Shaffie for Big Brother show?

Nairobi, Kenya: Word on the street has it that celebrated radio host and versatile showbiz personality Shaffie Weru is being considered to represent Kenya in this year's Big Brother Africa reality TV show that kicks off in South Africa in September.

The controversial star who poses a bad-boy persona is said to be among three other media personalities, a fashion model and a socialite being considered for the global show.

However, Shaffie has remained shy from discussing the issue. Last year, Shaffie had been tipped to represent Kenya in the reality TV show. He later told the media that he was not so interested with staying in an 'enclosed house' while "I could be out here making money".
