BBB 22: Jade, Arthur and Linn da Quebrada are out of the premiere due to Covid

by

Big Brother Brasil 22 (Globo) started this Monday (17) with the absence of three participants from the Camarote group. Jade Picon, 20, Arthur Aguiar, 32, and Linn da Quebrada, 31, were left out of the program’s premiere after receiving a positive diagnosis for Covid-19 during pre-confinement.

Globo had already announced that three competitors had the disease, but the names were only confirmed now, with videos of the three still in their hotel rooms, from where they reassured fans and family members, saying that they do not have symptoms. They should enter the reality show only on Thursday (20).

When announcing the three cases of Covid among the brothers, the broadcaster said that the BBB 22’s security protocols will be very restrictive and constantly improved. Indefinitely, the audience and the presence of family and friends on elimination days are suspended. As in previous years, participants will have medical care available 24 hours a day.

The broadcaster said there will also be strict sanitization of any product that enters the house, monitoring of all people who have access to the site, as well as production workplaces. The teams are also reduced, they are forced to wear a mask and do recurring tests to detect Covid.

The long-awaited debut of BBB 22 also marks the debut of journalist Tadeu Schmidt, 47, in the presentation of the program. He replaces Tiago Leifert, 41, who presented the reality show between 2017 and 2021 and left Globo last year due to personal problems – in September, he had already announced that he would not renew his contract.

Schmidt says that he had followed the show in previous years and made a point of rewatching a lot before the premiere. “I watched and rewatched a lot. In addition to talking to the show’s team, of course, I chose to do it that way to understand everything better and get more intimate with the reality.”

However, knowledge about the program’s past does not mean that the presenter will follow models already tried. “I put my soul into everything I do and, at BBB, it’s no different,” he says. “I’m learning a lot from the people on the team, who have so much experience on the show, and I’m also having the freedom to create my way of presenting.”

The dynamics of the first day were also different from the last few years. Although the house is still composed of anonymous and famous, in the groups Pipoca and Camarote, respectively, this was the first time that the two entered separately. Pipoca entered during the day and Camarote at the end of the live program.
