Ok,Here is the thoughts behind this thread. We all know,that HG's not only lie about who they are INSIDE the house,but a lot of the time,we as an audience,do not know who these people really are,or what they really do in Life. This comes up a lot in other threads,and I think sometimes we don't want to go off the course and discuss it.So,If all are agreed,this is an excellent place to put those "Theories",post links to their home pages or relevant info. I'll start,I know we have all made observations about Jeff in the kitchen.(promise this is NOT a Jeff fan club post,lol).. He does know his way around the kitchen.Which does not necessarily Make a big deal. But when he throws out things like "Fish should never smell fishy", "The Kiwi is very acidic,thats why it hurt your mouth",and various other comments. These are not usually common knowledge kind of things. Took me years of gluing myself to FOODtv to learn most of these things. So my theory is..he says he is in advertising sales. Could he own a restaurant? Or be an investor like Boogie? Just throwing stuff out there. And remember,this is about ALL of them,not just one particular HG. So put your theories,your evidence ,your thoughts here. Hope this thread is ok <changed type color as requested - jr>

Those are good observations. That could be why he's bonded so well with Jordan. She's a waitress. (you hot pink font has blinded me!!)

Mindeegap, he did say he had a buddy in the restaurant business. Perhaps this is how he knows all this info.

Jeff also knew what truffles are and how much they cost. Very good thoughts, Lori.

Lori, I thought the same thing....kinda sorta. When I see him in the kitchen or talking about food I thought...he's very chef-ie in the kitchen. Wonder if he's trained or just self taught and the I thought....hmmmmm wonder if he is a chef and some how met Boogie and Boogie got him onto the show.

Now, let's talk about Lydia. Rumor has it that she was Beatrice McCartney's nanny. There are some pictures with Beatrice that certainly look like Lydia's hand. Lydia talks about London and travelling a lot. If this is true, Lydia has run in some very interesting circles. And yet, she hasn't name dropped at all, and is even pretty low key in how she talks about her travels.

Oh,Bee I totally forgot about the truffles thing.. Good Catch! Also,the other night when he was defending his putting ice in his wine.I noticed he said "at the restaurant I always put ice in it" and then he really quickly countered with,almost in the same sentence "buddy of mine,he has a restaurant" ..So that REALLY got me thinking..

oh.WOW!! that would explain a lot! And also why she may no longer be a Nanny,with the divorce and all. And I always wondered why she was always talking about London and that she has friends there.I knew for her to go that often and know that much about it she had to be more than a tourist.

Those pictures of the hands do look very similar, so maybe that it Lydia. It did say that she had been a nanny for a very "high profile" couple. They would be pretty high profile...especially with all of the divorce proceedings a few years ago.

O.K.. based on the Myspace page,I clicked on the top friends,And when I clicked Donovan, In his pics,Jeff was all over the place. Don't know if they are brothers or just close friends. But apparently they run in the same circle always,because they are photographed together alot. at any rate,One of the shots,Jeff isnt in,but it is at Dolce. So that had me going Hmmmmmm

Lexie, I checked out the page, and it is definitely not the "Mellow Yellow" Donovan.

I checked out Jeff's myspace and that guy Donovan had an entry: "Donavon Jul 18 2009 2:40 AM Yo we are doing BIG Brother Jeff Schroeder Tuesday's at the Bar I work at. Any time Jeff gets in a fight, free round of shots.haha. Numbers Bar at 8745 Santa Monica Blvd in WeHo. Hit me up if you want to have some laughs and drinks while watching the show in two huge screen TV's." I checked it out with yahoo maps and there is in fact a bar called Numbers Bar & Restaurant http://numbersbarandrestaurant.com/ Here is a review from Yahoo local about this place... "Formerly located in the Sunset Boulevard space now occupied by North, this bar is located above the popular Normandie Room . This is a great place for men to meet one another with a wide range of ages. It's notorious as a pick-up spot where younger men are picked up by older men in this low-key, low-lit lounge. The decor is very retro Hollywood and there are great views of the city from here." Basically, it is a gay-friendly restaurant/bar in West Los Angeles on Santa Monica Blvd. Does Boogie have any connection to this place? Where is Dolce, anyways? Just looking at the website of this place, it does have that same feel of Dolce, a classy upper trendy lounge with an old Hollywood feel. As bar hopping goes, I don't know if these places would be on the same circuit, but wouldn't be surprised, they are going for the same ambiance. This may give us a theory as to why Jeff uses the f__ word. Maybe it is because he has some friends who are gay (like the friend who works at Numbers), and they throw around that word alot to talk to each other, kind of like a term of endearment, and Jeff picked it up and didn't see it as such a negative when used in that context? Or maybe Jeff is bi? On the myspace, he does state himself as straight. And this account has been around since at least last year, so it's not a fake.

Tc...I don't do MySpace, so I've got a question. When you say that Donovan had an entry, does that mean HE made the entry, or that someone made that entry on his page? This just sounds like a party that some gay guys that dig Jeff put together. There are actually a lot of BB watching parties around. So, what I'm wondering is if it's just some random person or is it Jeff's friend? ETA: Jeff does his thing in Chicago, not Hollywood, right?

Bee, don't mean to interrupt here, but the myspace that I listed above is Jeff's personal one and he has Donovan in his top friends which would mean they are friends and if you look in Donovans pictures, you see pictures of Jeff with him at Christmas and out on a boat doing some fishing. I thought the entry in question was Donavon letting Jeff know that he and friends get together at the bar he works and watch the show together and root for Jeff. Gay or not, I wouldn't know, not that it would matter, but Jeff's top two friends are both in CA and looks like they are legit and do some indie and short films. Looks like a fun group....and I am way to involved, yea Hope that helped.

Bee, I don't do myspace either, but I have seen pages before and know how they work basically. Donovan made the entry on Jeff's myspace as a comment. It is an assumption on my part that they've known each other since before the show, but he is part of his "top 8", and he has only 60 friends. There is an entry from Donovan from last year too, so it isn't like this guy is a bandwagon promoter or something. So not only did Jeff accept him as a friend, but he put him as one of his top friends. Probably someone he knew from the old days in chicago, but who moved out to Hollywood. Hasn't Jeff admitted that he has stayed in Los Angeles for a span of time? I remember hearing something about that? I may be wrong, who knows? Donovan is in Hollywood, and I'm guessing Jeff has been living out here for a little bit visiting? Anyone else remember Jeff talking about his living situation? Also, in the comments section, there is this guy called "T Marti", which is Tony Marti, and he uses the f__ word in the entry on Jeff's myspace: "T Marti Jan 12 2008 11:22 PM Your a half a f** and a internet p**n junkie!" [censored] Jeff is addicted to p**n, too!!! j/k this guy probably likes to make fun of jeff as a sign that they are friends. Also, another revelation, I think this tony marti is the MMA guy Jeff was talking about when he had the fight with Russ!! here is T marti's myspace, notice in his top 8, there is jeff! http://www.myspace.com/tmarti145 So Donovan isn't a random guy, at least not to Jeff, and I am still wondering about if Jeff does his thing always in Chicago, or if he hasn't visited Hollywood a time or 2 visiting friends, etc. Man, writing on this thread makes me feel like I'm working for TMZ or something!

I gotta admit it, this is an awesome angle for a thread Just getting a new perspective is refreshing, makes them all seem more human. Great idea, Lori!
