Meet the Big Brother season 25 cast: who are the houseguests?
It's time to meet the 16 houseguests who are joining Big Brother season 25. Since this is a milestone year for Big Brother we can only imagine that this group of houseguests will be faced with some of the biggest challenges and twists in the history of the series.
In case you need a refresher, here's what Big Brother is all about:
"Big Brother follows a group of people living together in a house outfitted with 94 HD cameras and 113 microphones recording their every move 24 hours a day. Each week, someone will be voted out of the house, with the last remaining Houseguest receiving the grand prize of $750,000."
This year's houseguests are a cross-section of age, gender and backgrounds. There's a Deaflympics gold medalist, a physician and a political strategist, and one of the houseguests is the son of a Survivor legend.
We can only imagine what's in store for the houseguests this season, so let's take a moment to learn more about who they are and where they're from.
