New Season Of 'Big Brother' Kicks Off With Twists

NEW YORK (CBS) ― CBS kicks off a brand new season of 'Big Brother' Tuesday.

This season marks a first for the show by introducing an all single cast and the most Houseguests in 'Big Brother' history.

When this group of 16 singles enters the 'Big Brother' house, they will be told they are being matched up with their "soul mate," a stranger who may prove to be their true love or their worst nightmare.

Whether there is a love connection or not, once paired up, the Houseguests' life in the game depends on their partner. They must strategize, plot and scheme together as a couple for a chance at the prize. These "lovebirds" will live together as a couple meaning they will sleep in the same bed, hold Head of Household as a couple, be nominated for eviction as a pair, and if the time comes, say their goodbyes together upon eviction.

The show traditionally follows a group of people living together in a house outfitted with dozens of cameras and microphones recording their every move 24 hours a day.

Each week the Head of Household nominates two houseguests for eviction. The remaining houseguests vote on who gets the heave ho. At the end, the last remaining Houseguests will receive a Grand Prize of $500,000 and a second place prize of $50,000.
