A Spring In Their Step!

By: NATASHA UYS

SPRING has sprung, September’s rolled around and the housemates are celebrating with romance, music and dancing.

As part of Biggie’s ‘Romance and Love’ task this week, both the All Star housemates and The Barnmates have to get their dirty dancing shoes on and shake what their mamma’s gave them on the dance floor.
While the All Stars have three days to learn three different dances, the Barnmates only have to master one, particularly funky and fun dance genre.
Tuesday was classic as the All Stars tried to learn a little ballet, while the Barnmates got all groovy, donning platform shoes, afro wigs and bell-bottoms as they shook it like they were in New York’s famed Studio 54 circa 1970.
Yesterday, the All Stars got their cool on, getting down to the beat with some shoulder-swaying and hand-gesturing Hip Hop moves.
While some housemates may have two left feet, others seemed more than enthusiastic to get down to business, although neither the Barnmates nor the All Stars wagered a full 100 per cent on this task.
The All Stars wagered a rather non-committal 50 per cent, while the Barnmates placed 75 per cent on the line for performing the task.

OLD FLAME

Meanwhile, back at The Barn, romance seems to be filling the fresh spring air, with the appearance of one of Sheila’s former boyfriends.
Bryan, also known as Smallz, surprised Sheila in The Barn yesterday, with a lovely bunch of flowers.
Gosh, I have never seen Sheila so aflutter!
Clearly flustered, the usually tomboyish Sheila immediately ran upstairs to get dolled up – putting on a sexy white top and silk pants – for her former beau as quickly as possible.
She also had another quick shower. Talk about spring cleaning!
Smiling shyly, Sheila was tight-lipped when Hannington and the other housemates questioned her about who exactly Bryan was.
According to the man himself, the two met over a crazy weekend when Sheila was celebrating her birthday, saying Sheila had “kidnapped” him.
Even Tatiana seemed impressed with the visitor and asked if Bryan was a buddy or more. “He looks very cool,” she said.

SECRET TASK

The representative from Botswana, Kaone, complained bitterly to Big Brother during his diary room session that Uti was allegedly being “nasty” to him.
Ag shame! I mean ...
Apparently Uti has been calling K1 a cricket and this has sniff, sniff ... hurt his feelings a little. In response, Kaone decided to rather keep his distance from Uti.
In a school-yard twist, Biggie decided to throw a secret task Kaone’s way – for a full 24-hour period, K1 may not speak to anyone else besides Uti!
Sparks of a whole different type seem to be sparking around the house and Barn, with some housemates apparently becoming sick and tired of others.
Hannington it seems has now “grown tired” of Tatiana and while he has vowed to keep his distance from her, she has vowed to confront his distant attitude at the first opportunity she gets.
The Ugandan feels Tatiana is taking things too seriously.
He told Biggie on Tuesday that he hoped she was not involving emotions because he was not in a position to handle a relationship on the show.
Hannington told Big Brother that Tatiana was beginning to get on his nerves because she constantly tried to kiss him on his neck.
Hmmmmmm …. When Hannington first entered the house he set his sights on Sheila, and even gave her a friendship ring. She was very ‘iffy’ about a house relationship at that stage …
And then Hanni was evicted to The Barn.
Wonder if he doesn’t want to renew his pursuit of the Kenyan.
