‘Big Brother’ Winner Returns as Grammy Red Carpet Host for Second Year

She’s trading the Big Brother house for the biggest night in music once again. Taylor Hale, the history-making Big Brother champion turned on-camera personality, is officially back on the Grammy Awards red carpet for the second year in a row.

The Season 24 winner confirmed via an Instagram post that she will co-host “Grammy Live From the Red Carpet” alongside entertainment journalist Cassie DiLaura at The Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. The duo will guide fans through arrivals, interviews, and viral moments in real time.

The livestream will air on Sunday, February 1 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. EST or 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. PST. Coverage of the festivities will be shared across the Recording Academy’s social media platforms.

The promo graphic from the official Grammys Instagram account shows Hale and DiLaura front and center under bold “GRAMMY LIVE FROM THE RED CARPET” lettering. It positions Hale not as a guest but as a prominent face of the broadcast.

“Get ready for your red carpet close up…from the comfort of your couch,” the caption teases, promising interviews and behind-the-scenes access as music’s biggest stars arrive.

After successfully hosting the pre-show last year, Taylor Hale’s return signals trust from major networks and confirms her growing reputation as a polished, quick-thinking live host. As a former Miss Michigan USA, her on-camera presence blends pageant poise, journalistic instincts, and reality-TV relatability.

Hale’s rise traces back to September 25, 2022, when she won Big Brother Season 24 in a landslide vote. Her victory was historic because she became the first Black woman to win a mixed-gender season, overcoming early isolation in the house to dominate socially and strategically by finale night.


From Big Brother History-Maker to Hosting Mainstay

Taylor Hale has since turned that platform into a full-fledged media career. Since her victory, Hale has become a familiar face across the Big Brother franchise, stepping into the moderator seat for the Big Brother jury roundtable, co-hosting Big Brother: Unlocked, and even stepping into other reality television shows, like The Amazing Race.

Those roles helped her sharpen live TV skills and transition from contestant to commentator, which is a move few reality stars successfully make.

Over the years, she has steadily built a résumé that now includes some of entertainment’s most recognizable stages, including as a host for the Miss Teen USA pageant.

Now, Hale is leveraging that momentum beyond CBS, working with major digital and entertainment outlets, like Entertainment Tonight, while establishing herself as a credible culture host. The Grammys return feels like the next logical chapter.

From underdog to winner to red carpet anchor, Hale’s trajectory proves her win wasn’t just a TV moment — it was a launchpad. And come February 1, she’ll once again be right where the spotlight is brightest.
