Okay, here are the houseguests.
We have Audrey a 25 year old woman from Georgia who's a digital media consultant. (A bit heavy on the mascara in her photos.) She's been a pizza delivery person and an MMA ring girl. She's also a former competitive swimmer.
Next up is Austin, a 30 year old bearded/tattooed wild man who's a professional wrestler. (His wrestling name is Judas.) Supposedly a yoga loving, peace loving guy at heart.
Next up is Becky (my early favorite, but it's very, very early.) She's a 26 year old retail store manager. She has the All American Girl look about her from what little I've seen. Reportedly she likes to climb mountains.
Now comes Clay, a 23 year old student from Texas. (He's likely the eye candy for the women viewers.) He's a former college football player who says he's smarter than people think he is. (Generally speaking people who say that are lying and don't appreciate how dumb they really are.)
Next up is Da'Vonne. Our token black/African American female this year. She's a 27 year old single mom/poker dealer from LA. She's watched Big Brother with her grandmother.
Next up is Jace a 23 year old personal trainer from California. (The male version of the blond bimbo from what little I've seen to date.)
James is one of those rare Asians (from Texas) who somehow found his way onto the cast. He's former military and now working in retail. He could be a competitor.
And along comes Jason. He's this year's nerdy guy. He's a supermarket cashier who plans to put together an all female alliance. I like his strategy (it's largely my own, target the big threats early and get them out while allying with the weaker players) but I'm not sure anyone will want to be in an alliance with him unless he wins an early HOH.
Next up is John a 27 year old dentist from Pennsylvania. He sounds like a bit of a arrogant jerk and could be a very early evictee.
Liz is a 23 year old marketing coordinator from Florida. She's blonde and a bit of a party girl/self-described brainiac. We'll see.
Meg is a 25 year old Jersey girl. (Go Jersey!) She's described as likeable, goofy and intelligent. If she's really a Jersey girl there should be a core of steel in there too. We'll have to see as the show unwinds. She's my second favorite.
Shelli is a 33 year old interior designer who's been married and divorced already. (There are lots of blondes this year which will make early feed watching confusing.) I'm not optimistic about her chances in the game.
Steve is a 22 year old college student from New York. Yet another genius (this is either the smartest cast ever, or the most over-rated) and is a 22 year old virgin who doens't drink or smoke.
And finally, (for now anyway, we're still short a couple of houseguests) we have Vanessa, a 32 year old (apparently wealthy) professional poker player from Las Vegas. Don't be shocked to see her the first one out unless she hides her wealth. (Good luck with that! The other girls will sniff out any expensive cosmetics/fashions pretty quickly and unless she's really careful she'll be an early target.)
It's not a horrible cast based on what little I've seen. We'll learn more as the season goes on however.
Fly!!! Eagles!!! Fly!!!
