'Big Brother 18' Cast: Players From Seasons 14, 16 & 17 Among Rumored Returnees [VIDEO]
The Big Brother fan community is in a tizzy amid conflicting information about returning players slated to play in season 18.
It's been rumored for months that Big Brother 18 would feature returning players in some form, and as the cast announcement draws closer, that does appear to be the case. However, it is not expected to be a full all-star season; rather, the cast appears to include mostly newbies plus four returning players.
Now comes the conflicting info. reality blurred just posted an article Thursday night revealing that Big Brother 18 would feature the return of the coaches twist. This twist originally occurred in season 14, with Dan Gheesling, Britney Haynes, Mike Boogie Malin and Janelle Pierzina coming back to coach three new houseguests each. Eventually, the coaches entered the game as regular players.
This time around, reality blurred reports from sources that the BB18 coaches are Big Brother 14 winner Ian Terry, Big Brother 16 winner Derrick Levasseur, Big Brother 17 standout Vanessa Rousso and fellow Big Brother 17 standout Audrey Middleton.
The report did suggest that this twist may called something different, though sounded relatively confident that these are the four returnees.
Meanwhile, Big Brother Canada houseguest Jordan Parhar revealed info of his own the conflicts with this report. Parhar tweeted that there are four returnees, though not the ones posted by reality blurred. The reality star revealed that it is in fact the following players returning: Big Brother 14's Frank Eudy, Big Brother 16's Nicole Franzel, Big Brother 17's Da'Vonne Rogers and Big Brother 17's James Huling.
It's not entirely clear whose sources are correct, though either way it's looking like we are getting returnees from seasons 14, 16 and 17. Of course, it's also possible that there is false information running rampant right now, and it's simply all new players again.
Regardless, fans will find out the new houseguests on Monday at 11 a.m. ET on the Big Brother live feeds. It remains to be seen if the potential returnees will be revealed at this time, too.
Big Brother 18 premieres Wednesday, June 22 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS.
