Time to get familiar with another set of names and faces – Season 7’s Contestant pages are now up.

Some quick highlights:

Another “world’s heaviest contestant” this year in the form of Ryan, who looks to be smuggling his own tire into Camp, though he’s not even on Commando Steve’s team.

A first, at least for Australian Biggest Loser, is the inclusion of someone with a disability – Selena is deaf! It’s not clear whether she is profoundly (completely) deaf or whether it’s a partial hearing loss, but being on the “I AM A WARRIOR” team could be interesting. She’s overcome some diversity in her life but she may not be able to hear Tiffiny’s motivational shouting!

“Token Homosexual” will this year be played by Margie, who has played three kinds of football, representing her state in two of them. She also looks just like you’d imagine a mid-30s morbidly obese lesbian footballer would look. Which surely played no part in her selection as a contestant!

Cheesiest quote: “I’m single and ready to mingle” – Lisa. You don’t need to lose weight to get a date, you just have to stop using lines like that!

Elder Statesman: Alex at a (relatively) sprightly 50. In a shocking turn of events he’s most inspired by previous contestant Bob. Though he’s far from alone in citing Bob as a big motivator.

Contestant most likely to be the stupidest: Lydia. Who puts Chris down as their inspirational role model person? Stupid people. That’s who.

And of course my tips on who’ll be the hottest for finale!

For the menfolk: A close race between the budding musician James and the chubbybubby Hamish. It’s hard to tell what’s under the flab with Hamish but he’s young and a bit of weightloss might move him from flabby to just cutely chubby. And James is already not too awful to look at and has the added appeal of being a muso, something the ladies seem to like.

For the ladies: Rebekah. Not even a fair race, she’s already looking pretty fine. Though she’ll need to give up the cigarettes if she hopes to find love with anything but another ashtray.

And who’s going to win? You know what, I’m going bold this year.

Margie will win The Biggest Loser Australia 2012. You heard it here first!
