Big Brother Africa season 9

Big Brother Africa 9 (also known as Big Brother Africa: Hotshots) was the ninth and final season of the Big Brother Africa reality television series produced by Endemol for M-Net. Production of Season 9 had to be put on hold as the Big Brother house in Highlands North, Johannesburg burnt down.[1] No one was injured in the blaze, which currently has an unknown cause. Producers found and revamped a house for the season nearby in "7th Street" and launched a shorter season of only 63 days on October 5, 2014.[2] Ikponmwosa "IK" Osakioduwa came back to host the show for the sixth time in a row.

Twists

edit

Star-Meter

edit

This season, a twist has been added. It is called the Star-Meter. Each week, IK will ask a question to the viewers on which Housemate qualifies for the asked question. The Housemate with the most votes will receive a prize from Big Brother the following Monday. These are the Star-Meter questions as follows:

Week Question Housemate
2 Which Big Brother Hotshots Housemate has the X-Factor? Tayo
3 Which Big Brother Hotshots Housemate is the sexiest? Tayo
4 Which Big Brother Hotshots Housemate is the sneakiest? Macky 2

7 Which Big Brother Hotshots Housemate is the craziest? Sipe
8 Which Big Brother Hotshots Housemate has got what it takes to win? Sipe

Return of the exes

edit

On Day 42, another twist has been added. Ten ex-housemates had returned to compete against the current housemates. Each ex-housemate was from a country that was still competing in the game. The current housemates had to compete to impress Africa to keep them. If the housemate was not good enough for the fans, then that ex-housemate would replace him/her.

These were the ten ex-housemates:

  • Botswana's Peo from season 6.
  • Ghana's Elikem from season 8.
  • Malawi's Natasha from season 8.
  • Mozambique's Leonel from season 4.
  • Nigeria's Uti from season 3 and season 5.
  • South Africa's Luclay from season 6.
  • Tanzania's Feza from season 8.
  • Uganda's Denzel from season 8.
  • Zambia's Sulu from season 8.
  • Zimbabwe's Vimbai from season 6.

However, this was a prank that Big Brother played to the housemates which will see how the housemates will cope against their competition. The ex-housemates were not competing for the money, but were sent by Big Brother to cause havoc in the house.

The exes left on Day 49.
