List of Big Brother 2009 housemates (UK)

The following is a list of participants from the 2009 series of Big Brother UK, sixteen of whom entered the programme during the live launch broadcast. The contestants were not accorded the status of housemate until satisfactorily completing a set task, or following a public vote on Day 4. Ten of the contestants were successful in gaining housemate status through a number of tasks, leaving the other six facing a public vote to decide which five of them would also become housemates. Beinazir received the fewest votes and was evicted. An additional five housemates entered the Big Brother House on Day 44.^[1] On Day 56, Noirin's ex-boyfriend Isaac entered the house. On 4 September 2009, Sophie Reade was crowned the Winner of this series with 74.4% of the final vote.

Angel

Angel McKenzie (born Elena Chebotareva^[2] on 10 June 1978) is a professional boxer and artist from Moscow, Russia.^[3] A music performer in her homeland, she left in 1997 and now lives in South London where she runs a keep-fit class.^[4] She is the adoptive daughter of former British and European light welterweight boxing champion, Clinton McKenzie.^[2][5] She was made a housemate as the result of a public vote on Day 4. She kept her birthday a secret from her fellow housemates, celebrating it alone in the Diary Room. On Day 21, in a special live nominations show, she was nominated for the first time. On Day 23, became the fourth housemate to be evicted with 81% of the public vote.^[6] Angel later appeared in the first episode of game show Red or Black? on 3 September 2011, where she finished as a runner-up.^[7]

Bea

Rebecca "Bea" Hamill (born 28 September 1984) is a recruitment consultant from Bristol who describes herself as a "bohemian" and scatty although she received the highest IQ score of all the housemates. She is the daughter and heiress to a multi-millionaire mining tycoon and attended the prestigious posh girls' school Cheltenham Ladies College before being expelled. She later joined a performance art group and lived on a bus in Worcestershire touring festivals before moving to Ibiza to study yoga. She has a first class masters degree in clinical psychology and hopes to become a sex therapist. She entered the House on Day 24 with four other new housemates. Alongside them she was tasked with ensuring that Noirin and Halfwit received the most nominations but refused to participate claiming it went against her morals. At first Bea was very popular with the public and quickly became bookies favourite to win for putting Noirin in her place and for standing up to Kenneth Tong who had made threatening remarks towards her. However later in the show after Noirin was evicted Bea became the most hated female housemate of the series due to her hosile reaction to fellow housemate Freddie Fisher who claimed to have fallen in love with her. Viewers reported that Bea had led Freddie on and was only interested in him for his money, however it later emerged that Bea is is heiress to one of Britian's wealthiest families a fact that she did not mention during her time on Big Brother and has refused to comment on since her eviction. She was labelled the biggest bitch of the series after Freddie "Halfwit" appeared to have a panic attack following Bea's decision to move beds and sleep separately from him. Despite being strongly disliked by the public, Bea appeared to be very popular with her fellow housemates and did not receive any nominations however she automatically faced the public vote after Big Brother punished housemates for breaking house rules. She was evicted on Day 79, in week twelve just one week before the final to boos that Davina described as 'deafening'. ^[8]

Beinazir

Beinazir Lasharie is a study support assistant from Pakistan.^[3] Her family, after receiving death threats due to their support of former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto were given asylum in the United Kingdom when she was a year old.^[4] On Day 4, Beinazir did not gain full housemate status by public vote and became the first evictee.^[9] There was no crowd present as she left the House and she was escorted from the premises in a red Routemaster Bus.^[9]

He was born in South London, but brought up by his mother in Florida, United States.^[10] He moved back to live with his father, after his mother was involved in a car accident.^[11] He became a housemate after winning the biscuit dunking task on Day 3. On Day 12, Cairon received four nominations by his fellow housemates which was just enough to be up for eviction against Freddie. On Day 16, he became the third evictee with 73.16% of the vote. Cairon is also a rap artist.^[12]

Charlie

Charles Andrew "Charlie" Drummond is a 22 year-old Jobcentre customer service advisor from Cleadon.^[4] He was Mr Gay Newcastle 2007 and was a runner up for Mr Gay UK.^[10] He became a housemate for successfully walking barefoot on broken sugar glass, believing it to be real glass. On Day 33, Big Brother told Charlie that he had to remain silent until midnight or automatically face the public vote as a punishment for discussing nominations. He failed to keep quiet and therefore faced eviction along with Dogface, Halfwit, Kris and Marcus. Kris was evicted. On day 48, Charlie broke the rules regarding nominations again, along with 10 other housemates and every housemate in the house at the time faced the public vote (apart from Lisa and Rodrigo). He finished in 4th place. Charlie had a big argument one day regarding David, continually saying that he was plotting and scheming all of the time.

David

David Ramsden (born 2 September 1980) is a clothing recycler from Dewsbury, near Leeds in West Yorkshire. He entered the House on Day 44 with four other new housemates. With them he was tasked with ensuring that Noirin and Halfwit received the most nominations, but the new housemates failed their task and faced the public vote, though the eviction was ultimately cancelled. On Days 60-63, David was the victim of an ongoing argument in which he was accused of being a thief and a bully after Bea accused him of stealing butter. On Day 63, after a heated argument, Marcus said to David that he "punked him out" leading David to believe that Marcus was threatening him. David was later informed by Big Brother that he had misinterpreted Marcus's statement. On Day 91, David celebrated his 29th birthday, and he received a birthday message from fashion designer Vivienne Westwood, who he claims is his hero. David has also been on UK television show Golden Balls. He finished 3rd.

He gained significant public support through his victim status, most notably due to his failed attempts at seducing fellow contestant Bea Hamill.

She entered on Day 44, and was given a secret mission on which she had to brief her fellow new housemates, it involved ensuring that Noirin and Halfwit were nominated. The task was failed, resulting in her nomination along with the other new housemates. On Day 59, she was named the 'Most Entertaining Housemate' by Big Brother. As part of a shopping task on Day 62, she had to dress up as Alice (Alice in Wonderland) and drink a bottle of liquid, find a key in a cake and produce some real tears. Hira took five hours to eat her way through the cake until Big Brother informed her that she could use her face or head to break the enormous cake. In week ten it was announced that all housemates would face the public vote due to Siavash and Marcus breaking the nomination rules. In a change to the usual format, it was announced that this week's vote would be a vote to save rather than to evict, on Day 65 Hira became the ninth person to be evicted with 5.65% of the public vote.

He famously advised hippie contestant Bea Hamill that she needed to find herself a "man like him to look after her properly" however it was later revealed that Bea's personal fortune dwarfs his own. He entered the house on Day 44, minutes before his girlfriend Karly was evicted. Alongside his fellow new housemates, he had to ensure that both Noirin and Halfwit were nominated for eviction but the new housemates failed their task so faced the public vote. Kenneth blamed fellow housemate Bea Hamill for the task's failure as she had refused to participate on "moral grounds." Following an arguement between the pair, Kenneth was warned by Big Brother for language that "could be perceived as threatening" when he said he would "pay someone to deal with her".^[22] On Day 50, Kenneth fled the house via the rooftop with Marcus' assistance. As a result, the eviction for week eight was cancelled. In 2011 Kenneth became the subject of controversy across the world after advertising a slimming pill over Twitter, using offensive and disruptive statements to persuade young girls to endorse a 'controlled anorexia' scheme to become a size zero. He was blasted by numerous celebrities, including Rihanna, Katy Perry, Sophia Bush, Simon Cowell and Rochelle Wiseman before he admitted to hoaxing the scandal as a result of a bet between friends.

She had to do this every day until further notice. On Day 10, Noirin asked Big Brother's permission to wash the ink from her face. When told she would be punished if she removed the moustache and glasses she proposed to protest with a hunger strike, sparking a heated argument between Marcus and Lisa. On Day 18, thanks to Halfwit's birthday gift, Noirin was released from her daily obligation to draw on her face. On Day 21, Angel caused offence by saying Noirin looked three months pregnant and in doing so provided six housemates with a reason for nominating her.^[27][28] On Day 58, Noirin was evicted from the Big Brother house with 60.0% of the public vote after being nominated by her fellow housemates for eviction.
