Angela, a 50-year-old real estate agent originally from Long Beach, California, but currently living in Syracuse, Utah, became the first Head of Household (HOH) of the season. She's been a strong presence in the house, with a big personality. Angela's meltdown in the house was even highlighted in the Big Brother 26 previews. However, Angela's dramatic presence might be due to the fact that she's used to being on TV.

Before her Big Brother 26 debut, Angela Murray appeared on several other TV shows.

Big Brother 20 houseguest Angela "Rockstar" Landry commented, "Casting must LOVE her [three laughing emojis]." Many fans also expressed their belief that Angela is a producer plant.

Although it seems that Angela is a Big Brother 26 producer plant, the question becomes if it matters. So far, she's been the ideal houseguest. Angela won the first HOH, proving that not only is she good at competitions, but she wants to win and didn't throw it. She has also had a roller coaster of a social game, which has created the drama that people love to watch. Angela's casting is really no different from the producers adding Survivor legend Cirie Fields to the Big Brother 25 cast.

Big Brother isn't like the Bachelor franchise, in which contestants are expected to be on the shows "for the right reasons." As long as the houseguests understand the game, and try their hardest to play it, that's all that matters to fans, and Angela is a Big Brother superfan. If anything, her previous TV appearances make her a more entertaining houseguest because she understands what it means to create TV gold. Turner is right that Angela might be the best CBS plant ever. She's bringing new meaning to Big Brother's motto, "expect the unexpected."

Big Brother 26 airs Sundays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays at 9 p.m. EDT on CBS.
