All About

Big Brother

by Nicholas Fonseca & William Keck

On Nov. 4, Louisiana waitress Krista Stegall, 28, told EW she's broken her engagement to fellow ''Big Brother 2'' contestant Mike ''Boogie'' Malin, 30, a California bar owner. Stegall was miffed by Malin's last-minute decision not to compete in CBS' ''Amazing Race 2,'' for which she claims they were candidates. (CBS confirms there'd been ''conversations'' about the couple's casting.) ''Mike's a great guy,'' she says, ''but it''s not the same as it was in the house.'' Malin says Stegall was irked by his new film-and-TV-writing partnership with cagey ''BB2'' champ Will Kirby, 28.
