Julia Nolan

Julia Nolan was a houseguest on Big Brother 17.

Julia was a part of the season's Twin Twist, along with her sister Liz. Liz and Julia compete/vote as a pair and switch every few days, with 15 minutes to update each other on what is going on within the house. The twins made it through the first 5 evictions, so they got to compete as two separate HouseGuests. She was aligned with Liz and Austin Matelson and was apart of the Sixth Sense alliance.

During Week 11 both Austin and Liz were nominated by Steve Moses for eviction. During the veto competition, Julia chose to challenge Austin instead of Johnny Mac due to Vanessa convinced her that it was the only way she would not go up next to her sister. However, this backfired as Austin was able to remove himself from the block by winning the veto competition, leaving Julia as the replacement nominee. The twins decided that Liz had a better shot of winning the game than Julia, so she asked the others to evict her despite not being the target.

The others honored her wish, and Julia was evicted by a 3-0 vote. She placed 6th and became the 6th jury member. On finale night, she ended up voting for Liz to win.

Biography
Birthday: December 23, 1991

Tall, blonde, gorgeous.... And there's two of them! Julia and her twin sister, Liz, make quite the statement when they enter a room together. The twins do everything together, down to their matching breast augmentations, which were done on the same day. Julia is known as the feisty, more "tom boy" of the two. She's super athletic and loves surfing, rock climbing, soccer and crossfit. A bit of a man eater, Julia says, "Liz dates for love and I date for fun." Having overcome Leukemia when she was 6, Julia is definitely a fighter and will bring that mentality into the BB house and knows she has the will to get to the end, with or without her sister.
