Big Brother, the American version of the worldwide television show, features contestants (called houseguests) that compete against each other to be the last Big Brother house resident and win $500,000, later $750,000. The series first aired in 2000, and 27 seasons have been completed as of 2025. Big Brother contestants are chosen by the show’s producers through an application process that includes a videotape submission, semi-final interviews at select cities, and a final interview in Los Angeles.
