VIDEO: #BBNaija Lockdown Day 23 – The Smooth Photo Challenge, Vee and Dorathy misunderstanding and more…

The Housemates showed us what they got as they served looks for the Guinness Smooth Photo Challenge.

It was all about style, elegance and model-like poses as the Housemates pulled out all the stops to deliver a stunning photoshoot for the Guinness Smooth Photo Challenge. The Task required that they execute a creative photoshoot with a stylish theme.

The sorting box

To get it started, the Housemates had to first divide themselves into two different groups called Team Hops and Team Barley by picking cards from the box.            

Here are the teams they fell in.

Bumpy start for Barley

Although the Challenge was called Smooth, Team Barley didn’t exactly start off on a smooth note as Lucy complained about not being informed before the brief for the Task was read. She had earlier gone to the restroom only to step out to find out that a Brief had been read and she missed out on it. Something she didn’t take kindly to it. To ease the situation, Erica personally read the Brief to her, but that didn’t do much as it still almost turned into a major argument between Lucy and Kiddwaya as she brought it up again. That soon ended and they focused on the vintage style they were going with for the photoshoot.

Dorathy takes charge

Team Hops had Dorathy in charge and she was quick to show why Ozo made her his Deputy HoH. She wasn’t alone, she had Tolanibaj assisting her. Taking the bull by the horns, she immediately outlined the roles for each teammate. It wasn’t long after they settled for a blend of styles for the photoshoot.

Serving looks

Having picked out their theme for the creative shoot, off they went to the Arena to serve looks in a bid to win the Smooth Photo Challenge. Both Teams took turns giving their very best and striking the meanest poses for the photoshoot. From fashion magazines cover-worthy poses to runway poses, the Housemates did their thing and made serving fierce looks look like light work.

This was just the first round of the Guinness Challenge for the day, they still had more to go to eventually decide who the winner was. For this Smooth Photo Challenge though, we were very impressed with the effort they put up. May the best team win.

The Vee and Dorathy misunderstanding

We thought it was fun and Games until Dorathy laughed at Vee.

This evening was a grand evening of Wins, but as you know, there is every type of situation in Biggies House, and though the Housemates did well, there was still a little wahala. 

Context

The Housemates had a fantastic time during their Wager earlier this evening, apart from very few issues. Biggie had to put some in their place by dishing out warnings and reminding them of rules, while Housemates completed their Challenges. In the midst of all this though, while Vee was blindfolded and kicking the ball to the net, some Housemates laughed and she did not take it lightly.

The Build-up

Laycon continuously kept Vee motivated as he whispered ‘You’re the best’ over and over. Still, she needed to concentrate and requested the Housemates to give her a chance when she remarked, ‘I need silence. Do not say a freaking word.’ They did not stop, however, and the commentary got slightly louder until someone laughed. Vee managed to finish her turn and immediately after, shouted ‘Whoever was laughing in that group, I swear to God, do not speak to me ever again!’ adding ‘Do you know how disheartening that thing was?!’ as she was carried off by her teammates. Vee burst into tears from the situation as she was calmed by her team.

The middle

During their wind-down session, Vee was outside with the Housemates where Wathoni raised a concern that Vee was using unsavoury language, for which Vee apologised. When Praise raised that the outburst was uncalled for, Vee also apologised. Ozo asked her to leave it alone, to which Vee said she had let it go. Neo and Kiddwaya tried to play go-between for Dorathy and Vee and bring them together to talk, but both ladies refused to speak to each other. Dorathy did not understand why Vee took it so seriously, telling the gents ‘Neo, you know I don’t like to have problems with anybody. Four weeks here, have you seen me argue? It’s simple, it’s a game.’ The gents left without joy, and decided to leave it alone.

The download

After the Housemates went their separate ways, Neo got a chance to check in with Vee alone. It turns out Vee was still quite upset. Neo asked a simple question ‘Do you want this kind of energy inside you?’ to which Vee responded ‘No I don’t, but every time I see Dora’s face I’m gonna get pissed off’. Neo followed up with ‘It’s not worth it’, to which Vee responded, ‘It’s not worth it, but right now I am still a bit irritated’. Neo came back with ‘It’s not worth it, just focus on something else’ before he put his forehead on her forehead and told her, ‘I’m really proud of you’ adding, ‘You did really good’. 

The final gist

It was not over yet, immediately after that, the two began again, Neo confirming that he wished he had a better Team, and Vee continuing to talk about Dorathy and offering the opinion that Dorathy picked on Brighto and Negi, and now wants to pick on her. Vee ended the conversation by saying that she cannot be picked on because she has the same character as Dora. 

The night ended before the ladies made peace, but tomorrow is another day in Biggie’s House.
