Philile Nzama may have been dubbed “the house furniture” by some “Big Brother Mzansi” viewers due to her calm demeanor and the tendency to keep to herself but there is more to her than “shyness.”

In an exclusive interview, she offered a glimpse into her experiences and her personal aspirations.

The 31-year-old, who hails from Durban, reflected on her journey in the house, acknowledging that it was not always easy. “I was anxious during nominations and evictions,” she admitted. “That's how I got the nickname 'cry baby' from my fellow housemates, she said.”

Despite the challenges, Philile cherished the friendships she formed in the house. When asked about her favorite moments in the house, Philile fondly remembered the lively Saturday night parties, the task presentations given by “Biggie” and the Thursday evening pool parties.

“My favorite moments were the Saturday parties, the task presentations and the pool parties,” she said.

She also appreciated the diary sessions, which helped her realise the magnitude of being in the “Big Brother” house.

The reality TV star also revealed that her time in the house has taught her that she has a high tolerance level.

“I've learned to tolerate. I get irritated easily but I've learned that confronting people only leads to awkwardness and discomfort,” she added.

During her seven-week stay in the house, she learned to handle certain behaviors and attitudes from her fellow housemates in order to avoid any discomfort.

In terms of her plans post “Big Brother”, Philile expressed her desire to pursue a career in modeling and acting. She hopes to find an agent to help her navigate the industry and plans to take acting classes to hone her skills.
