saved Juliette and nominated Thais. On Day 14, Gilberto answered the Big Phone and was given the same task; he saved Sarah and nominated Karol. Later that day, Thaís answered the third call of the Big Phone, and was tasked to pick one of the two saved housemates to nominate for eviction, and pick one of the two nominees to save. She saved herself and nominated Juliette.
