BIG Brother Mzansi (BBM) paired housemates — Ex and Lebo became the first to leave the game on Sunday evening after being given an ultimatum by Big Brother. Fortunately for them, they did not leave empty handed, but left with a R100,000 prize money.After a spate of both good and bad luck for the pair during their short stay in the house, Biggie gave them an offer they could not refuse during Sunday’s live eviction show.

As fate would have it, Ex answered the red telephone and Biggie ordered him to exit the house with Lebo in tow. Once on stage, the pair was given an ultimatum — it was either they take R100,000,00 and exit the game or they reject it and stay in the running for the ultimate    R2 million prize. After much dilly dallying, the two could not reach a consensus.

While Lebo wanted to take the money and run, Ex was more eager to continue with playing the game.

“You’ve gained enough exposure to go on with your Rap career and this is enough to set you up,” Lebo reasoned with her partner.

Ex was not convinced but suddenly shed a few tears and nodded; “I’ll do it for her.”

After composing himself, he told BBM host Lungile Radu that he was taking the money for Lebo’s sake.

Though it is the end of Lebo and Ex’s Big Brother Mzansi journey, the two certainly fought a good fight and thoroughly entertained Mzansi.

Meanwhile, four Housemates, Bongi, Mathius, Sibu and Khali are up for possible eviction from the game this Sunday. — BigBrotherMzansi/Showbiz Reporter
