HERMES

Chibueze “Hermes” Iyele has become an early big brother naija favourite because of his unusual style. His numerous piercings, tinted hair, eyebrows, and his controversial relationship status have gotten tongues wagging online.

He revealed that he has two girlfriends who know each other and are free to have other sexual partners. Another contributing factor to his popularity is the fact that he has performed as a dancer in music videos. Hermes was featured in Burna Boy’s “Monsters you made” music video; Davido and Focalistic’s “Ke Star” music video; as well as Ajebo Hustler’s “Loyalty”.

Twitter user, @Rhorshid tweeted “Chibueze “Hermes” Iyele is in #BigBrother House, History is about to happen. You are all about to witness a raw rarity in crass, creed, street, and brilliance, all of these and more are what this Oworonshoki bred embodies. Hermes is/will be the show”.

@Lawretharr spoke about how supportive Hermes’ two girlfriends are of him, describing it as cute.

“Hermès has the most cooperative girlfriends. They are tagging each other on posts in support of him. How cute. Half the ladies mocking the situation are in monogamous relationships with shamelessly polygamous men”, he tweeted.

SHEGGZ

Segun Daniel Olusemo also known as “Sheggz” is another early favorite because of his charming looks and British accent. He also caught the admiration of Nigerians because of his budding romance with fellow housemate Bella. He’s based in England and works as an actor and a professional footballer.
