With the new CBS Big Brother 9 cast, CBS continues its path down a less than savory road, with its youthful cast of happy exhibitionists. It seems that the current CBS Big Brother 9 cast was selected more for what they can bring to the 24-hour feed than what they can offer a primetime show. The new CBS Big Brother 9 cast includes one former Penthouse Pet. a “bikini barista,” and a photographer, or paparazzo currently employed by the celebrity news site, TMZ.com.
