Former BBB16 contestant Ana Paula Renault, famous for her controversial demeanor, is expected to return to Globo's reality show in the veterans group for BBB26, premiering on January 12. The news was shared by influencer Muka on social media. Other names like Christiane Torloni and Henri Castelli are also rumored as potential participants.
As the premiere of BBB26 approaches, rumors about the cast have intensified in recent weeks. Influencer and host Muka revealed on social media that Ana Paula Renault, a standout from BBB16, will join the veterans group, comprising former contestants.
Renault left her mark on the 2016 season through a Fake Wall, where she was temporarily evicted but made a dramatic return to the house's second floor, watching the other housemates unaware of her continued competition. Her shout of 'Look at her!' while waking the brothers became an iconic catchphrase. The Minas Gerais native won fans with her straightforward and controversial style.
Following BBB, she competed in A Fazenda 10 in 2018, exiting third with 35.80% of the votes in a heated rivalry with Nadja Pessoa. Renault pursued a TV career, appearing on SBT's Fofocalizando and eyeing a role on Band's O Melhor da Tarde, but declined without a formal contract.
In addition, the Realitys Comentei page on X (formerly Twitter) reported that actress Christiane Torloni has signed for the Camarote group. The same account confirmed actor Henri Castelli's participation the previous week. BBB26 will feature 24 contestants overall, blending celebrities and everyday people in a setup poised to stir excitement.
