It promises to be a dramatic and mouth-watering 72 days as Nigerian and South African housemates merge to fight for the grand prize of $100,000 cash in the upcoming instalment of the Big Brother Franchise.
The biggest reality TV show has been known to leave people’s hearts in their mouths and evoke nauseating uncertainties as well as excitement. Add that to the mix of having housemates from two of the biggest economies and two of the most prominent entertainment hubs in Africa.
As the show is about to deliver new doses of crunch scenes and sailing ships — or sinking ones, we take a look at six things to expect from BBTitans.
Mind-bending Twists
“There’s no other trick up Big Brother’s sleeves”, fans said before Biggie came with the Level Up season which featured two levels of houses, riders, fake housemates and unexpected twists.
Of course, there’ll be even more twists and turns this time. Perhaps two winners? Tag teams? Celebrity housemates? We’ll find out soon enough.
Culture Clash
There’s unity in diversity, and BBTitans should emphasize just that.
From unfamiliar meals to hard-to-pronounce names, and strange habits to varying values, we are in for a melting pot of cultures.
Lots of Music
There’ll be music, music and more music. BBTitans will feature two countries that love good music and like to have a great time.
Apart from music-inclined housemates pitching themselves, we might just be in for the most Amapiano-esque Saturday night parties and dance steps we’ve ever seen.
Twitter Wars
No doubt, BBTitans will kick start an interesting divide as much as it will create connections between ‘stans’ of the two countries involved (Step aside, Ghana). One thing is sure though: Twitter is going to be on fireeee!
Inter-ethnic Ships
Yes! A Mzansi lady would fall in love with a tall glass of Nigerian chocolate or a Yoruba demon would lose guard and lose all his charms to a South African beauty.
Good thing loverboy Ozo isn’t part of these housemates; we need more action and less “like…I feel like”.
Strong Personalities
Gone are the days of ‘Vibes and Inshallah’, BBTitans is going to be a fight to finish. Knowing fully what they are up against, there is every chance each housemate would come to the show with a unique game plan to win the hearts of fans.
We expect to see unyielding, competitive and talented personalities.
