Roseline Omokhoa Afije, known to millions as Liquorose, is a Nigerian professional dancer, choreographer, actress and reality television star who finished as runner-up of Big Brother Naija Season 6 in 2021. Born on March 31, 1995, the 31-year-old is one of the most successful alumni the franchise has produced — and one of the few who arrived at the house already famous. Before the show she was the leader of the GGB Dance Crew (Girls Gone Bold) and an established actress and video vixen, and since leaving the house she has grown into a powerhouse influencer and brand ambassador.

Biography & Early Life

Liquorose was born Roseline Omokhoa Afije in Surulere, Lagos State, into the family of Mr. and Mrs. Omokhoa. She hails from Edo State — of Bini heritage, from the Otuo community — but was raised in Lagos, where the city’s music, dance and street culture shaped her from childhood. A self-described tomboy with a down-to-earth, go-getter spirit, she loved singing, cooking, reading and writing, but dancing was the passion that took over.

She completed her primary and secondary education at Itire Nursery and Basic School and Del International College in Surulere, and later graduated from the University of Lagos. She has three siblings — Victoria, Godfery and Ronald Afije — and has spoken about working hard to support her family from a young age.

BBNaija Journey

Liquorose entered the Big Brother Naija Season 6 “Shine Ya Eye” house in 2021 already a household name in entertainment circles. Unlike most housemates, she brought a professional résumé: dance-captain credentials, music-video appearances and acting roles. Over the season she became a fan favourite for her discipline, emotional depth and calm authority, winning a string of tasks and surviving to the final night. At the grand finale she finished as first runner-up to Whitemoney, who took the ₦90 million grand prize — a near-win that, like other famous runners-up, proved to be a launchpad rather than a loss.

Career After BBNaija

Her runner-up finish supercharged a career that was already in motion. As an actress, Liquorose built on early roles in the award-winning TV series The Johnsons (2012), the film The OAP (2015) and the short film HEX (2016), going on to star in Nollywood features including The Oguike Sisters (2023) and Christmas in Lagos (2024). As a dancer and choreographer she continued to headline major events across Africa, while her social media following — over a million followers on Instagram — made her a magnet for fashion and lifestyle brands. She has served as a brand ambassador for companies including MKH Properties and Wakanow, alongside deals with names such as Tecno. Her annual December charity initiative in Edo State, providing food, clothing and school support to underprivileged children, has become one of the most consistent philanthropic efforts of any BBNaija alumnus.

Net Worth & Income

Liquorose’s net worth is estimated at $30,000 (approximately ₦40,200,000), a figure reported by Nigerian biography outlets — modest compared with some alumni, but consistent with an entertainment career built largely on craft rather than a single big break. Her income streams include brand ambassadorships and endorsement deals, dance and event performances, acting roles, paid appearances and influencer partnerships. Industry observers note that her steady, diversified portfolio has made her one of the most durable earners of her season’s cast.

Personal Life

Liquorose is not married and keeps her private life largely out of the spotlight. In a candid podcast interview she has discussed her family ties, the origin of her stage name — a blend of “liquor” and “rose” symbolising confidence and coming out of one’s shell — and her fondness for the simple life beyond the cameras. The 31-year-old splits her time between Lagos and her charity work in Edo State, and describes herself as a down-to-earth go-getter who can glam up when the occasion demands it.
