lined up on the day during news hour.
Interestingly, there are children who value the day and they make sure they spoil their mothers. My mother stays in Gweru and the only thing I could do was to call her.
Besides the Mother’s Day hullabaloo, on DStv’s channel 198 Big Brother Amplified was an eye full.
It’s been a week since the 26 housemates went into the house and already we’re starting to know the true colours of the housemates. We have seen the first kiss, women strutting their stuff butt naked and all, but Biggie decided to divide the housemates into two groups.
One group went into another house called “Heads” while another group of 11 housemates called the “Tails” went into a different house but similar to the one they first got into.
On Big Brother Amplified you have to keep guessing as to what next Biggie has in store and apparently the housemates were called on the live eviction show. Each housemate was asked to pick a coloured glove and was to be housed according to the colours they had picked.
In the Tails house there is Nkuli and Luclay both South Africans, the Zambians Mumba and Kim, the Tanzanians Bhoke and Lotus, Nic from Kenya, Miss P from Botswana, Ernest from Uganda, Alex from Ghana and Nigerian Karen.
The Zimbabwean duo of Vimbai Mutinhiri and Wendall Parson went into the same house and that means the two will compete against each other for a place.
Already that seems to be the problem for Vimbai, the top model whose American accent has been queried.
Those who know Vimbai will confess that the accent is part of her upbringing. She comes from a well-to-do family and she attended some of the best schools you can get in Zimbabwe and abroad.
But generally Zimbabweans who appear in Big Brother reality series are always seen as people who fake their accents and yet those who dare to question do not appreciate the high quality education in the country.
Those who are clever enough will soon find out that Vimbai will always be the same throughout the show.
So far it’s been good for Wendall because he doesn’t have a stigma at all. Since he is a pilot most people, especially fans of the opposite sex have fallen in love with his profession.
Though he is reserved he makes sure he makes sense all the time and people love him for that. We hope he doesn’t lose out in the first week as Quintin from South Africa did in the last season!
