Rebecca Church

* BB7
* BB5

## **Overview**

Rebecca Church was a houseguest on Big Brother 5, and is the winner of Big Brother 7. She is the daughter of Donna McDonald from Big Brother 3.

Rebecca was well regarded as a great social and strategic player of season five. Although on the outs of the majority alliance, she managed to form close relationships with members of the main alliance, which kept her out if harms way when they were in power. In week three she won her first Head of Household, and shared a co-HOH with Cohen Lake, the two of them agreed on targeting Dwayne Bright sending him out of the house. In week four Rebecca and Diego Romano concocted a plan to oust Bobby Jenner, and make a move against the majority, but when Sedric Quilliams voted opposite of them, it ruined their plan, however Rebecca was able to do damage control and recover nicely with the trio. In week six she won Head of Household and made one of the biggest moves of the season, nominating one houseguest from each side of the majority, forcing them to turn on eachother. This led to the eviction of Cole Dristan and following Cohen Lake. In the final five Rebecca was nominated as a pawn against Sedric Quilliams, but in the later days of the week, the trio had decided that Rebecca was the bigger threat and greater risk to take to the final four, so she was evicted in a tie vote by Clarity Mitchell.

## **Biography**

* Big Brother 5

**Age:** 25
**Hometown:** Las Vegas, Nevada
**Sign:**Leo
**Occupation:** Grad Student
**One word that would describe you and why?:**Focused. When I set my mind to something, I go for it. It takes a lot to get my mind off of what I have planned.
**What did you learn from the last time you played Big Brother?:** Do not trust everyone. Sedric really surprised me. I thought I knew what people were thinking, and obviously I was wrong.
**How do you think you will do this season compared to your last?:** I am preparing for competition beasts, strategic kings and queens, and take no prisoner gameplay. This season will be a lot more cutthroat and straight to business. There will be no time to breathe.
**Who would you want to work with from past seasons?:** I would love to play with my mom, Donna. Natasha, Carol & Stacy all come to mind as well. I would love to play with other strong, powerful, women of color.
**What is your strategy this season>:** As much as I would love to lay low, that’s not me. I am going to go in and try to get people on my side, form an alliance early, and run a hopefully dominant side of the house. The only thing I can’t do is be tricked by those who I thought I could trust. I need to find genuine people, and make sure I keep them close so they do not stray.
**Anything you want to say to your fans?:** It’s an honor being in this house, and having people cheer me on from home. I want to say thank you ,and I hope to make you all proud! If there are any special powers in this game, and you get to choose, send me as much help as you can!

Since Rebecca left the Big Brother house, she has gone on to Grad School. She is currently focused on her studies, and is currently sitting at the top of her class. Rebecca can be seen on campus running activities, and events for her fellow students. She and fellow houseguest, Clarity Mitchell, have kept in touch, and have run a half marathon together to raise money for their local children’s hospitals.
**Age:** 23
**Hometown:** Las Vegas, Nevada
**Sign:** Leo
**Occupation:** Student
**Three adjectives that describe you:** Self-Confident, Energetic, Witty
**Favorite Activities:** Hanging out with friends, listening to music, painting and concerts.
**What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house:** I am not looking forward to having to fake being happy to those I dislike. I am not a fake person, but I feel like I may have to act in the house.
**How will it affect your game, being a loved one to a past houseguest:** I do not think it will. I am my own person, and people will like me for who I am, or hate me for who I am. I am the only one who can define me.
**Which past houseguest would you not want to play with the loved one of, why?:** There is no one I am afraid of. While there are some great players who have played the game, it does not mean their loved one is just as good. My mom didn’t do so well after starting strong, so people may not view me as a threat.
