Housemates
"Thirteen" (including the 2-in-1 housemates) is the official count of housemates who entered the House. The first "eight" housemates (including the 2-in-1 housemates for both genders) entered the House on Day 1, October 14. The first seven were introduced each, in silhouette before revelation. The eighth housemate was introduced through in a Deal or No Deal-esque style, since one of the 26K ladies was about to enter. The surprise housemates were also introduced with one hiding inside a giant travel bag while the other being acknowledged to the live audience before proceeding into the House's activity area. The last five housemates entered on Days 2 to 4. They are listed here in order of entrance.
Each housemate is assigned a housemate number depending on their entry to the House; the Geisler brothers and the 26K models are assigned the numbers 7 and 8 respectively. These numbers are used in voting a particular housemate by SMS. This is a deviation from past editions wherein voting is done by name. After the Geisler brothers' split as a 2-in-1 housemate on Day 39, Baron's is assigned the old number 7 while Donald was given the number 14. But after Donald's exit, the voting was reverted to the by-name format.
