CBS has officially released the Big Brother 18 cast of 12 Houseguests and we have all the details right here including who everyone is, age, hometown, and photos.

After so much speculation, rumors, and alleged spoilers the Big Brother cast is here filled with 12 initial HGs consisting of 6 men and 6 women ready to head inside and compete to be the winner of Big Brother 18!

So yes, the obvious short list indicates we’ll see returning players, as preseason rumors reported, since just like in BB14 when CBS held back the four veteran players. What we don’t know for sure is who those HGs will be and if there is any sort of audience participation to vote them in or not.

As for other twists going on, the rumored siblings were true. Cody’s brother Paulie is here and Vanessa’s sister Tiffany is too. Both of those names were widespread in preseason rumors with Vanessa even supposedly tweeting about her sister and BB18. Good grief. There’s also a HG with the last name of Arroyo, like BB14’s Jenn, but there doesn’t initially appear to be any relation. I’m sure we’ll find out more soon if there’s anything left to uncover.

Our Big Brother cast has a range of ages from 23 to 50, but of course the next oldest is only 32 with the cast generally being right around the mid-20’s. The age average is 27.5 years and the median age is 25. So another young cast again, but let’s see how they do.
