Big Brother 11 Facts and Rumors
Is Grodner CornerOffice?
Happy Sunday, BB Lovers!! 11 more days to go til the magic moment: the Premiere of Big Brother 11!!!
I gotta tell ya - I'm so psyched for the flashback machine on the feeds, I can't stand it. I'm already fantasizing about how I'm gonna use it for the Overnight Reports. :) That and the improvement to the display - with every room visible at the bottom of the screen, without being on the Quad. Yay, real!! :)
The Big Brother 11 rumors have been flying like wild for the past week. While we wait for the information moratorium on Media Day to expire at midnight tonight, let's take a look at some of them.
First Up: Sequester - When is it happening for the 12 new Big Brother HGs? Rumors are flying on this one too. According to some of the more trusted sources, Sequester is actually happening quite early this year: Today, Sunday, June 28th!
If this is accurate, and I believe it is, HG pics could and should be out as early as tomorrow...
I can't imagine why they're doing it so early this year, but there ya have it.
Next up - CornerOffice. As we all know, every season around this time, someone calling themselves CornerOffice drops some scarily accurate doozies over on RealityBBQ, and then this person disappears for the duration of the season. This season of Big Brother is no different.
Almost.
Doing a bit of digging, I just stumbled upon something that really caught my interest: TheWrongBull has posted that CornerOffice is actually Allison Grodner. It's even the title of his post: "Grodner Leaks BB11 Twist info while Posing as Blogger."
It's completely unsubstantiated, but it certainly makes sense. Who else has such access... and such loyalty?
- Big Brother executive producer Allison Grodner has leaked information regarding this seasons twist, while posing as a poster on a Big Brother related blog. Grodner, using the pseudonym CornerOffice, revealed the following spoiler:
Although uncredited on the aforementioned site, all of the CornerOffice postings originate on RealityBBQ:
- Theme throughout the house this year – “The Have’s and The Have-Not’s”
BB has cast people they believe represent some typical high school stereotypes. However, Big Brother will not be pairing them up. Once they enter the house, they will be told to form the cliques themselves – Big Brother will not force them together like Big Brother 9...
Once these cliques are formed, they will play as teams for a while, but they will eventually split off into individuals and play the game by themselves."
This is just a small excerpt from what CornerOffice/AllisonGrodner?! wrote on RealityBBQ. It's Spammy's scoop. Please go there to read it in full, if you haven't already. ;)
Next - Former HGs in the BB11 House?
The rumors are also flying about a former HG or 2 being in the house this year. I'm not sure what I think about this one, although I can say I've gotten definite confirmation on it from one source very much in the know and in no way related to one I think may actually be in there.
Apparently, Sheila posted on facebook that she'd be going away for 3 months... Hmmm... Backpacking in Indonesia or BB11 Bombshell House Mom?
I can't see them putting only one in though. Can you? Wouldn't it make more sense to have 2, and even it out to a nice round 14 HGs?
OK... Sometime late tonight or early in the morning, we'll have pics and video of the house, and quite possibly of all the HGs too. Hold on to your hats, dishers! :) It's so close, you can taste it.

Carolyn, you're back! Yay! I finally have someone else to talk to BB about again, lol. So let's break these down topic by topic then?
Early Sequester: Crazy! And to think that AG & Co. would give their employees the day off for 4th of July, lol! Hey this just means more days of crazy speculation fun fun times with my Dishers!
While on the topic of AG, we have this CornerOffice dish. I never thought AG was CO, but that would make sense, wouldn't it!?
I am excited to see how this whole twist turns out, but I hope the HG's make some alliances outside of their "clique" or their "clique"'s friends. It's gonna be very interesting to see how this all turns out.
Big Sheil in the Big Brother House again!? Oh jeez, lol. I am excited at the idea of a HG or 2 in the house this season, but if they are in the game competing, I think you could see an early exit from them. At least I know I'd be gunning for a former HG if I had the shot.
By the way, didn't BB10 have 13 HG's?? Maybe I'm incorrect, but I could have sworn they had 13.
Oh well, it's so awesome that the summer of "expect the unexpected" is almost back in full swing. Can't wait to spend the next few months with you.
Oh yea, and anyone else staying up for a few hours later tonite for possible info after the House/HG detail moratorium? Will the ban on info being leaked out end 12AM EST or PST?
Talk to ya's soon!!
~ Ryan ~
Ohhh YES! Please! Sheila! I love her!!
Thanks for the info :-D How exciting!!!
I HOPE that's not the twist... sounds pretty lame =/
I love it!!! We are almost here!!! I am so excited, however this day feels like it is dragging on forever!!!
When watching the newest commercial for BB Julie says...
"12 strangers 1 house... anything can happen.. Crazier twists with even more outrageous stunts."
I think all the rumors flying around is just a little bit to what is coming. I think this year is going to be full of twists.
Yes cannot wait! It sucks for me because I have to go to the hospital tomorrow and I have hernia surgery on Thursday. I have to stay there for a whole week because I am on blood thinners yada yada yada.But I get out next weekend, the my Birthday is on the 8th, then BB starts the next night!
CANNOT wait for this week to FLY by!
"The Have’s and The Have-Not’s”
Maybe there will be an even mixture of house guests who have, and have not been in the house before. Not just one or two? That'd make it harder for the ones who'd want to get rid of the "haves" quickly.
Oh I love this idea.
Hey Caro!
Ohhh, I CAN taste it! SO exciting!
Question, why, under the sidebar on the right under BB11 Quick News does it say Media Day is June 19? Is it supposed to say June 29?
(don't mind me, I am an ex-proofreader)
Hugs!!!
I can't help but look at ure Twitter posts Carolyn, but do you already have cast/house pics!? Please share!
~ Ryan ~
Thanks for the updates Carolyn!
Ya know, I don't really have an opinion yet about the twists...I'm just excited that BB11 is almost here!
I'm looking forward to the media day stuff to be released. I have to work in the morning...but I'm gonna try to sneak in to check on my breaks! LOL
OK, so I can't help but jump on different blogs right now cause I am waiting out the info to start flowing in about BB, but I just read this off of BSideBlog's Twitter Page: "big brother fans, press embargo is lifted at 6:00 AM PST tomorrow." Yay!
OK, so info aplenty starts 6AM PST...9 AM EST. I'm working! No! Nothing but blog blackouts at work! I guess I haveta wait till tomorrow afternoon for all the Dish! Oh well, I've waited so many months, I think I can do a few hours, lol.
Have a good one Dishers!

Is anyone watching Julie on Password tonight on CBS..
Ry - I swear I'm not keeping anything (like that) from you. :)
Patty - Not I... I'm kinda manic on the BB front at the moment.
Patti - Check the quickie updates now. Modified just for you... :)
Ilissa :) ditto.
Tyler - twists are lame as a rule. ;) they're just something to draw the newbies in... the real fans (like you and everyone here) know it's not what the game's about - at all.
Lindsay :) Hi honey!!! :)
mike - good luck with the surgery!!! excellent, timing, you! ;)
Ry - again - the gag may be lifted on *them* tomorrow, but the HGs are already in, so we could have more info before their gag even gets loosened.
Hi Carolyn...waiting for the 29th & the reveal!!!
Ohhh, it's so good to see so many familar names.
I immediately thought that CO was AG. But I'm not sure if I'm crazy about old HG returning. Especially Shiela. Not one of my favs, for sure. Also, just have to see how it plays out but I wish they wouldn't do the pairing up of people even if it is their choice. But, just have to patient & not speculate too much. It could be a good thing. (martha stewart/Gaytor)
Looking forward to more news & it's gonna be here before we know it.
So since the houseguests may get leaked soon I wanna post my own lil prediction. I just have a weird feeling about this one guy that was at the NYC auditions..... huge muscle juicebag type guy.... dark skinned... not much hair.... you would look at him and be like "woah im not messing with this dude".... then he opens his mouth.... hes the funniest most outgoing guy ever lol he was bench pressing all the girls on the line so they they could take pics... and heres the topping on the cake... hes gay. And we were all saying to him they have never had someone like him on Big Brother he would be perfect. I know for a fact he nailed his audition because the casting directors were all over him. So do not be surprised if you see him on there. I have a couple of other people in mind from the auditions too but I'll keep u updated if any of them made it when they release the names.
I kind of hope all of that is false. Save the past HG for the next all stars. It sounds like a repeat of nine and im highly disappointed if this is true...They could have done better with no twists at all. Last season was wonderful and it didnt have any.
Thanx for the info. I'm gonna lessen the exclamation points now and the multiple posts, a lil' bit too much now, lol.
~ Ryan ~
Oh this is such an excellent post. Let the leakage begin. I can't wait to see how it all comes together. Who is right and who is wrong about their speculations. I have a feeling that a lot of what I have read on here is right and it sounds like it's going to be a very interestink season.
Very interesting indeed!
Thanks Carolyn for all you do to keep us in the loop!
OK CornerOffice: Wow, that makes almost too much sense, but in a good way. Honestly, who else has the Corner Office in the corporate world than the CEO? Makes sense that AG would be "Corner Office".... remember the Michael J Fox move in in the 80's?
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Ilissa theory:
"The Have’s and The Have-Not’s”
"guests who have, and have not been in the house before".
OMG, good thinkin' Ilissa!!!!
If Sheila's in there, wouldn't that mean ED (Evel Dick) would be in there too? Not that they were on the same season, but if I think of Sheila or Janelle, I automatically associate them with ED. Pure word assocation.
In my mind, that would absolutely MAKE the season b/c I loved the entire season with Dick and Danielle. Out of the past 10, the All Stars and the Donato season are my fav's. The All Stars got me re-invigorated, and Donato's got me re-interested.
Patty, This has nothing to do with BB, but couldn't figure how to send to you specifically:
OMG, how cute is your dog!!! Is that a Yorkie? I used to have a Yorkie growing up, and we called her Muffin. She was the best..... and she loved the water. When my parents got divorced, we gave her to the Vet's assistant who had small kids. They LOVED her, and went to the MN lakes regularly, and 'Muffin" loved being on the beach and boat with them. Yorkie is such a great breed. We loved her!!!
Hurray - it's heating up!!!
Ry - I'm a west-coaster so I'll be looking around until after midnight tonight for any little snipettes that may break loose.
Gosh - if Sheila comes back, please let the poor woman have her tylenol p.ms. this time!
Mike - good luck! And time will fly by, it always does. We'll see you on your birthday!
Oh my, all the juicy tidbits starting to spill out!!!! I'm so excited!!!! (I just can't hide it, I'm about to lose control, and I think I like it-----God bless the Pointer Sisters!!! :) )
We're right on the cusp!! A little over a week and I'm not leaving this house for 3 months! heheheh!!!!
Starting my checklist:
1. Live Feeds (purchased thru Caro)
2. BBDish! site added as favorite & homepage
3. 100 pounds of cat food bought and stored
4. Freezer filled to capacity with Lean Cuisine's
5. Chinese and Pizza Delivery programmed into speed dial.
6. Wine cellar (pantry) stocked with cheap wine (for this cheap date moi)
7. Most recent photo of me e-mailed to family and friends, so they remember what I look like
Anything else I need??? Hmmm!!
I would LOVE to see Sheila back in the house!!!!
And AG the BB leak????? Whoa!!!! What a scoop if it's true!!!
Thanks for keeping us all in the know!!!
blue waves and blows kissies to everyone!!!!
*singing*
I'm so excited,
And I just can't hide it.
And I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know I want you.
Krista in Az, Yes my dog is a yokie his name is Rocco, he not a tea cup, he is the most loving dog any one would ever want and very smart, he loves chasing squirrels...
Carolyn how am I ever gonnna get to bed now knowing at any moment more leaks can happen..I dont know if I can handle Big She back in the house after hearing her all season long say I'm a 45 yr old single mother..If shes going away for 3 months what happened to her son Mickey why couldnt he dog sit.. If I had my pick of past season Hg it would be Evel D, Janelle, < but thats not happening since they will be doing chat in the feeds> I really cant think of anyone else I would want back, I just hope who ever if they do pick a past HG it will be someone fun, and smarter now then they were in their reguler season!
Maybe there will be a pats HG in the house..
There always is that kid in high school that keeps getting left back and never realy graduates.
I can't wait for tommorw's BB News..As always I appreciate Carolyn's dedication. I think Sheila's actually very entertaining so she would be a fun choice to return to the house. CanLt wait to see who the new cast is!
Carolyn, have you thought a stumble widget?
I would love it if that guy that JohnnyTremz was talking about actually becomes a HG. It's time for a good looking gay guy to get into the BB House already. (I mean seriously, the best we've got thus far is Steven and he was booted out so damn fast, lol) A guy like that could get real far in the house, plus, some shots of a guy like that in a towel wouldn't hurt AT ALL!
I really do want interesting players in Big Brother, but give me some eye candy already!!
~ Ryan ~
I'm still processing but wanted to say hi to all the old friends, and the one who claims to be my babymama, BlueX1969. (I'm still waiting for DNA results.)
Hello Caro! It's so nice to have you back where you belong. (I can sing too, Blue, and showtunes at that. Imagine that. :-p~ )
I might do my usual late night wrap up if I think of anything actually having to do with the show.
:o)
Hello Carolyn and fellow twishers and dishers.
OMG I can't wait for this season to start! Everyone thinks I'm crazy because BB & my BBDish peeps are all I talk about.
I'm crossing my fingers that I don't get fired from work by spending too much time on here during the day!
I've caught up with some of you over on Twitter and as for the rest, I'm glad to have the BBDish family back together again! :)
Carolyn, thank you for all you do. You are the best! Love ya!
Michelle
OK, so of course I see this lil bit of info when I check to see if CO has made any more posts, and he/SHE has! Apparently, the 4 "cliques" are: Jocks, Populars, Brainiacs & Outcasts!!
Oh jeez, so now the HG's, based on 1st impressions, will have to split each other up into these cliques, and that will become the teams for the season? Oh, there is just no end to the juicy, juicy news!
~ Ryan ~
Oh Carolyn you are making it more exciting!!!!
(-: Debi
Renny would be my first choice of a returning HG, of course...
But I would really like to see Sheila in the red leotard again lolol
I wouldn't mind seeing Keesha either.
I can't come up with any guys I'd like to see again, haha.
It's bout time to get used to the BB insomniac lifestyle!
Blue - your checklist got me super excited, hehehe
My F5 finger is getting a great workout tonight. By the time BB starts it should be in excellent shape.
:o)
Heading off to bed - almost 12:30 a.m. my time. Can't find anything out there. Even googled corneroffice.com - found office furniture!!!
Hopefully we'll have some tidbits in the morn.
I agree..Keesha is my fave houseguest and would love it if she would return to BB :)
so it would make sense to put 2 more HG in to make a good round 14 plus I was caught offguard when I read on my Facebook a post from BBHeavenLadies that there were 7 girls and 7 boys entering the house....of course that is the speculation of rumors and such we always get pre-season...but maybe it could be validated. hmmm....come'on July 9th
