Big Brother 11's Jeff and Jordan: 'We are dating'
In anticipation of their Oct. 27 appearance on The Bold and The Beautiful (they’ll co-star opposite Jennifer Gareis’ Donna and Aaron D. Spears’ Justin in flashback scenes of an ’80s high school dance) Big Brother 11 winner Jordan Lloyd – together with America’s Favorite Player Jeff Schroeder – talked to EW about acting for daytime, spending their winnings, and (finally!) becoming a couple.
Have you watched episodes of Big Brother 11 yet?
Jeff I’ve watched a couple clips here and there, but I haven’t watched a whole episode yet.
Jordan I watched them the other night. I was bored and I couldn’t sleep so I was on YouTube. I was kinda cringing. Natalie surprised me the most. All the lies she said … I guess I was just being naïve, believing her. Kevin was funny in the diary room. I loved some of the stuff he said like ‘biz natch.’
Have you spent your winnings yet?
Jordan I have. I just closed on a townhouse yesterday so I’m at the new place right now. It’s for me, my mom and my brother – it’s three bedrooms and two baths. I moved out of the Matthews toward Waxhaw (North Carolina). I haven’t gone back to work yet because there’s been a lot of stuff going on. If nothing happens out of this, I’ll probably start back the first of the year. I was a waitress and I was working as a receptionist at a hair salon.
Jeff I just took my car in for oil change. I haven’t splurged.
What was it like doing The Bold and the Beautiful?
Jordan When CBS told us about it, I was so scared because I had never acted before. When I found out I just had a little bit of lines …I was still freaking out. I had one sentence but I studied it for three hours. Jeff was making fun of me about it. I play Donna’s best friend.
Jeff I don’t know who I am.
Jordan He’s just like the announcer. You know when you go to prom and there’s a DJ guy who normally announces the prom king and queen? It’s an ’80s flashback.
Jeff We’re not together in the show. We could be. We could make up some characters. We just had one line each and we did it in one afternoon. They did hair and makeup. Jordan’s hair was out of control and I looked like a pirate. It was fun, though.
Fans want to see you as a team on The Amazing Race. Any overtures from the AR people?
Jeff No overtures, just a couple of songs (laughs). I don’t think me and Jordan would be opposed to that but no offers yet.
Do you want to do more work in front of the camera?
Jeff I definitely do. Hopefully this opened a couple of doors and I can keep it rolling. My niche would be hosting so I can be myself and crack jokes. I don’t know how great of an actor I am – to get up with big actors, I might ruin the scene.
Jordan At first I didn’t want to, but then we did Bold and being in Los Angeles, I kinda wanted to. I don’t know if I’d be good at it, but then I never thought I’d win Big Brother. So why not try it? If that doesn’t work out, I always wanted to be a dental hygienist.
Are you guys officially dating now?
Jeff Go ahead, Jordan.
Jordan Why do you always make me do it?
Jeff Because you love it!
Jordan We are. It’s been a long time since we’ve seen each other, though. Right after the show, we’d only go about four days before seeing each other. I went to Chicago to meet his family. He has a huge family.
Once you got out of the BB house, did you discover how popular you were with fans?
Jordan We always said on the show that nobody was watching it and how it was the worst. Now, it’s weird. People notice us when we’re together more than when we are by ourselves. I took Jeff shopping at the mall and the guy helping was was like, ‘the lady next to you is freaking out, she loves y’all.’ I was like, ‘Really?’
Jeff I just started Twittering and people are like, ‘Why aren’t you answering people?’ I have 15,000 fans! How am I gonna answer all these people? It’s kinda overwhelming … you can’t make everybody happy all of the time. But I appreciate all the positive feedback. I think we’re winding down. Our 15 minutes is about up.

Jordan did not go to Chicago to attend the Kid Fight Cancer Fall Gala charity event that Jeff attended last night. She is busy back home getting settled in the new townhouse she bought for her family. Jeff tweeted that the event was so much fun. No word on when the J's will get together again but I'm sure it'll be soon. This is the longest they have been apart ever since BB ended on 9/15.

After spending three months in a house of backstabbers, liars, and cheats, Big Brother’s dazzling duo Jordan Lloyd and Jeff Schroeder apparently haven’t had enough. The newly-minted couple will try their hand at scripted subterfuge with a pair of cameo roles on CBS’s daytime stalwart The Bold and the Beautiful. From BB to B&B. What is it about that abbreviation that these kids just can’t get enough of?
Needless to say, not even the antics of their former housemates Russell and Chima could prepare these two for their daytime debut. “Oh my God!” Jordan tells PEOPLE, “I was so scared! I’ve never acted or anything like that. I only had one line, but I was like, ‘Please get this right, don’t mess up!’”
As for Jeff, cooler heads were prevailing. That is, at least until the 30-year-old got a look at the wardrobe. “It was an ’80s flashback,” he tells PEOPLE with a groan. “So I was wearing a vest attached to my shirt, and black pants with glitter thrown in there. I looked like a pirate, and not a cool pirate, but like a five-dollar costume you buy just before Halloween at the grocery store.”
To make matters worse was the wardrobe department’s attention to detail. “I even had to wear penny loafers,” Jeff says with a laugh, “with the pennies stuck in the front of them!”
And even though her nerves were getting the better of her, Jordan rose to the occasion in the end, just like she did in the BB house. “Part of my line was, ‘You’re big brother Storm will be so proud,’”Jordan says, “but I kept wanting to say, ‘You’re big brother Earl.’ It just sounded right to me, but I ended up nailing it in the first try.”
Not as fortunate as Jordan? Her “pirate” boyfriend, who needed a couple takes to get his line right. “Jordan was really nervous, and I wasn’t,” Jeff says, “and I’m the one that ends up flubbing his line. Go figure.”
The Bold and the Beautiful episode featuring Jeff and Jordan airs Tuesday, Oct. 27 on CBS.

Ross Matthews read this e-mail Jeff sent to Jordan after she did the show with Ross last week:
Hey Jordan, sorry I just woke up, got your message. The strangest thing about your message, I was just having a dream about Ross Matthews. Now you text me and tell me you were just on his show. Weird. Good thing we're a couple now otherwise I would get a little nervous if I were you. ha ha. Just want to say I had a great time this week with you in Cali, miss you and can't wait to see you xoxo Jeff
