Kelowna’s Big Brother Canada contestant in final four

KELOWNA – It’s down to the final four in the Big Brother Canada house and Kelowna’s Dane Rupert is still in the running for a $100,000 grand prize.

Rupert, 27, was among a group of 15 as this season of the reality television game show got underway and has built quite a following.

As news of his survival was shared, his Twitter following sent out messages of support and excitement.

Kyra Shenker, 25, from Quebec.; Anthony Douglas, 31, from Ontario; and Adam Pike, 27, from Newfoundland round out the final four.

The House Guests have no communication with the outside world while in the house, with no access to luxuries such as internet and phones. One of the contestants is voted out of the house each week, while the winner of the series receives a $100,000 grand prize and other luxuries.
