How I Was Dropped By A Brand Over An Interview – BBNaija’s Doyin

Ex-BBNaija housemate, Doyin David has opened up on how she was dropped by a brand who also requested a refund over an interview she granted.

She also admitted that during the Level Up season, she “faked” her character because she is not as mature as she was perceived.

She disclosed this while featuring on a recent episode of the CreativiTEA podcast hosted by Lynda.

“My first run wasn’t my best run, to be honest. I have been on the show twice, and I came out of the show, and I hated it. I was fake. I came out with the narrative that Doyin is too mature. She is always trying to talk things out; that’s not really me oo. In real life, I fight,” she confessed.

Elsewhere on the podcast, Doyin recounted how a brand terminated her contract because of an interview she granted.

The reality star said, “There is no bad or good brand. I had a brand that dropped me. They had signed me and paid me the money, but they called and asked for a refund, and it was because of an interview I did. And to be fair to them, I deserved to be dropped because why did I talk?”

Doyin was among the former Big Brother Naija housemates that returned to the House for the All Stars edition last year.

She was heavily criticised for being “a talkative”.

After her eviction, Doyin claimed that Nigerians are not ready for a reality TV show, slamming fans for voting against her because of her outspoken nature.
