With BB9 only a few weeks away, the rumors are starting to fly about this seasons very secretive theme. First of all it seems like the theme has taken on a world of its own and that is secrets. Everyone has secrets obviously but CBS is keeping this season the most secretive yet. We know very little about the new “special winter edition” and know less about it’s cast. So far the only credible information we have is that BB9 starts on February 12th, Julie Chen is back as host, there is only one house and there will be 14 houseguests.

 Other than that we know basically nothing. People are also assuming that the “Dirty Little Secret” tune in the commercials means this will be a secret themed season once again. We don’t KNOW this for a fact but it does seem reliable that this will be the case. Now to go along with this theme there are several rumors flying around as to what the “secrets” could be. Here are a few and what I think about them.

One rumor that started lately is that Eric, Dick or both will be back in the house for BB9. Dick has since said this is false (of course he’d have to say that) but I doubt that would have him back anyway. Eric coming back is possible since well he didn’t really play for himself last season. Of course Eric has his own secret in the house so therefore that fits with the secret theme as well. I’d like to see Eric back…. eventually, but not now. It’s too soon and he’d have too big of a target to even make it worth him coming back again.

The 2nd big rumor is that all the houseguests will come in with some secret that they either have to hide from them others or the secrets will be exposed right away. One rumor is that a transsexual person will be in the house as well, one of the “secrets”. I’m not too sure on this one as we’ve had this rumor almost every season since season 6. It would obviously get ratings at some point and probably cause some controversy, but then again when hasn’t BB caused controversy.

I like the idea of everyone having some sort of secret they have to hide, but then again there are drawbacks. First of all when some find out that this is the “twist” they will probably want to quit. It would suck to have even one person quit, but maybe they hope that happens to shorten the run of the show. Another thing is that well, some secrets are obviously going to outweigh others, such as last seasons twist did. Jessica and Carol being enemies was basically a joke and had little impact on the game while as we saw Dick and Dani’s did. They have to make the show, and secrets, even or as close as possible. I don’t want one secret to be that they “stole from the grocery store” when another is they “murdered someone”. I mean come on, get us JUICY secrets for everyone. If that happens I’ll be satisfied.

Like I said above, nothing is really known for sure about BB9 yet, so take everything here with a grain of salt. All we can hope for is an amazing season for this winter and hopefully BB delivers!
