It takes all types to make up the Big Brother Canada house.
Fifteen people will be packed into the edifice, starting Wednesday on Slice and Global. Through exclusive interviews, here's a fun look at six of the contestants, who reveal their hopes, fears, inspirations and aspirations:
Danielle Alexander

Inspiration: "Rachel McAdams."
Biggest hope: "I hope people don't judge me too much, because I do realize my looks get in the way of a lot of things."
Biggest fear: "I'm sure I'll probably come across as a bitch."
