It’s safe to say fiery flames have collided, cranking the temperature from room temperature to scorching hot. We’ve had a taste of the new Big Brother Mzansi personalities, and from the look of things, it’s going to be a promise-kept kind of season.
The theme of the week is 'fan my flame' and housemates are bringing flames in the house gun blazing, and stirring things up, so we couldn’t resist taking a sneak peek at just how much heat they’ll unleash according to their star signs.
Fire signs - Aries, Leo and Sagittarius
These fire signs are the ultimate Umlilo squad on that 'heat things up with the drama' tip, and adventure. They aren’t known for just bringing the heat but they turn the whole house into a bonfire. It's all explosive energy, drama, and intense moments with their bold traits, impulsiveness, and are ready to spark a showdown at any moment. They crave the spotlight and make sure all eyes are on them. This bunch is all about freedom, fun, and pushing the limits. Think spontaneous energy, bold opinions, and unpredictable heated moments.

Water signs - Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces
They may not start the fire, but they’ll definitely protect it. This quiet protector and mysterious smoulder’s flame is deep and nurturing but their sting is fiery and revenge-fueled and best believe, you’ll know when they’re burning up. They’re all about creativity and compassion, but when their dreams or values are challenged, they unexpectedly burst into an emotional flame, bringing an unforgettable explosion of passion and drama.

Earth signs – Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn
Earth signs are the ultimate slow burner, their fire is like a warm, cozy bonfire serving calm until it’s not. When you think of earth signs, think stability, practicality, and grounded nature, so their fire is steady, reliable, and strong. No flashy drama, just slow, intense drive fuelled by focus and determination. They don’t wear their fire on their sleeve, but if you mess with their peace or comfort? Prepare for a fiery response. Word on the street is they quietly set the house on fire one detail at a time and when they want something, they burn through obstacles until they get it.
Season 5 Earth babies: Abobo, Ezra, Gugu, Kay B, Luzuko, Mata, Melino, Mshini, Nsuku, Philile and Swiss
Air signs – Gemini, Libra and Aquarius
Air signs are the ultimate firecrackers, straight up quick-witted, chatty, and always stirring up fiery ideas. They are popularly known to bring the heat in a more mental and dynamic way, so sparks are definitely flying through. Caught up in their own version of Umlilo, their intellectual, social, and communicative traits stir up conversations, keep the peace, but watch out cause they fire up when things aren’t fair. It’s all about shaking things up and sparking some revolutionary moments.
