‘Big Brother 28’ Cast Revealed: ‘Drag Race’ Star Jason De Puy, MMA Fighter Kamuela ‘Kamu’ Kirk and More
The cast of “Big Brother” Season 28 has been revealed, and the 14 houseguests include a “RuPaul’s Drag Race” all star and MMA fighter.
Ahead of today’s announcement, there was heavy speculation of returning players, and two surprise players have yet to be revealed. “Big Brother” premieres Thursday, July 9, with a 90-minute premiere starting at 8 p.m. ET/PT. The 24/7 live feeds will launch the next day on Paramount+, Pluto and, for the first time, YouTube for limited periods.
This season features a “Time Trip” twist, with rooms themed after decades like the ’80s and Y2K. “Big Brother: Unlocked,” returning Friday, July 10 at 8-9 p.m. ET/PT, will feature host Jerry O’Connell alongside Season 16 winner Derrick Levasseur and Season 24 winner Taylor Hale.
