LATEST ON BBA AMPLIFIED

 Hi readers, enjoy the lates on BBA Amplified.. cheers.

ATTRACTION IN THE HOUSE....
Hanni and Lomwe stole a few moments away from the maddening crowd and cuddled on the white couch in the lounge to talk about their relationship and how they wanted to deal with it moving forward.

This was after they had been drinking alcohol, singing and dancing in celebration of their presentation Task.

Lomwe made it clear that he wanted to have fun and if it felt right, he would go with the flow even though he didn't want to force anything.

The blushing Ethiopian lass stared into Lomwe's eyes before telling him that she didn't mind him doing whatever he wanted with anyone in the House.
However, Hanni made it clear that she would definitely tell him if any of his actions made her feel uncomfortable.

Lomwe gave her a nod of approval before saying; "deal!"

Hanni and Lomwe had been spending quite a lot of time together during the Week and some of the Housemates had started asking questions about whether or not they were attracted to each other.



Michael was the smooth operator of Thursday night, trying to get his way with Nkuli in the garden and later cornering Weza in the bathroom.

It has transpired that Nkuli and the Mozambican Housemate have a history and Michael kept pestering her to come out and be the Nkuli that he knows.

"There's nothing wrong with you being you. Follow your desires," Michael said to her as he tried pulling her closer.

Nkuli admitted that she enjoyed spending time with him but said there was no chance of them doing the nasty.

Michael ended the conversation by telling her that he misses her.

Michael then followed Weza into the House and started declaring his undying love to her. He told her how much she confuses him particularly her voice.

However, Weza instantly dismissed him and told him that he owed it to his girlfriend to behave in the House.
 
                                                                               DIRTY DANCING........................................
As the alcohol flowed, so did the excitement in the garden as the dance moves got raunchier and raunchier leading to a sizzling session of dirty dancing.

The Housemates were done with their presentation speeches Task and it was time to celebrate, thanks to the supplies Biggie stashed in the storeroom for them.

With Lomwe lying flat on his back on the lawn, the girls took turns performing dirty dance moves on him with the music blasting.

Millicent took it up a notch, shaking her booty while suspended above Lomwe and sipping alcohol off Lomwe's belly button.

Once Lomwe's session was over, Millicent took to the lawn and placed her body on the 'platter' for the guys to 'entertain' and be 'entertained'.

There was no doubt that it would be a long night as the Housemates swore on having utmost fun.
 
 
 
 
                                                                               Wendall admitted to Bhoke that he is afraid of
commitment saying that he doesn't even think he has ever been in love.

The Zimbabwean Housemate shocked his Housemates earlier in the Audition Week when he told them that he was still a virgin.

The two were seated outside while Wendall enjoyed his beer. Wendall said he had been in a relationship before but wouldn't say he was in love because it took him only four days to get over it.

Bhoke said this was because he was still too young but Wendall disagreed. He said there was hardly a difference between a 23 year old and a 26 year old even though Bhoke felt she was far older than him.

Bhoke justified her statement by raising the issue of the biological clock, marriage and serious partners.

Wendall advised her to stop looking for marriage, "it will come, just have fun."

Meanwhile, the other Housemates were also chilling outside enjoying their drinks and chatting after their presentation speeches Task.
 
                                                                                     
WEZA SMOKES....................................
 Assuming no one was watching, Weza snuck behind the big red couch outside to steal a few puffs off a cigarette.

A worried Karen tried reaching for her but the Angolan babe would not budge, insisting that she was actually trying to reach for her transmitter belt.

Once in the open, Weza admitted to feeling rather dizzy since she hadn't smoked in a while.

The Housemates were having celebratory drinks courtesy of Big Brother after their presentation speeches Task.

Although Biggie saved the Audition Week results for Sunday, the Housemates were treated to alcohol, cigarettes and goodies.
 
 
 

Audition Week Results on Sunday
 The Housemates gave it their all during the speech presentation Task but Big Brother decided that they would know their fate on how they had faired during the entire Auditions Week on Sunday.

The good news though was that Biggie had a little surprise for them stashed in the storeroom in the form of a variety of supplies, which included alcohol and goodies.

During the presentations, Alex challenged his Housemates to go out there and make a mark that cannot be erased.

Meanwhile, Confidence told them that the fabric of her dress was made after Nkrumah who made it possible for Ghana to be the first African country to gain independence.

Here's how the rest of the Housemates presented:


Nic: "There's no traditional dress in Kenya because no dress is forced on anyone. I have cleaned bums, picked mushrooms but it's the first time being in Big Brother Africa."

The soft-spoken Danny couldn't stop laughing and highlighted how much he loved being an African and being part of Big Brother Amplified.

Felicia was carrying a clay pot made in Malawi. She said women have more power than men.

Lomwe followed his sister and gave a description of the Malawian flag. He said his country was like a diamond in the dirt waiting to be found, which was why most people didn't know much about it. He said he too was like that diamond.

Michael started his speech with a Portuguese song before saluting his country's heroes. He wore a traditional cloth called 'skapulana' because it was the first thing his mom carried him in.

Namibian's Jossy and Bernadina also gave a brief on their country. Bernadina took the Housemates through the meanings of the colours of the Namibian flag.

Karen was wearing beads that symbolise that a young woman has turned into a woman. She said it is worn during parties, weddings and other celebrations. Vina said she was of the "Kimaya" tribe. She also said she knew she was beautiful because everyone had told her that then she sang a song.

Nkuli was clad in Xhosa garb and said it was because she too was of the "Xhosa" tribe. She said wearing the dress made her feel like she was on trial like former South African president Nelson Mandela who is also Xhosa.

Sharon O, a Muganda woman showed off one of her creations as a fashion designer. She said she had made the outfit out of two pairs of jeans.
Zimbabwe's Wendall aka Nibbles made it known to his Housemates that "I'm White but I'm more African than all of you."

The plot thickens!

Latest on Big Brother Africa 2011 "M- Net's Big Brother Gets Amplified

Running 91 days and 24/7 with a dream grand prize of USD 200 000, the sixth season of Africa’s biggest reality show will include more of the drama, the emotion, the excitement and the suspense that have made the series a firm fan favourite.

And it’s all going to be amplified!

So says M-Net Africa Managing Director Biola Alabi who heads up the channel’s initiatives across the continent. “By definition amplified means to increase the volume, to make louder, to make more powerful. And that’s exactly what we want to do with season six. To take the elements that audiences find so fantastic and present them in a refreshing new way while adding big surprises and entertaining twists. Amplified is such a well-known pop culture term and Big Brother has definitely become a pop culture success. So the name fits perfectly.”

With a dramatic new eye, etched in a carbon fibre background with an edgy, futuristic feeling and with a sophisticated polished reflective finish, the newly unveiled show logo sets the scene for a bold new season!

With the deadline for entries now closed and the next phase of selection now well under way to choose housemates from the 14 participating countries (Angola, Botswana, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Nigeria, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe), Big Brother Amplified is on track to launch in little over a month!

“We received an unprecedented amount of entries this year,” says Alabi. “It’s been truly phenomenal, with almost 7000 written entries received from across the continent and countless more people attending the ‘last chance’ open auditions. We’ve had people from all walks of life from very different backgrounds with completely different aspirations …all take this one opportunity to enter Big Brother. It’s really heartening to see that if anything, the show is going from strength to strength.”

Created and produced for M-Net by Endemol South Africa, the series will once again be hosted by charismatic IK Osakioduwa, who has been at the heart of the action since he joined the show two seasons ago. With a brand new house also under construction, it’s a matter of weeks before Big Brother Amplified hits DStv screens!

Also, "Exciting Partnership Announced"
Two of Africa’s biggest brands are uniting around the continent’s biggest reality series as Coca Cola and M-Net today announced their exciting new partnership for the upcoming BIG BROTHER AMPLIFIED. The world’s largest soft drink brand has become a headline sponsor for M-Net’s 91 day reality super-series set to launch on DStv on Sunday May 1.

Fresh New Future
According to M-Net Africa Managing Director Biola Alabi, the relationship between the two companies opens a fresh new future for the Big Brother Africa franchise. “We are thrilled that Coca Cola, one of the most innovative and iconic companies on the globe has formed a strategic alliance with M-Net for what is our most dynamic show on the continent. This is a testament to the power of this series and the enduring popularity it enjoys with audiences through Africa for its themes of African unity, cultural diversity and fun entertainment.”

She goes on to say, “M-Net is confident that with Coca Cola we can bring to Big Brother fans, whose loyalty to and enthusiasm for the series is the driving force behind its success, a fantastic fresh new season of Big Brother!”
Coca-Cola Nigeria marketing director, Austin Ufomba said "Coca-Cola is delighted to partner with M-Net to refresh and amplify Big Brother Africa, the hugely popular reality TV show that has become a unifying entertainment platform for the continent's youth".

Passion Points
He explained his company's rationale for the partnership. "This partnership advances our objective to connect to our consumers' passion points. It also presents us with a valued opportunity to help dial up integrative cross-cultural conversations among the youth of this very diverse continent."

He continues, "As a brand, Coca-Cola has consistently promoted Friendship, Optimism and Happiness - all of which are values that Big Brother Africa equally espouses. Our partnership with M-Net on this franchise will give the viewers a more intense experience of Open Happiness during the 91 days of this new season, aptly tagged 'Big Brother Amplified'. Our flagship brand will be supported in this task by Eva, our premium bottled water; Cappy, our fruity juice brand; and Sprite, our edgy lifestyle brand. Significantly, Big Brother Amplified will begin airing in May 2011, when we celebrate Coca-Cola's 125th Anniversary".

Amplified!
With the logo of the show released recently, the countdown to BIG BROTHER AMPLIFIED has intensified as the final rounds of selection are completed and the show’s producers Endemol put the finishing touches to a redesigned BIG BROTHER house.
