Fake Evictions Big Brother Africa III

The fake eviction show got a fake opening with some bad music from Nazizi, Wyre and Bebe Cool. That was horrendous! It looked like a bad choir and was only spiced up by the dancers. Even the audience looked bored. But all the same there’s something not quite right with the BBA sound engineering this time especially the live shows. But that can still not be the excuse for that performance.

Other than the poor opening, the whole fake eviction thing played out to be an unfair game. Twists are welcome to break the monotony especially now that all the tasks suck big time. But to show the evictees their enemies and then send them back into the house? And then to leave them hanging not knowing what is what? Even a whole hour after the fake evictions, they were still waiting for some word from Biggie. For one he gave Morris and Thami an advantage over the rest of the group. And then he’ll ensure bad blood for as long as they’re in there. And then they’ll have people to target every time they nominate.

Is biggie mistreating the housemates? They’re smoking tea bags, have to beg for salt and the girls are washing their faces with shampoo. They housemates are complaining that the previous year’s lot was treated much better. Cigarettes he could say maybe he wants their lungs to stay clean and healthy, but soap? Come on biggie what next?

Just before being sent back into the house, Thami promised to be more extreme, more unpredictable and to make everybody suffer. What a dark promise! And what a strategy if at all. Other than that, if he had left the house he’d miss Lucille most because she’s the best to look at. Nothing more than that. Thami is not very likable but he adds a crooked element to the show. Somewhat like Justice did in BBA2.

Morris after finding out who nominated him lamented that it was not a family any more. It never was a family dude! It’s battle or as Sheila put it at the start of the show, it’s war. Everyone wants the money. He sulked and paced and sulked and paced and boasted that he’s a professional and cannot keep up appearances just to please people. Keep up the professionalism dude. Unfortunately it may not get you anywhere. Understandably, he’s annoyed at Big Brother for embarrassing him and playing with his head in front of millions. But the way he sprinted back into the house showed otherwise. The guy needs a thicker skin for games like this.

Sheila, whose strategy seems to be to project a gangster image prefers to date white men because they respect their women more than their African counterparts. And she had to say that in front of million of potential African male voters. Hope they’ll have forgotten that little detail by the time she gets nominated. But the girl is truly the life of the party and her absence or silence is very noticeable. She loves to talk but she’s informed. That’s a good combination unlike someone just blabbering about things they barely understand. She better reduce on the yadayadayada otherwise she’ll start sounding like Maureen with her bla bla bla.

Somebody please get Mimi clothes that fit! The girl seems to have picked undersize clothes from her little sister’s wardrobe. In the meantime she should please spare us the unnecessary cleavage in the wrong places! Takondwa too needs to be arrested by the fashion police. Ok it’s not a fashion competition but maan! That sweater looks like a caterpillar or some other creepy crawly.

Latoya’s game plan is wicked and will most probably blow up in her face. You don’t just play around with people’s heads and hearts like that. Feminine wiles go hand in hand with some other thing – like some sort of intelligence. But just the wiles on their own they may not get you much.
