As we watch new seasons of Big Brother come and go, there is always that one houseguest that leaves the best impression on us. These players are better labeled as America's Favorite Player (or AFP), as they never ceased to make the country fall in love with them over and over again because of their cool personality or because they were simply the best player of the season.

AFPs come in all different shapes and sizes. For example, for Big Brother season 25, Cameron Hardin took away the title because the nation believed he was the best player of that season. On the other hand, Taylor Hale, winner of AFP as well as the victor of Big Brother season 24, received AFP because she not only played a game that showcased her unbridled persistence but also because she endured the most after being bullied and ostracized for the majority of her season.

Different reasons contribute to America's belief of who deserves AFP each season. We can't wait to why future houseguests deserve to win the unique title. Until then, however, let's take a look at everyone who's won AFP thus far!

Every winner of America's Favorite Player so far

Despite America's Favorite Player being the iconic title that it is, this title wasn't always a thing nor did it always have the same cash prize every season. Rather, it was season 7 that saw the start of the AFP title and season 23 that saw the largest cash prize increase. As the seasons went on, things may have changed, but the esteem behind the title stayed the same.

Here are the select few Big Brother houseguests who have been lucky enough to be crowned America's Favorite Player!
