This Year's House Theme has been Confirmed:
The Houseguests Will Be Going Back to High School as They Are Divided into Memorable High School Cliques - Popular, Athletes, Brainiacs and Off-Beats.

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.

The 12 houseguests will be broken into 4 groups

  • Brainiacs
  • Athletes
  • Populars
  • Off-Beats

My thoughts:  Yay!  A smarter than average group.  Diverse?  OK, they're mostly white folk,  but there were some seasons it took me a month to remember which white boy was which.  I especially like the choice of women this year.  I'll be keeping an eye on Michele, she's smart, and a Jersey girl.  Chima sounds interesting too.  With a military family, she should have the discipline and adaptability to play the game well.  All-in-all, it looks like a great cast with all the traits needed to give us another fun season of Big Brother. But what about that extra box with the three question marks?  The identity of mystery houseguest 13 will be revealed July 7th. Could this be a former houseguest?

 

Tuesday, June 30, 2009:  Pictures of the Big Brother House

Last week CBS held a "Media Day" in the newly re-vamped Big Brother house.  Participants in the BB Media Day were sworn to secrecy...  until yesterday, when news and photos broke out all over the internet.

Please note that the people you see living in the Big Brother house are members of the press,  and are not the real houseguests of BB11.

The web site BSideBlog.com had a representative at “Media Day” and brought back a bunch of really great photos of the house,  and these videos:


Part I



Part II



Part III

Be sure to visit  BSideBlog.com for more details and links,  really good stuff.

The web site,  WeLoveBigBrother.com   had a representative at “Media Day” and was able to share a lot of information on what was true and what was not regarding the Big Brother house:

When we first entered the house, I noticed that the one big wall on the side had been changed. It had tons of plants and all the walls had been changed to different colors of plywood. It looked really cool. The interior decorating looked really nice. When I turned to my left, I noticed the kitchen had an oriental theme with Buddha statues and Chinese heirlooms.

The bathroom had its normal setup with no major changes, other than the walls looking industrial. As far as online rumors go, there were no urinals on the wall! The shower door was clear with a little portion of foggy glass so you can’t see the midriff of anyone… There was another online rumor that the sinks were had motion sensors. Jen [BB8] actually thought this was the case and waved her hands under the sink, but no water came out. Then she figured out she had to turn on the handle!

The living room still had a similar setup with two couches that were a shade of purple. There were two green nominee chairs that faced the monitor where Julie Chen talks to the houseguests. The walls were different shades of plywood. I know “plywood” doesn’t sound really nice, but it did look really cool.

You can click here for more info from WeLoveBigBrother.com  and more details on the house and “Media Day.”
