Alex
Alex Coladonato (born August 16, 1983) was the owner of E-Squared Productions, a DJ company from Staten Island, New York. Alex has an older brother, Anthony, and was raised by his mother and grandmother. His father worked for Cantor Fitzgerald and was killed in World Trade Center 2 on 9/11. Alex has stated he has since dedicated his life to making his father proud. He also has various bachelor's degree in business, marketing and advertising and recently is working on his first master's degree in childhood education at St. John's University. Alex's soulmate in the game was Amanda. Alex had a close friendship with Matt while in the house, leading to an alliance between Alex & Amanda and Matt & Natalie. He had romantic feelings for Amanda at one point, which led to confrontations with Parker. Alex & Amanda were the first Head of Household couple of the season, and nominated Allison & Ryan against Jen & Parker, due to Ryan and Jen's romantic relationship outside of the house. Jen & Parker were evicted that week. The following week, James & Chelsia nominated Alex & Amanda against their allies Matt & Natalie. When both failed to win the Power of Veto, Joshuah & Sharon attempted to get the votes to keep Amanda & Alex, and convinced Allison & Ryan to do so. Minutes before the eviction, however, Allison & Ryan changed their minds, and Alex & Amanda were evicted on Day 21 in a three to zero vote. Later in the season, viewers could choose a previously evicted HouseGuest to potentially return to the game, and they chose Alex. On Day 35, the remaining HouseGuests had to choose to bring either James, who had been evicted only moments before, or Alex. Rather than reveal his identity, however, Alex was referred to as the "Mystery HouseGuest" to those still in the game. Ultimately, the HouseGuests chose to bring James back into the game. He came in 12th place.

Named for a noble ancestor
Great hunter or warrior
You will be one day.
Which will give your papa pride
But always I will remember you thus.”
