I'm watching a few of these houseguest interviews on CBS2, so I thought I'd give a little summary of the more interesting ones. I already summarized Ollie, Steven and Keesha's interviews, so now I'll move on to the rest, LoL.
Libra calls herself a big fan of Big Brother, and says that she used to run red lights on the way home from work to make sure she didn't miss a moment. She's married and fully respects her husband, so she doesn't plan on participating in any hot tub orgies unless she wants to live under a bridge somewhere. However, she's not against persuading others to hook up and playing matchmaker. She's in a multi-racial marriage, and she has two four-month old twins -- one child is white, the other is black. She says that her mother freaked out when she saw that one of the kids was white, LoL. She says that it was really difficult to leave her family, but she's trying to keep her mind focused on the cash, because that's her goal. If fame happens as a hiccup, that's just icing on the cake. Her strategy is to get a feel for the other houseguests, then try and add fuel to the romantic fire for any people who might be interested in a showmance. Her biggest fear is being stuck in the house with a staunch republican, because she feels as if it would be VERY hard to keep from saying how she really feels about them. She says 'that's when I'll start washing dishes." She's also afraid of being in the house with someone nasty who picks their nose like Adam from BB9, and she's afraid that she'll never have time to do her hair properly because "black hair is different and it takes time." In the beginning, she doesn't plan to win alot of competitions -- she doesn't want to be the center of attention, but she doesn't want to be invisible, either. She wants to fall somewhere in the middle. She also plans to downplay her intelligence by talking about meaningless things like shoes and bags rather than politics and greenhouse gases. Regarding politics, she's a huge Obama supporter and feels that McCain's policies are stale and she doesn't like that he's a "good ole boy." She's never been in jail, she doesn't smoke and she's never done drugs.
Very opinionated, but very likeable and humorous.
April is a big fan of the show and has watched every season, but she thinks last season (BB9) was boring and she didn't catch every episode. She admits to having Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. She's very much a neat freak -- everything in her closet is color coordinated, all white hangers, all short sleeves/long sleeves together, she can't have dishes in the sink -- and she's never been able to have roommates because of her OCD. She feels like being in the house might help break the OCD curse. (Personally, I think it'll just make it worse... stress inflames it.) She's worried about living with someone who's dirty who doesn't have good hygeine, and she wants to make sure everyone keeps the kitchen/bathroom perfectly clean. She can't stand sloppy, messy people... and she also can't stand judgemental people like preachers. She's open to the idea of a showmance. Oh, she also has an identical twin sister and she's never gone a 24-hour period without talking to her on the phone, so she thinks it'll be difficult to be apart from her. She cried and cried and cried leaving her sister. She describes herself as fun, energetic and bubbly and looks forward to sharing that with everyone else. She also looks forward to seeing what she can learn from the other houseguests, and how they could possibly change her. She plans to do everything in her power to win the game, whether it includes lying, backstabbing, befriending somebody or entering into a showmance. Her goal is to win. Her biggest fear is being voted out first -- she doesn't want to go first. She likes very bland food, so she thinks she'll be okay with eating slop... she's just afraid of having to eat something gross for a competition like pig intestines.
She has a very likeable personality!
Memphis is a "mixologist" from California. A mixologist is basically a bartender, but he hates the term bartender. He creates drinks from different fruits and spices. He says that he wasn't a fan of the show until about two weeks ago, when he started getting really far in the casting process. He has a girlfriend named Ashley who's "awesome and amazing" who freaked out when he left to do the show. He calls himself "confident but not cocky," and he has a little southern charm. He knows how to flirt with girls and keep them loving him and coming back for more. He says that the girls he works with all love him and want to have sex with him. He plans to work out alot during his downtime in the house. He can't stand ignorant, stubborn people who are unable to listen to different views and opinions. He's a staunch republican who believes that the country isn't ready for a black president
or a woman president. (Uh-oh! I see him and Libra clashing IMMEDIATELY.)
Reminds me alot of BB9's Matt, bigtime.
Jerry is a huge fan of Big Brother and has watched every season. He watches Big Brother: After Dark and the 24/7 live feeds. He's a retired 75-year old married great-grandfather from Texas. He says that the men of last season really bothered him with the way they treated Sheila, and if he was in the house, he would've taught them how to be men -- not boys. He's absolutely not afraid of confronting bad behavior in the house, and he plans to confront it this season if he sees it going on. He's really looking forward to the game. He's not even in it for the money -- he looks forward to the focus of the game. He says that he's physically and mentally capable of handling it all the way, and he really looks forward to the competition of it all. He says that he's not there to be a passive old guy -- he's there to play hard, and he has a plan that he's going to implement in the house. He says, "I'm here to win this thing. I want everybody to know that. This isn't just some little 'get rid of the old guy' stuff with me." He plans to work the people, mentally. He explains that the Roman Numeral of 10 is 'X,' so he plans to create an alliance called The X-Factor. The key to the alliance's success is that they're going to communicate through symbols rather than words. (Whaaat?! LoL!) The alliance will include him and the first three HoH's. It's a very complex plan... far too complex for me to describe here... but it's interesting, I must say. This man is a total gamer! He says that he didn't like Dick from BB8, and out of a million sperm, it's hard to believe he was the fastest swimmer. Janelle is his favorite houseguest in Big Brother history, due to her complete focus on the game. He says that Janelle wasn't focused on the people -- she was focused on the game. He has no fears in the game. He's a republican, but that doesn't necessarily mean that he agrees with everything John McCain says. As for Barack Obama, he describes him as "naive and inexperienced." However, he doesn't plan to get into a political debate with anyone in the house, because he doesn't feel that has anything to do with the game.
Jessie is a professional bodybuilder and former train conductor from Huntington Beach, CA. He's seen the first two seasons of Big Brother, and then the last season (BB9), but none in between. He's single at the moment, but he wouldn't participate in a pool orgy like last season's houseguests. He's open to a showmance if it'll help him in the game though -- he's willing to use somebody a little bit. Lazy people with no goals annoy him, because he doesn't feel like they'll respect all that he's accomplished in his life. He's in the game for fame, money, and anything he can get out of it. He prides himself in his body, and says that "this physique is possible to attain the right way if you actually dedicate yourself and want it." He's also a big sports fan.
Angie is a HUGE Big Brother fan and has been watching it for the last five seasons. She loves the game and how it's played. She's single and recently divorced. She says that she wouldn't participate in a pool orgy, but she'd probably be the girl out there laughing about it if it happened. Being recently divorced, she's not ready for a relationship and she's not necessarily looking for a showmance. However, she's willing to flirt a little bit to get further in the game, because she's in it for the money. She's terrified of the sensory deprivation that she's going to experience in the Big Brother house, but she really looks foward to walking in for the first time and realizing that she's actually in the house. She looks forward to running to her bed and figuring out where she's going to sleep the whole season, although she's not worried about what the bed looks like as much as she's worried about who she'll be sleeping around. She plans to throw a few competitions in the beginning to keep from having a major target on her back, then really push hard to win later in the game. Messy people annoy the hell out of her, because she's really big on being clean. She also can't stand judgemental people. Politically, she has no firm opinions, but she does plan to vote.
I would type a review for Brian's interview, but honestly, he bored the **** out of me. The most interesting thing he said was that he plans to befriend the gay guy of the house.
Keesha says that she's seen BB3 and BB8. She says that BB8 hooked her with Dick and Daniele. She has a boyfriend at home, so there will be no ******** going on as far as she's concerned. She wants to get everything out of being on Big Brother that she can, but she's somewhat afraid of living in a house full of backstabbing liars. She doesn't like girls who have to be the center of attention to get the attention of men, and she's afraid of being stuck in the house with a girl like that. She wants to make sure that everyone in the house likes her, because she doesn't want to be a quick target or an immediate threat. She's not afraid to lie -- she might not be the best at it, but she's certainly going to try. She was really pulling for Hillary Clinton to be the democratic nominee, but now she thinks she'll have to vote for Obama. She once slept with the ex-boyfriend of one of her good friends, but they're no longer friends because she walked in on them doing the deed.
This girl reminds me so much of Daniele Donato! Her voice and mannerisms are very Daniele-ish.
Steven is absolutely adorable. He says that the other houseguests might not like living with a "***," but they're gonna learn to accept it anyway. He says that he has no problem with nudity, and since Big Brother took away all his underwear (due to the labels) he'll probably be naked quite a bit. He has a boyfriend of three months back home that he's in love with (named Jason), and he's heartbroken that he had to lie and tell him that he's leaving for a business trip. He thinks that his biggest issue is going to be wondering whether or not his boyfriend has moved on while he's in the house, although his boyfriend is an avid fan of the show. He also mentions that he hates all politicians because he thinks they're all crooked and self-serving. Ooh, and he plans to be the "gay best friend" to all the girls in the house while also relating to the men of the house with his more masculine qualities. Very adorable guy!
Ollie is the son of a preacher, but says that he's not the "goody two-shoes" that everyone might expect him to be. He's single, but open to a showmance... although he's NEVER had a girlfriend in his life, due to commitment issues. He considers himself a "people person," and he's ready to handle any crazy people that Big Brother might throw at him. He doesn't have a strategy yet -- he wants to see what kind of people will be in the house before he develops a game plan. He wants to lay low and just relax early in the game, getting to know everybody. As far as politics go, he doesn't pay much attention to anything. He's an opinionated guy, but he realizes that the game sometimes will require him to bite his tongue on alot of things.
) I am getting sooooo excited! I have been waiting all summer and we will finally get our show THIS SUNDAY! YAY! 
some of them will be lost without a microwave.
