Two disruptors Big Brother Mzansi disruptor eliminated: Neo and Fahima speak
It was a double whammy on Big Brother Mzansi last night as two contestants were eliminated from getting the 2 million. This time around, those booted out of the house were the disruptors, Fahima and Neo, with Lawrence revealing to the rest of the house that it was infested with disruptors who were tasked to… well, disrupt.
He further announced that the house has zero disruptors now, leaving Taki to now fight for the 2 million with the rest of the housemates. Taki was informed of this in the diary room session, which left him in total disbelief. It’s game on for him.
We caught up with the two ladies, who were both in high spirits, and both shared that they were ready to take on the world.
Neo says being a disruptor meant uk’mosha (messing up) for her, and that meant stretching herself beyond her usual boundaries to see how much of a disruption she could cause. Knowing her limits, she believes she did all that she could, with a slight room for improvement.
“I am happy with what I did, and to have been part of the show has been a surreal experience. One that you can’t really prepare for because you never know what to expect in a house full of strangers,” she added, adding that challenges come with navigating people’s personalities.
“Some people wake up moody, and you don’t know what’s up,” she added.
Neo says she isn’t that disappointed with leaving because she believes her exit is the beginning of a whole world of opportunities that have opened up for her.
“Being the HOH was an organic position for me because I love leadership roles, although sometimes I’d have to speak a little louder so I was heard, but overall, getting to lead the house was an experience. And having to play both roles of being a disruptor and a leader all at once was a growing experience for me. I learned a lot about myself and what it means to work with others,” she added.
Fahima says being out of the house is a bittersweet experience because she will miss the people she has grown close to over the past three weeks, but she has also missed her child and family, whom she is excited to see.
But now that this journey has come to an end, she is ready to go back to making music, as that is her way of relieving her stress.
“The next step is definitely knocking on doors to get to the right people for my career. Before coming to the house, I didn’t think I was making enough music as much as I was supposed to, but being in the house has boosted my confidence so much. It was a beautiful space to be confined to because of all the different personalities that were there.
“Being a disruptor was not that difficult but what made it difficult was the fact that I know I get scared easily. I was just scared of being caught the entire time, but looking back, I did a whole lot. Hiding the pictures, hiding cosmetic bags, the toothpaste thing—I did a lot, and I believe I achieved my mission.
“What I believe I could have done differently was engage more and not be so much of an introvert. It’s just that being in a space like that sort of gets one into their shell, although the people that knew me like McJunior got to experience me in totality. My goofy side, my fun side, but once there were a lot of people, I never knew how much that affected my energy until I got to the Big Brother house. I am usually very bubbly; a lot of my friends would probably be shocked to see me that shy, etc.,” she added.
If both ladies say they would bet their money on any of the housemates taking the prize money, it would definitely be McJunoir.
Fahima shares, “McJunior is a very smart guy; let’s not downplay that. He is very smart and very competitive, and I will be praying and fasting for him to get it.”
The live show started with a much-loved performance from Mthandeni SK and Lwah Ndlunkulu.
