Lady May touches down

Namibia’s sole finalist in this year’s Big Brother house arrived home on Tuesday evening, meeting journalists for a brief press conference at the Hilton hotel yesterday. The petite singer was in a happy mood, expressing joy at finally being home.

The experience of being in the Big Brother Stargame house for three months was a good one she says, although it was difficult for her to be surrounded by people all the time especially since she is an introvert. ‘It wasn’t easy being good for 91 days. I had a choice, to go in there, challenge myself and be a good girl.’Lady May was probably the most consistent housemate in Stargame and she attributes that to the fact that she was just being herself. Big Brother Stargame was an ideal opportunity for her to prove her critics wrong and she felt that it was easier to do this on TV. ‘I couldn’t afford to go door-to-door to explain myself to people and make them see how I really am,’ she explained. Last year Lady May sparked controversy after raising her middle finger and saying ‘good night motherf*****s!’ at the Namibian Music Awards.Viewers of the reality show had the opportunity to get to know the quiet side of the flamboyant performer who is very reserved and very private. She says that just as her family knows, she likes being alone so keeping to herself throughout the duration of the show was not difficult at all, she actually saw it as a sort of vacation.A very big fan of Big Brother, Lady May sees the show as a great way for people to build character and advises anyone who wants to work on that to enter the show. She will miss the diary sessions with ‘Biggie’.She said he is very funny and that he was the probably the closest person to her, and could always get her to open her mouth.Knowing Lady May, we can only expect more fireworks from her after this. Seeing both sides of her has not only endearsx her more to fans but has also gained her many more new fans in Namibia, as well as Africa.
