Who will be the breakout star of "Big Brother 10"?....so far our money is on Libra.
CBS
And you thought the cast of "Big Brother 9" had some interesting people in it?
The cast of "Big Brother 10" features Libra, a woman who gave birth to twins 5-months ago -- one white and one black.
For sheer eye candy, there is a little sumthim' sumthim' for everyone: There is a Hooters waitress and a professional male bodybuilder who will whip off his shirt at every opportunity. During the down times, Keesha you and Jessie can compare pecs...
There's someone "most proud" of being "the female Guinness chugging-champion" at her local bar. That would be the, uh, lush-ous Angie.
And do you want a match made in "Big Brother" heaven? The son of a preacher who recently lost his virginity -- and he says he is making up for lost time. There's the girl with OCD who says she can't sleep at night if bottles in the fridge aren't lined up just right. Hmmm. And she says one of her favorite activities is sex. Ollie meet April.
And let's not leave out the arch conservative 24-year-old Catholic High School teacher who says he would have left the country if Hillary Clinton had become president. Dan, meet the aforementioned Libra, the ultra-liberal black woman and unabashed Obama supporter! (Won't THIS duo be fun.)
And, for good measure, you'll meet, Jerry, a 75-year-old man who likes to show off his guns at every opportunity. And, yes, he is the oldest BB contestant ever.
Batton down the hatches, TV watchers...it's going to be a bumpy night!
And the producers of the hit reality show "Big Brother" wouldn't have it any other way.
Here, a look at your soon-to-be favorite and not-so-favorite houseguests who make up the cast of "Big Brother 10" by the numbers.
YOUNGEST HOUSEGUEST: 22 years old
OLDEST HOUSEGUEST: 75 years old

HOUSEGUESTS IN THEIR 60s: 0
HOUSEGUESTS IN THEIR 70s: 1
(In the BB9 house, 15 of the 16 were in their 20s. Sheila, at 45, was the lone person who wasn't 20-something.)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HOUSEGUESTS! 3 were born in August, 2 were born each in July, March and December. One each was born in April, October, September and May. There were no houseguests born in January, February, June or November. (In BB9, none of the houseguests were born in January, February, March or December.)

COLLEGE (Graduated, attending or attended): 10 of the 13
SEXUAL PERSUASION: 12 straight, 1 gay (There are no acknowledged bisexuals in the BB10 house. By comparison, by our own estimation, the BB9 house's 16 had 6 gay or bi folks.)
MARITAL STATUS: 3 married, 1 divorced, 9 single (but one of the houseguests is living with his girlfriend in a committed relationship...and we all know how well THOSE work out on "Big Brother.")
TATTOOS/PIERCINGS: 3 of the 13 have tattoos or piercings. One BB10 houseguest says anyone with a tattoo or a piercing is "a freak." Hey Dan, as long as you aren't judgemental or anything! (Six of the 16 BB9 cast had piercings or tatts.)
CLOSE TO MOM/DAD/KIDS: 11 of the 13 mentioned strong family ties. Libra is very close to her mom but says she only met her dad once...that she can remember.
SAID I OBJECT AT A WEDDING: 1. Michelle objected at her brother's wedding.
OWN PETS: Between them, the 13 have 5 dogs, 3 cats, 1 rabbit, 1 bird and 3 fish. Michelle, who objected at her brother's wedding (see above), is almost single-handedly responsible for the BB10 menagerie. She has 1 dog, 2 cats, the rabbit, the bird and the three fishes.
HAVE SERVED IN THE MILITARY (or was an Army Brat): 3
SAY THEY ARE VERY RELIGIOUS OR DEVOUT: 3 of the 13
MEMBERS OF PETA: 1. And, no, it's not the pet-lover Michelle. The PETA member is Keesha, the Hooters girl.
