Tyler Crispen (Season 20)

Tyler Crispen (Season 20)

Big Brother 20's personable lifeguard, Tyler, took home the coveted America's Favorite Houseguest title—an extra $25,000 on top of his $50,000 prize as runner-up and the trip to Hawaii that he won—after making it all the way to the Final 2!

Tyler's stint in the BB house yielded him multiple HOH and POV wins, but perhaps the most significant indication of his journey towards AFH, he was awarded the second BB Power App of the season by America!
Victor Arroyo (Season 18)

Victor Arroyo (Season 18)

It was no big surprise when Victor, aka the "Comeback Kid," beat out his 15 fellow competitors to win the Season 18 title of America's Favorite Houseguest.

This athletic HG proved he could fight his way back into the house not just once, but twice by winning Battle Back and then, just weeks later, dominating his fellow jury members—including fellow competition beast Paulie Calafiore—for a spot back in the house. Again.

Now, that's a well-deserved $25K.
James Huling (Season 17)

James Huling (Season 17)

South Carolina staff recruiter James, from BB17 (and later BB18), may've left the competition in seventh place, but his memorable time in the house as "Captain Camo" earned him the title of America's Favorite Houseguest, along with $25K in cold-hard cash.

His playful pranking in the house had HGs and fans laughing out loud all season long. Looks like being a Southern gentleman does pay off.
Donny Thompson (Season 16)

Donny Thompson (Season 16)

As a Houseguest from BB16, Donny was Team America's second member and quickly wooed fans with his unwavering sincerity and lovable accent. Even though he was evicted in Week 9 after the other HGs realized he was a fierce competitor, he still walked away as the season's America's Favorite Houseguest, making him the oldest player to ever snag the much sought-after award. 
Elissa Slater (Season 15)

Elissa Slater (Season 15)

Elissa, a Houseguest from BB15, was voted MVP for the first three weeks of her season. Sadly, she was unanimously sent packing during Week 10's Double Eviction, but her wounds healed a little quicker during the finale when she was awarded $25,000 as the fan favorite.
 
Frank Eudy (Season 14)

Frank Eudy (Season 14)

As a Houseguest on BB14 (and later BB18), Frank was a member of Team Boogie and placed seventh in his season after he was evicted in the first round of the second Double Eviction. He later went on to win America's Favorite Houseguest, which rewarded him with some serious cash to take home to Florida.
Britney Haynes (Seasons 12 and 14)

Britney Haynes (Seasons 12 and 14)

Britney, who was a Houseguest on BB12 and BB14didn't walk away with the grand prize during her first season. However, she did snag the America's Favorite Houseguest title instead in BB12. Her win may have had something to do with her witty sense of humor and hilarious Diary Room moments.
Jeff Schroeder (Seasons 11 and 13)

Jeff Schroeder (Seasons 11 and 13)

As a Houseguest on BB11 and BB13, Jeff never made it to the Final 3 during his seasons, but he did walk away with the title of America's Favorite Houseguest for both seasons, which says a lot! Since his time in the house, Jeff's remained a fan favorite.
Keesha Smith (Season 10)

Keesha Smith (Season 10)

As a Houseguest from BB10, Keesha headed to Jury as the sixth member, thanks to her good friend Memphis Garrett, who gave her the boot. The blonde bombshell may've placed fourth in her season, but won the $25,000 fan favorite award during finale night and couldn't have been more elated. 

 
James Zinkand (Season 9)

James Zinkand (Season 9)

"Crazy James" was a BB9 Houseguest and managed to play the game while staying true to himself. James ultimately placed sixth after winning one HOH and three consecutive POVs and, at the finale, he voted for Adam Jasinski, who ended up taking the final prize. 

James didn't go away empty-handed though. He was the first male recipient of the $25,000 America's Favorite Houseguest title, an award voted on by Big Brother fans.
