HOUSTON, TEXAS: 'Too Hot To Handle' is returning for Season 5 but with a thrilling twist. This time, the cast of ten singles will retreat to a lavish yacht in the Caribbean as they believe they are competing on a new dating show, hosted by a handsome and mysterious captain. However, the truth will soon be revealed that they are instead contestants on Netflix's hit show 'Too Hot To Handle' and they must refrain from all physical intimacy if they want to walk away with that whopping cash prize.

Among the contestants set to appear in the upcoming season of the Netflix show is Christine Obanor. Christine depicts flawlessness and charisma that leaves those around her craving for more and feeling lucky to just be in her presence.

Who is Christine Obanor?

Christine hails from Houston, Texas and celebrates her birthday on April 20. Born to Joanna and Ken Obanor, she has three siblings, Kenneth, Kevin, and Kelly Obanor. Her brother Kevin is a basketball player who plays in the NBA. She is a model and graduated from The University of North Texas with a degree in Merchandising and a double minor in Business Administration and Marketing. She kicked off her career as a server at Joe's Crab Shack while she was still in college before she went on to work for Victoria's Secret as a seasonal sales associate in 2017. Soon after college, Christine decided to venture wholly into a modeling career after a stint as a stylist. In 2020, she hit the runway at the New York Fashion Week. However, Christine later decided to put her minors in business and marketing degree to good use and ventured into entrepreneurship. She launched her own company, Beautifaux Nails, in 2020. Christine is a social media sensation with 34.2K Instagram followers.

Christine also has an Amazon Storefront through which she earns money by commission. Christine's social media bio states she's "the girl that every man wants but can’t have." Notably, Christine previously modeled for Anthony Hamdan Djendeli, a Los Angeles-based fashion designer. She is also a travel enthusiast who particularly prefers the beach where she often displays her perfect figure in bikinis. The 'Too Hot To Handle' Season 5 contestant loves to explore new places, cultures and food and share photos on her Instagram.

Christine will join the dating reality show with Alex Snell, Courtney Randolph, Dre Woodard, Elys Hutchinson, Hannah Brooke, Hunter LoNigro, Isaac Francis, Louis Russell, and Megan Thomson. "Being a fellow Stallion from Houston, [Christine] has an easy time meeting men, but is quick to get rid of them the second they think of another person.

She shared on her Instagram, "Bet you’ve never seen a 6’1 Goddess on your screen before, so let me be your first 😉Catch me on #TooHotToHandle Season 5 July 14th @toohotnetflix @netflixuk @netflix."
