You'll probably want to read the entire CBS press release, but this excerpt caught my attention...
On premiere night, Thursday, July 5 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT), Houseguests will learn that some of them will be sharing the house with an enemy, a rival or someone with whom they have unfinished business -- in short, someone from their past who they had hoped never to see again or someone with whom there is an extreme amount of tension.
In addition to the surprise twist of an unwelcome person from their past, the premiere episode will reveal a new interactive element that will give viewers the most control they've ever had over someone in the BIG BROTHER house. For the first time...America is in the house.
One participant has been selected to be "America's Player." At the conclusion of every episode, beginning Sunday, July 8 (8:00-9:00 ET/PT), a question will be asked of viewers where they will vote on an important assignment that "America's Player" must complete. It could be a strategic move or a personal action. They must attempt to do what viewers request, including voting out a specific Houseguest. And, they can never tell anyone in the house that they are working on behalf of the viewers. But, they need to be careful...just like their fellow Houseguests, they can be voted out at any time. If "America's Player" successfully accomplishes these assignments, they will be financially rewarded. Viewers will be able to vote on cbs.com or via text messaging on a mobile phone and will choose from multiple choice answers on each question. The prevailing vote must be completed by "America's Player" in order for him or her to be rewarded.
Oh! I like the idea of this America's Player!

So, since they're already in the house are they filming for the premiere?
I guess I'm confused...the press release says that on premiere night they'll learn that some of them are living with an enemy. Wouldn't they find that out as soon as they enter the house, which they've already done? Or is it that WE'LL find out they're living with an enemy on premiere night?
Sometimes I'm so blond ;)
Heh, ORKMommy. I don't think they're in the house yet. They probably won't go in before Monday. Right now they should be being held in sequester at a hotel not allowed to mingle... sort of solitary confinement with a handler.
WE will find out premiere night, but they will most likely find out when they enter the house. They tape a few days ahead so they can put together the premiere.
oooh...I can't wait. My favorite addiction....
