Arisa Cox and Big Brother Canada are back for Season 9.
Cox, the host of the Canadian reality show since Day 1, is beyond excited for the return of BBCAN, and this year she’s taken on the additional role of co-executive producer. According to Cox, she now has a hand in casting — among other things — and has kept her first promise by bringing aboard a wide selection of diversified houseguests.
After last season’s abrupt ending due to COVID-19, Global, along with production company Insight Productions, have done everything to ensure the safety of the incoming cast and crew.
“It’s incredible, … the COVID safety protocols are so extreme,” said Cox in the interview. “Every single person (on-set) takes it so seriously because we’re so happy to be here.”
Global News sat down with Cox on Zoom to talk about all things BBCAN9, including how the show structure will be different this season and why people around the world — not just in Canada — are fascinated by this Canadian reality show.
