Lydia Forson has taken to social media to share why she is drawn to controversial housemate, Cee-C and how her personal battles reflects some of the realities many viewers deal with.
The infamous housemate is kinda gathering support from some celebrities, despite a wide backlash from other viewers of the show for her attitude towards Tobi.
One of these celebrities that have shown support, is Ghanaian actress Lydia Forson.
“I love Big brother because it forces us to have conversations we’d usually never have and expose our own understanding of people and the world around us.
Last year it was on sexual consent and this year is on anger management.
What people don’t appreciate is while you’re entertained, these housemates are confined to a space , forced to interact with people they’d never in the outside world and pushed to limits only those who’ve been a part can appreciate,” she wrote.
She continued,
She then went ahead to mention that she is not actually rooting for the housemate:
Many people recognize themselves in her struggle,a part of our lives cameras don’t always capture, a battle with strong emotions and self control- and we appreciated her journey.
And that’s why it’s been disheartening to read from people who I know DO NOT have it all together; but quick to join in to call her animal, unfit to live and a mental case( exposing your own ignorance about the real battle of mental disorders). If your prescription to a crazy person is to act crazy yourself then you both need to be locked up.
And no, this is not a campaign, because her winning the money doesn’t mean much to me;the winners of these shows aren’t always the ones with fat bank accounts after – that doesn’t always last – it’s those who take what the experience put them through and see the gold that it is to be better after.
Hopefully she’s made us reflect a little more on our lives, how we’re perceived by the world and what we can do to become better.
You might think you’ve got it all together until you have a camera follow you around for 24hrs.
