Housemate Hunt 2014

Ok thanks heaps for that Cliff :) I appreciate it. Just 1 quick question, did the Mother and Daughter pair audition individually or as a duo? Because I thought friends and family couldn't audition together?

It's all to do with the "nominate a mate".. that's why this year the rules HAVE changed..
right from the moment you walk into register for your auditions.. they stick all friends and family or the "nominated mate".. together
So the duo's, couples and groups of people have been registered together and go into the audition rounds as a pairing.
 
The lesbian is in that photo... She's in the white shirt and black jumper, she'd make a great hm... The chick in the onesie I can't remember if she did or not make it through,
Oh ok thank you. They do not look like they were chosen solely on looks which is a positive I guess. Hopefully the producers select some housemates who break the mould this year.[DOUBLEPOST=1397395698][/DOUBLEPOST]

I did see one girl go through to round 2 who may have had an awesome personality to back things up, but she was so pretty it's hard to imagine she wasn't chosen on looks alone. Really I have a bit of a crush on her and I know literally nothing about her.

Haha yeah true. I am sure they will still be looking for the token attractive people. Attractive people can still be unique characters and have entertaining personalities though. Tahan for example is one of the most beautiful girls ever casted on Big Brother but she had a personality as well.

Yes, very true on all accounts. I guess they do need people who are telegenic, which is not exactly the same as attractive but they tend to go together. Tahan ticked every box for a housemate, she was really well cast.

Yeah I would love to see some completely different housemates this year though who you would look at on the street and think "They would never make it on Big Brother". I think the only housemate from last year who would fit that mould would be Ben.
 
Brisbane was interesting.
By the end of Saturday the gays were basically no longer getting through, they seemed to have had enough of them no matter how entertaining they were. Interesting fast tracked applicants., mixure of short, tall, fat, middle aged, even person in a wheel chair and a Transman, I only know the Transman didn't make it through. One of the round one groups they saw took all girls, pretty girls at that, over heard one of them say she was a cheerleader.
Friends that went on that day weren't particularly that impressed.
Other people I spoke with on Sunday reported it as a Graveyard. Absolute graveyard.
They were there early in the day, spotted a gay couple go through to round 2, unsure if they made it any further, everyone seemed to love them though.
Older louder people who I'd heard where getting favoured on Saturday were being white washed on Sunday.
Heard more than one account of an entire round 2 group not being asked to continue.
Goss I heard on Fast tracks and nominate a mate was that they weren't that useful.
Nominate a mate just meant that person got a bulk email and asked to apply.
If they didn't apply and they liked them they were contacted and personally asked to submit an application.
But still heard people who did that after personally being asked and then not getting a fast track.
Applications are being read all the time, one person applied on the wednesday before, got their fast track on the Saturday, never went past round 2.
Both days people are being asked if you are travelling together and are here with family or friends please stay together and you will audition in the same group.

They said that both days - this year they are highly emphasizing on couples - friends, brothers and sisters, mum and daughter etc...

I think the whole fast track thing has backfired on them. They might be using them just to get the numbers of applicants turning up, but in turn there will be a lot of people not bothering to turn up based on not receiving one.

Remember tho they only really need 15 or so people in the end and have probably seen 10,000

Yeah exactly, they don't actually NEED to have this housemate hunt, they do it as a means of promoting the program and engaging their audience. As long as they can fill a room, put some ex contestants in front of a crowd and fire up the social media channels with some pictures of people auditioning it doesn't matter if they have 10,000 or 200 people, you're right, they only need 15.
 
Another idiot advertising that they got to round 3 today on Facebook. Some chick named Tiki Koffins.
Do the producers not care about secrecy anymore?
 
Has it been deleted? I can't seem to find it, but I want to - this sounds amusing.

Unfortunately... And she's deleted anything related to BB off her page... Fortunately I screen capped the important stuff and sent a copy to the Lil Sis page and Alex M on Twitter...

Basically the bitch said she only auditioned for the experience... I told her that her hopes of ever being cast on the show were over as they tend to look upon this kind of thing seriously... And that any shaming she's getting is her own fault because if she had actually made it as far as she says she's been warned several times about it... She got one of her little friends to chime in and say that she was excited and made a mistake... Then she baleted everything and blocked me...

Damn! Fair enough on her part I guess, but I'm glad you called her on it.
