Hundreds Show For 'Big Brother' Casting Call In Philadelphia

By Tim Jimenez

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - Big Brother on CBS is getting ready for Season 15; casting director Christopher Catalano talks about what his eye is on.

"Looking for who wants to compete for $500,000 and compete in their own way. Big personalities are number one though. We want to entertain people," said Catalano.

And we went to the people, standing in the cold, confidence peaking.

"I am bossy, loud, short, fun-sized and I just think I would make for some great TV," said one hopeful person.

"A lot of people say I'm the nicest person they've ever met. You know, I'll be nice to your face and stab you right in the back when I have to when you no longer fit into what I need," said another.

"I can be sassy. I mean, everyone's got a little sass in them," another explained.

There were some concerns of living in a house with no access to the outside world and cameras on 24/7.

"As long as I can use the bathroom in peace and I can get my haircut. That's going to be my main problem. Who's going to cut my hair?" one person worried.

Casting for the show takes place through May.
