Jason Guy, a contestant from the CBS reality show "Big Brother 3," has been called one of the greatest Christian characters to ever hit primetime.
Jason was chosen as one of the twelve contestants from among 6,000 applicants. He entered the Big Brother house in the summer of 2002 to make some friends and have a shot at the $500,000 grand prize. Jason finished the show in third place after 79 days in the sequestered house where his every move was caught on camera and watched by over 15 million people three nights a week.
He survived until only three houseguests remained, but was finally evicted only because he was perceived as the greatest threat to win the money. While he didn't bring home the big prize, Jason did impact the lives of all of his houseguests and many viewers during his 11-week stay in the house. Earning an 86% popularity rating among viewers, Jason was the most popular of all houseguests from the three seasons of Big Brother.
Jason shared his faith with America not just in word, but by action.
He has a passion to encourage people how to live out their faith in the sometimes unfaithful world around us.
Being around the media and in the public eye is far from new to Jason. At 12 years old, he received his FCC license and worked for various radio stations in Mobile, Alabama for over 12 years. During his high school years, he was host of the "Fox 15 Breakfast Club" TV show on WPMI, the Gulf Coast Fox affiliate. He worked for the Mobile, AL based record company Integrity Music where he was the Radio Promotions Coordinator. Before entering the Big Brother House, he worked freelance on various video and audio productions and served as Junior High Student Ministries Director for over 3 years at Knollwood Christian Church in Mobile, Alabama. Jason lived in Los Angeles for more than 3 years working as a casting director on reality shows including "The Amazing Race" (for multiple Emmy award winning seasons) and "Survivor" for CBS, "The Biggest Loser" for NBC, "Beauty and the Geek" for The WB and various other network shows.
He is the front man/lead vocalist for the Jason Guy Band, a modern praise and worship group.
Whenever he can get back to Mobile, Alabama he attends his home church Knollwood Christian. Jason lives in Richmond, Virginia where he works as a news reporter for the ABC television station. He is 30 years old.
