Phyna, the winner of Big Brother Naija Season 7, recently revealed that she had auditioned for the reality show five times before being selected. During her appearance on MTV Base Sparks alongside Whitemoney, the winner of BBN Season 6, Whitemoney mentioned that Phyna had used a certain aspect of his personality to enhance her own game in the Big Brother House.
Phyna acknowledged this and explained that she had been auditioning for Big Brother for four years prior to being chosen in the fifth year. She also shared that whenever she wasn’t selected, she would refrain from watching the show out of jealousy.
Phyna further explained that her catchphrase, “Who deyyyy?”, was something she often said and was not intentionally copied from Whitemoney. She clarified that she wasn’t aware of his use of the phrase in the previous season and expressed her support for him, stating that she didn’t mind if people thought she was copying him as long as he emerged as the winner.
