Big Brother 18 Cast First Impressions & BB18 Winner Predictions

Posted by Anthony Mango Wednesday, June 15, 2016
The 18th season of Big Brother is set to start on June 22, 2016 where another new group of houseguests from all sorts of different backgrounds and different personalities will compete for a chance to win $500,000. For the past few years, I've been making it a point to give my initial perspective on the cast members before the season has officially started, as well as my predictions for what's to come.

Keep in mind that I'm usually terrible about this, as it revolves around the most basic information out there, and the show revolves around twists that can change the game up at any time. Even when it comes to my favorites and those who I dislike, I tend to change my mind at different points when they prove me wrong one way or the other. Definitely don't place any bets in Las Vegas on what is down below—even when it comes to who I think the jerks and the people I'd be rooting for will end up being!

MY THOUGHTS / PREDICTIONS

My Favorites = Glenn, Paul, Paulie and Zakiyah

The Lovable One = I can see Paul being the fan favorite if he's as weird as he claims he is

The Villain = There's something about Michelle that makes me think she's going to piss viewers off, but I can't put my finger on it, particularly as she doesn't annoy me like that (yet?)

Biggest Physical Threats = Victor and Tiffany

Biggest Mental Threat = Michelle

Most Attractive = Natalie, Tiffany and Zakiyah (for my personal preferences)

The Showmance = Corey/Bronte, Natalie/Paulie, Zakiyah/Victor.

The Bromance = Paulie and Jozea

Most Annoying = Bronte

The Confrontational One = Natalie is going to get in her own way and create arguments even if she isn't necessarily acting like a diva like many others in the past, although that might happen as well.

The Crybaby = Bridgette

The Dumb Jock = Victor

The Weakest Link = Bronte or Bridgette for the overall game, but Glenn is going to do the worst in physical challenges

Winner Potentials = Jozea or Michelle

What throws this all even more for a loop is that there are four returning houseguests that have yet to be revealed. If they're big players like Vanessa (who I hope doesn't come back, but I fully expect her to) then that could be the biggest unknown. If they're more along the entertaining side of things like Zach Rance (who I do hope returns) then this could just be a fun ride.

Throughout the season, you can hit me up on Twitter @ToeKneeManGo to get my thoughts on Big Brother as it is happening and as I'm watching the live feeds.
