Former Big Brother Africa Reality TV star, Tayo Faniran has said he would go on the show again if the opportunity comes.
He stated this in a recent interview with Channels TV where he discussed his role in ‘Gangs of Lagos’, a feisty crime thriller.
Faniran played the role of Ninalowo, a brutal but kind-hearted gangster in the movie.
He said ‘Gangs Of Lagos’ gave him a second breakthrough after Big Brother Africa.
He said, “While I was waiting for a second chance or maybe another time I will have such a breakthrough like Big Brother Africa, you know it [BBA] was massive. I thought maybe Big Brother Africa will happen again, like maybe Big Brother Africa All-stars. I was hoping if it does happen, definitely I’m sure people will want me on it.
“So, I still maintain that controversial part, you get what I’m saying. But God has given me a new life. Since ‘Gangs Of Lagos’ came, I don’t care if Big Brother Africa never happens again or All-stars or whatever. God had given me what I wanted. And right now, I’m not sad. I can testify that that has to happen for me to get to where I’m now.”
“Big Brother Africa, definitely I will do it again. I know what it means to be on the TV for just a few seconds. So, imagine being on TV for like 90 days. If I get that opportunity now, I’d definitely like trailer loads of talent that I want to come and sell or market to the world.”
The reality star disclosed that he didn’t audition for his role in ‘Gangs Of Lagos.’
He said the producer, Jade Osiberu, sent the script to him and asked him to play the role which he obliged.
