Toni teaches Mcoy and Yayo how to swim.

When Toni went inside the PBB house, Kuya told her that she can leave after she finishes some tasks. Last Monday, Kuya instructed Toni to teach Mcoy and Mommy Yayo how to swim. Her tip: “don’t fight the water, flow with it”. Being patient to her task, Toni finally succeeded, when Mcoy and Yayo were finally able to swim without her assistance (and without a kickboard 😉 ).

Having achieved their goal to learn how to swim, Kuya gave a prize for Mcoy and Yayo. Both being parents who misses their families, especially their children, Kuya gave Yayo and Mcoy a heartwarming surprise.

Though blindfolded, Yayo was given a chance to be with her youngest son in the confession room for a minute, with lots of hugs, kisses and loving words. Mcoy, on the other hand, was made to watch a video of her daughter while she was opening the gift he gave for her birthday (in exchange for him being a “barbie doll”). As expected, both parents became very emotional with Kuya’s surprise, but definitely charged with a renewed spirit to continue living inside the PBB house.

Will, willingly loses to Riza?

While riding mini-pedal trikes, the housemates had to outwin one another in this week’s Grand Prix to be the next Head of Household.

The housemates had to finish one lap for the first three qualifying rounds.

First round: Yayo, Mariel, Ethel and Riza (winner)
Second round: Victor, Jon and Will (winner)
Third round: Mcoy, Gaby and Ruben (winner)

For the final round (3 laps), Riza, Will and Ruben were contending for the Head of Household title. On Kuya’s signal, all three of them started to pedal, but Will was noticeably not doing his best on purpose (since he was obviously good during the qualifying round). Was this to help Riza take the lead? Ruben, on the other hand, was close behind. He nearly overtook Riza on the final lap, only if Will didn’t block his way.

Hmm…can this be love? 🙂 Crush lang siguro 😉 But it was sweet of Will to give way to Riza, even if he had a strong chance of winning and enjoying the perks of being Head of Household. Sorry Ruben, naharangan ka pa tuloy.

Where’s Gaby?

The housemates woke up last Sunday to find their racer housemate, Gaby Dela Merced, missing. So, where’s Gaby?

Maybe she went to the doctor. – Mariel
—
She’s my second crush in the house. – Baron
—
A housemate: Ano na kayang nangyari kay Gaby?
Ethel: Sinundo si KC (haha)
—
and again…

Ethel: nag-race yun…
Another housemate: talaga?
Ethel: oo, sa San Lazaro

Tama naman si Ethel, nag-race nga si Gaby, pero hindi sa San Lazaro, kundi sa Subic! Yep, you heard it right, Gaby was out of the house and back on the race track…just for a day.

After four months without practice, Gaby is back to burn some tires. Due to her long break, her trainer made sure that she run a few laps first for warm-up and to get familiar with the track. In the middle of the race however, she experienced some engine trouble and therefore had to stop for a while. When her team finally managed to change her engine, the battery just had to die too and add up to the tension. Must have been very frustrating. After changing the car battery, Gaby was off to race again. And just like any fairy tale…este telenovela (eto na pala ang uso), pagkatapos maapi ng bida, sa ending sya pa rin ang panalo!

Gaby won first place, and her win couldn’t have been so much sweeter.

“I was hungry for it. I was so hungry for it. It was against all odds, yet the universe was with me.” – Gaby

But wait a minute…
…pwede lumabas ng bahay Kuya?

OA lang ba si Mariel?

Last night, Big Brother gave Mariel a letter with Toni being the messenger of this letter. Sabi ni Big Brother kay Toni, hindi dapat malaman ng ibang housemates ang tungkol sa sulat na iyon. Pati yata sa mga viewers hindi pa pinapaalam kung para saan ang sulat na ‘yun. Kaya lang from Mariel’s reaction, mukhang tungkol yung sulat sa paglabas niya. Hula lang naman yun, yun din naman yung iniisip ni Mariel. Mariel could be wrong, parang ni hindi niya pa nga nabuklat yung sulat. Unless hindi na lang pinakita kagabi… Anyway, kung totoo ngang lalabas na si Mariel, mas matindi pa yung paglabas niya kaysa sa pagpasok niya. Pagpasok niya, I’m gonna die! 2x ang drama niya na understandable naman dahil nga sino ba naman ang hindi magkakaroon ng nervous breakdown kung ikukulong ka sa isang bahay at di ka paalisin. Kagabi naman todo ang iyak, hindi ko nga alam kung anung term yung dapat gamitin, kung iyak ba yun, o hikbi, or whatever. Siyempre nalulunkgot siya na aalis na siya. Ang hirap kasi hindi niya alam kung ano ba talaga siya. Feeling ko kasi nag-eexpect si Mariel na sia siyang regular housemate. Ako rin nung una akala ko ganun, kasi nga sa pag-uusap nila ng manager niyang si Boy Abunda, parang regular housemate siya at Boy even wished for her to win. Yun kasi yung mahirap kay Mariel dito. She doesn’t even know what she is, or what happens next for her. Parang nakabitin siya at anytime she can be pulled out. So what can I say about her crying last night? I don’t really know what to say. Siguro ang sasabihin ng iba, ‘ang arte naman ni Mariel’ or ‘ang OA niya naman.’ Kayo what do you think?

Jen, Hindi tanggap ang paglabas sa bahay ni Kuya

Alam naman nating lahat na na-evict na ang isa sa 2-in-1 housemates sa loob ng bahay na si Jen at Marylaine last Saturday. Kahapon medyo nasilip ko sa The Buzz yung interview ng dalawang 26k housemates, at kitang-kita naman sa iyak ni Jen na hindi pa rin niya matanggap na naalis na sya sa bahay.

Wait a minute! Rewind tayo ng konti. Nung unang araw pa lang na pumasok si Marylaine sa bahay ni Kuya, nalaman na nya, together with Donni Geisler, na 2-in-1 housemates sila ni Jen, who is a former 26k member na naalis dahil sa hindi nya makasundo ang iba pang mga kasama. Ayun na nga, napilitang makihiram ni Marylaine ng gamit kay Jen, dahil hindi binigay ni Kuya ang luggage nya. Parte yun ng kailangan nyang pagdaanan sa pagiging “package deal” nila ni Jen.

Obviously, hindi naging masaya si Marylaine. Feeling ko nga yun ding sama ng loob na yun ang naging dahilan kung bakit naging aloof si Marylaine sa simula ng stay nya sa bahay ni Kuya. Isipin nyo naman, ang hirap na ngang mag-adjust sa mga bagong kasama at sa isang bahay na puno ng camera, tapos mag-aadjust ka pa na wala kang sariling gamit. Huhu, nakakalungkot yun.

Naisip ko rin, syempre kahit papaano kilala na ni Marylaine si Jen, kasi nga nagkasama na sila sa labas na bahay, so hindi malayong kinabahan din sya nang malaman nya ang set-up na magkasama sila. Siguro naisip nya, kung hindi nakasundo ni Jen ang 26k girls, e may probability din na hindi nya makasundo yung mga housemates sa loob. Makes sense naman diba?

Anyway, forward naman tayo ng konti, nung nalaman na nga ni Jen na 2-in-1 housemates sila ni Marylaine at na-nominate lamang sya dahil sa mga boto ni Marylaine, e halos magwala sya. Well, I can say, she could come across na isang palengkera for some people. Tahimik nga lang si Marylaine nun e. Sobrang sinisi ni Jen si Marylaine for what happened.

Three things, hindi ginusto ni Marylaine na maging 2-in-1 sila ni Jen, at most definitely hindi nya gustong ma-nominate (sino ba?), at alam ko namang hindi nya gustong madamay si Jen sa pagiging nominado nya.

Eto lang masasabi ko, oo wala na silang magagawa sa pagiging nominado nilang dalawa, but for Jen to totally blame Marylaine for them being evicted? Sobra naman yun. Alam ko feeling ni Jen super gustong-gusto sya ng housemates inside, pero for her to think na ganon din ang feeling ng mga tao sa labas na boboto? Hmm…hindi naman automatic yun. Ang laki nga ng difference ng boto ni Megan versus the two girls e. This could just mean na kung hindi man masyadong gusto ng mga tao si Marylaine, hindi rin nila gusto si Jen enough to vote for them and save them.

So why blame it all on Marylaine? Nahirapan naman din sya sa set-up, if not mas nahirapan kay Jen. Kung ako kay Jen, tanggapin na lang nya ang nangyari and just focus on the good things she learned during the short time that they stayed inside the house. Yun ay kung meron nga (meron naman siguro). E mas marami pa yatang mga nanay ang kinabahan sa naughty image na ipinakikita nya sa loob nga bahay kaysa sa bumoto sa kanila e.

O sya, tama na ‘to. Kaya dapat laging tandaan ng mga natitirang housemates, bukod sa pakikisama sa loob ng bahay, boto ng tao sa labas ng bahay ang magliligtas sa kanila. So dapat pakita nila na karapat-dapat silang iboto, at karapat-dapat silang mag-stay.

Sa ngayon ba, sino sa tingin nyo ang pinakamalakas na contender sa pagiging PBB Celebrity Season 2 Big Winner? Hindi pa kasi ako makapili e, it’s too early for me to tell. Kaya abangan na lang natin ang mga susunod na mangyayari sa loob nga bahay ni Kuya!

It’s Toni’s turn inside the PBB house!

“I’m gonna die, I’m gonna die!”

That was Mariel’s hysterical lines when Big Brother surprisingly announced that she was going to be a houseguest. Now, it’s main PBB host, Toni Gonzaga’s turn to live inside the PBB house.

The day after Mariel went in the house, Kuya fooled around with Toni, when she brought housemate Ethel Booba in the house. Toni, obviously uneasy knowing what happened to her co-host the previous day, kept asking “Kuya, pwede na ba kong lumabas? Sino pong magho-host ng show? Live pa po ba tayo?” Kuya simply answered “Sige Toni pwede ka nang lumabas…kung makakalabas ka.” And to poor Toni’s surprise, the door was locked. She was almost crying, pleading to Kuya that she has a scheduled shoot the next day. To her relief, Kuya let her go that time.

Last night was a different story. While she was inside the house to “award” medals to the second round of nominees, Kuya called her to the confession room once again. “Toni, matagal na kitang nakakasama sa PBB, pero hindi pa kita lubusang kilala”. Toni was instructed to get the box beside her, which made her sure as to what was going to happen next.

The box contained her lapel mike, making it official that she is the newest PBB houseguest! She was definitely more calm than Mariel was, maybe because after Kuya fooled her the first time, she knew that she could be sent inside the house any moment. Though someone else might have packed her things for her, I think Kuya’s teaser helped prepare her mentally and psychologically for what she was expecting to happen. For sure, her manager already arranged her tight schedule to accommodate her indefinite stay in the house.

I’ve always tried to imagine Toni living inside Kuya’s house. And now that she is, I think she’ll be a good balance to Ethel Booba (since Jen isn’t around anymore…hehe) and Baron Geisler. What do you think?

C’mon guys! Panoorin na natin ang drama sa likod ng totoong buhay ni Toni Gonzaga! =)

Second Nomination Night: Megan, Zara, & Baron (plus Donald) nominated for eviction!

The second nomination night again sees Megan as a nominee for eviction, as she was automatically nominated by Ethel Booba, the current head of household. If she would only try to clean up her act and simply fit in with the rest of the housemates, maybe she’d last this round of evictions. But at this point, would it all be too late?

Also nominated is Zara, who figuratively doesn’t exist at all. With the way things are going, she isn’t making any impact and might not get enough votes to keep her inside the house. At the end of this round, she simply might be evicted for not having enough impact at all, be it positive or negative.

Lastly, two–in–one housemates (and brothers) Baron and Donald are also nominated, though they are likely to survive with the way things look.

The coming week will be very interesting as these housemates do their best to save their slots in Pinoy Big Brother.

Jen and Marylaine evicted!

Perhaps a result of their constant bickering, Jennifer Da Silva and Marylaine Viernes are the first evictees of Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Edition 2. Though they have worked together as 26K girls in the game show “Deal or No Deal,” they were always bickering and catching too much attention for their own good. Megan Young was sobbing though obviously relieved knowing that she will still be staying inside the house, at least until the next eviction.

A first for this season is the “PBB Walk of Fame” where evictees are made to dip their feet in presumably quick–dying plaster cement to document their stay in the popular big brother house. Hollywood–style honors?
