In this revealing interview, ex BBA
Housemate talks about her relationship with Angelo and her experience in the
Big Brother house.
24 hours after she
arrived Nigeria, BBA The Chase finalist Beverly Osu was rushed to Faith City
Hospital, Oju Olobun Close, off Bishop Oluwole Street, Victoria Island, Lagos.
The BBA star was
admitted for treatment due to a sprain ankle she suffered in the BBA house, a
day to the finale.
For 91 days, the video
vixen entertained Africa with so many tales of her life experiences and of
course, the widely condemned sexual encounter that resulted from an in-house
love affair between her and another housemate, Angelo Collins
The one question everybody
wanted to know was why she succumbed to her sexual urges and having sex with
the South African while the entire continent watched.
‘I
did not have sex in the house, I never had sex in the house. I had a
relationship with Angelo Collins but we didn’t have sex. Nothing happened
between me and Angelo. Though there were awkward moments, we never had sex. I
know what happened then between us but we never got down to have sex’, she
insists.
Rumour has it that
Angelo has a girlfriend, but Beverly doesn’t seem to care. ‘I don’t want to
talk about his so called girlfriend because I don’t know anything about her’.
Does she see a future
in the relationship, she says, ‘We talk every day. He loves me and I still love
him. I would get married to him if I had the chance.’
Of course on the issue
of nudity she says, ‘all of us take our baths naked. So I shouldn’t be
different because I went for a reality show. I shouldn’t be different from
every other person, because I didn’t bring out my videos, Big Brother did so I
should not be judged, and I represented Nigeria well’.
Particularly known for
her fabulous stories: from abortion to rape to sleeping with men for money and
dating musicians, she seems not to regret her actions at all. ‘I’m a very open
person. Melvin knows, he stayed with me for 91 days. I say what’s on my mind,
and for me to reveal myself to the world, it didn’t look like I was revealing
myself to the world’, she said, ‘I was talking too much, maybe, but I’m on a
reality show. I don’t regret saying the things that I said about me and my
family, because if I have to be on this platform, people have to know the real
me and what I’ve been through.’
As much as she
discussed her mom’s ugly past on terrestrial television, her mom’s love was
never lost from her side. ‘I can never go out of my way to disgrace and
disappoint my mom intentionally. She has lectured me properly. And even if the
whole world rejects me, my mom can’t reject me. I love my mom so much. I am her
only daughter and last born. I’ve always been there for her and she’ll always
be there for me.’
Her conduct in the
house has been termed an embarrassment to Nigeria as a country, and Beverly
apologises, ‘I don’t feel happy about it since this will be the first time I
will be representing Nigeria… I’m sorry for embarrassing my country. I didn’t
do it intentionally. My participation in the show was not to embarrass my
country‘.
Was 2shotz the rapper
boyfriend Beverly claimed was constantly abusing her? ‘No. I wasn’t referring
to him. For me, 2shots is history. Thank you for reminding me about him.’
She may have lost out
on the $300,000 prize money, but she made history by becoming the first BBA
contestant that was never nominated for eviction since the inception of the
African franchise of the television series in 2003 and for that she says,
‘I broke a record… I made Nigeria proud’.
Beverly has come out of
the show a celebrity, whether for the right reasons or the wrong, but she is
hoping to roll on with the little fame she has achieved. ‘Before I left, I had
a show called ‘Beverly Says’ and I’m back to push it. If you guys watched Big
Brother, you would be very sure that I can act, so I’d go into movies, but
then, I have to finish school because I’m in my 200 level.’
