‘Big Brother’
Julie Chen will still be hosting “Big Brother” Season 20 next summer. CBS

The application for “Big Brother” Season 20 is now open!

According to the official casting website, there are four steps that need to be done to process an application. The first step is to make a short video and pre-record it before submitting it on the site. In the short clip, you need to state your name and reveal an interesting detail about yourself that may encourage Kassting Inc. to recruit you.

After completing the video requirement, make sure to have a recent photo because this needs to be submitted during the application. An online application form also needs to be filled out completely and honestly, and this will be submitted together with the photo.

Those who will make it past the first screening will be contacted by the casting agency via e-mail. Selected applicants will be interviewed by the producers of “Big Brother,” but it is necessary to note that all travel expenses will be paid for by the prospective houseguest.

The schedule for the semi-final and final interview, as well as the location and time, will be given to the applicant beforehand. All schedules are final and may not be changed unless otherwise requested by the producers of the show.

All of the houseguests who will be selected to participate in “Big Brother” Season 20 should be at least 21 years old and must be willing to live in the Los Angeles house for at least 100 days. All interactions and events will be recorded while inside the house for 20 hours a day and seven days a week.

The winner of “Big Brother” Season 20 will still bring home the $500,000 grand prize unless changed by the producers of the show. The runner-up will win $50,000. The houseguests will be given a weekly stipend throughout the duration of their stay in “Big Brother.” But this amount will only be given to the houseguest after the season has wrapped up.

Only citizens of the United States are allowed to apply. And anyone who is running for public office is not qualified to participate in the show. Other information may be viewed online.

“Big Brother” Season 20 will premiere on CBS next summer.
