Hip hop singer Trezagah studied Civil Engineering. He doesn’t have a 
favourite food, because he says he loves eating and ‘I eat everything! 
The classic Hardy Boys books are his favourite, while he enjoys the 
Discovery and National Geographic channels on TV because he likes to 
‘watch crocodiles and sharks attacking’. Trezagah was inspired to enter 
Big Brother Hotshots by watching previous seasons. 
 
He is both happy and 
nervous at the thought of having the continent’s eyes on him. He says 
the best thing about Africa is ‘the culture each country preserves’ and 
says his favourite place in Mozambique is Yofo Beach. He likes the 
Caribbean Islands because he’s a great fan of nature. His role model is 
Jay-Z, ‘because he knows how to dress, how to be on stage, how to behave
 and has good business control’. His parents have played an incredibly 
influential role in his life because they always showed him what was 
right and what was wrong. He describes himself as ‘happy, active, wise, 
serious and calm’ and says the best thing about himself is the way he 
treats people indiscriminately, saying he can ‘be a friend of a poor 
person or even a person that sleeps on the street’.

 A 1.93m-tall model with a Higher National Diploma in Maritime Studies, 
Tayo, from Nigeria, certainly stands out in a crowd. He lists his 
favourite foods as Eba an Okra Soup mixed with fish stew, his favourite 
musicians as 2Face Idibia, Beautiful Nubia and D’Banj. 
 
Tayo says his favourite place in Nigeria is Oyo Town, his place of 
birth. ‘That’s my home, where I started life. It reminds me of who I am 
now and how far I’ve come in life,’ he says. He says the best thing 
about Africa is ‘culture and pride’ and that his favourite place outside
 of Nigeria is South Africa, which he calls his ‘home away from home’. 
 
He entered Big Brother Hotshots because he believed in himself, and was 
also encouraged to enter by others. ‘I like to be seen and to be heard,’
 he says. Tayo says he’s not willing to change who he is or disgrace his
 family and friends to impress viewers or his fellow Housemates. If Tayo
 wins the grand prize, he says he’ll, set up his life and give himself a
 life of luxury.
