Big Brother Naija Season 7 winner, Phyna, has revealed that she no longer advises anyone to audition for the popular reality TV show.
It was reported that she shared that even though the show can bring quick fame, the attention given to housemates usually fades once they leave the house.
Phyna, during a livestream on Twitch, said that many fans simply move on to the next set of contestants each season, which makes it hard for ex-housemates to maintain the same level of attention they once had during the show.
She also shared that the value people once attached to being a BBNaija star is no longer the same as before, as public perception has changed over time.
According to her, many people believe that life after the show means instant success, but this is not always the case.
She explained that a lot of former housemates struggle quietly, even though social media may paint a different picture filled with luxury and comfort.
Phyna said that the real experience outside the house is often very different from the glam viewers see on screen.
For this reason, she said anyone planning to audition should fully understand the pressure that comes with fame and the tough reality that may follow after the season ends.
She said, “The steeze housemates have on the show they don’t have it again, because it’s the same fan base that moves from one to another, no new people, nothing new. It’s just the same people.
“And that aside, the show has lost credibility compared to the way it was before, because when you tell someone now that I came out of BBNaija, they won’t rate you as they did then.”
