On the afternoon of Monday, March 16, 2026, an unusual situation unfolded in BBB 26, Globo's reality show. The Big Fone rang, causing a rush in the house. Samira Sagr was the first to answer the phone but dropped it without completing the call and without hearing the full message, as reported by Folha de S.Paulo's F5 section. Ana Paula Renault, a gaúcha journalist, then picked up the phone and responded to the call. An earlier report indicated that the production would need to decide who would receive the prize announced by the Big Fone. However, following the confusion, the sponsor chose to award both sisters, Ana Paula Renault and Samira Sagr. This resolution settled the dispute arising from the simultaneous or sequential answering of the same call. BBB 26 continues with dynamics such as wall confrontations and challenges, but this episode highlighted the unpredictability of the Big Fone.
