The returning housemates will be revealed during the July 7 premiere (9PM on CBS).

This season, the 'Big Brother' contestants will stay in a Venice Beach loft-inspired house. There will be a Frank Gehry-inspired bedroom, classic surfboards on the walls and original artwork. The house will also feature a Tarot Card Parlour, indoor chess park and something known as a "Popsicle Room." How much licking will there be in the "Popsicle Room"? Time will tell.

Meet the new contestants below.
