Secret Story 8 - Power Shift is the eighth season of the Big Brother based ORG, Secret Story.

This season, a new "corporate" game was introduced, where housemates became "Wall Street bankers" as they were given the chance to invest and try their luck at the Stock Exchange inspired game mechanic. Housemates will earn and lose points in this Stock Exchange that can be used to buy various in-game advantages.

Housemates will also be given the opportunity to overthrow the Head of House each week, and then bid for the coveted position by using their points to buy their position.

Changes

• Corporate Game - Replacing Salem and previously Secrets, a new game will be introduced. Several corporations will be present in which housemates must invest in. Every week housemates will lose or earn points based on their investments.
  • Points Store - Housemates will be able to buy various in-game advantages using their points.
• Power Shift - The main twist of the season, housemates will be given the opportunity to overthrow the Head of House each week and buy the coveted spot with their points in a bid-like method that will put many players in immediate danger as you never know who's willing to stage the coup!

Red Phone

There are a Red Pay Phone installed in the house. At random times during the season it will rang and the housemate bid to answer it. Highest unique bid wins, but the outcome is a mystery each time. This is the history of the calls.

Week	Day	Recipient	Bid	Outcome
Week 1	Day 1	Dylan	9,999	Became the first Head of House.
Week 2	Day 14	Kyle	6,000	Nothing.
Week 4	Day 24	Alex	4,000	A free purchase of any choice that doesn't exceed Alex's banked points.
Week 6	Day 39	Nifty	Pre-paid	Choose 3 other people for a Dinner, and await further instructions. The next day, the three people along with Nifty, lost 50% of their points that were evenly divided among the non-selected three people remaining.

Veto Players

This season six players will participate each week in the Power of Veto competition. But given the Corporate's twist, it's possible that this may not be true each week.

Notes

• Note 1 - On Day 1, the Red Phone rang, the recipient of this call became the first Head of House. Instead of the HoH challenge, the competition was for immunity and two people won immunity, Alex and Tata.
• Note 2 - Eviction that was planned on Day 29 was delayed to Day 30 due to ... technical difficulties *hic*.
• Note 3 - Alex purchased the Void-A-Vote and used it to void Nifty's vote.
• Note 4 - In Week 6, the house chose to overthrow Tata as Head of House. Nifty won the bidding and became the replacement HoH.
• Note 5 - Before the nominations even occurred, Jordan used his Cursed Trophy to earn himself the Golden Power of Veto, as a result, no competition occurred and instead Jordan was immediately given the Veto following the nominations ceremony.
• Note 6 - Edward failed to submit his replacement nominee on time and was therefore automatically nominated for eviction instead.
• Note 7 - The Jury of Seven chose between Hunter of Nifty to become the new Champion of Secrets.
• Note 8 - Eva did not submit her vote on time.
