Bio

Tamara Nyirongo is a Zambian musician best known as one of the housemates on the seventh season of the reality competition television series Big Brother Africa, in 2012.

Her partner in the house was her sister Talia Hayward. Their father was the late Zambian music legend Paul Ngozi.

Big Brother Africa Profile

Tamara is a musician, just like her younger sister and Big Brother StarGame partner Talia. She loves watching TV shows like Idols, Desperate Housewives and Prison Break and her favourite movies include Silent Hill and Lucky Number Sleven.

She likes actors like Gerard Butler, George Clooney, Angelina Jolie and Amanda Seyfried and musicians including Beyonce, Rihanna, Chris Brown and Michael Learns to Rock.

She was inspired to enter Big Brother StarGame by the possibilities: the exposure, chance to meet new people, and above all, the money which she says will change her life.

She is looking forward to playing the game with Talia because they have fun together, they want to see how they will get along with the rest of the Housemates – plus it was a long-standing dream of theirs to be on Big Brother together.

Tamara says she is talkative, frank, good, and has a cool temperament. She likes the fact that she "tells it how it is", helps people whenever she can manage and is a very happy person.

She likes people who help other people and dislikes control freaks, know-it-alls and gossips. Tamara promises viewers entertainment, a lot of dancing, laughter and talking on the show.

Her role model is her father because he was creative and talented and showed her she could be anything she wanted to be. She is most proud of her car, because it was something she dreamed of for a long time.

She likes Livingstone most in Zambia, and further afield, America because it's the land of opportunity.
