There are 8 confirmed Big Brother 13 Houseguests. 26 year old Jason Thomas, a boxing promoter, was taken out of the line up by producer Alison Grodner after his initial casting without much explanation for the change other than that it was a "creative decision." Grodner had added "he's a good kid -- who knows, maybe you'll see him next year."
At Admit One, we can't help but wonder if the last minute axe on Thomas has something to do with BB13's theme of "Dynamic Duos" in which 3 couples (still a big surprise who they'll be!) from former Big Brother seasons will return to the house. After all, in that case, Thomas would be the odd man out literally since 8 plus 6 is 14 and he would be #15.
Here are the 8 confirmed BB13 Houseguests:
Top: Left to Right:
SHELLY MOORE, 41, LOUISIANA
Shelly is married with an 8 year old daughter. She works in the sporting goods industry and travels a lot for her job. At 41, she's the oldest houseguest this season.
PORSCHE BRIGGS, 23, FLORIDA
Porsche is a self-described "VIP cocktail waitress" at Miami's Mynt Lounge who brags that she once got a tip of 10K. (We won't ask what she had to do for that!) Porsche says she's not above a 'showmance' (oh what a shocker!) and her best strength is being able to get along with all types of people.
LAWON EXUM, 39, CALIFORNIA
Lawon, is a legal file clerk who hopes to be the male version of Mary Hart, the entertainment reporter, one day. He claims to have both beauty and brains.
KEITH HENDERSON, 32, ILLINOIS
Keith is a deacon in the Baptist Church. He's also a HR manager who plans on telling his Big Brother housemates that he's a garbage man. He figures that people will think that a human resources manager will be too good at figuring out others. Keith stresses that in BB he'll be "playing a character" and adds that his biggest dream is to be on soap operas.

KALIE BOOKER, 30, CALIFORNIA
Kalie is a writer and part-time bartender who moved to California from Philadelphia. Her motto for BB13 is "Lie to everybody, trust nobody" although she says she's going to try to be "as truthful as possible."
DOMINIC BRIONES, 25, CALIFORNIA
Dominic is a college student and catalog model of Filipino-Italian decent. We here at Admit One wonder if he'll be one of the first to leave the Big Brother house if what he says is true. Dominic says it's next to impossible for him to keep a secret!
CASSI COLVIN, 26, TENNESSEE
Cassi, a cosmetics and fashion model who is originally from Texas, was picked by Tyra Banks for the very first season of America's Next Top Model, but turned it down with no regrets. The reason? Cassi says she would have had to give up her modeling agents and didn't want to "burn any bridges."
ADAM POCH, 39, NEW JERSEY
Adam is a music inventory manager (whatever that is) as well as a self-professed "teddy bear" of a guy. He describes his music interests as diverse and including both Broadway musicals and heavy metal. His other 'likes' include celebrity gossip, the TV show BH90210, and appletinis. His biggest BB13 strength? Being a good listener he says.
Well, there we go! What do you think of these 8 contestants?
Who do you hope comes back from past BB seasons? (My vote: Jeff and Jordan)
I'll be watching Big Brother 13's season premier tomorrow night and will recap here -- so stay tuned! (The subscribe link is faded on this black background, but it's right below the comments box. :)
See you tomorrow!!
