Amber Borzotra
Age: 26
Hometown: Knoxville, Tenn.
Current City: North Hollywood, Calif.
Occupation: Esthetician
Three adjectives that describe you: Courageous, free spirit and nurturing.
Favorite Activities: I like to hike, kayak, rock climb, yoga, spelunking, horseback riding, write, late night cow tipping, skinny dipping, streaking, prank calling, playing in Wal-Mart, dirt bikes and skeet shooting.
What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house: Not being able to talk to my mom, sister, or best friend any time I want and not having all the food I want to eat.
Do you have a strategy for winning Big Brother?: It's all a secret! When money is on the line I'll do anything it takes to win. Well, ALMOST anything.
Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most: I like Howard just because he was good looking. At the end of the day this is a game, I just like pretty people!
What are you afraid of: Spiders, snakes and having to eat bananas.
What is the accomplishment you are most proud of: Going an entire year without sex or out on a date.
Finish this sentence: My life’s motto is… Sh*t could be worse...
What would you take into the house and why: Walkie Talkies just because they're fun, my karaoke machine for sleepless nights and a camera for memories. I just want to have a good time!
What would you do if “Big Brother” made you famous: I would enjoy my moment, but still stay humble. I would love to take my family on a vacation, pay it forward and make sure my mother never had to work again. I would like to pay off my debts and maybe one day become an entertainment or ESPN host.
Amber loves to play pranks on people. Being raised by a single mother in low income housing has taught her what it’s like to struggle, and she will stop at nothing to win the money so she can help her mother.

What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house: I do not know how I am going to go without seeing my husband and family, but I know I can do it! Not being able to explore and being stuck in one place. Also, I don't want to clean up everyone’s messes.

Favorite Activities: I love going on runs, working out and going to the gym.
What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house: From watching previous seasons, not having communications from the outside world seems like the most difficult part, it causes all sorts of paranoia about twists in the game. Also, I always have the TV on to fall asleep; it will be difficult to not have one.

What are you afraid of: I am afraid of rats, rats and rats.

Favorite Activities: I am a big fan of guns and enjoy modifying and shooting them; I get to use most of them at work. Also, I like to scuba dive.
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.

Also, I'm a huge animal lover. Sign me up for anything I can do to help reduce the number of puppy mills, kill shelters and helping animals get adopted. (**I LOVE YOU ALREADY, DERRICK!!)

Three adjectives that describe you: Funny, outgoing and creative.
Favorite Activities: Anything outdoors, skateboarding, drums and making YouTube videos.

I will never throw a competition and I won’t lie about who I am or my life, but I'm willing to backstab people. I will seek an alliance very early on with the guys, and I am not considering a showmance. I know I can win this game with my charm and underlying physical and mental talent.
Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most: Hayden because he resembles me in just about every way possible.

What would you do if “Big Brother” made you famous: I would exploit my fame for money and success like any other reasonable person would.

Meeeeehhhhhhhhhhh.
Another season of all attractive twentysomethings with one token old weirdo.
I tried to get my gf into BB last season, but it was hard to convince her that the show is about throwing together people from all walks of life when the cast looked like the rejected group from a One Tree Hill audition. Everyone's first interviews were so vapid and shallow, it made me cringe.
I'm getting a really similar vibe from these profiles.
Oh, and Hayden is originally from the town next to the one I grew up in, which was our bigger, smugger rival town. Lovely.
Im really liking this cast and its diversity. You have a good mix of young adults and adults, an elder, you have the token gay (but that is awesome that he is ariana grandes brother!!), 3 BLACK PEOPLE!!, An Asian, a middle eastern. Some parents, some hipsters. Im just really loving the diversity of the cast
The people that stand out to me as probably not knowing much if anything about the game and/or just wanting to be on TV judging by fav player and if BB made you famous questions are:
Amber
Fav HG: "Howard just because he was good looking. I just like pretty people!"
BB Fame: "become an entertainment or ESPN host."
Joey
Fav HG: GM "because she always had a great attitude."
Paola
Fav HG: not listed (and I'd be curious)
BB Fame: "I hope that I would gain more social media followers."
I also laughed at Donny's fav HG of Spencer saying "He was a likable person that I could relate to." I'm hoping he didn't keep up with the live feeds LOL
Interesting Hayden BB12 certainly had a lot of love from this cast. He's definitely an underrated player in BB history but I'm thinking they must've given out BB12 DVDs as were also a few who said Brit was their fav as well. So answer was overall BB12 heavy.
Speaking of Hayden in a way this cast's Hayden seemed to stand out to me through my 1st skimming through of these Q&As as someone who's answers I liked for the most part more than others.
Lastly I'm not sure exactly what this Team America will entail but to me Frankie would seem to have a HUGE advantage in acquiring fan votes given his large online fan base as well as his sister's even larger fan base which I'm sure she will try to employ to help her brother. That could definitely unfairly skew the game especially early on even more so than Elissa last season.
Brian
Andy, I agree with you. Seems like there are no "normal, run of the mill" people. I am curious to see how things go on-air.
After watching the interviews, reading the bios, and in general taking time to think about it I am a fan of Nicole, Devin, Christine, and Joey. I thought that Donny, Derrick, and Cody might be interesting as well. I am a fan of the diversity, as well as the super fans and not so super fans.
I will say though that there were a couple of girls that I just could not stand off of the bat like Victoria and Amber. They struck me as very shallow and I can't stand the "girls don't like me because they are jealous attitude." If that is your thought process than maybe you should be thinking about how you act that might make women not like you.
I'm not a huge fan of Caleb either because he seems to be one of the over-thinkers/plays too hard too fast kind of people. I have never been a fan of those kinds of players so I am hoping he is one of the first out.
Overall though for all the people claiming there is no diversity in this crowd I beg to differ. I think that there is a lot of people from different walks in this group and I am even more excited for next week!
Is the link you have for the live feeds the monthly rate or is that the price for the whole season? Thanks in advance :)

The season pass :)
A bit off topic, so I apologize in advance. Does anyone know if Big Brother afterdark is coming back this season? I can't find any info.
I'm a huge StL Cardinals fan, and I lived for 13 yrs in Astoria NY, so I'm predisposed to root for Devin and Paola. We'll see how long that lasts...

I was really hoping the rumors would have been true. I love seeing vets back in the house. I would love to see Evel Dick and Crazy James play the game together some day. And, with CBS running BB7, I thought maybe it would be an allstars 2 this year. Oh well.
I can never really judge the cast until the first episode. Just a pic with some random questions really doesn't tell you who they are. If it did, chances are good that a few people never would have ended up in the house at all last year. Looking forward to next week for sure, though.
Hello Jamie, ~ So excited for BB16 ! I have a question no need to post this lol ~ Is it possible for you to email me a link for the feeds app for android ? I downloaded One & all it is showing me is what is on tonight on cbs :( . I thank u for ANY help you can give me . Have great evening .
After watching all the videos and reading all the bios, I get the best first impressions from Devin, Joey, and Derrick. I kind of like Paola and Christine too.
Can't stand Frankie and don't like that he already has a fan base (both from his sister and YouTube). Is it going to be just like Elissa last year where he wins every America vote from the non-BB fanbase?
Zach just comes off as a bit of a jerk to me. Many of the houseguest just felt shallow in their videos so hopefully that doesn't turn out to be true in the game.
Brian thank you for the info.😊
I guess I just feel like the show is more interesting when they cast several people outside the models-and-aspiring-young-actors demo. Renny, Jerry, Chicken George, Ragan, and Evel Dick were some of my favorite players.
I just hope this cast contains more varied personalities than last season's.
Im really excited about this cast! Im happy it is all new people and they seem better than last years, but i dont want to jinx it haha.
Seems like the same stereotypical token cast we get every year. Same ole dudes, bros and blond girls with the bikini models (oh, i like pretty people?)...OMG we get a token flamboyant gay man and he has a large twitter following to boot and a famous sister so maybe he will boost our ratings. Not 1 but 2 black people! A guy in his 40s..,with a beard! and from a small Southern town! And a girl with BLUE hair!
hummingbird: hey sweets! no app needed, just go to cbs.com on your mobile device & login, then go to the big brother page. You'll see "watch the live feeds" banner :)
let me know if you still need help finding it! I'll make a post about it to help others as well.
