Nigerian rapper, actor and songwriter, Falz the Badh Guy, surprised Big Brother Naija housemates on Monday morning with a visit after his performance at the eviction show on Sunday.
His visit was a special treat to the 13 remaining housemates who were excited to have him in their midst and were captivated as he narrated his journey to stardom.
The 26-year-old musician explained that he did not start his career with comedy as is popularly thought, but has been releasing music a long time before his skits on Instagram made him popular.
He told the housemates that his fame did not come about overnight but was through years of hard work and consistency.
The law graduate then proceeded to ask each of them about their future aspirations.
Gifty who stated that she did not know who Falz was, summarised her dreams in two words “power” and “fame”, prompting the rapper to advise her to stop being fake.
“I think you are very beautiful, but be yourself,” he said.
“I think you should enter your own, there is a character within you that you need to tap into, the actual you.
“This is coming from my own heart, Big Brother did not tell me to tell you this one oh.
“Be you, that is all I have to say to you, just be you.”
The award-winning singer wished the housemates all the best and told them to make good use of the reality TV experience.
Fans immediately reacted to Falz telling Gifty to be herself and also knocked her for saying she didn’t know who Falz is.
