Swiss opens up about his ambitions post Big Brother Mzansi

Former Big Brother Mzansi (BBM) contender, Siyabonga Swiss Mlangeni believes that the world is his oyster.

This was shared when he sat down with BONA to unpack his experience in the house and how it will work for him infiltrate the entertainment industry.

For most contestants, entering the house brings them much-needed exposure that helps them showcase their talents and strengths to a larger audience, this becomes advantageous to them as it helps them realise their dreams.

The 28-year-old who is a Cyber Security student from Pietermaritzburg, shared with BONA that he is proud of his journey in the house, and having reached Top 10.

“Having gotten to this stage in the game, I don’t feel ashamed or sad; out of 24 people I made it to the Top 10, I gave it my best shot and I’m proud of the journey,” he said.

He said that he plans to pursue all his goals such as acting, presenting and hosting.

“I will continue with event organising, who knows I might; I might take up DJing and broaden my horizon. I’m still going to finish school as well, Cyber Security is waiting for me when I get home.”

Swiss’s departure came right after they completed the endurance task of filling the jacuzzi with cups to restore money that was deducted from the grand prize for the boiler room goodies.

He let out a bit of a chuckle before he said: “When it came to filling the jacuzzi, I was really annoyed with it because people made it seem like we had to do it, but it was optional so that really irked me.”

When we asked who he is rooting for, without any hesitation he said he is rooting for Akhonamathemba Mbele better known as Sweet Guluva.

“I think Sweet Guluva has a great chance of taking the grand prize, because he is a down-to-earth kind of guy, and he really connects with the whole house. I really like his energy and his vibe. He is also a KZN boy, so I’ll have to go with my homeboy,” said Swiss.

He also revealed that he is keen to meet up with the infamous bandana boys, should a chance to reunite come up.
