Hey all, first let me start by saying that I am not one who normally comes on these fan forum sites to talk Big Brother (or anything, really). Someone I am fairly close with has a loved one who works for CBS and he provided me with some pretty cool news for this season. I will not say that this is 100% legit info, but I trust this person enough and I think that it is true. Especially with how much detail I've been given. The reason I decided to post this on this website is because I have a friend who is a huge big brother fan and he is a regular poster here (so he tells me). He told me to post my info on this site and so, here I am... So to start, I will say there will be 16 people in the house this year but only 14 actual houseguests. The main twist this season is Battle of the Sexes. There will be 14 new houseguests and 2 returning players who will be the "leaders" or "coaches" of their "team". One female & one male will return. Both are from recent seasons but I will not reveal their names as my friend told me that I could ruin their chances? I don't know how this stuff works lol so I'll just keep quiet about that So basically each week the girls & guys will compete separately for HOH. The winning male & female of each comp will compete against each other 1 on 1 in the Battle of the Sexes comp. Whoever wins must nominate 2 people of the opposite gender. The "team leaders" (returnees) can not be nominated as they will not be considered houseguests. Additionally, each week the 2 returning players will battle in a separate competition and they will be competing for FOOD for their gender. So if the female returnee wins, all the female houseguests will get food and hot water while the males will be on slop and cold water. No have-not room while this twist is in play. The losing genders will be given sleeping bags and will be able to bunk wherever they want in the house, but only in their sleeping bag - on the floor. This twist will last throughout the entire pre-jury portion of the game. Once this stage of the game is over, one final competition will take place between the men and the women and the 1 winning male and 1 winning female must choose to evict one of their team mates (same gender) or team leader from the game. If the team leaders survive they become houseguests themselves, if they are eliminated they become the first members of the jury. Regular have-not comps and have-not room will come back into play at this portion of the game. Lastly there will be not 1 but 2 returning jury members this season. The 2 returnees will be eligible to return if they get eliminated as well. This twist will come into effect when we are at the final 5. Unsure if it will be by public vote or competition, or another method, but 2 of the 6 jury members will return, making the final 5 go back to final 7. One female & one male will return. If there is only 1 female or 1 male making up this jury of 6, then that person automatically returns to the game.
Well, that's all the info I've got for you guys. Do what you'd like with it. Tomorrow we will be introduced to the 14 houseguests while the 2 returning team leaders will only be revealed on premiere night! We've got a crazy summer ahead of us this year, I can feel it!
