Big Brother

In 2005 Howie was one of fourteen contestants in the American Big Brother 6. His secret partner in the game was his long term friend Rachel Plencner. Both Gordon and Plencner were part of the popular Sovereign Six alliance that battled with The Friendship alliance throughout the summer. Howie openly expressed his hatred for the other alliance, nicknaming them 'The Nerd Herd,' and often tried to unsettle them in the house, in particular April Lewis. Howie was evicted on Day 68 following a tie break vote from HoH, Ivette. Howie eventually had to choose between two friendship members in terms of who won the prize money, and he voted for Maggie, telling her of his regret that he had to choose between America's two most hated houseguests, instead of their two favourites - his friends Janelle Pierzina and Kaysar Ridha.

After reaching the final five in Big Brother 6, Howie was one of the eight housemates that America voted into the Big Brother house to be part of Big Brother: All-Stars. Howie was evicted when George became HoH and joined Marcellas Reynolds as the second member of the jury.

Howie was named Second most wanted house guest to appear in Big Brother 8 by the Big Brother fan community in 2007.[2] In 2006 he was chosen the third place as "Reality Blurred's Sexiest Reality Star".
