It’s only been one day since the cast of Big Brother 18 was announced, and already the Internet and social media is a goldmine for learning everything you might want to know about the 12 new HGs.
First Impressions of the Big Brother 18 Cast>>
From a Miss USA competitor to multiple underwear models to a Super Bowl commercial star to a guy who dated a Disney actress, plus some potentially controversial tweets about gay people, here are five juicy tidbits from the Internet about some of the new houseguests on Big Brother 18.
Natalie Is a Pageant Girl
This Venezuelan-born event coordinator is no stranger to competition as, earlier this year, she was a contestant for Miss New York USA. She was one of the Top 20 semifinalists, but didn’t make it any higher.
Bronte Was on the Super Bowl
Bronte might have a high-pitched voice and she’s a math student, but she also seems to be an aspiring actress or personality. She appeared in a 2012 Super Bowl commercial for Doritos and hosted a YouTube series for her town of Aurora, Colorado.
Corey Knows Clay (and Has a Questionable Twitter Past)
Corey played baseball for Texas A&M. Clay Honeycutt from last season played football for Texas A&M and they’re about the same age. That’s not a coincidence. On January 1, 2013, Clay tweeted about hanging out with Corey and others, so while they may not be BFFs, they at least rang in the New Year together three and a half years ago.
Good seeing my boys @MichaelWacha @coreybrooks34 and @RossStripling last night. We need to make it happen again #aggiebaseball #uptown

In addition, the Internet has already scoured Corey’s Twitter account and uncovered some rather unflattering and unsettling tweets. Not only is he a fan of calling people and things “gay” as a pejorative, but he’s also use the “f” word for a homosexual (both the three-letter and six-letter versions) in tweets. To be fair, this was in 2011-2012 when he was barely 20 and the tweets seem to be in more of a joking tone than any sort of intentionally malicious homophobia. But feel free to read them for yourselves.
Paul Dated a Disney Actress
In an interview with KFROG, Paul (not to be confused with Cody Calafiore’s brother Paulie) revealed that he once dated a Disney actress. That actress was Oana Gregory, who had roles in Disney XD shows Lab Rats, Kickin’ It and Crash and Bernstein. Here’s a video of them gettig a couples’ makeover.
There Are Two Male Underwear Models
Big Brother 18 is full of eye candy for the ladies (and some gentlemen). Paulie, like his brother Cody, has modeled and there are plenty of photos of him in his underwear on the Internet. And it turns out the same can be said for Jozea Flores, the celebrity make-up artist who is no stranger to revealing modeling photos for underwear. Here are some photos from Paulie’s official Instagram and the underwear line Garcon Model.
