Bolingbrook Man Stars in CBS Reality Show Big Brother

Boingbrook man stars in Big Brother, CBS' hit reality show.

Have you heard of the CBS show Big Brother?  It is a CBS reality show that runs in the summer and season 13 stars one of our own Bolingbrook residents: Keith Henderson!

Keith is a human resource manager with strong ties to his church and will join 13 others in a house at an undisclosed location, where they play the social game of the summer to win $500,000. Hopefully Keith can use his charms on his fellow house guests to stay in the house and keep us entertained for the summer.

If you are a Big Brother fan, you know every season has its own twists to the rules. Season 13 proves to be no different.

Julie Chen is the host who will reveal the rule twists as the season unveils.  The first twist presented is that each player is to play with a partner. The first eight players introduced were forced to pick a partner within the first few minutes of the show, only to be joined by six former players that have been coupled to play this game.   

Those famous couples from previous seasons include the annoying laugh of Rachel and her newly betrothed Brandon (Season 12); Evel Dick and his estranged daughter, Daniele (Season 8); and the dating couple of Jeff and Jordan (Season 11).

Our own Keith picked Porsche as his partner, a VIP waitress and not too hard on the eyes. Is he playing a strategic game by picking her?  Or is he just distracted by her obvious assets to the game?  Hmmmm ….

The next twist presented is that anyone whose team member is voted out in the first four weeks is guaranteed a spot in the top 10. That will make the voting very strategic and interesting. Keith was smart enough to align himself with four others  and make plans to make sure their partners are evicted so that they can further themselves in this game. They call themselves “The Regulators” and at this point seem to have a good plan in place.

It seems that the veteran players are going to go after all the newbies, as Rachel won the Head of Household competition and ended up nominating our own Keith and his partner Porsche for eviction. They will have the opportunity to play for the Power of Veto to hopefully take themselves off the chopping block so a new couple can be put in their place for voting.   

Stay tuned to see if Keith can keep his position in this game …
