A Nigerian lady who auditioned for the BBNaija Season 10 reality TV show has shared her personal experience from the audition stage, offering insight into the early impression made by one of the current housemates, Ivatar.
According to the lady, whose handle on X (formerly Twitter) is @Osunwede, she was in the same audition group as Ivatar and was immediately struck by her charisma and energy. She noted that even before the official selections were announced, it was clear to everyone present that Ivatar stood out remarkably and would be picked.
She wrote: “I went for BBN auditions, Ivatar was in my audition group & everyone knew she was gon be picked. It was so obvious, her aura is insane! It was bitter-sweet ’cause the rest won’t stand a chance then as they pick only one person per group. Next year, it’ll be me inshaAllah.”

This revelation came just after Ivatar was officially unveiled as one of the 15 female housemates for the new BBNaija season, which premiered on July 26. The unveiling sparked buzz online as fans and hopefuls alike reacted to the announcement.
The post also clarified that male housemates are yet to enter the house and will join the competition in the coming days, increasing anticipation for the next twist in the reality series.
The X post quickly went viral, prompting many social media users to flood the comment section with support, encouragement, and humorous takes.
