It was a night to remember in the Big Brother Mzansi house as Swiss officially clocked into the prestigious 5K club during the second Friday night arena games. With the theme "Big Deal Deluxe," Swiss smashed the competition, completing the challenge in just 57 seconds! His stellar performance earned him a cool R5,000, making him the second housemate to achieve this feat.
While Swiss celebrated his victory, it wasn’t smooth sailing for everyone. Sweet Guluva, last week’s star, faced a disappointing disqualification after breaking the rules. His loss set the tone for a high-stakes night filled with both triumph and tension.
Watch his win here:
The housemates, ever the lively bunch, rallied around Swiss to celebrate his win in true Umlilo style. But let’s not forget the drama that unfolded earlier in the evening. Swiss had a heated run-in with Abobo over a manicure prize. After Bonni Bee snagged a chill challenge victory earlier in the week, Abobo chose Swiss to deliver the goods – a manicure. Things went south quickly, as Abobo’s persistence clashed with Swiss’s patience, leading to a full-blown shouting match. While the manicure eventually happened, the vibes were anything but chill.
Watch Abobo vs Swiss:
Back to the arena games, HoH Sipha Lee brought his A-game but also stirred some controversy. His reaction to Sweet Guluva’s disqualification raised eyebrows across the Biggieverse. While his competitive spirit is admirable, his visible celebration of Sweet Guluva’s loss didn’t sit well with fans. Perhaps Sipha Lee was gunning for a streak of his own, eager to match Sweet Guluva’s early successes as the first HoH and arena games champ.
With two Friday night games down, the house is heating up. Swiss’s victory not only boosts his confidence but also stirs up the competitive energy among the housemates. Will this 5K streak continue, or will someone else rise to the challenge next week? One thing’s for sure – the drama and the games are just getting started!
