Kat Florek @katflorek
Kat Florek is a competitive, fun party girl who loves beautiful women, dive bars and karaoke. Originally from Illinois, Kat knows that her tough-girl persona will make its mark in the mansion.

Looking to tap into her softer side, she anticipates that living in the BGC mansion will help balance her feisty temper.
Jasmine Carter @JassBGC
A gutsy girl from the Windy City, Jasmine Carter is known for saying one thing and doing another, if you make Jasmine mad, you'll get a dose of the South Side's finest. She has a dominant personality but is trying to take a new lease on life by trading in drama for laughter. Her motto? "This isn't The Friendship Club... It's The Bad Girls Club!"
Lauren Lewis
A self-proclaimed "Backwoods Barbie," Lauren Lewis loves to hunt, fish, wrestle and hang with the guys. Hailing from Atlanta, Lauren is known to be the life of the party but often finds herself in
CASUAL relationships. Looking to balance work and play, she's hoping to calm her partying ways.

In a house with six other girls, Christina's goal is to think before she acts and live life a little less unfiltered.
Shannon & Shannade Clermont @Clermonttwins
Never the ones to bite their tongues, identical twins Shannon and Shannade Clermont are double the trouble. Raised in New York City, they have grown accustomed to a lavish lifestyle and idolize the fashion and modeling industries. They are two peas in a pod and do not seek approval from anyone else. Known for having zero filters, these hot tempered co-dependent sisters want to learn to let others in rather than shutting everyone out.
