Well, I just heard Gerry tell Lori that he used to be an actor. Yesterday he told Eric, I believe, that he hadn't gone thru the normal application process but BB had contacted HIM. Eric (I think it was Eric, possibly Roddy), also said that he had NOT gone thru the normal application/audition process but BB contacted him first as well.

This is looking more and more like last year when everybody was in show business and they all had agents BEFORE going into the house.

A total bunch of wannabes! I think a lot of them think that they're going to be 'famous' after the show and when approached by agents (cause that's what they do) figure they'd better sign with one beforehand. Have you seen ANY of last years houseguests in anything, other than Mike being on Yes, Dear? They are not 'actor' material and this year is no exception. None of them have what it takes.

Geez, I gotta get some work done!!! LOL!!

Its hard to take people who are actors seriously. I have to say once I heard he was an actor, his tears today as he talked about his students became suspect. I cant say I believe him.

If it's true that BB came to them first instead of them coming to BB first, doesn't that make each of the 6,000+ applications/auditions a BIG FRAUD?

I think Josh said he was bartending and BB came to him. I could be wrong, but one of the guys did say BB came to him and he hadn't applied yet.

Why is it that BB hasnt had a hispanic? Every year they go out of their way to have the older player, the gay man lots of pretty white men and women but never a hispanic.

I was thinking that last night too. I was also thinking that a Hindi Indian-American woman would be interesting, a huge subculture in NYC. Puerto Rican as well.

I think these reality show's are getting more into the rating of their show's by putting your every day people on these shows (i.e.-buff/beautiful/gay/obnoxious/people with accents that get on peoples nerves/black and white's) instead of really making it very diverse by putting complete opposite (in a human way, not social way) people together. I have to admit, it is interesting to watch people that I would normally hang out with at a bar rather than people I would hang out with at an airport. Just my opinion..but for them, it make's the $$. :)

Those of other ethnic backrounds must have more scruples than use trashy white folk....for they probably don't even apply.

Wasn't the chubby pretty girl from BB2 that Shannon yelled at for smoking, who had a Black boyfriend, and who was kicked out first last time, a Hispanic?

autumn???? I dont know was she hispanic? I thought she was african american. I could be wrong.

I think Autumn was hispanic, I'm not sure though. For the record, I think it would be wonderful to put ethnically diverse people on the show, but I think the show just see's it all as dollar signs. Although this year they went for sex appeal it looks like, most of these people look really good. Last year they looked good too, but were more average looking. Hardy was toooooo hot for tv though ;)

The first year was the best... they all seemed to be actual "real" people, not actors or showbiz wannabees (which the exception of maybe Jamie) But isn't "real" people what a "reality show is suppose to be about?

Jesse, I'm guessing that Josh is a buddy of Mike Boogie (BLECH). He told this rambling story a couple days ago about how he got drunk and called Belly's to talk to him and how when he called him back he wasn't there so he never spoke to him. Josh had that look and tone of someone telling a lie.

Then I think it was yesterday he said something that Mike told him. So if he never spoke to him, when or how did he say it? OH what a tangled web we weave....

And Amac, I think you have an excellent point. But if this is true I'm sure before the year is out E! or Extra or one of those will have a field day with the story. Another of Arnie's ploys probably. I'm beginning to think he needs the boot next year big time. Problem is CBS has never quite understood how to make this show work, which is a damn shame for us addicts.

Good info Lurk . . . we should get the TVCH Angels to visit Belly and ask if Josh was known to hang around there.

Someone just posted on Joker's board that Lisa was a temptress on Temptation Island . . . that she was one of the first kicked off because one of the contestants felt her boy friend would be too attracted to her.

Yep, Josh just announced Lisa was on Ricki Lake: "Desperate and Dateless on New Year's."

The pics wouldn't load for me. Did they show that Lisa was or was not one of the singles on the show? Thanks.

I can't find her on there...The Lisa that they have listed as a bartender from L.A. looks nothing like "our" Lisa.

But...there were two "Temptation Islands". Maybe she was in the other one. Just a thought.

I think Cinder posted the "Temptation Island" link to prove that the Lisa on BB3 is NOT the Lisa who was on "Temptation Island".

I could be wrong though...

I don't think its really a big deal that they want to get into acting (or already are). They are still people and living their lives.

I am not sure if it is her. It is a blonde. I did not watch the first episode of Temptation Island. On TI2 there was no Lisa on the website.
