The first runner-up of Big Brother Naija 2017, has revealed that she auditioned for the reality show eight times before she got the nod participate.
Bisola Aiyeola was also the third runner-up of the 2008 edition of the MTN Project Fame West Africa music reality show which was was won by Iyanya.
Recounting her journey to JoyNews’ MzGee, Aiyeola, who is now a Temple Management signee, described her journey as interesting but not without hitches.
“Last year, the audition for Big Brother Naija came up and I was like yeah, great let’s do this and I made it into the house.
"A lot of people keep asking me, who do I know that got me linked. They don’t know I have been auditioning for that show (BBA Africa and Naija) for eight years,” she said.
The singer and actress went into oblivion just after Project Fame West Africa and resurfaced after having a baby.
She, however, admits having a baby soon after Project Fame stalled her rise to stardom.
“I believe things will have moved a bit faster because you have to focus on motherhood. A child is not just a log of wood, it is not just furniture that you just give birth and leave there or you hang there.
"You have to cater, nurture, even women in other business spheres can tell you how difficult it is juggling motherhood and work so it was a bit of a difficulty joggling both but so far it’s been amazing,” she added.
Aiyeola also touched on the recent uproar by her daughter’s father, their current relationship and possibilities of settling with him, celebrity marriages and more.
