“Big Brother Australia” host Sonia Kruger revealed that the big “twist has a twist!” As the country awaited the launch of the Channel Nine reality show on Monday night, the presenter revealed that, not one, but two twists are coming the housemates’ way, and they won’t like them.

No, she still won’t say what the deal is with the new season, but Sonia said that the housemates will find this season quite challenging and rewarding.

“The twist has a twist! There are two big ones that will play out in the first few days with two big reveals in the first couple of shows,” the host revealed on the show’s official Web site.

“Big Brother has also developed a brand new show for Saturday nights and whichever HM wins this – it’s not that they’ll win a nice meal or a rewards room – what they win is something that’s quite integral to th Evictions and Nominations. So they will be fighting tooth and nail."

“It’s going to get very competitive.”

"Big Brother’s 'Showdown'" will air Saturday nights and will be hosted by Mike Goldman and last year’s contestant Michael Beveridge, while Sonia will host the regular show.

“I think it will be very interesting. I really think audiences will enjoy the twist but I’m not so sure the housemates will,” she added to The Sunday Mail.

“What the housemates are playing for on that night is crucial to what then happens at nominations and evictions. With the old games they had no real consequence but this year it does. I think it will make it very competitive.”

So far, only four housemates have been introduced, but Big Brother has come up with a way to show viewers a glimpse of the faces of the contestants.
