Big Brother 8 Cast Announcement

by Carrie Grosvenor

It’s finally here! The Big Brother 8 cast was announced this morning on The Early Show, and it appears to be a somewhat diverse group of people. Allison Grodner confirmed once again that some of the houseguests will learn that they’ll be sharing the house with “the last person on earth they’d ever want to see” walk through those doors. This sounds an awful lot like the X-Factor, doesn’t it? They’ll probably do the premiere the same way as they did for that one too.

Anyway, without further ado, here is your Big Brother 8 cast:


Amber, 27 years old, cocktail waitress from Las Vegas, separated


Carol, 21 years old, student from Lawrence, Kansas, single


Daniele, 20 years old, waitress from Huntington Beach, California, single


Dick, 44 years old, bar manager from Los Angeles, single


Dustin, 22 years old, shoe salesman from Chicago, single


Eric, 27 years old, talent management assistant from New York, single


Jameka, 28 years old, school counselor from Waldorf, Maryland, single


Jen, 23 years old, nanny from Beverly Hills, California, single

Jessica, 21 years old, college student from Haysville, Kansas, single

Joe, 23 years old, receptionist from Chicago, single

Kail, 37 years old, business owner from McKenzie Bridge, Oregon, married

Mike, 26 years old, painting contractor from Three Lakes, Wisconsin, single

Nick, 25 years old, former pro football player from Kimball, Minnesota, single

bb8zach.jpg
Zach, 30 years old, graphic designer from Burbank, California, single

And there you have ‘em! There’s a video clip from The Early Show this morning where you can see the houseguests in action. Just head on over here, and click on “Big Brother 8 Preview” from the video menu on the right.

A few quick notes from the video: Kail is ultra conservative, and Allison Grodner suggests she might be the most conservative contestant they’ve ever had. She also speaks highly of Joe, who is apparently very bright. Dick says that manipulating the ladies is what he does for a living (we’ll either love him or hate him), and Nick seems to really like himself and his muscles. Being a “former” pro football player at the age of 25 is interesting - but what’s he doing now?
