Big Brother Africa 2013:Search For Big Brother Africa 2013 Housemates Begins

The eighth season of Big Brother Africa has been confirmed to hit screens yet again, much to the delight and excitement of viewers and fans of the show. 
     StarGame brought much entertainment with the never ending drama which the housemates provided in great abundance and the twists and turns that Biggie always had up his sleeve, “This is Big Brother!” Remember that bold voice? Pay-per-view cable television provider MNet has said the search for housemates for the 2013 edition of the Big Brother Africa reality television show, begins on January 8.

“The demand from audiences for Big Brother Africa continues undimmed. In some ways it really is astonishing to see the enthusiasm for this particular series, but in other ways it is to be expected,” M-Net Africa Managing Director says.
    “Viewers want to see unscripted television, as it happens, with normal people that they can relate to dealing with completely familiar emotional concepts – happiness, frustration, success, failure, hope, anxiety, friendship, opportunity and of course, love.

“Big Brother continues to be a ratings sensation from Australia to India, and in Africa, for exactly this reason. And the format’s flexibility is a producers’ dream because you can do something different every time!” he adds.

“We are delighted with the new concept that has been developed for the upcoming show,” says Endemol MD Sivan Pillay.

“Every year as soon as we know that we are going ahead with a new season, we head into a creative brainstorming session and every year, ideas just go racing around the room. Dates and venues are yet to be announced.

After 49 days in Upville, Barbz is out of StarGame.
Africa has spoken! South African model, Barbz became the latest Housemate to be booted out of StarGame. As expected, Goldie broke down into a heap of tears as she stood in the centre of the lounge and revealed her 'Save and Replace' decision.

South African Model Barbz

The Nigerian Housemate told her fellow Starmates she was not thinking straight when she saved Prezzo, instead of Barbz. Barbz calmly told Goldie "It's okay," while Keitta scrambled to do some last minute packing. Goldie dropped to her knees and begged for forgiveness, as everyone looked on in shock.

When Barbz was told her time in the House was up, she hugged everyone and went up to Goldie to give her a farewell hug. She then walked the Live Stage one last time and told Live Show Presenter, IK, that she had suffered 3rd degree burns after Goldie's betrayal.

"Luckily I have people who love me and people who will take care of me when I get back home," she said.

Big Brother Star Game 2012: Seventh week Nominations Barbz, Maneta & Prezzo nominated

As the Big Brother Africa 2012 is moving on seventh week therwe was nominations in the Upvilel and this nominations puts three housemates up from Evction,For some reason, Roki and Keitta dodged the Nominations dagger. Perhaps Keitta hasn't stepped on any toes yet since he's still pretty new in Upville but Roki has definitely rub some Upvillers the wrong way.

However, Roki's been strategically planting stories amongst the Housemates, which led to them nominating each other and totally forgetting about him. Maneta got the highest Nominations (4) followed by Prezzo and Barbz who both got three Nominations, Goldie and Lady May both got two Nominations each.

Goldie nominated Maneta and Lady May, Prezzo put up Barbz and Maneta, Maneta returned the favour to Prezzo and Goldie, surprisingly stabbed his girlfriends Barbz and Maneta and Roki thought he could follow suite. It was quite disturbing that Roki repeated the same mistake of nominating his fellow countrymate but one of his many reasons for doing so was that she dislikes him. Lady May put up Prezzo and Goldie for not pulling their weight when she was HoH and finally,Barbz nominated Prezzo and Lady May.


It is all up to Goldie to save either Barbz, Lady May or Prezzo.
Update:


Later Goldie did not hesitate to save her man from the Eviction gallows this evening.

The Nigerian singer is Head of House this week and as HoH, has the power to 'Save and Replace' any Housemate she chooses. The Starmate she chose to save was none other than the love of her life, Prezzo (as if she would pick anyone else). In Prezzo's place, Goldie did not hesitate to put up Upville newbie Keitta.

Before Goldie went into the Diary Room to make the swap, Prezzo smiled like the cat that got the cream. He obviously had no doubts whatsoever, that his lady would come through for him. Goldie gave things away also by eyeballing the other Housemates and asking "Who could have done this to Prezzo?" as she walked to the Diary Room to reveal her 'Save and Replace' decision. Little does Goldie know that the man she lives for has gone behind her back and gossiped about her. Hows that for loyalty? 

Well, it looks like Prezzo's strategy has worked for him beautifully. He made up with Goldie after giving her the run around, just in time for the crucial Nominations.

Big Brother Star Game: Keagan and Junia Enter Upville while Lee and Jesica were Evicted

As the Big Brother Africa 2012 also known as Big Brother Star Game is moving seventh week the excitement under and outside the big Brother Africa House have been in top. This Sunday two of the housemates Keagan from South Africa and Junia from namibia  Enter Upville.For the first time in StarGame history two Housemates have been upgraded to Upville.Keagan and Junia have become the newest members of the VIP House.After that IK read out the voting results and revealed that the first person to be upgraded to Upville to is her StarGame partner Junia. The two ladies hugged it out and said their goodbyes and then Jesica left the stage.
As soon as she entered Upville, Junia expressed her thoughts on how who she wishes will be the second upgraded Downville, saying: “I hope it’s not Keagan, I hope it’s Lee”.

Kegan and Junia

       Earlier on while up on the Live Eviction Stage StarGame presenter IK grilled Junia about the number of guys she has kissed in the House. Over the past six weeks she has kissed four guys in total – Alex, Ola, Lee and separated from Leeand over the past six weeks Keagan has always had his more sensible StarGame partner to watch his back during all of his shenanigans. So how will Keagan measure up amongst the backstabbing Housemates of Upville without his wingman? We’ll have to wait and see.


Eviction 
Tonight it was once again that time of the week that all of the StarGamers dread when Africa bids goodbye to more of the Big Brother Housemates. Namibian dame Jesica was the first Housemate to bow out of Big Brother House tonight.
During the Live Eviction Show StarGame presenter IK grilled the Namibian beauty about her relationship with Luke. According to her it is true love, she said: “It’s real, I don’t play with my feelings like that,” before adding “Liberia here I come.” Let’s hope Luke feels the same way.
This week it was the Namibian girls and the South African boys Lee and Keagan that were up for eviction. Voting results are calculated according to the total votes within each country, and only one housemate wins the vote for that country based on majority. Those country votes are then counted to a total of 15 votes, giving the final voting result.

Jesica from Namibia

Lee, the lovable South African cutie was the second Housemate to exit the Big Brother House tonight.
Lee stood on the Live Eviction Stage next to his StarGame partner Keagan while being grilled by StarGame presenter IK about the status of his relationship with Upville newbie Junia.
“You do what you have to survive,” said Lee about their kiss in the Jacuzzi. Wow… we wonder how Junia would feel about how the Downville really feels about their smooch.

Lee From South Africa

IK then read out the voting results saying: “Lee you have been evicted from the Big Brother House.” Lee took the news well and made a graceful exit off of the Live Eviction Stage. But Keagan was clearly upset by the news of his separation from his wingman. He even looked like he was about to break down into tears as the fellas said their final goodbyes.

Big Brother Africa 2012: Namibia and South Africa up for nomination

This week, Namibia and South Africa are at Africa's mercy, after being randomly nominated during the Live Eviction Show.
 For the first time since StarGame began, two Housemates will be shipped off to snazzy Upville this coming Sunday.

 Lee, Junia, Keagan and Jesica will all be battling for Africa's vote as the race to the finale heats up. It is important to note that the two who will be upgraded to Upville do not need to be country pairs.
 This evening, the Housemates watched from their television in the Downville lounge as the random lottery balls bubbled in the selector. Although many of the Downvillers tried to play it cool as they awaited their fate, the fear in their eyes could not be hidden. When Junia and Jesica's country ball popped up, Jesica looked stunned.

Junia did not waste any time and broke down into a heap of tears. Keagan smiled uneasily then cracked a joke, while Lee quickly made a beeline for a cigarette. A cigarette for the pain?

Who will be Upgraded to Upville next week? Make your voice count by voting for your favourite Housemates!

Big Brother Star game 2012: DKB & Zainab are evicted due to disqualification

DKB and Zainab have been disqualified from StarGame for contravening the violence rule.

The Sierra Leonean model Zainab was transferred in to the upville after she got highest number of votes on random nomination and Ghanaian comedian DKB who was already in upville from the very beginning engaged in an argument in the afternoon which resulted in violence. The Big Brother rules state clearly that; Any Housemate who becomes physically violent will be removed from the House immediately. When Big Brother made the announcement, DKB was in the Diary Room while Zainab was curled in the Glass House.

DKB and Zainab fighting

Violence can refer to self-inflicted violence, or violence towards another. Violence includes provocation, goading, bullying and victimisation.

In addition, Big Brother refered Housemates to the following rule:

Housemates will be disqualified by Big Brother if they have broken any of the rules or undermined the world of Big Brother. In this event they cannot return and may be replaced.

Having reviewed the footage, Big Brother has come to the following decision:
“DKB – you have been disqualified from the game for contravening the violence rule. You must pack your bags immediately, and take them to Storeroom. You must say goodbye to your Housemates and then leave the house through the Storeroom. DKB, leave the Diary Room immediately, and pack your bags,” Big Brother said.

To Zainab, Big Brother said; “having reviewed the footage very carefully, Big Brother can come to no other conclusion than that your provocation of DKB contributed substantively to the incident. For this reason, Big Brother has concluded that you have also been disqualified. Once DKB has left the House, you too will pack your bags and take them to the storeroom. You will then say goodbye to your Housemates, and leave through the storeroom.”
Zainab, Big Brother will let you know when you can leave the Glass House and go upstairs to pack your bags. So after this eviction due to disqualification there will be no eviction on upville this week.

Brother Star game 2012: Keitta was save, while Mildred Eve and Edith was out Big

Lots of things are happening the house of big brother star game after it was started in may and now after the random nomination of fourth third week  Keitta was upgraded to Upville last Sunday  Mildred however, was not there to share in her man's joy.Mildred went full steam ahead with her plans to ignore the Live Eviction Show.

Keitta

The Ghanaian Housemate slowly made the 60 second walk outside of the Downville House alongside Keitta, Eve and Edith with a hoodie covering her hair. Unlike previous Eviction Shows where the Housemates have to contend with long, drawn-out suspense, IK called all the Evicted Housemates to the stage, leaving some of the Downvillers baffled.

Keitta had to take the stressful Live Eviction Stage walk without his Brazilian weave less girlfriend by his side.

After minutes of suspense, the three Nominated Housemates huddled on stage, before Keitta was announced as the latest Downviller to be upgraded to cushy Upville. Mildred could not be a part of her man's big moment, because she had elected to languish backstage, courtesy of her bad hair day. He got neither a hug nor a kiss on the Eviction stage, to toughen him up for the long road ahead.

Keitta moving to Upville is sure to cause more than a lot of drama. It is no secret that Zainab has a crush on the Ghanaian.

Keitta has maintained in Diary Sessions (with his girlfriend looking on) that he thinks Zainab is a nice person, but is not interested in her romantically. Zainab is known to be very strong willed and is not afraid to go for what she wants.

Will she wear Keitta down and hook up with him now that Keitta and Mildred have been separated? What are your thoughts?

Big Brother Star Game 2012: Mampi have to say Goodbye

It was that time of the week again that no Housemate looks forward to. Last week, three people were put up for eviction from upville and after stressful seven days since Mampi, Lady May and Maneta were nominated.  Last Sunday  Mampi was chosen to leave the House. The Zambian star had the least votes and is the first Upville Housemate to go. While the girls were getting ready half an hour before the show, Mampi said to Maneta, Prezzo and Barbz that she’s “very happy to be there but her heart is not.” Maneta then said that Mampi misses home. Do you think she’s happy and relieved to be going? The girls then put their bags downstairs, they could hear the crowd cheering next door, which made them, including us, nervous.

Mampi

The show kicked off with a performance by Tanzanian hip-hop artist, Diamond. Namibian DJ, Umculo, was next to perform and presented a mix to the audience.

Big Brother presenter, IK, then switched to Upville where they could see and hear him on the screen. DKB was asked to stand up and tell Africa who he nominated, to which he said Lady May. Lady May jumped up from the couch and said "I knew it!" She stood very confident while waving her flag. Mampi was a lot less confident and looked very nervous as she waved to the cameras. Lady May was told that she's safe, which left Maneta and Mampi standing side by side.

IK told Maneta that she was safe, and at that moment, Mampi knew she was the one leaving. She gave the rest of the Housemates a hug and made her way out. Mampi then came onto the stage where she was interviewed by IK. The ex-Housemate said that she thinks Zainab has the potential to win because she's "crazy."

IK then turned to the random Nomination machine to see which Downville Housemates get nominated. Ghana's Keitta and Mildred were selected first. A second random Nomination was conducted, to which Botswana's Edith and Eve were selected.

Here is how Africa voted this week (27 May 2012) – Mampi has unfortunately been eliminated from the Upville House.

Here's who which country voted for:

Angola: Lady May
Botswana: Maneta
Ghana: Lady May
Kenya: Lady May

Malawi: Lady May
Namibia: Lady May
Nigeria: Lady May
South Africa: Lady May
Sierra Leone: Lady May
Tanzania: Lady May
Uganda: Lady May
Zambia: Mampi

Nigeria's Ola and Chris are out from the House of the Big Brother Star Game.
In their Diary Session Friday, Ola and Chris sat with heavy hearts, prompting Big Brother to ask them what was on their minds.
Ola broke the ice by declaring that after consultation with the House Doctor, he would like to Voluntarily Exit the Big Brother House. He said that he has thought about it and since the medication he is on does not seem to be taking well, would like to seek medical attention outside of the Big Brother House.

Chris of Nigeria

A sombre-looking Chris added that he understands completely. "Yes, this is a game. However, we can’t play with our lives."
“Health is wealth”, Ola added. The two were instructed by Biggie to leave the Diary Room and speak to their fellow Housemates, to explain the situation.

The two Nigerian Housemates have to leave the House with immediate effect, seeing as their Voluntary Exit has been prompted by a serious medical condition that needs urgent attention.
