Will Kirby

William Terence Kirby (born on January 2, 1973, Florence, Italy), winner of the American reality television show Big Brother 2, and one of the final four contestants in Big Brother 7:All-Stars. In both series, Kirby forged various alliances, which often proved illusory, although his loyalty to the group of alpha males and alpha females known as "Chill Town" was never shaken. Kirby lasted to the end of the competition with Nicole Nilson Schaffrich, at which point, a jury of evicted contestants voted six-to-three for him to win the season's $500,000 US top prize. Outside of the house Will is a dermatologist, invests in Mike Malin's Dolce Group, and puts out his own Big Brother-themed clothing line. [1]

Life before and outside the show

Kirby was raised in Tallahassee, Florida where he graduated from the Florida State University School, nicknamed "Florida High". Kirby's father and step-mother, David Kirby and Barbara Hamby, are both authors and have been professors in the English Department at Florida State University for over 35 years.

In 1995, Kirby received his degree in Biology from Emory University. He obtained his medical degree from Nova Southeastern University in 2000 and did his first year of postgraduate training in Internal medicine at Mount Sinai Medical Center & Miami Heart Institute in Miami Beach, Florida in 2001.

Kirby and Mike Malin are not only allies on the show, but also friends away from it. They are business partners, having invested in several Hollywood restaurants/bars, including The Geisha House, Big Wangs, Bella Cucina Italiana, Les Deux, and Ashton Kutcher's restaurant Dolce.

Kirby also has appeared frequently on the television series Dr. 90210 on E!.POOPOO BIG TURD

Big Brother 2

Will never won a Head of Household competition, and was nominated a total of four times in the Big Brother house. He was nominated three times by Hardy Hill in weeks 3, 5 and 8, and once by Nicole in week 10. That means Will was up for nomination 4 out of 9 times (Week 7 had no HOH, nominations, or eviction due to Justin Sebik's ejection in week 1). Barely surviving being nominated for eviction, Will used trickery and deceit to avoid being evicted. He was the first on the show to intentionally lose competitions and was seen as weak by his fellow contestants. He also bizarrely sought to be hated by the other houseguests. He used lies and deception after admitting to his fellow houseguests that he would do so, lied about conversations and alliances and even lied about past experiences in his life. Regardless, Will is considered the most devious player in BB History. His pre-game strategy was to form an alliance with the young members of the group, by aligning himself with Mike "Boogie" Malin and Shannon Dragoo in "Chill Town". Kirby was well known for making promises he didn't intend to keep to HOH winners and getting people to do the dirty work. His name the "Puppet Master" derived from this. Kirby hoped that this group would be the target and that he'd emerge unscathed until the infighting in the other group began. Due to this strategy, Kirby was not seen as a threat. Constantly boasting on his Diary Room sessions that his game was quiet and deceptive, and - while he was often under-estimated - he won the second season. Will won the show with Monica Bailey, Krista Stegall, Kent Blackwelder, Mike Malin, Shannon Dragoo, and Sheryl Braxton voting for him to win.

Big Brother 7:All-Stars

On July 6, 2006, Producers chose Kirby to re-enter the Big Brother house to take part in Big Brother 7: All-Stars, CBS's All-Star edition of the long-running reality show. In Week 3, James Rhine, the week's Head of Household, nominated him for eviction. During the third eviction ceremony, Jase was evicted instead of Kirby by a vote of 9 - 0, even though Will gave a long speech about how he wanted to be voted out and that he hated every single person in the house.

During his Diary Sessions with Boogie, they pantomime talking to each other on the phone and brag about their recent manipulations. These segments invariably end with both doubled over in hysterical laughter. In one instance, Kirby laughs so hard, he falls off of the Diary Room couch and out of frame.

On the All-Star episodes, Kirby, Malin, and Rhine, along with Season 3's runner-up Danielle Reyes, have formed a new alliance called "The Legion of Doom." However, Rhine was voted out in seventh place, Reyes was voted out in sixth place and Kirby himself was voted out in fourth.

Will had a "showmance" with Janelle Pierzina who is also part of the big brother all-stars cast. She was previously in BB6. This "showmance" is supposedly illegitimate. During one of the Big Brother episodes, there was a scene where Mike "Boogie", Erika, Janelle, and Will took a clothed shower together. On the way to the shower, Will and Boogie stopped in the diary room to state the following: Chill Town is on a little mission right now called Operation Double Date, says Boogie. The way it works is I get very close to Erika, Will gets very close to Janelle, using our charisma, good looks, and winsome personalities. What these girls think is that they are winning our hearts and they're manipulating us, but what we're really doing is... Will says, Ripping their hearts out of their chest and squeezing the blood in the pocket of their cheap blouses before they can blink twice."

On day 65, after Janelle got manipulated by Erika, Will was evicted by a single vote from Janelle.

BB All Stars Controversy

Prior to entering the house, Will argued with producers that he would not be a houseguest unless his partner in season 2 Mike Malin "Boogie" go with him. This was viewed on Live Feed while Will was talking to Howie and Kaysar. The live feed was soon cut and replaced by the "BB flames." Also Will admitted in an interview that another of his conditions for entering the Big Brother house was that he and Mike be given an interview with the casting director of The Amazing Race.
