Matt Klotz On Big Brother 25
So, why did Matt decide to go on Big Brother 25? Because he said he really wanted to take on the challenge and the adventure it has. He seemed very hopeful that he could do better in the physical ones. The only weakness will be the one where he would have to listen a lot, he said.
Before entering the house, Matt told Parade he is a pretty decent fan of the show. Despite his rigorous training schedule, has watched a couple of seasons of it.
In the pregame interview, Matt also talked about his strategy going into the game. He said there are a lot of ways he can go about this. Yet, his main focus at the time of this writing was to try to win the first HoH so that people come to him to make the alliances themselves.

Another thing, you also should know is, Matt was planning to not let anyone know about his skill of lip reading. He has this ability to read anyone’s lips from far away or up close. “I’m not going to let them know that because that’s gonna be a huge advantage for me”, he told Parade.
