Every season of Big Brother Mzansi marks the emergence of new fanbases who passionately rally behind their faves. For the looming season of Mzansi’s most popular unscripted experience, the new housemates can expect to amass legions of adoring fans. The gag is, the frenzy tends to last far beyond the show!
Unlike supportive communities gained by participants and cast members in similar shows, the BBMzansi fanbases are known for building lasting forces that fuel the success of their idols long after they have left the experiment. As we prepare for the new era, here is the tea on these strategic masters of peak hype.
- They stan hard!
Big Brother fans are among the most dedicated communities on the internet. With each season, they passionately campaign for their favourite housemates by creating powerful movements that can lead to lofty victories. Whether it’s through social media hashtags, organising viewing parties, opening Spaces, or regularly updating about their favourite housemates, they spare no effort in hyping up their stars.
- They are the defence force
Once these fanbases have been formed, any proverbial weapon formed against the apple of their eye will not prosper. In fact, coming for their faves is not for the faint-hearted. That is because Big Brother fans function as a formidable defence force for their favourites, fiercely protecting them against criticism and controversy.
They mobilise across social media platforms, launching campaigns to rally support and drown out negativity. Whether engaging in heated debates or creatively crafting counterarguments, these fans ensure their beloved housemates have a strong support system. Their unwavering loyalty transforms into a shield, creating a sense of unity and camaraderie among fans, making them a powerful force within the Big Brother community. Wouldn’t you want them to be on your side?
- They are creative
Make no mistake, the most iconic memes are crafted and circulated by the fanbases! From fan art to catchy quotes, creative remixes of moments from the house to the most awe-inspiring fan-cams, these communities showcase remarkable creativity. We can’t wait to see the imaginative ways in which the fanbases will choose to hype up their chosen housemates in the next season.
- They are the hill
No shade, but Biggie’s fans are unmatched. In the realm of reality TV, Big Brother fanbases emerge as a battalion of unwavering warriors, armed with fierce loyalty and an indomitable spirit. These die-hard supporters don their capes of creativity and wield social media as their battlefield, launching campaigns and defending their favourites with the tenacity of superheroes. Bound by an unbreakable bond, they cultivate a culture of solidarity, transcending the confines of the show.
Their enduring loyalty transforms them into a vibrant community, where each fan is a soldier, ready to rise and fight for their beloved housemates, no matter the odds. This loyalty will manifest as an attentive audience of loving supporters for future projects, campaigns, and endeavours their faves will undertake in the future.
- They have mastered social media
When it comes to the entertainment business, relevance and visibility are the currency. What can we say? A bit of drama sells! Because the Big Brother Mzansi fanbases know the nature of the game, they go all out to ensure that their faves stay top of mind. Ever so creative in how they execute these vibrant campaigns to promote the housemates of their choice, they go on discussing episodes, opening Spaces, setting up Lives, recruiting others, and driving conversations. Their enthusiasm keeps the buzz alive.
