Renowned culinary expert Hilda Effiong Bassey, popularly known as Hilda Baci, has unveiled that she attempted to join the Big Brother Naija reality show on five separate occasions but was not chosen.
She expressed her intention to participate in the reality show with the aim of gaining fame before organizing her cooking challenge.
During her appearance on Cool FM Nigeria’s show “The Big Friday Show,” hosted by reality TV personality Tacha, Hilda Baci, the Guinness World Record holder, shared this information.
She said, “I actually tried to get on Big Brother [Naija] for a while. I think I auditioned about four or five times.
“The plan for the cook-a-thorn was still in the pipeline, so my goal was to go to Big Brother and then come out and do the cook-a-thorn.”
Recall that Hilda Baci achieved recognition from Guinness World Records for becoming the latest record holder for the longest individual cooking marathon.
