Rick Devens on How ‘Survivor’ Prepped Him to Win ‘Big Brother,’ Canceling on James Gunn’s ‘Superman 2’ Cameo and If He’d do ‘Traitors’: “I’m Open”
After becoming the first ‘Survivor’ player to win ‘Big Brother’ on Thursday night, Devens chats with THR about evicting Drew Campbell before the final two, houseguests claiming the icons had “privileges and advantages” this season and why he thought he’d see more reality TV game players on season 28.
Rick Devens has become the first "Survivor" player to win "Big Brother", taking the crown after the season 28 finale. He defeated fellow finalist Taylor Brown with a 6-1 vote. Devens previously competed in two seasons of "Survivor", including Season 50 earlier this year.
Devens expressed his surprise and honor at winning "Big Brother", stating that he considers himself better at the game than "Survivor". According to TheWrap, he joked about having an "identity crisis" after identifying as a "Survivor" player for a long time. Devens also mentioned that he entered the game as a big target, alongside other reality TV icons.
The win comes after Devens made strategic moves in the game, including evicting his early ally Drew Campbell before the final two. TheWrap reported that Devens felt a dynamic similar to his experience on "Edge of Extinction", where four former players entered the game together.
