The first ever Big Brother: Celebrity Edition season started with 11 celebrity houseguests. There are many actresses (American Pie‘s Shannon Elizabeth, Hairspray‘s Marissa Jaret Winokur), singers (Sugar Ray’s Mark McGrath) and there were two retired professional athletes. UFC champ Chuck Liddell was the first to be evicted. That leaves 6’7″ tall NBA champ Metta World Peace (formerly Ron Artest) as the lone athlete in the Big Brother house.

Metta World Peace is one of the more interesting celebrities to watch on Big Brother: Celebrity Edition because he doesn’t seem to care about (or isn’t well aware of) the rules of the game. Plus, it seems like he’s always enjoying himself. On the Valentine’s Day episode, the romantic Metta made sure to give a shout out to his bride-to-be Maya. Metta has reportedly been dating Maya Ford, a Korean Canadian professional model, since 2012. See cute couple and modeling photos below. Big Brother: Celebrity Edition airs Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on CBS.
