Like I said, I see it as a numbers game. I only watch BBUK so I can't comment on the other shows. I've seen Americans do quite well on BB, they've never won, but some have certainly been popular. How many Americans have been on BB, including celebrity? As I said earlier, its probably less than 10%, and a lot closer to 5%. So going by that, its quite probable to not have an American winner so far. Feel free to rip my logic apart here as you usually like to do. Also, BB has always been a game about relatability, with the public choosing who wins. I think its quite logical as well that the UK public find it easier to cheer on someone from London/Manchester/Liverpool then from LA or New York. Not in every instance of course, but I'm sure that comes into play in some situations.
