Meet The Cast Of Big Brother 19

Age: 28
Hometown: Thousand Oaks, CA
Current city: Camarillo, CA
Occupation: Eco-friendly marketing rep

Three adjectives that describe you: Center of attention, hyper, and adorable.

Favorite activities: I love knitting, crocheting, baking, going to the gym, going out with friends, hanging out with my family, watching Netflix, hiking, dating, and being lazy.

My spirit animal is a sloth. LOL.

What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house?
Honestly, what will kill me the most is being on TV, but not being able to watch it.

I listen to Netflix at work and I watch like five straight hours of TV after dinner until I fall asleep.

It'll be nice though for the TV detox!

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most?
I love Nicole Franzel from Season 16 and the winner of Season 18! She's seriously a fan favorite. I find her the most honest and most relatable. While she did do some shady things, like turning her back on alliances, she was in it to win it and I respect the way she went about it. She reminds me of myself.

We look all cute and cuddly, but we're here for one thing—to win Big Brother.

Do you have a strategy for winning the game?
Yes. Standing at my fun-sized, 5-foot-nothing height might make me look like an easy target, and I anticipate that people in the house will overlook me and confuse my kindness for weakness.

But I play for the long end game and that's to win.

If they see me as a non-threat, I can fly under the radar until the stronger players are weeded out. Once this happens, I can show my true colors, but still play as a "weakling."

You don't want to show too much strength right away, but you want to be strong enough that people keep you in their alliances.

I may be small but my mind is sharp. I can manipulate anyone, including boys!

You don't want to show your cards all at once.

My life's motto is… Live life to the fullest!

Hometown: Lynchburg, VA
Current city: Raleigh, NC
Occupation: Fitness superstar

Three adjectives that describe you: Committed, happy, and influential.

Favorite activities: Working out or playing a sport, cooking, and working.

What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house?
Lack of privacy. I actually enjoy a lot of alone time and I don't believe I will get that in the house.

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most?
Helen Kim from Season 15! She was smart, knew how to work the people in the house, and people knew they needed her.

Do you have a strategy for winning the game?
Use my ability to read personalities and know what people need emotionally, so I can almost be a mentor.

I will also stay under the radar as a threat or drama queen. The physical and mental games are the easy parts.

My life's motto is… Every day you wake up with the opportunity to change your life.

Age: 33
Hometown: Arlington, VA
Current city: Arlington, VA
Occupation: Renovation consultant

Three adjectives that describe you: Fun, competitive, and silly.

Favorite activities: Watching panda videos or, really, any funny animal videos—I like animals!—and eating, sleeping, and lifting weights.

What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house?
Not being able to talk to my family will be very difficult.

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most?
Donny Thompson from Season 16. He has a great beard, wore camo, and, generally, was a good dude. What a fun little man.

Do you have a strategy for winning the game?
Befriend everyone, identify strengths and weaknesses of each competitor, and determine who to form alliances with.

Specifically, I would be good friends with the female Houseguests because they are critical in moving chess pieces in the house.

My life's motto is… I have three:
"Tough times don't last, tough people do."
"Don't take life too seriously, you'll never make it out alive." -Van Wilder
"And every time I see the sunshine, I drop down and give thanks at least one time." - Lil Wayne

Favorite activities: Rodeo

What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house?
Using the bathroom.

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most:
James Huling from Seasons 17 and 18 because I feel like he plays dumb, but he made it really far.

Do you have a strategy for winning the game?
Yes.

My life's motto is… You only live once.

Three adjectives that describe you: Uber-optimistic, energetic, and determined.

Favorite activities: Eating and trying out different restaurants, attending happy hours, running, creative writing, speaking, and reading as many books as my attention span will allow.

What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house?
Sharing a bathroom with several people… [it's] college all over again!

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most?
Hmmm… I'm still trying to figure that out. LOL.

Do you have a strategy for winning the game?
Be friendly and maintain integrity; always be watchful, but not in a creepy way; be observant; and take mental notes about everyone.

Also, remain neutral, as long as possible, and consistently strategize.

My life's motto is… Pursue purpose (dreams) at all cost!

 Age: 23
Hometown: DeValls Bluff, AR
Current city: DeValls Bluff, AR
Occupation: Dance teacher

Three adjectives that describe you: Quirky, bubbly, and outgoing.

Favorite activities: Road tripping with my best friends! They are always up for some new adventure.

I enjoy reading a good book in a coffee shop. I always look forward to dance competition season, too. I love my students; they are the best.

I also love fashion! Shopping is what I am best at. I live for a good pair of heels. I literally dance everywhere I go. There is never a dull moment with me. I am always making my friends do choreography with me.

What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house?
Knowing that your every move is being watched by millions of people. That blows my mind when I think about it.

Also, not having any contact with friends, dance students, and family will be hard.

And living without a cellphone is just going to be insane. No calls from dance moms!

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most?
OMG! It would have to be Frankie Grande from Season 16! I love how he played the game.

Even after the Houseguests 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.

Do you have a strategy for winning the game?
Yes, I do! I think people will underestimate me because I am so small, but, little do they know, I am a very strong competitor.

I will use my southern charm to make friends with the Houseguests. I would want to fly under the radar for a couple weeks and then the Sour Patch Kid in me will come out and I'll make my attack!

I have no problem in back stabbing to make it to the end. You have to make big bold moves to impress the jury.

My life's motto is… Live outside of the
box! Be unique, be yourself, be YOU. Life is too short not to love yourself.

 Age: 26
Hometown: Fort Worth, TX
Current city: Dallas, TX
Occupation: Radio personality

Three adjectives that describe you: Funny, abrasive, and charming.

Favorite activities: Instagram, listening to live music, napping, tailgating, and shaking my booty.

What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house?
Leaving my friends and family, and living with complete strangers.

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most?
James Huling from Seasons 17 and 18 because he made it fun.

Do you have a strategy for winning the game?
I think it's always situational. It would depend on the different personalities in the house, but forming alliances and manipulating other Houseguests is my Plan A.

My life's motto is… Don't go anywhere without beer koozies and a phone charge

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Age: 26
Hometown: Cranston, RI
Current city: Los Angeles, CA
Occupation: VIP concierge

Three adjectives that describe you: Honest, loud, and loyal.

Favorite activities: Going out to eat long meals with great people.

What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house?
Giving up a summer of traveling to share a toilet with 15 other people.

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most?
Janelle Pierzina from Seasons 6, 7, and 14. We have very similar personalities. I see a lot of her game play in me.

Do you have a strategy for winning the game?
I'm going to find the best male competitor in the game and the two of us are going to clean house!

My life's motto is… Do it with passion, or not at all.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Age: 24
Hometown: North Aurora, IL
Current city: Woodridge, IL
Occupation: Microbiologist

Three adjectives that describe you: Persistent, driven, and smart

Favorite activities: Ride my bike, solve Rubik's cubes, play some online chess, snowboard, and scuba dive.

I want to try mountain biking sometime in the near future, as well.

What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house?
I think the most difficult thing about living in the house is having no communication with the outside world.

I might get bored to death and go crazy in there. Having no stimulus with anything except each other will be difficult after the initial "awe" wears off.

It will feel like a prison.

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most?
Ian Terry from Season 14! I started watching Big Brother because of Ian. I had no idea what [the series] 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's nerdy and has giant love for the game; plus, he's smart and seems fun in real life.

Do you have a strategy for winning the game?
Yes. I'm not going to lie about what I do or much in my past to gain trust of others and, I'm going to use a cycling metaphor here, but I'm going to be like a wheel.

I'm going to be the hub of the wheel and everyone is going to revolve around me like spokes on a wheel.

If I think I'm on the bottom, I will talk the HOH into reasons to keep me and how it will benefit both of our games.

If they don't think rationally, like a GinaMarie Zimmerman from Season 15, then I'll have to put fear into their eyes by saying someone else is going after them.

My life's motto is… You are confined only by the walls you build yourself.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Age: 26
Hometown: Grand Island, NY
Current city: Grand Island, NY
Occupation: Personal trainer

Three adjectives that describe you: Fun, strong, and thoughtful.

Favorite activities: Lifting weights, hiking, watching movies, and relaxing on a beach.

What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house?
Seeing the same people every day, but I've been through a similar experience studying abroad.

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most:
Brendon Villegas from Seasons 12 and 13. He basically said, "It's me and my girl vs. the house. Let's go."

Do you have a strategy for winning the game?
Yeah, try to read people and relate with everybody, be real, don't get caught up in stories, earn people's trust and keep it.

My life's motto is… Fear none, regret less.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Age: 28
Hometown: Cathedral City, CA
Current city: Phoenix, AZ
Occupation: Dog walker

Three adjectives that describe you: Cunning, smart, and beautiful because I'm confident like that.

Favorite activities: I play a lot of video games. I know this is not a dating site, so I don't think I need to make up a bunch of crap about how I love hiking.

I'm currently working on my racing license, so I can do rallycross. I've had to put a lot of that on hold due to me moving out of California, but as soon as I find a place that doesn't want $5,000 to teach me, I'm doing it.

What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house?
Not being able to talk to my family or seeing my dogs. I also over-analyze things. It's part of my training; however, it can get me into a lot of trouble because I have the tendency to get paranoid.

Keeping a healthy balance of both is going to prove to be a challenge.

I don't want to end up like Tiffany Rousso on Season 18.

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most:
I love Frank Eudy from Seasons 14, 16, and 18! It was him against the house during both seasons, and he did a beautiful job of using his skills to his advantage.

Also, he seems like a total bro I would love to get a beer with.

I also love Paul Abrahamian and Victor Arroyo from Season 18. They played one of the best games I've seen.

Do you have a strategy for winning the game?
Oh, you know I do.

I would find the biggest guy in there and make him my gym buddy. Once we are allies, I would start gathering a strong team I know can win comps and keep them close.

After we start picking off the Houseguests we don't like, I would start spreading false info and make sure no one knows it came from me.

At the same time, there is always that whiny, crying girl that just can't handle the pressures of the house. I would make her my friend and my secret ally.

This is the only person in the house I will be loyal to. I'll take her to Final 2 and, since she didn't do anything the whole time, I'll win.

I will also play scared, I will never for a second think I'm safe, and, if people are talking, I want to be there.

My life's motto is… There are two guarantees in this life: taxes and death.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Age: 23
Hometown: Miami, FL
Current city: Homestead, FL
Occupation: Haircare sales

Three adjectives that describe you: Ambitious, courageous, and passionate.

Favorite activities: I enjoy playing sports, going to the gym, reading, hiking, traveling, meeting new people, being an adrenaline junkie, and having new experiences.

What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house?
The hardest part of living in the house will be being away from my family and not hearing from them. We are so close and my siblings are my best friends, so it will be really hard not having contact with them.

However, they know that I'm living a dream and playing for them.

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most?
"Evel" Dick Donato from Season 8 is hands down my favorite Houseguest. He always spoke his mind, was an a-hole when he needed to be, didn't care what others thought of him, and, even though he didn't have a good relationship with his daughter, he always defended her, which is kind of the dynamic with my family.

Overall he was himself, spoke his mind, and did not give a sh*t about being on anyone's good side. I see a lot of his gameplay in the way I'll play.

Do you have a strategy for winning the game?
I have a huge strategy to playing the game and it's simple: lie, cheat, and manipulate.

Lie and deceive all these meatballs (aka losers) into doing what I want as I win comps and make them think we're best friends.

Also, find that one Houseguest I can completely trust and make it all the way to Final 2.

My life's motto is… Play hard, work hard, and live your life the way you want.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Age: 32
Hometown: Lake Mills, IA
Current city: Plano, TX
Occupation: Construction sales rep

Three adjectives that describe you: Confident, charming, and sweet

Favorite activities: Surfing is my No. 1 activity. I started surfing when I was stationed in North Carolina and now I take surfing trips to North Carolina or California when I get the chance.

I also took a trip to Hawaii to surf. I enjoy riding my motorcycle, too.

What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house?
I think if a bunch of people are on a different sleep schedule and making noise while I'm trying to sleep, it will be difficult. I like my eight hours of sleep a night.

However, if I need to be in the mix, I will stay up with everyone to always gain the appropriate intel.

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most?
"Evel" Dick Donato from Season 8. I LOVE it when someone plays the game in a way that has never been seen before—and it works!

Do you have a strategy for winning the game?
Yes. First off, the overbearing Houseguests will expose themselves, which should create a nice divide. The ones talking their game out loud, I would shoot for them first.

After getting rid of them, the floaters go next. If you float, you're getting voted out. I want to face warriors and champions to the end, not some tagalong.

After that, [I'll try to] win every competition, which I have the ability to do, if it's individual. If there's a way to accomplish these things through influence and by causing someone else to execute my moves, I'll make that happen.

If I have to gain the HOH position and do it myself, I will absolutely do that, too.

I will never put myself in a pawn position. I will always be a part of every conversation I can and ask questions, but avoid inserting my opinion directly. I'll always do it in a roundabout way, making people believe it's their opinion.

My life's motto is… Semper fidelis.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Age: 24
Hometown: Celebration, FL
Current city: Las Vegas, NV
Occupation: Timeshare sales rep

Three adjectives that describe you: Bubbly, funny, and truthful.

Favorite activities: Currently, I love to go to this place called the Glowzone by my house, which is full of rock climbing, ropes courses, and an American Ninja Warrior course.

I live in Las Vegas, so I do go to the casino from time to time, and I've won a couple thousand dollars on manyoccasions. Every time I break my phone, I win over a thousand dollars when I go to the casino.

It's a weird gift.

What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house?
The most difficult thing for me will be watching what I say because I'm on TV 24/7! I have a lot of opinions and I'm very expressive, so I'll want to try and make sure I don't say the wrong things in front of millions of people!

If I do slip, oh well. It is what it is.

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most:
Daniele Donato from Seasons 8 and 13 because she's a bad b*tch, beautiful, and speaks her mind, which is a lot like me!

Do you have a strategy for winning the game?
My strategy is to come in, play it nice and innocent, and get in with the girls and the guys at the same time.

I plan on making my main alliance with the guys, which no one will expect. Then, I'd give them information from the girls.

I plan on flying under the radar and, later on, revealing myself as a big villain towards the end of the game making a few BIG moves.

I'm gonna win this. Just wait and see.

My life's motto is… Keep it classy, get rid of the trashy. Get money or die trying

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Age: 55
Hometown: Boston, MA
Current city: Boston, MA
Occupation: Stay-at-home dad

Three adjectives that describe you: Caring, humorous, and charismatic.

Favorite activities: Hanging out with my family, watching movies, going to the beach, exercising, and playing pool or darts with the kids.

What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house?
Being away from my family for so long. But, again, I'll deal with it knowing they are rooting for me to win.

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most?
I did meet Derrick Levasseur from Season 16 once and he seemed like a nice guy.

Do you have a strategy for winning the game?
Being myself, I think that will work every time.

My life's motto is… Live and let live! Don't be judgmental of people, especially if you don't want them to judge you

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Age: 21
Hometown: Grand Rapids, MI
Current city: Grand Rapids, MI
Occupation: Cosplay artist

Three adjectives that describe you: Friendly, quirky, and energetic.

Favorite activities: I am very creative and love to create art. That's why I love to do cosplay. Cosplay allows me to be artistic and a nerd, at the same time, because I'm designing and creating a costume or prop out of unconventional materials.

I also sew some wearable artwork pieces for a local photographer and modeling agency. They use my art pieces for editorial photo shoots.

I love to read comics. I like to do face masks and drink wine while watching Netflix or Big Brother.

What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house?
Not knowing what is going on or knowing the deals/alliances that are out there.

I don't want to get paranoid but, as a superfan, I know if I'm ever paranoid, I have to snap out of it because that's what gets people evicted.

Also, I'll miss my family and I'll hate not knowing what they thought about my game play in the house.

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most?
DAN FREAKING GHEESLING from Seasons 10 and 14! Seriously though, how does one go from being 100-percent the person who's getting voted off, to making it to Final 2?

He's a great strategist and amazing manipulator. I look up to him so much when it comes to Big Brother.

Do you have a strategy for winning the game?
Yes! The base of my strategy will be my social game, which I don't really think I need to worry about too much because, for some reason, people automatically like me as soon as they meet me.

I will use my young looks and fun personality as a shield for whenever I need to make a strong strategic game move. No one will expect me to be a strong minded and strategic player.

I also plan on having one person that I absolutely trust and will make sure we each fall on opposite sides of the house. This person will be someone I can see having a good social game that will get them far, but not enough to get them jury votes. This will be an absolute secret alliance. We will keep each other updated on what's happening on our sides of the house.

On my side of the house, I will also have a very strong ally. This person will be the second-strongest physical player on my side. That way, they'll be a bigger target than me.

During the Final 4 week, I will win HOH so that I am guaranteed a spot in the Final 3. No one will expect me to win final HOH because they never expected me to be a physical threat. No one needs to know my competition strength until this point in the game.

Once I make it to the finale, one of those friends will win HOH, which will keep me safe.

My life's motto is… Be spontaneous, take risks, laugh, and respect others.
