‘It was paid in full’ – Khosi Twala on receiving her R1.8 million prize

2y By Limpho Nonkonyane

Big Brother Titans winner Khosi Twala sets the record straight on her R1,8 million cash prize.

Khosi, who won the reality series in the third season shared a screenshot which showed that she received her money from the show, this revelation comes after former contestants from the season, Blessing “Nana” Basheru and Justin Peters, complained about not getting their money from the weekly arena games.

Big Brother is a popular reality show where contestants are under 24/7 surveillance and compete for a cash prize.

Both contestants took to X (previously known as Twitter) where they demanded to be paid their money as it’s been almost a year.

Nana wrote:

“I’m gonna mention some brand names by tomorrow because they need to pay up Haba 1 year after the show and you guys haven’t paid, is it fair?”

Justin added:

“Imagine sponsoring new shows when you still owe people money. Scammers will stay scamming.”

Internet users then started questioning Khosi on whether she received her money or not, in response she produced a screenshot which shows that the R1,8 million cash prize entered her bank account.

Speaking to TshisaLive, Khosi says that the contract stipulated that she would be paid two months after she was announced as the winner which she was.

Khosi further explained what happens when you enter the Big Brother house saying, “When you sign a contract to go into the house, they specify that you get your money one to three months after the show, so it was well within the time frame that I had signed for. Those who say they have not received their money I am not sure about, but I certainly received mine almost a year ago.”
