James competed on two seasons of Big Brother. Not only was he crowned "America's Favorite Houseguest" at the end of Season 17 due to his personality, pranks and strategy, but he also appeared on the show's eighteenth season.
James finished his first season of Big Brother in seventh place, and then on Season 18, he claimed third place.
As for Corey, the Dallas baseball coach also played Season 18 of Big Brother. Corey was great in physical challenges and finished the season in fourth place. He might also be remembered for his showmance with former Big Brother winner Nicole Franzel.
James and Corey obviously remained friends after their Big Brother appearance together, but that may come as a surprise to fans since James was solely responsible for evicted Corey from the house.
