“Big Brother” star T'Kor Clottey reveals worst thing about living in Jankie World
The ousted player also names the person playing the best game in the house.
T'Kor Clottey made the first big move of Big Brother season 26 when she and ally Kimo Apaka flipped the house to break up the Pentagon. But T'Kor's last move was walking out of the house after the 23-year-old crochet business owner was voted out 4-1 on Thursday's live eviction episode.
T'Kor went up on the block after Angela Murray won the Veto competition and removed Kimo from the block. That forced Head of Household Leah Peters to put up a replacement nominee, and T'Kor was that replacement. Seeing her as a bigger threat, the house then voted T'Kor out over Rubina Bernabe.
Did the vote surprise T'Kor, and why does she think the others ultimately chose Rubina to stay over her? What does she wish she could go back and change about her game? And what was it like being stuck in a perpetual ice-cream-dance-party-pizza-theme-song loop while living in Jankie World for a week? We asked the second jury member all that and more.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: You only got one vote to stay. Does that surprise you, and which votes were you hoping to get and didn't?
T'KOR CLOTTEY: Getting one vote to stay was not surprising. I gander that it was either Chelsie who voted to keep me, or the house collectively deciding to let Kimo give me a sympathy vote. But the votes that I was hoping to be able to pull in were Chelsea, Cam's, and even Kimo's. And so that was my hope.
Do you think people kept Rubina as an emotional move because she was very emotional about being on the block, or as a strategic move because you were seen as the biggest threat?
I do think that it might have been a mix of both, as the vibe was very much so that people already had their minds made up even before those speeches. And so I think that Rubina has a very unique ability to touch people's heartstrings. But I also am aware that at some point in the game, I started being perceived as a threat. So I do think two things can be true at once.

What is the one thing you wish you could go back and change about your game?
The one thing I wish I could go back and change about my game is honestly just winning that last Veto. Had I won that last Veto — I had two opportunities to — I think the week would have ended very differently. Other than that, I don't have many regrets about how I played my game. I know strategically, being showy about my friendship with Rubina and Kimo was going to kick my butt in the end eventually at some point. But I don't regret those friendships that I was able to foster, and that trust that I was able to build with them through that relationship. And so not a lot of regrets for me in terms of my gameplay.

A lot can change between now and the finale, but who is playing the best game in the house so far, and why?
There are a lot of people, honestly, left that are playing a pretty good game. I think for me, I would say Chelsie is one of the people who are playing a really great game. She's won two HOHs, she's very well insulated socially, has a great ability to adapt. And so that's just one person out of a couple that I think are playing a great game.

Finally, what was the worst part about living in Jankie World for a week?
Well, definitely, for me, it was being on the block, for sure! But I think to Jankie World specifically, it was being outside during the day in the blistering heat with nothing to do. Everybody kind of just spent their time napping and wasting the day away, and we never knew what time it was. And, of course, Jankie loved to interrupt our naps with sing and dance time. And also, I couldn't eat anything else but pizza! So, you know, a lot.
