Big Brother 13 Launch Night: Meet the new 2012 housemates

Big Brother 13's new housemates have entered the compound after tonight's launch night episode.

The first entrant to the house, Deana Uppal, was informed upon entering that she will be immune from the first evictions, but had to nominate three housemates for the public vote this week based on her first impressions of the group, ultimately opting to nominate Conor McIntyre, Victoria Eisermann and Lydia Louisa.

The full selection of housemates for Big Brother 13 are as follows:

Deana Uppal, 23, the current Miss India UK, and a successful model in both the UK and India, where she currently lives in a house with three servants. She is happy being single, and claims that the greatest love of her life is money.

Arron Lowe, 23, a model for Abercrombie & Fitch and Hollister, and a Mixed Martial Arts fighter. He claims to be looking to return to MMA after Big Brother, and is mainly in it for "the glory". His strategy for Big Brother is to get others to like him and then play them off against each other.

Caroline Wharram, 20, a former boarding school girl from Surrey who claims to be "weird, embarrassing and a bit of a loser". After dropping out of university her only job has been as a charity 'mugger', which ended when she dropped her phone down a toilet.

Conor McIntyre, 24, a personal trainer from Northern Ireland who claims the most important person in his life is him, adding: "Basically I love myself." His party trick is to wrap his penis around his wrist and to ask people the time, something he calls "the c**k watch".

Luke Scrase, 24, a nightclub promoter from Stoke-on-Trent who claims to be the best looking alpha male in any bar he goes into. He says his ideal type of girl would have a "proper tight body" and "not be stupid" as he likes a challenge.

Shievonne Robinson, 28, an ex-Playboy bunny from Lewisham who thinks all men are liars and cheaters. Her party trick is to smoke a cigarette with her boobs, and she can down 10 tequila shots in 30 seconds.

Benedict Garrett, 32, an actor in the adult industry and former teacher - he was suspended from his last teaching job in 2010 when it was revealed he was a stripper and had worked in porn. He defended himself against improper conduct at a hearing and can return to teaching in two years, while remaining a proud spokesman for the porn industry.
