Rupert鈥檚 strategy to win will be based on a partnership he hopes to find in the house.
鈥淚鈥檓 also going to find a ride or die at the beginning who is more intelligent than I am because I am not the smartest guy in the world. I鈥檒l rely on them to do the mental challenges and they can count on me to do the physical challenges,鈥 Rupert said in his cast bio for the show.
