WINNER of last year’s Big Brother Africa (BBA) reality show, Dillish Matthews has wished housemates-to-be good luck as they prepare to embark on the BBA journey in two months’ time.“As the countdown begins, I can’t help but reminisce about some of my most memorable moments in the Big Brother house.

“Good luck to the new housemates and I hope they enjoy the adventure,” Dillish said.

Her life changed last year after she walked away with the top prize money of $300,000. Besides the prize money, she is now a celebrity as she has established a fan base of over 200,000 people across Facebook and Twitter.

Speaking on her thousands of followers which she never had before stepping into the BBA house, Dillish said: “I never dreamt of such a big following and it keeps increasing, which is a great advantage for my career as a personality and model.”

M-Net Africa Regional Director (West Africa) Wangi Wa-Uzoukwu said they had expanded the ways in which BBA audiences could interact with the inclusion of Instagram – an online mobile photo sharing platform.

“This year, even more people will be able to partake in the thrill of Big Brother via their mobile devices and on different platforms. The addition of Instagram, for instance, brings yet another exciting dimension and we look forward to sharing more entertaining content with our fans.”

Endemol MD Sivan Pillay said BBA season nine would be the most exciting season.

“We have been producing the series since 2003 and to keep fans captivated, we have to evolve and this entails finding housemates with a little extra talent and swagger”.

Every year, fans across the continent sit eagerly glued to their screens, waiting tensely to be razzled and dazzled by their favourite Big Brother Africa housemates. With auditions for housemates now at an advanced stage, this year’s season promises to impress with more drama, romance, intrigue and suspense.

Big Brother Africa 9 kicks off on September 7 and will be screened live on DStv channels 197 and 198.
