Big Brother 2014 cast member Cody Calafiore is a model, but as usual, that’s not what his CBS profile says he does for a living. Instead, it says he is a sales account executive. CBS doesn’t like to flaunt the fact that they choose two or three models or model wannabes every season to stack the eye candy in the house. So they usually hide them under some inane job title that may or may not be entirely accurate.

According to his LinkedIn profile, Cody Calafiore does/did have a day job as a ‘sales associate’ at ADP (a human resources company). Before that he was some kind of ‘event host’ for something called Total Entertainment. We don’t know what that job was about, but it seems like he was mostly busy stripping down to his barely anything for near-naked underwear modeling campaigns. Or appearing as part of Seventeen Magazine’s 2014 Hot Guy Panel.
Cody does have a Bachelor of Business Administration from Temple University. However, it’s obvious from his modeling portfolio and his decision to be on Big Brother 16 that Cody would probably rather find fame and fortune as a model or TV star than win any sales awards. Especially since he only started this ‘sales’ job earlier this year and he’s already ditched it for three months to be on the show.

Occupation: Sales Account Executive
Three adjectives that describe you: Outgoing, happy-go-lucky and empathetic.
Favorite Activities: I love going on runs, working out and going to the gym.
What do you think will be the most difficult part about living inside the Big Brother house: From watching previous seasons, not having communications from the outside world seems like the most difficult part, it causes all sorts of paranoia about twists in the game. Also, I always have the TV on to fall asleep; it will be difficult to not have one.
Do you have a strategy for winning Big Brother?: No! Thinking about all the different ways to get to the end is enough to make my head explode! It will be a game time decision for me once I get into the house.
Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most: Jeff – he was an extremely smart player and was just a genuinely good person.
What are you afraid of: Losing family, snakes and being in the pitch black is pretty freaky.
What is the accomplishment you are most proud of: Being picked up by a professional soccer team.
Finish this sentence: My life’s motto is… Don’t be afraid of falling; be afraid of not having the will to get back up.
What would you do if “Big Brother” made you famous: Continue to watch every season of Big Brother and try and get back onto another season!
Cody is a Seventeen Magazine “2014 Hot Guy Panelist,” where he gives young female readers advice on dating and fashion. He was drafted to a pro soccer team in college, but was cut from the team after getting injured. Chick flicks are his guilty pleasure.

More on Cody Calafiore:
Cody is another CBS casting recruit for season 16. That means he did not audition, he was hand-picked and recruited to be on the show. He says he did put in an application, but only after being told to do so. Probably because CBS thought they needed more hot guys this season who could show off their toned bodies lounging by the pool. And hopefully get in some showmance with some hot girl they also recruited.
Cody and his brother Paul Calafiore are both models, in fact, and could almost be twins. We vote Cody the most likely to be caught with his pants down on the Big Brother Live Feeds camera simply because he apparently doesn’t give a damn who sees him in his undies. Want proof? Just watch this video he stars in for C-IN2 underwear. (Ladies and gay gentlemen, don’t drool on the screen kay?)
Cody was also a pretty strong soccer player at some point and looks like he was looking to hopefully go pro. That’s what we get from this ‘Cody Calafiore Package’ video about his soccer skills.
In his Seventeen Magazine interview earlier this year, Cody said he was in a relationship. Now, however, he says he is single. We wonder… is he single for the game, or is he really actually single? Hmmmm.
Our Thoughts on Cody Calafiore:
We don’t actually have much to say about Cody. He’s just the typical ‘hot guy’ going into the house that is kind of an unknown. He comes across kind of boring and flat in his pre-season interviews, and he doesn’t really know that much about the game. He’s obviously very fit and so physical challenges should probably go well for him, but we don’t know about the puzzles, memory, and intellectual competitions. If he gets in the right showmance or alliance he could do well. He could even surprise us and emerge as a strong, powerful player. We could potentially see him making final five… if he makes it past the first couple of weeks.
