Roki leaves the house after the disqualification
In memory of the game and the players, today we are continuing with
part two of a brief flash back into the lives of our former StarGamers
while still in Biggie’s house. Among the housemates, there were some
characters that left a mark on the show.
Having tackled 9 couples yesterday, today we continue with the rest of the housemates.
Sierra Leone’s debut season in the game presented us with two beautiful ladies;
Dalphin and
Zainab.
Zainab in particular will for a long period of time be remembered in
the history of Big Brother as an out spoken person, not even the
‘swagged’ up lads in
Seydou and DKB would step on her little toes and get away with it. Well, she had the opportunity to be elevated to Upville but was disqualified for reasons will all vividly remember. As for Dalphin, she was evicted on the same night Zainab was upgraded.
Julio and
Hilda
from Tanzania were the first pair to be evicted after only a week in
the house. However, while in the house, Hilda was regarded by many as
the ‘mother’ of the house because of her care and personality, Julio on
the other hand was a ‘cool’ dude who was social for the time that he was
in the house.
Kyle and
Jannette
from Uganda are the only StarGamers that stayed longer in the house as a
couple. Kyle was a finalist while Jannette got evicted a week to the
Grand Finale. Kyle was a laid back person and regarded by many as a a
disciplined housemate. As for Jannette, she was so much associated with
the bottle, she used to drink like a fish, the house also exposed her
alter ego – ‘lola fiyas’.
Zambian dames;
Talia and Tamara
were also very interesting sisters, they had a few altercations among
themselves during the show. Talia fell in love with Seydou and later
with
Keagan, she cried like a baby when Seydou left but found solace in Keagan, she was a finalist.
Maneta and
Teclar
from Zimbabwe also graced the show and if we are to talk about this
pair, am sure we need more time than we have at hand. Well, to cut the
long story short, Teclar left the house within a week while Maneta
survived the evictions and made it to Upville but was disqualified after
contravening the house rules.
Meanwhile, the show also had 7 celebrity housemates from across the
continent, these were housed in Upville, they were very interesting
personalities and their contribution to the show can’t be over looked.
To begin with, Ghanaian comedian DKB had a few face offs with the
ladies but the famous or infamous act was the one he had with Zainab,
this particular one led to his disqualification. However, he has since
apologized for his wrong doings.
Model
Barbz
from South Africa was another celebrity, she was generally a very
interesting person, outspoken and tolerant, she had a face off with
Prezzo in the early stages of the game. She was evicted a few weeks to the Finals.
Kenyan rapper and now a ONE Campaign Ambassador was a second runner
up but prior to that, he had an on again/off again ‘relationship’ in the
house with
Goldie, he was also a very out spoken person and everyone who watched the show have their own perception of the former housemate.
‘Thunder Thighs’ dancer and singer
Mampi
was yet another housemate in Upville who was known for her ‘gossip’
with Maneta and energetic dancing, she was evicted after a few weeks
into the show.
Hmmmm….
Lady May!
If you don’t remeber her then you need to check your books well. The
pink heeled Namibian singer was a kind of person who would sleep out
side on a cold night and speak her mind irrespective of what others
think. She was also a finalist.
Roki
from Zimbabwe was another celebrity who lived in Upville with 6 others.
He was a social and non violent person until Maneta stepped in. He was
disqualified together with Maneta after the two contravened Biggie’s
house rules.
We are winding up the list with Nigerian emotional songstress Goldie.
She was so close to Prezzo although their ‘intimacy’ had a lot of
problems,
we assume. She was like the ‘mother’ of Upville, she
never left the kitchen and always made sure that everything was in place
and tidy. She was evicted a few weeks to the Finale. Well, for those
who care to know, Prezzo is trying to patch things up as regards his
relationship with Goldie, he says he would marry her! Hmmmm…
Which Housemate(s) do you miss the most?
