For 91 days, the video vixen
entertained Africa with so many tales of her life experiences and of
course, the widely condemned séxual 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 succúmbed to her séxual úrges and having séx with the
South African while the entire continent watched.
‘I
did not have séx in the house, I never had séx in the house. I had a
relationship with Angelo Collins but we didn’t have séx. Nothing
happened between me and Angelo. Though there were awkward moments, we
never had séx. I know what happened then between us but we never got
down to have séx’, 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 núdity she
says, ‘all of us take our baths nakéd. 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.’
