Big brother Mzansi: Goodbye Mzamo and Thando

New found friends Mzamo and Thando were evicted from the Big brother house on Sunday, leaving a sad Iris behind.

A visibly distraught Iris shed tears after realising that her main allies in the show had been evicted.

The two co-conspirators received the least number of votes from the public last week.

27-year-old Durban fashion entrepreneur Mzamo and 23-year-old marketing graduate Thando now plan to use the exposure gained from the show to fuel their respective careers.

Asked who he would be supporting now that he was out of the Big brother house Mzamo said he would obviously be supporting Iris but looking the game right now he believed Lexi had a better chance at winning the ultimate prize.

Meanwhile back in the house Iris, Lexi, Mandla and Poolie are all up for eviction this week.

This is how today’s nomination process went:

• Sol was quick off the mark to nominate Iris and Poolie.

• Iris, who was inconsolably tearful on Sunday night, returned the favour when she nominated Sol, and her long-time foe Lexi.

• Loko also nominated Lexi this week saying that, ‘just one moment when you feel like things are sorted, then she switches and things aren’t sorted.’ Loko’s second nomination went to Mandla.

• For his part Mandla nominated Poolie and Iris saying that not only did Poolie vote for him but ‘he’s one of the people that have been on Lexi’s back in terms of nominations.’ Mandla also memorably nominated Iris with the unforgettable line, ‘I feel as though she should pack just one more time so that she can unpack at home.’

• Poolie was clear about his nomination for Mandla this week saying, ‘he’s still not real in the house, he’s fake, he’s playing a game for real.’ Sol was Poolie’s second nomination.

• MK once again nominated Lexi for eviction and his second nomination went to Mandla because, ‘I feel if I am up for eviction, I’d rather be up against Mandla now than later on.’

• Lexi also nominated MK saying she felt that he was ‘dodgy’ around her. Her second nomination was for Iris.

• Kat also nominated from Suite 501. Her choices were Poolie and Lexi because ‘she’s one of my least favourite people in the house.’

When the proverbial dust had settled after nominations, Lexi led the pack with 4 nominations with Mandla, Iris and Poolie each scoring 3 apiece. Sol received 2 nominations and MK received 1.
