Andrea
My name is Andrea and I'm 31 years old from Santa Clarita, California, where I was born and raised. I am a book keeper at my parents' Tire Shop where I work with 7 of my 8 brothers. Yes...I said 8 brothers! Growing up in a large family really shaped me into the person I am today. I always knew my brothers would be there for me no matter what and that they'd always have my back. As a result I am extremely loyal. I am very competitive and, being the only girl in my family, I have always felt like I have something to prove. I will go toe-to-toe with anyone no matter what their size and I don't quit. I work hard but play harder. I am driven by my faith to always do my best and to Choose The Right. My favorite part about my life is that I have been married for 10 years to the most loving, not to mention, the hottest man in the world, Kris, and we have three amazing, beautiful children. They give me the strength to push myself to do things that I never imagined I could, like running a marathon and jumping out of an airplane. I always want to make them proud. They are my biggest supporters and my biggest fans. I love them with every particle of my being and I am going to win this game for them, but I can't do it alone. I need your help!

Apollo
My name is Apollo. This summer, I have an opportunity to make a dream come true, but not without YOUR support, which is why I'm calling out to all of you to join my team, as we rise to the top! (cue Rocky theme song) A little background on me: I was raised on the East Coast and now live in the Southwest. I have had many challenges in my life, including being homeless and getting robbed at gun-point, but I always pushed forward regardless. I used my experiences as an opportunity to transform myself, rather than become a victim of my circumstances. In 2009, I overcame my fears and moved into my van to travel around America for six months. During this life-changing trip, I went to over 40 states and got to experience the diversity and culture of this country. I volunteered at homeless shelters, high schools, nursing homes, and everywhere I could. My mission was to spread positivity, to inspire and uplift people, and to promote the arts. I documented my journey in a book I wrote. Do I still have fears? We all do! The goal isn't to be perfect. The goal is to push through as much as we can and constantly grow and expand. Even though I have gone through a lot of tragedies, experienced loss, and suffered from countless health issues, I never used those things as EXCUSES. I chose to not allow my circumstances to be a crutch for my aspirations. Everything is a choice! My philosophy on life is to live it as passionately as possible. For that reason, I became obsessed with learning. So people get a little surprised when they find out that I'm an author, poet, photographer, poker player, magazine columnist, magician, rapper, certified life coach, activist, public speaker, entrepreneur and film-maker! Sound a little too ambitious? Well, I believe "over-achiever" is a term that under-achievers made up to feel better about themselves. Our time on this planet is so short, so why waste it with the mundane? I want to inspire people to shake things up! Break through their fears! I am still working on breaking through my own and sometimes in life, you just have to take a chance and have faith. My goal for the show is to be myself, have fun, and be in the moment. I believe there is an equation for success, and I will not stop until I find it! The fact that you are reading this right now means that our paths were destined to cross and we are now connected on this great journey that lies ahead. And with that said, let's go kick some Glass House butt, shall we?

Ashley
The baby of 12, I learned early in life to talk a little louder and stand a little taller to be seen and heard. I’m the BIGGEST small person you’ll ever see! I'm as spicy as the cuisine my hometown is known for. In a world that is filled with pretentious people, I'm a straight shooter. My flavorful personality combined with my "don't take no stuff" attitude should pique your interest to keep me in the house until the end. I am a New Orleans native that is proud of my Creole heritage, I love the Saints (Who Dat!) and will rep LSU (Geaux Tigers!) until the day I die. Being from the "Big Easy," I know that life isn't always simple and learned this lesson the greatest when I had to flee my birthplace in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. This adversity highlighted how strong-willed and resilient I am, as I quickly adapted to Houston, TX - the place I now call home. Don't let the sweet face fool you, I do have a brain. I'm a paralegal for a respected firm in Houston. When I'm not at work, spending time with family and friends, or out being the life of the party, you can find me writing, singing and recording music. My motivators include: God's love because it is everlasting, my family's support because it pushes me harder, and my personal desire to succeed in life. I possess a competitive spirit and I love to win. I believe everyone has the ability to shine, but I feel I will stand out. More importantly, I don't need to dim anyone else's light to in order to outshine others.

Erica
Hailing from the city of Cincinnati, Ohio, Erica came into the world at 11:02 a.m. on April 17th, 1985, and the world has never been quite the same -- though there seems to be no general consensus as to whether it has gotten better or worse. As a child, Erica was “very bright” according to her teachers, but kind of what you would call in “indoor kid.” A bit of a loner with pervasive psoriasis, Erica could usually be found alone in a finished basement brooding and making her Barbie dolls do it while the other kids were running through a sprinkler or something. In high school, she was president of drama club and got invited to enough cool-kid parties to keep her from developing an eating disorder, so all in all, it was pretty okay. After high school, she attended Ohio State University. Miraculously, she managed to graduate with a 4.0 GPA. She can’t tell you how this happened because she can’t remember half of college. Immediately after graduation, Erica realized that her B.A. in English would not provide her with the above-ground pool full of liquid gold she had always dreamed of, so she set out to develop some marketable skills for the business world. After earning the requisite licenses, Erica worked in the dog-eat-dog world of finance for three years. She hated pretty much everything about it except for screaming out lines from Wall Street at inappropriate times and hanging up the telephone way too hard, which made her feel important. She knew she wanted to do something more creative but didn’t know what yet, so she attended law school at the University of Cincinnati in the meantime. No dice. She completed the first year with good grades but spent the majority of her time there composing totally epic facebook statuses and stupid songs about professors. And so a month into her second year, Erica had an intense quarter-life crisis, read a lot of J.D. Salinger, dropped out of law school, and moved to Colorado. She is now a cocktail waitress and aspiring writer. She has never been happier. Seven kidney stones and law school debt will do that, and she desperately needs your support, America. Erica currently sleeps on an air mattress with a leak in it. For just three hundred online votes per week, you can make all the difference for a hot-mess-with-a-heart-of-gold like Erica. Please, America, don’t sit idly by while Erica fattens up with Ramen carbs day after day. Pick up your laptop and “be the change.” Erica needs this. She’s honored to be your human Sim and promises to do her best to entertain you if you’ll just please vote for her. And she also promises to invite you to her birthday party. Xoxo.

Gene
“Hollywood”, a nickname synonymous with Gene. With his charismatic appeal, dramatic presence, and chameleon like ability, Gene’s poised to impact the nations. This single, tall (6’7”), dark, and handsome young man is a force all his own. As a Stuntman, Wrestler, Professional Driver, Bodyguard, Director, Social Event Sponsor/Promoter and more, Gene wears many hats. He’s an ambitious force that sees anything he attempts become immensely successful without breaking a sweat. One of Gene’s most memorable moments was a towering “dunk” that shocked the crowd and shattered a backboard - gifting him with a few scars and a story! Paintball, basketball, football, snowboarding, roller coasters, collecting Star Wars memorabilia and, of course, his trademark-hats tell the story of Gene! With a personal mandate to enjoy New Life, Gene surrounds himself with positive people and is always ready for a good time, believing laughter is “good for the soul.” This gregarious and fun-loving guy makes sure that there is plenty to go around with a contagious and hilarious blend of knowledge, loving sarcasm, and a razor-sharp quick wit. Gene is a quiet storm with a ROCKSTAR mentality so watch out! Proudly, Gene has always been 100% drug free. Gene has several goals: to be the greatest stunt actor to ever live, to direct national and international hit stage plays and feature films, and open an international chain of faith-based social clubs. Internally, Gene’s upbringing and foundation keeps him firmly rooted. God, a great mother, a close-knit cadre of friends, and a never-ending quest for life affirming opportunities keeps him moving. He remembers jumping over a railing some 35 stories in the air to help free himself and his trapped friends from a rooftop stairwell. Gene’s mother, a strong and driven single parent, nurtured and encouraged her only child. He credits his good friend Joe Williams for motivating him to become a professional stuntman. After an unexpected death of a dear friend, “Rice”, he committed to making everyday EPIC because “it’s not about how long or short your life is, but what you do with the dash in the middle that counts,” Gene says. Gene strives everyday to do his best and focus on what’s right. An avid thrill seeker, Gene is undoubtedly one of the most adventurous and motivated individuals to hail from Chicago. This is shaping up to be a spectacular life for this twenty-something on the national and international stage.
