Big Brother 17 Houseguest Bio: James Huling

June 16, 2015

Age: 31
Hometown: Sumter, South Carolina
Current City: Wichita Falls, Texas
Occupation: Retail associate

Three adjectives that describe you: Fun, unique, and diverse.

Favorite Activities: Anything fun: hiking, horseback riding, mudding, skeet shooting, fishing, camping, hanging out with friends, and riding the rivers at night catching some monsters.

What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house: Leaving everyone behind, but I’ve always been on-the-go through the military, so I guess it won’t be too bad.

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most: I have to say Zack Attack and Victoria because they both seem like they are loyal.

What are you afraid of: I’d have to say I’m afraid of sharks and anything that is in the water that can hurt me. I hate spiders, too. They just look really weird.

Finish this sentence: My life’s motto is… Yolo, ball out till you fall out, no regrets!

What would you take into the house and why: Cell phone, of course, because it’s my best friend, LOL! Also, my cat Gizmo, because he is awesome, and my Taylor Swift cut out.

James spent the first part of his life being raised in a boys’ home in South Carolina after his mother passed away from cancer and his father was unable to care for him. In his early teens, he was adopted by a Caucasian family and has called them mom and dad since. James loves his southern roots and served six years in the armed forces.
