Big Brother's Season 17 houseguests evicted Audrey Middleton from the house and crowned two new Head of Households during Thursday night's broadcast on CBS.

Nine of Big Brother's houseguests voted to evict Audrey from the game, while one person voted to evict fellow nominee John McGuire. Audrey had also received an additional "penalty vote" because she had declined to attend the Power of Veto meeting.

Big Brother's fourteenth episode began on Day 33. Vanessa Rousso was talking about how Audrey's failure to participate in the PoV meeting was the first time that's ever happened in the history of Big Brother. Audrey was labeled "a ghost" before and after that meeting, as she hid in the diary room for hours as well as the Have Nots' dentist room.

Vanessa believed Audrey was really having a meltdown and her reaction wasn't to get attention from a game standpoint. Steve Moses thought Audrey was going to quit and had an issue with the idea. Jason Roy also hoped Audrey would walk out with pride and her head held high -- the right way, via an eviction.

James Huling admitted he hadn't seen Audrey for days. So as the gentleman he is, James made Audrey an omelet and left it for her in the Have Nots' room. She ate it but didn't acknowledge James' gesture.

When it became time for the live eviction, Audrey showed up and looked great. She made a nice speech, thanking her fellow houseguests for accepting her on Day 1 and embracing her transgender nature. Audrey also noted it was "an honor" to play the game with people from all walks of life.

However, Audrey ended her speech by saying "Merry frickin' Christmas" to those who have wanted her out for weeks.

John's speech was hilarious. He gave a shout-out to his fellow "Wackstreet Boys" -- Liz Nolan and Jason. He also said it would be "cool" if the house voted to keep him around but also "cool" if they got rid of him. John made the house laugh and he's clearly a well-liked player in the house.

In the end, everyone voted to evict Audrey except for Austin Matelson.

In her post-eviction interview, Audrey appeared sad and deflated, yet she was still polite. Audrey said Vanessa's reasons for voting her out were justified -- as all her reasons seemed to be since she was such a great player -- and she wasn't surprised her so-called "allies" Shelli and Clay Honeycutt voted for her.

Audrey was clearly annoyed with Shelli and Clay for betraying her, but she had sparked a lot of drama and arguments while in the house.

The episode concluded with the next Head of Household competition. As the outgoing HoH, Shelli could not compete. The competition was dubbed "Pop Till You Drop." The houseguests had to square off two at a time and listen to a pop song. They then had to determine whether the song identified with an HoH comp, a Battle of the Block comp or a PoV comp.

The next two HoHs that were crowned were Vanessa again as well as first-timer Jackie Ibarra.
