By Funmilayo Olusanya

During the past years, Nigerian beauty queens have competed for the ultimate prize on the Big Brother Naija reality TV show.

Following is a list of some of the beautiful queens that have appeared as Big Brother Naija Housemates.

Kim Oprah

Kim, who was born Chinonso Opara, has always had a penchant for pageantry and has competed since she was in high school. In 2010, she was Miss Regina Pacis College.

She triumphed in a competition at her school and was named Miss Psychology Uniport. In 2015, she received the title Miss Tourism Nigeria, and in 2019, she received the title Miss Intercontinental Nigeria.

She entered the Big Brother Naija house in 2019! She only stayed for two weeks before being expelled, despite the fact that everyone was in awe of her beauty. Kim has achieved success outside the house as a businesswoman and influencer; she even has her own skincare line, Kim’s Secret.

Queen Mercy Atang

Mercy attracted a lot of attention to herself with her beauty when she entered the Big Brother Naija home in 2021. She was awarded the title of Face of Democracy Southern Nigeria in 2015.

She was crowned Miss Nigeria International in 2015 and Miss International World Classic in 2017.

Erica Nlewedim

Erica is one of the contentious queens on Big Brother Naija. At a young age, she started modeling and entered the 2015 Miss Photogenic contest for the Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria.

Erica shared a house with other contestants on Big Brother Naija in 2020, but she was kicked out after receiving several strikes and getting into a fight with Laycon. During the argument, she insulted Laycon, spilt water on the Head of House bed, and yelled for the production team to come get her.

Nengi Hampson

Nengi Hampson was a young child when she began competing in pageants. She gained the title of Nigerian Queen when she was 15 years old, and in 2014, she was named Miss Peace Nigeria.

She was in the top 5 in 2017 for the Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria. She was also awarded best evening wear. On the Big Brother Naija reality television series in 2020, Nengi shared a house.

Beauty Tukura

Beauty also started participating in pageants at a young age. She won the 2015 competition for the Most Beautiful Girl in Taraba, and in 2019 she took home the Miss Nigeria title, becoming the 43rd Miss Nigeria.

Before participating in the 2022 Big Brother Naija season, Beauty enjoyed a great deal of success. While having her own online store named Stylish Beauty, she collaborates with other companies.

Her time on the show was shortened after she was given one strike for ripping a housemate’s cap off in the first episode and two strikes for throwing her wig and spectacles at her love interest and throwing away her microphone in the second. After earning three strikes, she was disqualified.

BBNaija’s Eloswag Responds To Leaked Sextape

Published

on

Eloswag, a former contestant on Big Brother Naija Season 7, has broken his silence following the release of his private video online.

The reality star reportedly uploaded a clip featuring himself and an unidentified woman on his Snapchat account at approximately 3 a.m. on Sunday.

Though Eloswag swiftly deleted the video, it had already caught the attention of the internet.

The explicit content quickly gained traction after being reposted by the controversial gossip blog, Gistlover, sparking widespread conversations across social media platforms.

In response to the incident, Eloswag took to X (formerly Twitter) to express his frustration and consider possible legal action.

In a now-deleted post, he wrote, “I mistakenly posted a video on my Snapchat by 3am and deleted it immediately, guess who has the video? GISTLOVER? How? Please, can I sue? Because it doesn’t make sense.”

The reality star’s reaction highlights the challenges celebrities face when intimate content finds its way online.

While some supporters have shown empathy, others have engaged in heated debates about the responsibility of public figures in handling their digital content.

Eloswag’s predicament places him alongside other Nigerian celebrities who have dealt with similar scandals, such as Moyo Lawal, Tiwa Savage, Oxlade, and James Brown, whose private videos have previously surfaced online.

Legal experts have weighed in on Eloswag’s potential case, noting that while pursuing legal action against individuals or platforms that share such content can be complex, it is not impossible.

The development has reignited discussions on digital privacy and the ethical responsibilities of content-sharing platforms.

As Eloswag’s fans and critics await further updates, the incident underscores the precarious nature of online privacy and the far-reaching consequences of a single momentary lapse.
