BBAU 2025: Casting open, return to Dreamworld Confirmed
- Thread starter matts bb
- Start date
- Featured
The online audition process was a great build up in 2008 but then they basically ignored it and used it just to send in 3 intruders IIRC all of whom pretty much left within a week.New announcement suggests audition videos will be uploaded to YouTube. Sounds like Australia might get (some) say in who goes in?
They say it’s the “first time ever” but, to be fair, technically it’s not actually the first time they’ve done this. Sharing the auditions online was half the process for the 2008 season too. I even think Australia voted for a shortlist back then as well.

Has this got any truth to it? I can't find anything.

I just messaged them and they wouldn't give me a date. They just said the COUNTDOWN TO BIG BROTHER 2025 meant something. Whatever that means?I couldn't see anything that gave away the start date...

All we vaguely know that it starts early Nov. I'm just looking forward to the promos. Hopefully the same approach 10 did all those years ago.I just messaged them and they wouldn't give me a date. They just said the COUNTDOWN TO BIG BROTHER 2025 meant something. Whatever that means?
Someone in the comments says their video is included in it, so must be real.Do we think these audition videos are from applicants that are still in the running or the ones that aren’t and just doing this as a little campaign for the show and the “real” people we’re getting?

I mean if they’re posting the auditions themselves publicly to see viewer reaction to some of these applicants I think it’s allowed for them to hype themselves up right? HahaYeah some person with a blue TikTok also commented and said their video was in it and they had it posted all over their stories. But in the t&cs on applications it said you cant post anywhere you’re applied or you’ll be not accepted…
I can’t imagine the ones they post to YouTube/ instagram will actually get on though because i feel it would ruin the surprise of the housemates? Like I can go and google and look up these people if they’re sharing their name and video prior to them getting in the house. Or potential other housemates can do this tooI mean if they’re posting the auditions themselves publicly to see viewer reaction to some of these applicants I think it’s allowed for them to hype themselves up right?

Here’s hoping the live stream is uncensored

It's so important though! It can absolutely be censored but there's so much to learn about housemates through their 18+ stories and antics
True, it only referred to 2025, and wasn't even definitive on that.I wouldn’t say it’s a never say never though. They can’t do everything for a short run IMO

Honestly for as much as I thought Uncut was essential I’ll take the return of the live feeds over it any day. Also as @matts bb has said for a short run I’m not that bothered by it. Also agree with BB’s decision not to upload old Uncut episodes. Sounds like they might have had some pushback from former HM’s.It's so important though!
