The popular reality show 'Big Brother Brasil 25' (BBB 25) is underway, but viewers will need to stay up later than usual to catch the next episode due to an alteration in Globo's programming. On Thursday, March 20, 2025, host Tadeu Schmidt announced a schedule change to accommodate the Brazilian national football team’s match against Colombia as part of the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers.
As a result of this change, the second phase of the Leader's Test will begin at 11:45 p.m. Schmidt revealed, "The final phase will be live during the program, which will start a little later, 11:45 p.m. after the football." The match is set to kick off at 9:35 p.m., following a broadcast of the soap opera 'Mania de Você'.
Fans of BBB 25 will be eager to see how the Leader's Test unfolds, as Tadeu explained that this week’s challenge is divided into two parts. The first half will occur during the day at 2:00 p.m. Schmidt shared, "The first part of the Leader's Test starts at 2 p.m., also known as two in the afternoon." This timing setup means housemates will be tested in two distinct sessions, with the winner taking a significant role in determining the dynamics of the week.
In today's challenge, the current leader, Guilherme, is responsible for vetoing one participant from the Leader's Test, making the stakes even higher. The winner of today’s test will have additional power, as they will define who from the house enters the VIP section and who is relegated to the 'Xepa', with only two bracelets available for this important decision.
The dynamics of the challenge do not stop there; beyond the Leader's Test, Tadeu outlined other important events to expect this week in BBB 25. On Friday, participants will face an Auction of the Curinga Power, during which they can leverage unique advantages like the Marreta Power, allowing one player to save someone indicated by the Big Fone. The program plans to define several targets for the 'Na Mira do Líder' game, creating further intrigue among contestants.
Saturday promises more action with the Angel Test, while the Big Fone will ring during the live program to put two housemates on the chopping block. The week culminates in a triple wall formation on Sunday, followed by the 12th elimination on Tuesday, March 25.
As excitement builds ahead of the Leader's Test and with a flurry of events planned for the week, fans of BBB 25 should prepare for a thrilling continuation of the season—albeit a bit later than usual. The schedule change reflects the importance of the national football match while keeping the competitive spirit of the reality show alive.
