Imisi Ayanwale, the winner of Big Brother Naija Season 10, reflected on the disparity between her social media presence prior to the show and her personality while on the program.

Imisi won BBNaija Season 10 on Sunday night?s grand finale in Lagos.

On Tuesday, she received her grand prize package of N150 million, which included N80 million in cash and a brand-new Innoson SUV.

In a post-show interview with BBNaija Season 10 host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, the reality star said that her social media posts and on-screen acts differed owing to relationship issues.

The Nollywood actress stated that before her BBNaija journey, her Instagram posts were influenced by her ex-lover, who loved makeup.

The 23-year-old reality star further explained that her personality, outfits, colourful hair, and makeup on the show were not part of her strategies.

?The image you saw on social media was me, but that version was influenced by the person I was dating. He loved it when I wore makeup and looked glamorous, so I did that to please him. He was basically my whole world then.

?But we broke up on April 1st, just before I auditioned in April or May. It was a hectic breakup, and I didn?t even have time to heal. So, going into the house, I didn?t have the energy to keep up that version of myself. Sometimes I just wanted to look at how I felt, free or messy.

?No, my appearance on the show was not a strategy at all. Sometimes I didn?t feel like doing anything. I didn?t have a ?safe space? in the house like some people did. Sometimes, I just wanted to be myself, even if it looked ?crazy? to others,? she said.

However, the TV reality star admitted feeling intimidated by other female housemates in her early weeks in the BBNaija house.

?I wasn?t confident at the start. Many of the housemates came from rich backgrounds. Their fashion and the way they spoke were intimidating. I?m honest with myself, and I admit I was intimidated, especially in the first two weeks,? the reality star said. (The Sun)
