Tryout for CBS Big Brother 2018 / 2019 Seasons – New Open Calls Announced Nationwide

Reality show Big Brother is looking for contestants coast to coast.

The show will be holding open auditions in various cities nationwide this spring. States that Big Brother casting will be coming to include cities in the states of South Carolina, Oregon, Oklahoma, Michigan, Kentucky and others. For people who would love to try out for Big Brother but do not live in or near the cities mentioned below, your chances are not lost. Big Brother is also accepting online video auditions for the upcoming seasons.

Big Brother” is one of the longest running reality shows on TV.  The show first aired in 1999 and has been going strong for  almost 2 decades now.  Big Brother  is now looking for people to cast for upcoming seasons.

The show is seeking an entirely new group of strangers to share the house, actually, the house is built on a CBS soundstage.  Big Brother features a group of young adults who live together under one roof while being watched on camera 24 / 7. The competition reality show records their every move and every week, someone will get voted out of the house. The “house guests” are cut off from the world while the show films.  The group of house guests is completely isolated from everyone and everything outside of the house. The group has no contact with the outside world at all, no phone, no TV, no Internet and the only people they interact with are the other participants of the show. So why do this? Easy answer… The winner gets a half million dollars!

    I am a huge fan of Big Brother, been watching since the second season. I was diagnosed with rMultiple Sclerosis when I was 18. I was recruited., and would have played for a college or a junior college, or walked on, but after the diagnosis I choose not to.
    I was president on Sigma Chi, at UNLV.
    I’m 39, Doing well with ms, still walking. Ha

      Yes, the information for online video auditions is listed on this page.

    Do I need to bring anything for the casting of Big Brother? Planning on going to the Chicago open casting call.

    1. erica

      I believe they will put you on video at the audition but it is always a good idea to bring your ID as well as a photo (if you have one.)

    I’m Monics Nwokeocha from Nigeria. The online audition page is not opening. Please rectify it. I would like to be a part of the show.

    1. erica

      I believe that the Big Brother Tryouts listed on this page are only in the US. They are open casting calls that you attend in order to be considered.
