Celebrating in style, Khosi was presented with the US$100,000 grand prize and loudly cheered on by the vibrant studio audience, marking the end of an unforgettable first edition of Big Brother Titans.

The highly anticipated, border-breaking #BBTitans was a fusion of Big Brother Mzansi and Big Brother Naija, featuring 20 housemates from both countries. With the whopping US$100,000 up for grabs, the housemates competed in various tasks and challenges, with the audience voting on who they wanted to stay in the game and ultimately win.

After several intense weeks, Khosi (South Africa), Ipeleng (South Africa), Ebubu (Nigeria), Tsatsii (South Africa), Kanaga Jnr (Nigeria) and Yvonne (Nigeria) made it to the finale – hoping fans who followed their journey would resonate with their game strategies and entertainment to win the competition.

In the end, Khosi emerged as the winner. She was overwhelmed with joy as she was presented with the prize money.

The Big Brother Titans season featured several gracious and bright characters who stood out from the others and made it into the finale.

First out of Biggie’s house during the finale show was this season’s Supreme Veto Power holder and first to make it into the finale, Ipeleng. Her exit was followed by that of Ebubu, Yvonne, Tsatsii and lastly Kanaga Jnr the runner-up to the grand prize.

As co-hosted by BBNaija’s Ebuka Obi-Uchendu and BBMzansi’s Lawrence Maleka – for this season of the much-loved franchise – the spectacular finale featured performances by Mayorkun, DJ Maphorisa, Visca, 2woshort and Stompiiey and the Bontle Modiselle Dance Studio.
