Who are the Texas contestants on Big Brother 28?
Austin-based Jumbotron engineer Barrett Pfeiffer and Dallas supply chain management analyst Chuk Anyanwu are representing Texas in the new season. Both contestants are 27 years old.
Pfeiffer, who stands 6-foot-6, has positioned himself as a strategic player. On his personal Instagram account, he characterized himself as “giggly, charming, spicy” and noted his intention to use the fact that others may underestimate him to his advantage. He explicitly stated, “I’m not actually a caterpillar, I am a snake,” hinting at a deceptive gameplay style.
Anyanwu is a first-generation immigrant who is banking on his interpersonal skills. He told his social media followers he possesses an “insane social game” and believes he has the ability to connect with anyone. Regarding his entry into the house, Anyanwu noted, “There’s one end, where there’s so much money I can win, and there’s a whole other end where I am about to be in a house with insane people.”
