The show was produced by Endemol Globo and presented by Pedro Bial. The season was officially confirmed since 2001 as part of the original contract between international Endemol and Rede Globo that provided seasons until 2008.

The grand prize was R$500.000 without tax allowances, with a R$50.000 prize offered to the runner-up and a R$30.000 prize offered to the housemate in third place.

The winner was 31-year-old congressional aide Dhomini Ferreira from Goiânia, Goiás.^[1]

Overview

There were fourteen Housemates competing for the grand prize, an increase over the two previous seasons. The season lasted 78 days, an increase of one week over the previous season. This season introduced the Power of Immunity.

Controversy

Among the contestants was the Miss Brasil 2002, Joseane Oliveira. Rules of the Miss Brasil contest forbid participation of married women, and when Joseane participated, she stated she was single. Due to the overexposition in the BBB, some magazines discovered she was married since before winning the beauty contest. The marriage being proved, Joseane was stripped of her crown, and Thaisa Tomsem was crowned Miss Brasil 2002.

Also, contestant Dilson, not knowing Joseane was married, tried to start a romantic relationship with her during the show. Due to her refusals, he felt unmotivated and left the show voluntarily. Harry replaced him at January 26, and became the first contestant not to enter the show at the first day.

Reunion show

The reunion was hosted by Pedro Bial and aired on April 6, 2003. All the former housemates, except Dilson, attended. Alan ended up winning the "Big Boss Prize" which awarded R$50.000 over Andrea with 86% of the fans' vote.^[2]

Notes

• ^Note 1 : On week 1, there were two separate rounds of nominations - one in which males nominated the females, and one in which the females nominated the males, leading up to the first double eviction in BBB history with a female and a male evictees leaving the House together. This week's HoH Elane while immune from being nominated by the males, could only use her powers during the female nominations. On day 5, as HoH, Elane nominated Emílio. Then, the males in consensus had to nominate one woman to face the public vote: Samantha. On day 6, the women in consensus decided to nominate Paulo, while the men had to choose another woman to be nominated alongside Samantha: Juliana.
• ^Note 2 : Big Brother revealed to the viewers that the winner of the final Power of Immunity competition, instead of give immunity to someone else, would win the immunity. Dhomini won the PoI, but the housemates were only informed about the twist during the live nominations.
• ^Note 3 : Already nominated by the Head of Household, Jean was the only person to vote, since Viviane had immunity and Dhomini and Elane's votes would cancel each other out.
• ^Note 4 : Dhomini won the final Head of Household competition. Therefore, Elane and Viviane were automatically nominated for eviction by default.
• ^Note 5 : For the finale, the public voted for the finalist they want to win Big Brother Brasil 3.
