Big Brother (2016-2025)

Mel Tracina is on the cover of TV Week this week.

She offered a few clues about this year’s housemates

“We have a self-confessed bogan,” Mel reveals.

“There’s a housemate who claims to have never been kissed. Someone who’s obsessed with Susan Boyle and has a range of budgie smugglers. It’s always a range of different Aussies, all with different quirks.”

“NO Apple Pay / mobile payment on site!” - does that mean they take your phone off you?

Most likely so that nothing gets leaked before it airs on TV.

Is it me or is this part very disingenuous on the writer’s behalf:

The recently released promotional video for the new season became a talking point of its own after viewers questioned whether Mel’s singing voice had been generated by AI.

I don’t recall people saying her singing voice was AI, but everyone railed on the backdrops of the promo looking extremely AI and some saying the dancers were AI.

Bring the Meta glasses or Kmart ones

Yeah everyone loves the pervert specs

Mel already had an insta clip showing she was actually singing. And I think majority of it was done using green screen and cgi with some ai probably

There were also people questioning whether it was Mel’s real voice which is why she posted the behind scenes video on her Insta.

Yeah no phones for launch episode but it’s fine for other live shows.

It’s definitely a bucket list thing for me to go to a BB filming - keen!

There was a promo during an ad break for Celebrity Traitors UK last night, in which the voices of some of this year’s housemates were heard for the first time.

I thought I would open up the BB season with chatting to the two exec producers. I have also chatted to Mike Goldman but will publish Monday. I was not available when Mel was doing interviews but I will be catching up with her throughout the BB run. The sound for this one is not as good as my podcast mic failed 2 mins before chatting.

Tickets for Thursday 29th? Aren’t Monday, Wednesday and Sunday the live show days?
