Big Brother 17 Houseguest Bio: Becky Burgess

June 16, 2015

Age: 26
Hometown: Denver, Colorado
Current City: Denver, Colorado
Occupation: Retail manager

Three adjectives that describe you: Competitive, spontaneous, and happy.

Favorite Activities: Weight lifting, hiking, running, and soccer. Also, I am very crafty/creative and enjoy painting, scrapbooking, and sewing.

What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house: I feel that it will be hard from weeks 6-12. When it really sinks in that you have not seen your family, left the house, or talked to a new person. Seems like you can get cabin fever.

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most: Brendon from Season 12. He was relatable, smart, attractive, and fit! He was not too radical in any behavior and I feel that made him a strong competitor

What are you afraid of: Snakes. I hate those legless bastards.

Finish this sentence: My life’s motto is… You will never know your limits unless you push yourself to them.

What would you take into the house and why: My slippers since I can't go a morning without them and my Kindle because I love to read and it sure would help with plotting in the house.

On the outside, Becky is the "All American" girl next door who the men will fall in love with and the girls will want to befriend, but inside she's a strategic and aggressive competitor they should fear. Having grown up in Denver, she's always been athletic and outdoorsy. She's not afraid to get dirty and has been known to out-climb her dates while hiking 14,000-foot mountains in Colorado. She knows her looks give her an edge in life but doesn't rely on them because she's the total package.
