Julie Chen Posts Cryptic Video
CBSChen Moonves’ short clip begins with a quiet outdoor walkway, showing a stone path and a small pillar before the camera slowly pans across the outdoor space. The small pillar features the “no” symbol—a circle with a line through it, prompting fans to speculate about one of the game’s special aspects, the Power of Veto.
As the video continues, a traditional-style building comes into view, surrounded by gravel and blooming cherry blossom trees. The setting appears to be in Japan, though Chen Moonves does not confirm the location in the post.
The video is brief, with no explanation or additional context provided.

In March, she uploaded a photo holding a pool ball with the caption “7️⃣7️⃣7️⃣ 🤗🍀,” prompting a wave of theories about what the numbers could mean—if anything—for the show’s upcoming 28th season.
The post drew reactions from both fans and former houseguests, many of whom offered their own guesses in the comments as the speculation spread.
With this latest video, Chen Moonves once again left viewers with more questions than answers.
