‘Celebrity Big Brother’ Season 3 Preview
After two successful seasons of “Celebrity Big Brother” in 2018 and 2019 — won by Marissa Jaret Winokur and Tamar Braxton — the super-speed version of the OG show is back with a new set of celebrities ready to be locked away for a month in pursuit of the $250,000 grand prize.
The cast is as follows:
- Reality star Cynthia Bailey, 54, from “The Real Housewives of Atlanta.”

- UFC champ Miesha Tate, 35, who retired in 2016 but later came out of retirement in 2021.
The cast will live together in the newly-outfitted “Big Brother” house, which is Swiss chalet-themed this year and looks to have gotten a spiffy makeover in the months since the last “Big Brother” season. Heavy got an exclusive first look at the common areas — the snowy patio, the bathroom, the full-sized sauna, and the workout space — which you can check out here.
The descriptions of those areas make it sound like the house is decked out to the nines:
Outside of the kitchen is a snowy patio, designed to allow for a relaxing rest, no matter the temperature or time of day. A gas fireplace and hot tub are waiting there to help the Houseguests unwind after a day of hitting the slopes.
But, the amenities don’t stop there, as the “Celebrity Big Brother” bathroom is a retreat in itself, with a full-sized sauna, complete with floor-to-ceiling cedar. Dark-green marble and flame-charred pine are on the walls. Gold fixtures and black ceramic sinks, along with a “beauty bar” finish the bath.
“Celebrity Big Brother” premieres on Wednesday, February 2 at 8 p.m. Eastern and Pacific times on CBS. It then airs on February 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 11, 13, 14, 16, 18-21 and finally has its finale on Wednesday, February 23.
