DJ is the brickhouse with heart, a tall, sweet-tempered Jamaican-Canadian boy. The producers saw him push 80 shopping carts at his part-time job. In his audition, he explains all of his good qualities and why he should be in the contest. He then says that if he wins, he will give his prize to his mom because that's how much he loves her. After, he becomes emotional and bursts into tears. He joined because he figured that the money would really help his mother fulfill her dream of going back to Jamaica. He has a fear of snakes, heights, and water (which are shown to be overcome). He developed the fear of water when he was eight when his brothers dared him to dive off the big board in the local pool. Despite his fear, he did it to avoid being called "chicken." He is shown to have a deep respect for nature. He takes a wild rabbit as a pet, and perfectly mimics a deer. His best friends on the island are Duncan and Geoff. He usually helps Geoff when it comes to wooing Bridgette after his common screw ups with her.
