The Big Brother Naija ‘No Loose Guard’ season continues to stir drama and intense reactions as housemate Kellyrae, who is married, shared a controversial on-stage kiss with fellow housemate Damilola.
The two acted out a scene during a task performance on Friday night, with Kellyrae’s wife, Kassia, watching closely from the audience.
The kiss, which was part of the duo’s role in a play, has sparked heated conversations on social media, especially on X (formerly Twitter).
While the kiss was staged for the task, many fans are torn between criticizing Kellyrae for taking on such a role in front of his wife and others praising his commitment to the game and acting skills.
Several viewers took to social media to share their thoughts on the incident, with opinions sharply divided. Some users expressed concern over Kellyrae’s comfort with the situation, referencing his past relationship issues, while others defended his role, noting that it was purely for the task.

One fan, @Pwettymom1, commented, “Omo Kassia dey try oooo haaaaa me, I can’t be watching my hubby doing this ooo.”
Meanwhile, @Sylvia93 questioned why there was such an uproar over the kiss, noting, “So married people don’t kiss in Nollywood? Besides, most of the people in ships refused to take this scene.”
Another viewer, @Masego90, wasn’t as forgiving, hinting at Kellyrae’s past: “He is too comfortable towards women; no wonder he cheated on his wife.” Similarly, @Ms_Ceecil echoed the sentiment: “Hmmm, once a cheating man, always a cheating man.”
However, there were also those who stood by Kellyrae’s performance. @Mumaijay remarked, “Kassia’s sister is an actress, so she understands it’s acting,” while @PricelessKhaid pointed out that the other male housemates who are in showmances avoided taking on the challenging scene, writing: “Nobody should say anything about this, cox the guys in fake ships refused to take this role. I guess they prefer their ships than the task.”
As the drama unfolded on screen, many viewers were curious about Kassia’s reaction. Although she did not make any public comments or express any visible discomfort, fans continue to speculate about how the incident may affect the dynamics between the couple in and outside the house.
As BBNaija S9 progresses, Kellyrae’s actions may continue to fuel conversation among fans and viewers. Whether this kiss will impact his game or relationships within the house remains to be seen, but it certainly highlights the complexities of being a married contestant in the BBNaija house.
