Life’s a bust, and then there’s Karen! Or Bernadina for that matter!!
Big Brother Amplified’s Tails house is busting eeeeeeeuw, should be bursting at the seams. Seems bust is a must if you’re steam-tailing it in Jerry Springer mode – “Jerry, Jerry, Jerry”!!!
If it’s not one or the other Tailsmate busting someone’s chops (verbally), it’s one bust-up after the other: Luclay and Karen, Mumba and Luclay, Miss P and Kim, and ta-ra, ta-ra Bernadina and Kim.
Yip, this is not a misprint. Bernadina and Kim. Bust a button! S’true.
Nic and Berna are getting on like a house on fire, so much so that it has Kim smouldering. Just waiting for the Zambian to call in the firefighting crew from ‘Towering Inferno’!
Late on Wednesday, Bernadina seemed to decide on a scorched earth policy, and asked Kim if she felt singed (OK, she said intimidated) by her and Nic’s friendship. Whoa!
A blazing row ensued as Karen fanned the flames of mistrust, butting in like a lit match in hot pursuit of tinderwood.
You know Karen. There’s no holding back when it comes to the hyper Nigerian. Anyway, after Karen had shot her wad, Berna intimated to Kim – if I understood her correctly – that if she, Bernadina, set her sights on Nic, it was overs cadovers, he’d be hers.
That she’d have him as quick as you can say kapana. OK, she didn’t say kapana. Still, ouch!!
Who would have thunk. Eish, there’s more to our girl than meets the eye, boobs included. And that means like a whole lot more!!
And there I was thinking that Berna needed to be protected from Nic. Don’t know if any of you noticed the glint the kinky Kenyan got in his eye after she fessed up that she’s still a virgin. Hmmmmmmmm
Anyway, poor Kim seemed quite gobsmacked by being bust-jacked.
The normally loquacious Livingstone girl confined herself to scolding Bernadina for igniting the situation by bringing Karen into the equation.
I think Biggie needs to bring back that oil wrestling task again today and let the Tailsmates get down and cathartic.
Picked up along the way that Bernadina and Kim have some beef (not kapana). Seems Berna doesn’t believe half of what the Zambian says about her escapades. Oh well
Crush me, crush me
Over in the Heads house, Zim’s Vimbai is working herself up over countryman Wendall. Sigh. Oh Vimbai. Seems she’s developed a crush on him. She even told Vina and Hanni earlier this week that if he was evicted she’d have a nervous breakdown and didn’t know how she’d cope.
Little does the Baby Phat model know that, in fact, it’s her fate that’s in the balance. Lomwe, as Head of House, saved fellow Malawian Felicia and threw Vimbai into the eviction mix.
In the meantime, wonder if the ‘St Nowhere’, aka ‘E.R.’, hospital task will see the two Zimbabweans connect before they’re wrenched from one another’s bosoms (OMG, this sounds like a Mills and Boon novel).
In terms of the script, Wendall wants her, loves her, lusts after her y’know, the whole shebang, if not the whole bust.
Come Sunday I guess we’ll know if they’re star-crossed lovers; alternatively if it’s a cabin-fever crush, or love unrequited.
Or maybe not!!
While we’re in hospital soapie territory, wonder how many peeps remember ‘St Elsewhere’?! Someone in the BBA creative department evidently does! And me, of course.
If pain is a byatch, how about Luclay. Eish, someone please pass me some morphine. I dunno. I really dunno.
All his fractured talk about being sent by God to do good and change people Look, I’m a believer but the way he carries on
OK, I’ve got it, or think I’ve got it. Hella, maybe he wants to be a cult leader and he’s on a recruitment mission. His latest ‘apostolic’ – why do I think alcoholic fits better – ‘decree’ is that “one thing I believe is that I will correct evil and bring good”.
Yes, Luclay. Hey, maybe all this Charlie Sheen-godesses thing has got to his ego!! Who knows.
OK peeps, I’m out of here. Don’t forget to vote your favourite and
Stay Tuned!
