In the Belgian edition of the program Big Brother, in which a group of contestants is put in a house for three months, constantly followed by cameras, one of the puzzles they have to solve is to find the name and title of a well-known song, helped only by vague clues given all through the week. The solution is ‘Kids in America’ by Kim Wilde, as is made clear in today’s edition. Kim visits the Big Brother house and talks with the contestants – who didn’t guess this song, by the way – for a few moments.
After this, Kim goes back to the studio to lipsynch ‘Loved’ at the end of the show.
