“BBNaija Was Mentally Exhausting”- Doyin David Opens Up About Reality TV Experience

Former Big Brother Naija Season 7 contestant, Doyin David, has opened up about her time on the popular Nigerian reality show, describing the experience as mentally exhausting.

Speaking during a recent podcast appearance, Doyin criticized the show’s producers for how they represent housemates to the public. She explained that the editing and portrayal of contestants often lead to false perceptions of their real personalities.

According to her, these distorted narratives can have lasting impacts on the individuals involved, as viewers are given a misleading image of who they truly are.

She said, “When you go on a reality TV show. They portray you how they want to portray you. Not everything is how you really are, but they’ve given everybody an impression of you, and some of those impressions are not true. There’s a lot that people think about me and think I am, in terms of my personality, that is really not who I am at all.

“Being on a reality TV show, my experience was very challenging mentally, very exposing. I wouldn’t do it again for any amount of money. Except it’s a reality TV show outside the country, then I’ll probably take it. But Nigerians are too judgmental, so no, I’m not blessing them with my presence ever again”.
