Felicia Delene Cannon was a houseguest on Big Brother 25 (US).
Known for her vibrant and often outrageous personality, Felicia made a memorable impact with her antics, including dropping her microphones in the toilet, requesting groceries directly to the cameras who she called "Mr. B", falling into the hot tub, singing in her sleep, and frequently using the phrase "have the faith of a mustard seed."
Felicia connected early with Cirie Fields, the second-oldest houseguest, and together with several other allies, they formed the Bye Bye Bitches alliance. Her gameplay took a serious turn when she won the Week 3 Head of Household competition. During this week, she executed a significant move by backdooring and blindsiding Hisam Goueli, who was seen as a dictator-like figure in the house, despite this proving to be to the detriment of her game later on.
Despite her strong start, Felicia's gameplay became more subdued as she aligned more closely with Cirie. She often found herself as a pawn in the house's power dynamics and was nearly evicted in Week 6 before a pivotal vote flip saved her and resulted in the eviction of her ally, Izzy Gleicher.
The Bye Bye Bitches would face several blows afterward, leaving Felicia as Cirie's sole remaining ally at the jury phase, to which she had lost trust with anyway. Unsuccessful at winning any more competitions, and as an outsider to the now-dominant Mafia alliance that would win every HOH onward, Felicia would be used a pawn many times over. When Cirie was evicted at the final 5, Felicia was unable to overcome being the last remaining non-Mafia member, and after failing to win either HOH or the Power of Veto, she was evicted three days later by Jag Bains' sole vote. She placed 4th, and becoming the sixth member of the jury.
As a juror, Felicia cast her vote for Matt Klotz to win over Jag. She valued Matt's closer relationship with her and Cirie and perceived him as being more genuine. Despite her and Cirie's vote for Matt, Jag won the game with a 5-2 vote.

Retrieved from Parade.com Felicia is the first woman over 60 to compete on Big Brother. How does it feel to be on the 25th season of Big Brother? What twists do you think are happening in Big Brother 25? Why did you decide you wanted to play Big Brother? I know my age and experience is going to be an advantage for me. I'm hoping it's not looked at as a disadvantage to the 20- and 30-somethings in the house. But I genuinely connect with younger people very easily. My son is 24, and so I don't think I'll have a relationship problem. They might just say, "She's old, and we need somebody to go out first. So let's just pick her. Aside from that, I think I'll be able to establish a rapport with everybody in the house. And they may look at me as their go-to person. I'm not intimidated by anybody, because I feel you're only as strong or as weak as you believe you are. And I've always looked at myself as a survivor. And I don't ever let anybody else take my power. So I can only control me. What are your thoughts on Julie Chen Moonves as a host? What is your strategy going into the game?
