Biography
Hakeem Ridha was born in Pakistan. He and his family migrated to the United States when he was a child, and he has lived in New York since. He described himself as "a womanizer, stylish, and a gentleman". Hakeem had never seen the show before being cast, and was found due to his work as a model. He claims to have binge watched the first two seasons before entering sequester, and listed Sam Asghari as his favorite former housemate from the series. He described his strategy as finding a romance and a best male friend in the House, and making it to the end with both of them. Though he did not seem to have much knowledge on the game prior to entering the House, he was noted as a quick study and soon became a powerful player. He hoped to use the prize money to get a new car should he win.

Hakeem entered the House on Day 1. He formed a close friendship with Izaak and Tom, and the men formed the nine person Committee alliance that week. He also began a romantic relationship with Kristen, who was included in the alliance. He was nominated for eviction on Day 12 against Izaak, though won the Power of Veto that week and removed himself from the block. He was nominated for a second time on Day 19, this time against Tom. Hakeem won the Power of Veto for the second week in a row and was able to once more remove himself from the block. He was nominated for a third time on Day 33, against Tom, but was able to survive that week's eviction vote. Hakeem was nominated for a fourth time on Day 40. Despite a strong campaign on his behalf, he was evicted from the House that week on Day 45. He came in eighth place.

Upon exiting the House, Hakeem received a mixed reaction from fans. Though he was applauded for his strong alliance, he was seen as unlikable in comparison to the popular underdogs of the game. He and Kristen broke up soon after the show ended, and he has returned to a fairly normal life.
