Is Tacha the next controversial celebrity in your face? [Pulse Opinion]
Whether we like it or not, Tacha is going to be in our faces for a long time to come and you all have to get used to it or maybe look away.
Reality TV shows are known for berthing two sets of people; the ones who go into extinction almost immediately after the show ends and those who remains in the spotlight. Given by this calculation and recent events, Tacha who just got disqualified from the Big Brother Naija house joins the set of reality TV show participants, who grab fame even before exiting the show.
I know a lot of people will come for me because of the title of this piece but before you take out your pistol, maybe you should understand why this is nothing but the gospel truth. The entertainment world isn't an entirely formal sector as it is mixed with all kinds of people.
There are no particular pathways to becoming a celebrity as it can be described as the most complex and shocking sector. What works for Mr A might be a different ball game for Mr B.
Celebrities are known to be in the business of being in the news for all reasons both good and bad. The moment Tacha was introduced into the Big Brother Naija house as one of the housemates and she made that famous statement "Look at them, look at me" a controversial celebrity was born.
She brought so much controversies to the reality TV show from day 1Â which included fighting with virtually everyone in the house. The strikes didn't even help caution the 'social media influencer' as she seems ready to spoil for war at every given chance.
For some, it was a strategy, for others, it was a stinking and disgusting attitude that couldn't be hidden. Tacha was so confident about her getting to the last day in the house and eventually clinching the grand prize to the extent that she one if ger new lines, "No Leave No Transfer, " so popular in just few days.
After almost three months of surviving back to back evictions and strikes from Big Brother, Tacha's confidence grew and became her undoing. Her weaknepss became her weakness and this sent her packing from the house unceremoniously after getting disqualified for physical violence.
Now let's understand how the dynamics of the entertainment world works, becoming a celebrity can happen overnight. Its requires both hard work and sometimes nothing really...yea like nothing, just do something crazy (Thanks to social media) and you are on your way to becoming one of the most talked-about persons in the country.
Tacha basically became more famous for her abrupt time in the BBNaija house, which was marred with events that a lot of people would gladly erase from their memories.
If you say Tacha is a celebrity then you are totally right. This young lady who was not so popular among a lot of people across the continent became a talking point at local bars, saloons and even corporate environment for months.
Let's not forget how she trended on social media anytime something crazy had happened in the house. Everyone talked about her, "Tacha this...Tacha that..." to the point that she even made it to the front page of a national daily.
A distasteful and unimpressive attitude should never be encouraged but let's be sincere with ourselves, some people have actually risen on that pedestal. While a lot of people were calling her out in the house, her ratings kept on increasing outside the house.
Since getting disqualified, several people have announced on social media about how they plan to reward Tacha financially and the numbers aren't slowing down.
The social discuss of Tacha's attitude while in the BBNaija house will linger on but one thing remains sure, she is going to be here for a long time. Already, her social media followers have skyrocketed and she's inching close to a million followers on Instagram alone. Not to forget that her Instagram page has been verified, all thanks to her team and pain sticking die-hard fans.
Like she wrote in her press statement immediately after getting disqualified from the BBNaija reality TV show, she would be working on herself in the coming future and we pray she keeps to her words and not make it sound like another "Lemme make them happy" press release.
It is now left for her to redeem herself or become the next biggest controversial celebrity. We will be here to spoil you all with the gist bit by bit.
