Housemate Teasers (7-12)
image
Nicholas Murphy (25)
Nicholas is literally a part time clown as a profession.  He said if the other housemates aren’t laughing while he’s around, then they’re not human and he will likely lose his job.  Murphy just ended a 3-year relationship with his ex-girlfriend.  He is hoping for some kind of “rebound action” while in the house.  Murphy leads a very healthy lifestyle and cannot stand smokers or people who overeat.  He said, “All things aside, I’m an ok guy”.

Olivia Jorgenson (20)
Olivia describes herself as someone “who survived beauty pageants”.  This 20-year-old should be proud of herself because before retiring she earned over 5,000 USDs in scholarship money.  Olivia is smarter than some would consider, as she is on track for an honors degree in Psychology in her home state of Minnesota.  While she asserts she’s recovered from tiaras, Jorgensson admits that she spends 2 hours getting ready and her biggest fear is being seen on camera without make-up.  That and “mean girls”, Olivia says “mean girls are the poison of the Earth!”

Owen Wilde (22)
Owen showed the producers some of his flight attendant moves in his initial interview with Big Brother producers.  He says he was born to “hand jive” so becoming a flight attendant was the natural choice.  Owen has an infectious laugh and likes to make others laugh by saying disparaging things about himself.  He cannot cook, drive, or tie his shoes but he has gotten by so far as long as there is fast food, public transit, and slip-ons.  He said, ‘fights usually happen when people take themselves too seriously, I just want to make the most of this experience.”

Pauly Polizzi (23)
Jersey-boy Pauly refuses to fit the stereotypes associated with his neck of the woods.  “I usually tell people I’m from Long Island”.  One thing he cannot hide is his big Italian family and that he is a huge Mama’s boy.  He said, “I’ll probably cry the first night.”  Polizzi joins the list of housemates that are looking for love in the house, although cautious Italian would not do anything his mother would’nt want to see, would he?

Tania Hart (24)
Tania is a swimsuit model that primarily works/lives in Las Vegas.  She moved around a lot as a child and even referred to her parents as hippies.  She doesn’t let much bother her. She admits that she will miss her two dogs and cat while she is in the Big Brother house.  While she is single, Tania is not looking for a Big Brother love.  “Men disgust me as of late.. I’m always taken advantage of.  I need to be an independent woman for once”!

Tessa Simon (27)
Born and raised in Portland, Tessa both laughs and embraces the counter culture that surrounds her life.  She makes jewelry and art that she sells in a small studio on the outskirts of the city.  She also teaches paint classes for adults.  She is a vegan and said that is an issue that “no compromises will be on”.  “I will fight for proper nourishment”.  She made jewelry for all other 11 housemates prior to entering and called it “a peace offering”.  She is looking forward to meeting others so long as they give her good vibes.
