CBS INTRODUCES 12 NEW HOUSEGUESTS
« on: July 01, 2009, 01:50:59 PM »


CBS INTRODUCES 12 NEW HOUSEGUESTS AND REVEALS A SURPRISE TWIST THAT EVERYONE
CAN RELATE TO WHEN "BIG BROTHER" PREMIERES THURSDAY, JULY 9, ON CBS

The Houseguests will be going back to high school as they are divided into
Memorable High School Cliques - Popular, Athletes, Brainiacs and Off Beats

A Mystery 13th Houseguest Will Also Join the Game

House Guests To Compete In House That Has Been Transformed Into Green,
Eco-Friendly Living Machine

What group did you fit into in high school?  That is the question 12 strangers
will face on the season premiere of BIG BROTHER, Thursday, July 9 (8:00-9:00
PM, ET/PT), on the CBS Television Network.

12 strangers will move into the Big Brother house and learn that they will be
'kickin it old school' this summer, high school to be exact.  The House Guests
will be shocked to learn that they will be playing the game in one of four
familiar high school cliques - popular, athletes, brainiacs and off beats.  
They will compete for food, safety from eviction and luxury prizes as part of
their clique.

They will also be surprised to discover that a mystery 13th Houseguest is
coming to the BIG BROTHER house, to join the game and give an advantage to one
of the cliques.

"You may have graduated, but the truth is we never leave high school and this
summer we are going to prove it," says Allison Grodner, Executive Producer of  
BIG BROTHER.  "From the brains to the jocks to the off-beat, everyone will be
able to identify to one of these cliques, giving the viewers a group to root
for and against from the very beginning.  The division will cause instant
drama."

These are the 12 Houseguests, listed across in alphabetical order by first
name, who will compete in the 11th season of BIG BROTHER:

Braden Bacha, 28               Casey Turner, 41
Santa Monica, Calif.               Lakeland, Fla.
Single                     Married, Dad
Surfer                     Fifth Grade Teacher

Chima Simone, 32               Jeff Schroeder, 30
West Hollywood, Calif.            Norridge, Ill.
Single                     Single
Freelance Journalist               Advertising Salesman

Jordan Lloyd, 22               Kevin Campbell, 29
Matthews, N.Carolina               Chula Vista, Calif.
Single                     Single
Waitress                  Graphic Designer

Laura Crosby, 21               Lydia Tavera, 24
Atlanta, Ga.                  Torrance, Calif.
Single                     Single
Bikini Model                  Special Effects Make-Up Artist

Michele Noonan, 27                Natalie Martinez, 24
Pasadena, Calif.               Gilbert, Ariz.
Married                  Single
Neuroscientist                  Tae Kwon Do Champion

Ronnie Talbott, 30               Russell Kairouz, 24
Belpre, Ohio                  Walnut Creek, Calif.
Married                  Single
Gamer                     Mixed Martial Arts Fighter

The houseguests will live and compete in a house that has been transformed into
 a mean, green, eco-friendly living machine. The interior walls of the house are
 covered with a reconstituted wood panel product made from re-claimed wood
flakes.  This eco-friendly material reduced the amount of new lumber used to
build the BIG BROTHER house.  For the first time ever, the Houseguests will be
made fully aware of the amount of waste they create, and will be required to
sort, recycle and place all food items in an outdoor manual compost center, as
well as an indoor automatic composter.  The Head of Household Suite feels like
seaside in Big Sur, Calif., where actual driftwood hangs on the copper patina
tinted walls while a working waterfall, using recycled water, trickles over
stacked stone to serve as a headboard.  Zebra wood columns (all faux wood)
press into the room framing a contemporary window that overlooks the "surf."

   Following the premiere on Thursday, July 9 (8:00 - 9:00 PM ET/PT), BIG BROTHER
 will be broadcast three nights weekly, beginning Sunday, July 12 (8:00-9:00 PM,
 ET/PT), Tuesday, July 14 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) and the LIVE eviction show,
hosted by Julie Chen, beginning Thursday, July 16 (8:00-9:00 PM, live
ET/delayed PT).

BIG BROTHER is executive produced by Emmy Award winner Allison Grodner, Rich
Meehan and Scott Einziger, in association with Endemol U.S.A.

So will CBS put them in cliques or will they choose or will it be a HG vote for who goes where?  I think for the drama that they should have the HGs put each other in the cliques.

There's no HG over 45!! i'm thinking the surprise will be an "older HG. I'm not so sure i'm believing it's a former HG or even one from TAR.. if they wanted to do the whole "high school clique thingy.."  i think they would have a "coach "(ugh hate to say coach from survivor) or a principal from a school!!

  :hides no disrepect to my ladies and gents that are up there. but since they went to the AARP :wise selction status of previous HG's i think they need to keep doing it!!  it was surprising at the least to see  how far they made it! :2cents:
zero, zilch, nada, nothing!

I like Renny a lot or they could bring back Jack from BB4. He was like a father figure to Erika and has worked in the FBI or something.

I just wish there was not so many people for BB11 from California. That's like almost half the HGs.   :groan:

True on holding back and not bring back a player. I would be okay if they brought back a player that did not make sequester though but who knows. We have to wait until Thursday. I can't wait. =)
