BBA HOTSHOTS: Sheilla – Botswana
Sheilla is a student from Gaborone in Botswana, currently studying an AAT Diploma. She entered Big Brother Hotshots because she believes that “it’s a platform for people like me who were born for the spotlight. It puts us out there to succeed in our careers – in my case, my music career” she says. She’s excited that the whole continent will be watching her. She says “it’s like interacting in the house with someone invisible, or a ghost, and the thought of what they think just gives you an adrenaline rush.”
She says her best quality is that she “analyses things before overreacting in certain situations.”| She likes people who are communicative because it helps her see what they think of her and how she should behave around them. She dislikes bossy people and “people with similar strands of personality to me” she says.
She likes to eat prawns and rice, as well as pap and beef. Her top TV shows include Big Brother Africa, Keeping Up With The Kardashians and How Do I Look? She enjoys the music of Beyonce, K.O., AKA and Tamela Mann. Her favourite actors are Cameron Diaz and Dwayne Johnson. Her favourite films also include The Hunger Games, Wrong Turn, The Break of Dawn and Mean Girls.
Sheilla’s favourite part of Botswana is the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans and says that the best thing about Africa is “the diverse but highly-principled cultures which Africans tend not to leave behind”. She says that Las Vegas is her favourite place outside of Africa, because “it is a crazy, forever jolly holiday destination.”
