Julie Chen Moonves standing on the set of Big Brother, holding a cue card.

The Big Picture Big Brother 26 host Julie Chen Moonves is under fire for lying about her involvement in the current season of the reality show. Moonves has hosted Big Brother ever since the show’s debut back in July 2000. However, before Big Brother 26 premiered on July 18, 2024, Moonves claimed that she was going to be a much bigger part of the show than ever before.

Over the years, Moonves has become the face of the iconic Big Brother franchise. Not only does she do a great job at setting the tone of each episode, but she’s also the one person that the contestants get to directly engage with during their time in the house. Considering that she is such an important part of the show, the fans are a little disappointed about her role not being utilized to its full potential.

And while the audience did not get to see it, Moonves's role on the show actually did extend beyond her regular hosting duties. She helped conceptualize the AI theme that Big Brother 26 is centered around. In the same interview with Entertainment Tonight, Moonves revealed that she is going to be sharing her duties on the show with the BB AI, since it’s technically supposed to be her robotic alter-ego.

“The AI Instigator Power, when used, allows, for one week, the user to create virtual avatars of other current houseguests, instruct what they’ll say and to whom."
