Career Background

Jorgensen works remotely as a web designer. She steps into Big Brother 27 as the show’s first-ever houseguest from the Mount Rushmore State. She describes herself as having “farm kid grit”, and brings a blend of small-town grit and worldly experience to the Big Brother house. Additionally, she is described as an adventrious girl since she has traveled 42 countries and all 50 U.S. states, solo. These solo travels forced Kelley out of her comfort zone and taught her how to navigate unfamiliar situations with confidence. She aims to fly under the radar, make genuine connections, and then methodically work her way to the end. 

Notably, Jorgensen has received a nomination every week so far, from week 1 to 4. During week 2 Head of Household competition, Jorgensen won the power to win a second Veto, as winner Jimmy Heagerty was right next to her when she discovered her power. Because of this, Jimmy decided to nominate Kelley for eviction in order to flush out the power. However, the nominations were still up in the air because Kelley’s power was still in play.

Jorgensen, however, saved herself from the chopping block by activating her power, and this made her win the solo Power of Veto competition acquiring a second Veto for the week. Her win has now established her as a competition beast who’s saved herself twice when her back was against the wall. Even after being a frequent target, Jorgensen has still survived thanks to her competition wins and strategic social play.

Her strategy of volunteering to go on the block, has, however, drawn a lot of criticism from fans and former players, but host Julie Chen Moonves calls her “the dark horse” of the season. Additionally, her strategy is also faced with different weaknesses which could see her miss opportunities to advance her position in the house. One potential weakness for Kelley is her lack of deep Big Brother experience as a viewer. This can make her not recognize the warning signs, if someone tries a classic strategy on her. Additionally, she might have trouble grabbing control or convincing others of a plan if she stays in the background too much.

Kelley Jorgensen’s Net Worth
