Meet The New Big Brother Season 19 Cast Before Anyone Else

It's almost sweet, sweet summertime—and you know what that means...

Outdoor picnics, beach trips, BBQs, and, well, Big Brother of course!

On Monday, June 19 at 11 am ET / 8 am PT, Big Brother fans can meet the cast of Season 19 for the very first time when they are introduced through the BB Live Feeds. That's more than a full week before the two-hour season premiere, which airs on Wednesday, June 28 at 8/7c.

STREAM: Every Full Episode From All Past Seasons Of Big Brother On CBS All Access



Former BB Houseguest Jeff Schroeder (Seasons 11 and 13) will serve as host and personally introduce each new Houseguest to fans, much like last year when he got to know BB18's Victor Arroyo, Natalie Negrotti, Zakiyah Everette, and the rest of the wild cast.

How will Schroeder welcome these BB newcomers into a world he knows so well?

You're just going to have to tune into the Live Feeds at 11 am ET / 8 am PT on Monday, June 19 to find out!

Plus, stay tuned for even more juicy tidbits before the new season of Big Brother, which premieres on Wednesday, June 28 at 8/7c on CBS and CBS All Access.

I predict

a blond girl
a guy with a six pack
a black over the top diva
a gay guy
a geek
.....

[Calderyon]

^ Pretty much. Groddo likes her repeats.

[armand.kay]

The new thing is a progressive southern bell, before they would just throw in any old racists hill billy but ever since that season they've been giving us cow boy with a twist.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

the new thing is a progressive hill billy

and the victoria/meg/bronte type of girl

[Captain.Remy]

I would actually love a "Blood vs Water" theme.

But yeah....I think we can expect the same kind of cast we usually have.

[LemonJam]

Cast prediction

1. Geeky person
2. "Alternative" person
3. Attractive Southern guy
4. Girl whose intro shot is her dancing in her swimwear
5. Outdoorsy/athletic girl
6. Relative of another reality show competitor
7. Surfer bro
8. 1 black person
9. Flamboyant gay guy
10. Older guy
11. Older Mother
12. Former college football player
13. Model
14. Superfan Dan Gheesling wannabe

16. Another bro

Will check in tomorrow to see how well I do.

:joker:

I'm looking forward to hopefully a fully new cast after watching a bunch of returnee-type seasons between BB18, BBCAN5 & Survivor Game Changers.

I feel like there hasn't even been any rumors whatsoever for any type of All Stars season? or any returnees at all, not including the Survivor rumors which felt like pretty weak rumors tbh

[Vladimir]

Please no returnees!

I would be her for some Survivor players though.

[Jason.]

I have hope that it's an all-newbies cast this year and they'll probably save the returnees for next year's milestone season.

[Jay28jay2]

I think that it is an all newbies cast... Lets see which housemates relatives go in this year :umm2: (i s2fg if they do that again, im not convinced paulie auditioned last year)

[Vladimir]

I don't mind relatives tbh. :D Elissa was my favorite houseguest in BB15. I watched only first 4 or 5 episodes of BB18, but I think Vanessa's sister was alright too.

[Braden]

I always like the cast reveals, even though it takes me about two weeks to stop watching any BBUS season :p

[Vladimir]

lmao same

The cast has already leaked (Link in spoiler, didn't know if I was allowed to put anything on because of it being a leak)

The diversity is REAL :joker::joker:

[Nicky91]

what twists will there be now :)

[LemonJam]

Ok the men are hot and thats enough to get me to watch for 2 weeks

[Morgan.]

So Jessica Graf kinda looks like Veronkia Graf from BBITALY, maybe a relative?

[Jay28jay2]

The girls are very butch but Jessica makes up for it all. I love that most other guys look better than Cody who is obviously there to be the attractive one

[Headie]

Cast looks pretty promising based on images

[Wojtek]

Jillian is winning <3

SvXbZaQ6Gns

[Calderyon]

Very glad it an all newbies cast.

[Wizard.]

This looks like a really fake mock cast but Christmas <3

[Braden]

I also thought it was fake when I first looked at the photos :p

[BBfanUSA]

The Hollywood Reporter just confirmed that this is the cast

Someone from Reddit uploaded them onto Imgur

[LukeB]

Here for Alex

[Jason.]

It doesn't feel like a BBUS cast at all, they're all older and relatively normal compared to BB18's model-types.

I like it

[BBfanUSA]

FYI, Kass had one of the guys from BB:OTT helping her. I recognized him at a casting call that I should've went to. He does survivor too so that could be why we have the bigger age range this year

[Wizard.]

Yeah she definitely needs the help.

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most? Ian [Terry]! I started watching Big Brother because of Ian. I had no idea what it was and my mom told me to start watching BB14 because it's like Survivor in a house. I instantly fell in love and wanted Ian to win. I think I like him so much because he's a lot like me. He is nerdy and has giant love for the game, he's smart and seems fun in real life.

I hope he's the first boot

[Vladimir]

Disgusted at these people choosing Frankie Grande and Nicole as their favourite houseguests. :umm2:

But seriously, the cast seems really good!

I disagree with everything you typed. We all like what we like right?

Well like him or not. Frankie is pretty smart and funny and just quirky.

I'm also black and gay and I like his hip hop urban style.

This cast is also crap by the way. Smh.

[LukeB]

Matthew Clines - Hottest Male
Elena Davies - Hottest female

imo

[Calderyon]

I hope he's the first boot

Grodner´s winner has been chosen.

[Captain.Remy]

Can we finally have an all women alliance that can win, and don't get into their feelings and end up following the guys?

I'm here for Alex and Christmas taking over.

BBOTT Ballsmashers!

[EspeonBB]

I'm not really hopeful for this season but at least they're not filling the house with models/actors in their 20s I guess

Christmas is already the most iconic name ever

[Ross.]

I automatically stan Christmas

Why is Jeff Probst playing Big Brother?

[Nick.]

So production were really proud of their #ChristmasCorey segment (Because that's the only remotely interesting angle they could go with) and they cast a housemate called Christmas? Welp.

[JerseyWins]

This girl that's live right now looks like a TOTAL mix of Natalie Negrotti, Brittany BB16 & maybe like a little bit of Zakiyah.

ie: She's hoooooooooooot

First person I saw and probably the only one I'll see until tonight since apparently you have to wait for them to get to the next houseguest. :(

[iRyan]

Mark Jansen is a friend of my sister!

[AarynGriesfan]

Totally here for Natalie 2.0 ❤

[Macie Lightfoot]

lol I don't even feel one way or the other yet about the Natalie lookalike but poor girl, half of the psychotic BB fanbase isn't even going to give her a chance

[AarynGriesfan]

lol I don't even feel one way or the other yet about the Natalie lookalike but poor girl, half of the psychotic BB fanbase isn't even going to give her a chance

Yeah she will be hated for no reason at all but she will also have a lot of fans as well so meh.

[AarynGriesfan]

Overall this cast seems to have a lot of potential hopefully Grodner doesn't ruin it like she always seems to do.

[LemonJam]

From the bios I actually think we have a good range here! (I think I said the same last year lol but I feel hopeful :bigsmile:) of course theres cookie cutter filler in there but I can't complain about a Vegas timeshare rep, a cosplayer and somebody whose actual name is CHRISTMAS.

[rk3388]

Mess at Raven's favourite player : "OMG it would have to be Frankie Grande! I love how he played the game. Even after they found out his sister was famous he played it off so well! If I had been on his season I swear we would have been two peas in a pod! I loved how much fun he was and how he always talked to the cameras. "
:idc:

[MB.]

Christmas' official job title being "fitness superstar" :love:

[Mystic Mock]

I'll score them out of 10 on my level of interest towards them based on picture.

Mark - 4/10
Jessica - 5/10
Matthew - 5/10
Alex - 7/10
Ramses - 7/10
Dominique - 6/10
Jason - 1/10
Elena - 4/10
Josh - 5/10
Christmas - 5/10
Cameron - 2/10
Raven - 4/10
Cody - 0/10
Jillian - 0/10
Kevin 8/10 That picture makes me laugh.:joker:
Megan - 5/10

[JerseyWins]

Getting around to the bios. First thoughts...

Oh wow these are longer than I thought/remembered but I'll go through it anyway.

Jillian - Very, and I mean very, Basic Betty but seems sweet-and-all so meh I kinda like her but it's a whatever kind of start. #YOLO

Dominique - Also sweet, funny enough, I like her (more) but a bit boring so I don't have much to say either.

Christmas - Probably my fav so far... most personality for sure out of the 3. :joker: (also I might be crazy but I see some winner potential?)

Ramses - Superfan King :love: (someone needs to fill in for Raph).. but seriously I like him a lot :joker: also the superfan status mixed in with the happiness and positivity actually reminds me of Raph. :clap1:

Jason - Rodeo clown... wow. :joker: They stepped outside the box on this one... seriously this is a wild one (nutty if we're going by his 'Whistlenut' name) but I think I like him.

Matthew - I see some Matt Hoffman in him (but much more likable - and I thought Matt was alright anyway but I think I'll like this Matt more)... seems like he'll either be the person who plays too hard or he'll have some serious winner potential, leaning towards the latter. Pretty relatable being a big sports fan, likes fantasy football, etc... ALSO lmao at him saying he gets "Brett Favre lookalike" a lot because I thought he looked kinda like Brett Favre when I first saw him! :joker:

Raven - Hmmm I feel like she can be Bronte-ish or maybe Shelby-ish but ehhhh idk I found her slightly annoying in this. I'm going to say least favorite out of these but with a lot of potential for me to be wrong. She's kinda growing on me already by the end of this video lol.

Side note: Lol @ Jeff reminding just about everyone that having a showmance worked out last season. BBUS wanting a lover's paradise?

Elena - She looks very familiar to me but can't put my finger on it. She's alright, idk what to really think of her but yeah another that I think I like... maybe even a lot now that I've watched more of the video. "I'm a lot... as my mom says" :joker:

Mark - Very nice and likable... I definitely buy it that he's a big teddy bear. (maybe a bit on the boring side though)

Kevin - Pretty funny guy.. I like him. :joker: I feel like I'll either love or hate him though, doubt there will be an in between, just the hit or miss type.

Alex - Love her :joker: Looool @ her not recognizing Jeff and saying "in season 16 those 2 people got married" (the fact that she basically wants to be Nicole tho... RIP to any fandom on this forum if she follows through with that :joker:)

Megan - Wow I was thinking "they really cast a lot of older people this season" then I saw she's 28?! :omgno: (in hindsight the gray hair is just deceptive though)... anyway nice positive attitude but not crazy about her out of my options & she needs to stop laughing soooo much with that annoying laugh! At least have a Johnny Mac or Shelby-esque weird laugh, what are you doing gurl?!?!

Josh - Lmaooooo I love this guy :clap1: :clap1: :clap1: Jozea & Devin put together on steroids :joker: with a lot of douchey bro mannerisms and what not I bet... the energy is insane, I'm excited for this :joker:

Also I like how most of the people said they'd rather lose & be loved and Josh just says "HATED, DISGUSTED, DESPISED" before Jeff can even finish the question :laugh3: ..... and oh he will be I'm pretty damn certain lol unless he manages to become like a Paul fan favorite (but they're not the same at all)

Cameron - They did pretty good casting someone different to play the Ian/Steve nerdy guy role. Not sure if I like him or not but interesting character and he's probably one of the people I'm most curious about to see in the house.

Cody - Looks a bit like a younger version of Matthew to me (even though apparently he's only one year younger). Nice / easy going, likable, definitely "vanilla" though but I'm sure I'll like him unless he bores me too much. :joker: I like how he said "some dads go in saying they're gonna teach their kids integrity but how are they gonna teach their kids integrity in a game where there's no integrity" :joker: Shot at Devin? (even better that he also has a daughter)... he actually slowly continued to get better as the video went on :clap1:

Jessica - Love her love her love her :love: /thirst But seriously, super nice and likable one of my favorites.


I feel like it's pretty tough to dislike many of these people based on these type of interviews but yeah with this as the only thing we have to go on, I'm liking this cast a lot from what I know. This cast actually has an interesting vibe to it. I feel like it's gonna be a lot different than the past few seasons, whether that's for the better or worse idk yet.

Plus lots of diversity, an overall older group... I think production hit a lot of things people ask for this time around. :clap1:

1) This post is such a mess
2) I need to stop using the joker smiley so much

[Captain.Remy]

I watched the interviews with Jeff, and I must say I like all of them. Good casting this year, I feel them. A few things though:
Christmas is life. But she'll be quickly hated if she doesn't set an alliance immediately. She is a major threat by not only her background but her aura. She needs to watch out.
Alex is cute but she needs the take the glasses off.
Jessica is set up to be in a showmance and go against Christmas at some point.
The guys are cool too. I don't see any jerk or stupid ones in there.

[Mandie]

My first thoughts based solely on bio/pics as I haven't watched the videos. However I have no doubt my mind will change once the show starts.

Like:
Christmas
Jessica
Mark
Megan -just hope shes not as paranoid as Vanessa
Cody
Alex - she may remind me of Meg
Kevin - has potential. Like that hes not the geeky/overweight older guy they always choose



Meh:
Matthew
Elena
Cameron
Jose - although no doubt he will be entertaining in a douchebag kinda way
Jillian
Raven


On the Fence:
Dominique
Jason
Ramses

[AarynGriesfan]

Does anyone else think that Elena looks like Aaryn?

[Jason.]

Does anyone else think that Elena looks like Aaryn?

She's Texan too :omgno:

[LukeB]

She's Texan too :omgno:

But Elena is actually hot unlike KKK scum

[Captain.Remy]

I would love an ethnic divide like they did in Survivor: whites, blacks, asians and latinos. Now that's a big twist. But I doubt it will ever happen after what happened in the past.

Or East Coast vs West Coast can work too.

[Macie Lightfoot]

Yes, let's reenact the twist that almost got Survivor cancelled!

[Braden]

Why do welovebigbrother.com not do interviews with the houseguests anymore? I used to love the awkwardness of everyone having to give a shout-out at the end of the interview, 'Hello, welovebigbrother.com fans."

[JerseyWins]

Idk if this is who I was thinking Elena reminds me of originally but she reminds me a bit of Andrea from Survivor IMO.

[Braden]

Mark Jansen is a friend of my sister!

His interview is the first I've watched so far, and he seems like an absolute sweetheart.

[Braden]

I can't wait to say 'Christmas is cancelled' at one point during the summer.

[Calderyon]

^ If she ends up in a showmance and they hit it off, you could end up saying something else, like:

Christmas is...

...coming.

[Josiah.]

I'm watching the interviews that Ika did for ET Canada; and like half the houseguests are fans of BB Canada.

[JerseyWins]

Watching those ET Canada interviews now and actually Cody seems pretty annoying. Too serious and too boring.

[reece(:]

Xmas is the winner

[Headie]

Ika's interviews with the cast:

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfZ9GR-4PXMwCo2in_s9MgZwo5FuBDDQz

[reece(:]

Mess at lazy Alex and her knitting

[reece(:]

Jillian is cancelled for wanting to be Crustine

[Braden]

Based on their interviews with Jeff, and the fact I like to rank things:

Jessica
Dominique
Mark
Christmas
Josh
Elena
Ramses
Jason
Kevin
Cody
Raven
Cameron
Megan
Alex
Matthew
Jillian

I'm sure at least one of the houseguests I've ranked middle-of-the-pack, purely because they have personality, will probably end up pissing me off when their in the house. I don't even dislike those at the bottom, they just didn't compel me.

[JerseyWins]

After watching 2 interviews of each of them, here's me ranking them in tiers. Not really an exact order (I tried going for an order too but they're so close within the tiers that I'd probably switch around at least a few about 30 minutes from now).

I'll be surprised if I don't love them:

Josh (WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!)
Alex
Jessica
Matthew

Probably will like them, if not love them:

Christmas
Ramses
Elena
Kevin
Mark

Probably kinda like or at least decent:

Dominique
Jillian
Jason

Unsure leaning to dislike:

Raven (decent potential because I see some Bronte and some Shelby in her but she didn't click the same way on first impressions)
Cameron (however whether I like him or not I think I'd rather have him than another Ian/Steve not because I didn't like Ian/Steve but because it's a bit of a change and Cameron's likely to do more for the quality of the season)
Megan (she made the least impact for me by far... likability really unsure but I do know that laugh is pretty annoying)
Cody (I think he came across poorly in his interview with Ika... the Jeff interview was ok... a bit awkwardly "alpha" in the most boring way though. Also I cringe when someone uses the word "beta" as an insult :joker:)

[JerseyWins]

"K-Frog radio" on youtube uploaded more interviews on the houseguests.

I'm not going to bother watching a whole other bunch of interviews that are all 8+ minutes long in this case. But I did go ahead and watch Josh's and yeah I'm excited for him. He might not even be as hated as I was originally thinking because even though he's abrasive he seems like a decent person and feels like he's going to play the game crazy enough to maybe be appreciated. :joker:

[reece(:]

Which one is the geigh?

[JerseyWins]

Maybe there isn't one? :think: Ramses could be? But my "gaydar" typically sucks if it's not actually mentioned or blatantly obvious. :joker:

[Jason.]

I'm watching the Jeff interviews and he seems to have aged a good 20 years in the last 8

Check if Jeff is attempting to suppress rage and disgust throughout any of his cast interviews
