Lotus has been disqualified from Big Brother Amplified and has been asked to leave the House immediately. Lotus had a fight with Luclay which turned nasty and she slapped him. The mood was sober in the House. Kim cried hysterically as they helped Lotus pack her clothes. Nic, Danny, Karen, Mumba and Kim helped Lotus with her stuff and she remained calm.

For his role in the fight, Luclay will take over all dish washing duties as well as House cleaning duties while he remains in the House. "These duties will be yours and yours alone. Your treatment of your fellow contestants and your language will be under very close scrutiny at all times," Big Brother said to Luclay. Big Brother made the announcement in the afternoon about two hours after the fight. Biggie stated clearly that lotus had broken the Rules of the game and had to leave.

This is what Big Brother said:
The Big Brother House Rules state very clearly that: Any Housemate who becomes physically violent will be removed from the House immediately.
In addition, the Rules also make it very clear that: Housemates will be disqualified by Big Brother if they have broken any of the rules or undermined the world of Big Brother. In this event they cannot return and may be replaced. Earlier today, Lotus and Luclay were involved in a quarrel. Initially verbal, and then physical, At any time, either of the Housemates could have voluntarily walked away. Unfortunately this was not the case, and Lotus slapped Luclay. The confrontation, however, involved two parties. Luclay, your behaviour was also provocative, and even though Lotus asked you "not to continue"-you did.

Luclay showed no emotion as he sat quietly until Big Brother was done then moved outside with Nic while everyone else helped Lotus pack.

Sunday is always a sad day for someone in the bigbrother Amplified house because it is the day they're loose the race for $200,000
This sunday was no different as it marked the end of the journey for south African housemate "Nkuli".
The gamble Luclay made within the week by not nominating any housemate for eviction, which automatically put HIM on eviction seems to have paid Off.

Nkuli, will be missed in the house. She will be remembered by the housemates and viewers for her Squicky, seductive Voice and High pitched Weird way of laughing.

We wish them the best. Miss P is crossed to the tails house.
Fingers crossed for Monday's nominations.

[Briggz5d]

After all the rants, yelling and mischief luclay has been upto which made him an easy target for nominations, he managed to escape. This will further grow his already annoying Ego.

Karen who most Nigerians didn't like at the beginning is fast becoming a favorite. Most People thought she'll be out on her very first nomination but she survived it.

Nic who is seen as a strong player got the boot along with Danny. naturally Danny threw his Fuse back at Alex. haa Miss P will miss Nic the most, judging from her tears.  And the game continues.

The Game Just got more interesting - As Housemates in the separate houses have now been Mixed together in One House - More Drama, More Action...
Lets not forget Felicia Took the plunge last week when Vina had no choice but to save herself..
The Game Continues

[Briggz5d]

Miss P, Alex, Weza, Sharon O & karen were nominated this last week. As head of house karen had the chance to save herself and pu someone else up for eviction but she didn't. She said she had no good reason to nominate any other housemate.

Nigerian artists, Ice prince & Brymo rocked the Bigbrother amplified stage with their hit songs - Superstar and Oleku.
Miss P, was evicted first, followed by Alex - they blamed the strategy they used by trying to turn the girls against each other by fight for Alex.
Weza was next to be evicted - she thinks messing with Luclay & Alex messed up her chances of survival.

Sharon O and karen are safe this week.
Fuse Blown were directed at karen who has to pack all her cloths to the store room and wear borrowed cloths all week. Mumbai has to put on a clowns make-up all week.
The game continues...

[Briggz5d]

After Monday's nominations The following housemates were nominated:
Vina, bernardina, Lomwe, Wendal & Zeus.

As head of house, Vimbai has the option to save one housemate. The obvious choice is Wendal since they're of the same country. During the past week he has had major beef with karen, and everyone expected her to switch karen which would make 2 Nigerians up for nomination.

When it was decision time, Vimbai switched Wendal and put Mumba up for nomination.
This leaves Vina, Bernardina, Lomwe, Zeus & Mumba up for nomination.
So let the voting begin... bigbrotherafrica.dstv.com/Vote

[Briggz5d]

3 Housemates left the Bigbrother Amplified house this Sunday.
Vina, Lomwe, Mumba, Bernardina & Zeus were up for eviction, and after all the votes came in Bernardina was First to be Evicted, followed by Mumba and lastly Zeus was called out.

A lot of controversy surrounded the romance between Zeus and karen. He insisted he had a Girlfriend but still played around with karen who has totally fallen for him. A lot of fans and housemates were of the opinion that he was using karen to stay out of nominations and win Votes.

The evicted housemates Blew 2 Fuss at Luclay - 1. he won't receive a message from home this week while other will. 2. he must walk BACKWARDS for the rest of the week.

With only 2 weeks to go housemates can almost smell the money.
Remember it's two winners and 400,000 US Dollars at stake.

This Monday, the Bigbrother amplified housemates had their final Nomination session. It wasn't easy for most housemates as they have grown fond of each other and very few enemies to choose from.

The last week of the Bigbrother Africa show is raising more dust than it should. Normally, people are supposed to vote for 2 winners and we find out on Sunday who they are but while voting is going on some people are stiring up controversy!!!

Everyone wants to know who popular celebs are voting for and People like IK (the presenter) and Uti (the last winner of Bigbrother) are olding back their comments for the sake of PEACE! despite the pressure.

One of the Evicted Housemate VIMBAI when asked similar questions said she wants people to vote For Hanni and Wendel.
VIMBAI made it clear that she hated karen while in the house, and today she tweeted
      " I find it so hilarious how people think I hate shrek! If I did I would've swapped her last week. Lol. Its just a game, and its only money"

Clearly referring to Karen As SHREK which is an ugly cartoon character.

Trust Nigerians and Africans who love Karen - they quickly gave VIMBAI a piece of their mind, and ngbuzz joined in too with this tweet;
  " @missvee263 Aka Vimbai - For ur own safety, please delete ur tweet referrin to Karen as "Shrek". she may not mind But Nigerians DO! #BBAmplified "

Maybe VIMBAI didn't think her name calling would attract so much drama but it did, a proper apology Will go a long way In curbing this situation because if it escalates it could threaten VIMBAI's safety In Nigeria!

Whats your take on this? Comments... Replies...

You know that kid in class that sits in the front row, is always first to raise a hand when questions are asked, and knows all the answers to the teachers question? Gets picked up from school by a Limo while you walk home. Yeah that's the picture Vina has successfully painted to other housemates of who she is - the Miss "I KNOW IT ALL".

the Ngbuzz Gossip
Most of the time, people with the above described personality can't help it, it's not their fault they are like that and even annoy people when NOT showing off how smart they are.
Some people want to be friends with that kind of person, while others hate from a distance - Haters can only keep it locked in for a while before they Blow Up!!! And that's exactly what happened this morning when karen Bluntly gave vina a piece of her Mind.

karen: give it to Africa.               Vina: But we are in Africa
karen: I know, we are in BBA.     Vina: But The BBA house is In Africa!!
Karen: why must u always have the last say?? Why must u always be right??

Hehehehe c'mon Vina, clearly that's trying extra hard to prove someone wrong, or trying to make them look stupid. There is nothing wrong with correcting someones mistake, but this time karen said ENOUGH!!!
What started out a a simple conversation turned out to a full blown quarrel with Abusive words and names flying right / left... trust the spear shaped mouth of karen to Send the most Hits at Vina who just smiled.

Here's 10% of the Spears karen threw at Vina:
 " we know your smart and can make money - then why didn't you just get a Job instead of coming to BBA"
" You know it all with your BIG HEAD!! With your black face!!"
" Hypocrite, You do things you tell others not to do - I will say "fukc"  anyhow I want"
" My Mother couldn't change me - Who the fukc so you think you are? "
"Acting like you're Holy, You have had MANY ONE-NIGHT-STANDS TOO!!!"
" You are slutier than me.. Jumping on Lomwe " HE DOESN'T WANT YOU!!!"
"It's the last week so you all are playing it safe.. fukc YOU! I'll say what's on my mind"

" Vina: even people in the ghetto have more manners than karen"
" Vina to karen - I'm black and proud of my skin Colour " - was vina trying to insinuate that Karen bleaches her skin??

These and a lot more words were exchanged.
the whole House felt the Hits and begged karen to stop - I'm surprised Vina didn't cry.
Over the past week the two Nigerians have had several fights and arguments, but this one trumps them all, I see no reconciliation from this one!!

[Aleeluv]

loooooool wow wat a fight...me luv me some cat fights

[Briggz5d]

For the first time IK is joined on the stage by a Co-host and also he went into the BBA house to have a chat with the housemates.. Later on the show, Vina & Hanni were evicted, leaving Sharon O, Luclay, Karen and Wendal who were asked to all come on stage.
Sharon O was next to Leave and the shocker came when A favorite "LUCLAY" was also asked to leave the stage.

With karen and Wendal left standing, the crowd Made loud "BOOOOOO" noises mostly at Wendal as IK declared them the winners of 200,000 Dollars each.
Twitter & Facebook went Wild with the words "WHAT THE eff" almost trending - people showed their disapproval of wendal's win.

Bigbrother Amplified Conspiracy Allegations
People said the Zimbabwean Government had a hand in Wendal's Win. They say maybe the Zimbabwean Government contributed the other 200,000. Others said it was a strategic move to appease them after Munya's Loss.

Vote analysis
Luclay was part if the reason why Lotus left, that automatically lost him that country's Vote and a lot if other toes he stepped on. Ghana and other countries all voted KAREN and let's remember - a country's vote goes only ONE Way - so it's either Luclay OR Karen.

What's your analysis of what happened?? Let's hear what you think!

How Africa Voted:
Vina received zero country votes and was evicted first. Hanni, Lomwe and Sharon O received one country vote each and were also evicted, as was Luclay who received 2 country votes. Karen, with six country votes and Wendall with four country votes have won the Amplified season.


Karen: 6 country votes - Nigeria, Angola, Rest of Africa, Ghana, Mozambique, Tanzania
Wendall: 4 country votes - Zambia, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Kenya
Luclay: 2 country votes - South Africa, Botswana
Lomwe: 1 country vote - Malawi
Sharon O: 1 country vote - Uganda
Hanni: 1 country vote - Ethiopia
