'Big Brother' announces contestants, 'Double Trouble' twist

It's officially the heart of summer when we have the "Big Brother" contestants. While we have the identities of the eight NEW houseguests, we are going to have to wait for the houseguests involved in the twist.

This summer's twist, "Double Trouble," will feature the return of "dynamic duos" from past "Big Brother" seasons. The return of these former houseguests will immediately impact the way the game will be played this summer. 

The identities of the returning "Duos" will be revealed during the premiere episode on July 7, but right now CBS has a poll up that includes Will/Mike Boogie, Jeff/Jordan and Evel Dick/Danielle. Seriously, are these the only choices? Ugh. Below are the eight newbies who will spend the summer playing alongside the veterans in the new season of "Big Brother" and check out our photo gallery for all the glossy pictures so far.
