Hotshots: Big Brother Africa (BBA) returns September

BBA
In a couple of weeks, Africa’s biggest reality show, Big Brother Africa, BBA, will return for its ninth season from Sunday, September 7, with housemates who have hidden talents and adore the spotlight competing for a massive prize pot of USD 300, 000.
The new season, which will be infused with more swag and glamour according to the organisers, will be known as Hotshots.
M-Net Africa Regional Director (West Africa), Wangi Mba-Uzoukwu, said viewers would be in for almost as many surprises as the housemates. “We work hard to make each season of   Big Brother Africa bigger than the last, and we’ve really upped the ante this year. Big Brother Hotshots is going to bring viewers exciting innovations, heart-stopping twists and uniquely African glamour, 24/7 for 91 days.”
According to her, the housemates will start the game, which will be hosted by Nigerian-born IK Osakioduwa for the sixth time, in two ultra-glamorous houses built with magic, fun and mischief in mind. While it lasts, the housemates will do their best to outshine one another in the hope of convincing Africa that they are the continent’s biggest Hotshot. “They will party like A-listers, rub shoulders with celebrity guests and face formidable challenges, while negotiating Biggie’s famous curve balls and twists,” she further disclosed.
Produced by Endemol South Africa, the Big Brother Hotshots will run 24/7 on DStv channels 197 and 198, with the best of the live highlights on GOtv.

The Great Chinese Exodus Many Chinese are leaving for cleaner air, better schools and more opportunity. But Beijing is keeping its eye on them.

A recent report showed that 64% of China's rich are either migrating overseas or have plans to leave the country. Political scientist James To, who has written a book on the subject, tells the WSJ's Deborah Kan how the Chinese government is using propaganda campaigns abroad to ensure loyalty from overseas Chinese. Even when the emperors did their utmost to keep them at home, the Chinese ventured overseas in search of knowledge, fortune and adventure.
