Some info on Kail.

(Also own personal opinion, I think Amber and Kail are enemys because Amber's says separated and Kail's is married and everyone is single)

Thanks to realitybbq and Jokers for these links.

[Captain.Remy]

I think Kail could be a great game-player, I don't know, she's a buisness woman, she can be a b****.

Dick appearently is a big fan and would post over on realitybbq. I guess he will need something because him and Zach scare me by their pictures. Dick reminds me a lot of crazy Scott from big brother 4 the one who threw the chair.

[Captain.Remy]

I love when Julie said "Oh Yeah" in the advert, the music rocks ! Finally after 7 years of "nice and calm people"....Big Brother is getting evil !!!!

The Early Show segment just aired. Not to much revealed. Joe is 6'4, really smart, and over the top according to Grodner. As I expected has already pretty much predicted the twist. Amber works at Ceaser's Palace. Daniele works at Hooters. Dick manipulates girls. I still like Eric so far which is good. He says he is charismatic and that when he cuts someone's throat they won't see it. Jameka is excited about being around white people. because she has always been around blacks. I think they showed Jessica doing some like dance moves or cheerleading. Grodner said Kail is more conservative then most houseguests and is a republican. Nick is obsessed with his muscles and thinks the girls will love him. Zach went to Florida State. Here is the video

After this segment and the very short bios I
really like: Eric, Mike, Jameka, and Kail.
like: Amber, Daniele, and Zach
undecided: Carol, Dustin, Jen, Jessica, and Joe
dislike: Nick and Dick.

THE TWIST
According to the article, this year's twist is called "America's Player." Contestants are given the chance to leave the house with more money if they carry out actions that fans vote on via internet or text message voting.

"[A] chosen player might be asked to vote somebody out of the house or something more personal, such as flirting with another player," the article said.

seems quite cool.

"Jenious" I love it.

[Captain.Remy]

Thanks for the video dtd2, that was ace. This presentation of the housemates rocked, they are really funny, crazy and amazing.
I personally love Joe, Kail and Carole, they seem interesting !

No problem. I think trying to figure out these pairs are way harder then with season 6, I can't really remember back to 4, but I am sure that was easier also. With season 6 we knew that each of them had a partner and most of them lived near each other. Kaysar and Mike, Eric and Maggie, and April and Jennifer. Jannelle, Ashlea, Ivette, and Beau all live in Miami, but Beau and Ivette were on each other's friendsters. So then that just left Rachel and James and Rachel and Howie. It was kind of easy to figure it out from there. This year we don't even know how many. Plus their enemies, so they could be from years ago or recent. But it is fun speculating.

[Captain.Remy]

Yes this is so evil and so funny, I hope the producers will ask them to keep the secret. Imagine, to live with my worst ennemy in the same house and I can't tell the others...how amazing ! But it could last only a week, after that, it will be the war !!!

[MarkWaldorf]

Wow, the cast is great! I can't wait for this season.

I don't think that it will be kept a secret though. It might be though.

I'm not sure. Dick and Daniele are father and daughter. I was right.

Some observant posters on the forums found a possible connection between Daniele and Dick. On Dick's MySpace he writes:

"I haven't been a great dad. My daughter hasn't spoken to me for about a quarter of her life. Part her fault, part mine... but, yes... I am the adult, well now we both are, but point is made. We have, or she has always had a love hate relationship with me. I think she gets me, but she doesn't. Is that her fault? I am ****ed up, how is she supposed to get that? How is she supposed to understand that? She has been an adolescent teenage girl, she is now 20, how am I supposed to get that?"

Daniele is 20 years old. These pictures show the two of them together.

Also more info on America's houseguest.
One of the shut-ins has been selected as "America's Player." At the end of each episode, starting with Sunday, July 8, viewers will get to vote on an assignment for America's Player to complete. It may be a personal action, a strategic choice or a voting decision. America's Player can't tell any of the other contestants that they're acting on the whims on online voters and America's Player can be voted off at any time just like any other player. But if America's Player succeeds at giving the people what they want, there will be financial rewards.

I know I'm not the only American on here, but I'll definitely keep all of you guys posted this summer!

I've seen this house, and it looks like they actually put an effort into it and thought up a decent theme to the design.

The BB Allstars last year was the worst idea every apart from the whole "knowing each other" spin in BB4, BB5, BB6, and you could say BB7.

I also saw another promo that had Julie say don't just watch, play along. Now you will control a houseguest, America's houseguest.

And also Julie on the late show was a waste time, she was on for like 5 minutes and couldn't say anything without David asking another question. Also I really don't think that Julie knows anything about the show. Last year she said Japan had big brother and this year she said that they only used the original house for 2 years, although it was really 5 and also said that her producers told her there was sex in season 4. Did she not watch? Here is the video

The official CBS website has launch, but is pretty plain right now.

Also from my understanding this year Big Brother has moved up from CH to a bigger channel owned by the same company called Global and I have heard that they are going to make a huge push for Big Brother. Their website is already better and features a Canadian version of a commerical.

OMg the advert is the best one I've never seen in BB USA ! I love it !

Apparently, according to some websites, Daniele and Dick are daughter and father.
And Carole and Jessica were in the same high school.

Yeah, I posted a few posts ago that Eric and Daniele were together, but I meant Dick and Daniele. Jessica and Carol are both dancers from Kansas, so they are enemies and went to the same high school. It is believed that Dustin and Joe are ex boyfriends because they are both from Chicago. Also looks like my thoughts of Amber and Kail being enemies has been killed by this article.
