Damien "Damo" Hoo is working at the Stones Corner pub behind the bar. When you're there next, ask him for a Mirabai special: two shots of Bacardi, mint, lime, soda, a dash of vanilla coke and a teaspoon of sugar.

Big Brother Generation

The Mr Congeniality Award: To Damian Hoo, for proving he is able to adapt to any situation. Within hours of entering the house, he had his sights set on bubbly housemate Jessica. It took no more than a day for him to turn his affections to "I'm so complex it hurts'' Mirabai.

The Hugh Grant Gotcha Award: To talk-show host Rove McManus, for pairing evicted housemate Damian with Mirabai's boyfriend, Sydney musician Dan. Hoo did have prior warning - program staff 'fessed up to the stunt shortly before he took the chair - but that didn't temper the look of horror on his face when introduced to Dan.

This week I bought a new car, a Daihatsu Feroza 1994. I also bought a CD player to go in it and have yet to install it. This car had me written all over it. It has a sun roof you can take off and a back bit you can take off.

For the past week I have been on TV quite a bit. It's funny how I'm not even on the show but I'm still popping up everywhere. Rove was a laugh. It panned out well and I won the kissing comp (maybe cos I still have a lot of feeling for Miras). In fact I caught the plane down from Brisabne with Miras so it gave us a chance to chat and my feelings for her came flooding back. Regardless of the "Brodie Incident" she's still way cool.

I was on the Eviction show last Sunday wearing a particular �Charisma� shirt. It was meant as a little dig in the ribs, obviously at the Brodester, and BB Online have given it thumbs up in the t-shirt ratings. Cheers!!!!

Nathan Says:
Of the HM that left before you, who would you have most liked to have stayed in the house longer? Damian and Shannon. Damian was a carefree cool guy, and I was really surprised to see him go - I knew we had heaps more fun in store.

Recently invited to Mercedes Australian Fashion Week. Damian did some catwalk strutting in a tight pair of Morrissey swimmers and straw hat.

BB Bad Blood

IS there some bad blood among the Big Brother boys?

Damian Hoo, the first evictee from the second series, was cleaned up by BB series one graduate Blair McDonough in the QBE Sydney Swans celebrity match on Sunday.

He also was set upon by comedian Wil Anderson (who had said on his radio program he was going to get Hoo) and later suffered an asthma attack. None of this stopped him making an appearance that night at a Canberra nightclub.

First Ever Big Brother Instant Scratchie Game Launched

SYDNEY, Australia - The stars of the second Big Brother television series will be getting even more exposure following the release this week of a series of Instant Scratchies featuring all 12 housemates.

Damian Hoo, the first housemate to be evicted in the current series, said that it was "pretty cool" to feature on an Instant Scratchie. "I think all us expected that going on Big Brother would lead to some new opportunities but seeing my face and all the other housemates on millions of tickets is a real buzz," Damian said.

Damian was a guest on
Rove Live tonight along with Mirabai's on/off boyfriend, Daniel Freeman. Damian was in shock that he was about to meet Mirabai's boyfriend. Daniel just talked about how it was "heart wrenching" to see what was going on between the two in the BB house. He said that he knew what could happen from watching the first BB series and came to a mutual decision with Mirabai the break up so she could be free to do whatever in the house. Daniel ended with asking Damian if he was half malaysian, he said "yes" and Daniel said he was too and wondered what was with that?!

22 April 2002
"He's a softie," says his father, Chan, owner of the Brisbane Exhaust Centre. "He always gives me a hug ... and often buys flowers for his mum." That's better PR than sister Elizabeth is spinning. Damian, a guitarist  in rock, jazz and blues band Starling, "plays alternative music," says Elizabeth. "He writes some songs, but he's pretty bad." Damian only auditioned for
Big Brother to "show off."
