Phyna, the winner of Big Brother Naija Season 7, recently surprised everyone by sharing an interesting connection between her and Whitemoney’s game plan in the reality show.
Phyna disclosed this while featuring on MTV Base Sparks alongside BBN Season 6 winner, Whitemoney.
During the engaging discussion, Whitemoney made a surprising revelation, stating, “I heard that you kind of used my script in the [Big Brother] House. There is a certain aspect of me that you inherited and used to spice up your own game. And it worked for you.”
In response, Phyna candidly shared her audacious journey towards becoming a Big Brother Naija housemate, revealing, “I have been auditioning for Big Brother for about five years. Four years before the fifth year last year [when I was selected].
“Any year they don’t pick me, I don’t watch Big Brother. I don’t even want to know anything about it. I’m always jealous.”
Phyna further shed light on a particular incident that led to accusations of copying Whitemoney’s catchphrase during her stay in the Big Brother House. She explained, “So when I was in the [Big Brother] House and I said, ‘Who deyyyy?….’ I was angry that day. It’s something I always say. It’s just part of me. So, I said that. And one day, one of the housemates was like, ‘Whitemoney used to say this ‘Who deyyy?’ in the House. You’re copying him.’
“I’m like, really? I didn’t know o because I didn’t watch [Big Brother Naija Season 6]. And she was like, no, you’re copying him. And I was like, anyways, as long as he win, you say I dey copy abi? Ehnn, make e still work for me.”
