Credit: Big Brother AfricaBig Brother Africa (BBA), the biggest reality show on the continent, has been especially scandalous this season. BBA follows 28 contestants from 14 countries all competing to win $300,000 in cash while under constant surveillance. The housemates haven't dissapointed on the fights, romance, and sexy incidents. Here are the five most juicy scandals of Season 8 so far:
-

LK4 had promised to marry Cynthia yet didn't mention her once while he was on the show. Instead, he started a steamy romance with someone new: the South African contestant Koketso, who was also banished, largely for her connection with LK4.

Big Brother later reprimended Selly and she apologized. Selly's defense? That she emptied her beverage "out of appreciation" for Pokello's dance moves, per tradition back in Ghana.

Most recently, she openly talked about using her vibrator. "Don't be scared if you hear a zzzzzzzzz sound while you sleep, it's just me and my vibrator," Natasha announced to her housemates. "Seriously if you hear a grrr grr sound, don't think that I am shaving, I am not shaving."

Most of the outrage has been targeted towards Betty, as viewers rushed to assert her actions do not represent all Ethiopian women. Far fewer people seem upset with Bolt. Typical.

Credit: Big Brother Africa1. The most explosive scandal of the season has been Zimbabwean contestant Pokello Nare's sex tape. Pokello made the x-rated video with rapper Desmond "Stunner" Chideme back in 2011 while the two were dating. The footage resurfaced shortly after Pokello joined Big Brother, leading to outrage and calls from some fans for her to quit the show on Facebook and Twitter. Many others, however, have continued to voice their support, including her father.
