In the words of Lizzo, "It's about damn time."

We've been waiting longer than usual for the latest season of our summertime obsession, Big Brother, but CBS decided to delay the season until August this summer.

We're just two days away from the premiere of Big Brother Season 25, and we have our cast.

There were some theories online that the show would keep the cast under wraps until the Wednesday, August 2, season premiere, but thankfully, the network dropped the casting news we've been anticipating for months.

Thankfully, we're getting 16 new houseguests, which probably means the rumors of returning houseguests are just that -- rumors.

So, who are the 16 new houseguests competing for one of the most coveted titles on the reality TV hit?
