Big Brother Africa 4: Bring on the girls. Fast!

HAVING known Eddie and Erastus since I was 14 years old, I screamed my voice hoarse on Sunday when I saw Eddie up on the BBA stage, then seeing Erastus too – I went into overdrive. How exciting!
BBA producers couldn’t have chosen anyone better and just the fact that Namibia is the country at the centre of this exciting twin plot, is awesome and something that should drive every one of their friends to vote religiously.

Anybody who’s anybody has met the Moongo twins, they are natural born entertainers, wickedly funny and hilariously conceited! Though, I think half the stuff they say, they say just for the love of attention. These socialites love the spotlight and now they have it!With my insider’s scoop, I hope to bring you guys the lowdown on the Moongo twins next week, for now – let see what’s been happening in the house for the last couple of days … DUDESVILLE, DULLSVILLE?Let’s be honest, a house full of guys is not very exciting, the talk goes something like this … ‘Where’s the beer?’ and ‘Big Brother, when are the girls arriving?’ Big Brother or rather, Big Brother’s Mother, has remained mum on the imminent arrival of the ladies. The guys don’t know it but the lovelies will be arriving this Sunday. For now, testosterone has reigned supreme as the guys slob around the house. Besides Hannington, whose sweaty armpits are getting a bit too much even for guys, the rest of the boys look like they are in need of a good scrubbing. Hopefully they’ll scrub up better once there are a few females in the house. Should be interesting to see what happens with the twins, should one fall in love. Will they play the girl and manage to fool her, or will they confide in her and tell her the truth?Big Momma has awarded each housemate with US$2 500. The money is theirs to keep as long as they behave well. They lose money for each poor task performance, any act of cruelty, tardiness, selfishness or general bad behaviour. Mmm … interesting, but what exactly qualifies as bad behaviour?Does farting constitute an act of cruelty? Seems that way, especially after South Africa’s Quinn let off a motha of a stinker recently, sending all the guys reeling, rushing outside and gasping for air!NDUDASBesides the wallowing in a general sense of bad hygiene, the guys have been spending their time on individualising their Nduda sculptures. A Nduda sculpture is apparently a positive representation of a person, featuring their unique characteristics. Big Momma has also provided them with a box of decorations and tools to bling out their sculptures. In addition, each of the guys has to prepare a speech motivating why they deserve to stay in the house. As for alliances, the hardcore drinkers and smokers seem to have bonded – prompting Yacob, Hannington and Itai to discuss disregarding their initial pledges of allegiance and solidifying their ‘Smokers’ Alliance’. Yacob, who says he is 28 but looks more like 38, feels that the boring housemates, AKA those who don’t drown themselves in a boozy cloud of smoke, kill the buzz and got to go! Wonder how long that alliance will last, especially considering the fact that they ran out of cigs yesterday. How long before the guys start getting irritable from withdrawal? And who will be the first to crack?As for who will be leaving the house on Sunday, it’s anyone’s guess! I’m hoping that you guys have been voting for Eddie as fanatically as I have and that our twins will get to stay in the BBA house till the end.* Tune in to DStv Channel 198 to catch the action live 24/7, or watch the daily highlights show on M-Net (DStv Channel 101/102) and AfricaMagic (DStv Channel 114) every day at 18h30.
