Robi And Josef's First Secret Task: Pretend To Be BFFs (Best Friends Forever)

OMG! PBB Teen Edition Plus is destroying a legacy that's older than ABS-CBN itself! The two "Plus" housemates Robi and Josef were given their very first task today. And this involved pretending to be BFFs or Best Friends Forever, just like Paris Hilton, Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan are to each other. Really, really far out if you ask me. Check them out, they're actually holding hands now (pictured). Hey big brother, can you spell ARCH ENEMY? OR would you rather prefer Robi and Josef sitting in a tree... K-I-S-S-I-N-G???

Actually, it's all part of big brother's plan to have the two "Plus" housemates fool the 12 official ones. What Robi and Josef are going to do is they will pretend to be BFFs for a while, complete with their trademark handshake, background story (how they met each other) and get this - a theme song! (Yikes! How many Ateneans and Lasallistas are having goosebumps right now? I'm not one but I'm getting goosebumps seeing these guys hold hands anyway!)

And unless Josef and Robi succeed in this first secret task of theirs, they will receive no grocery money from Kuya for one whole week. OK, it's for their own good after all, but still this is like having oil and water blend with each other. I wonder though, if their BFF thing will only last for as long as the task, or if they'll really become best friends in real life. What do you think?

PBB Teen Edition Plus Housemates Getting To Know Each Other

OK, day one just officially ended an hour ago for PBB Teen Edition Plus 2008. I'm sure the housemates felt at least a little pressure from spending their first day inside the Big Brother house without TV, a radio, newspapers, and communication. I think I remember there was someone in there who didn't know how to use a cellphone, so that person would probably be the only one not missing texting and calling friends. Anyway, since day one has finished, the housemates have had a little time in getting to know each other, and of course Big Brother didn't waste any time and gave them a game to play so that they could be more easily acquainted with each other.

Today, the housemates played a guessing game in the Big Brother house activity area. They were divided into two teams. The first team, composed of Alex, Nicole, Nan, Priscilla, Jolas, Josef, and Rona, is the Red Team. Then the second team is the Blue Team, composed of Ejay, Kevin, Linda, Beauty, Robi, Jieriel, and Valerie.

The game that they played, basically was a guessing game, where each PBB Teen Plus housemate would be given a flash card containing trivia (information) about another housemate and from that trivia he/she should guess who the other housemate is. So the object of the game obviously is to measure just how much you got to know your fellow teen housemates after the first night of being together. It seemed afterwards that not everybody had been acquainted with each other yet, and so most of the teen housemates had a hard time with the game.

In the end, the Red Team won over the Blue Team with just a one point lead, so you can imagine just how bad that made that Blue Team feel. Well, I have to admit, the game was hard to begin with. Anyway, the teen housemates will have plenty of time to spend with each other as the show progresses so the Blue Team's loss isn't really all bad. But a punishment will still be given to Ejay, Kevin, Linda, Beauty, Robi, Jieriel, and Valerie because they are the losers, of course.

Oops, forgot a housemate! Priscilla Navidad

This here is Ms. Priscilla Navidad, nicknamed the "Deaf Dreamer" from Davao. Talk about highlighting a handicap. Priscilla completely lost her hearing during her pre-teen years but she manages to get by using lip-reading. She must have really fast eyes.

PBB Teen Edition Plus Housemates Revealed (Pics Included)

Like I said earlier, the Pinoy Big Brother house has reopened yesterday and with that the PBB Teen Edition Plus housemates have been revealed. Down from a total of 30 PBB Teen Edition Plus audition finalists, the housemates were narrowed down to thirteen (13) lucky teens coming from different parts of the Philippines and even from some international cities.

Here's a quick summary of who the new PBB Teen Edition Plus housemates are.

PBB Teen Edition Plus Housemate: Josef Elizalde from Mandaluyong
"Lethal La Sallitte"

This guy is a "chick-magnet" from La Salle and he is one of the two "Plus" housemates added in to the PBB Teen Edition Plus mix. He is 16 years old, lives in Mandaluyong, and is some kind of a rebel. I'm sure a lot of girls will be cheering for this guy. Especially those who like "bad boys."

Sorry, but he doesn't have a Friendster account.

PBB Teen Edition Plus Housemate: Robi Domingo from QC
"True-blue Atenista"

This guy is the complete opposite of Josef (above) because all of the girls he has ever courted so far have dumped him, he's a shy-type kind of guy and from his looks, obviously a "good boy." He's 16 years old and lives in QC.

Sorry, but he doesn't have a Friendster account.

PBB Teen Edition Plus Housemate: Jolas Paguia from Bulacan
"Gentle Giant"

Jolas says he joined PBB Teen Edition Plus so that he could redeem his father's trust and enjoy the fruitful father-and-son relationship that they once had. He also dreams of becoming a professional basketball player. Don't we all?

Sorry, but he doesn't have a Friendster account.

PBB Teen Edition Plus Housemate: Valerie Weignmann from Germany!
"Dazzling Doll"

Hold the phone! Hot chick in the house! Valerie is, in speaking terms, tall, light-skinned, and drop dead gorgeous. I'd like to tell you more but I honestly can't remember her introduction. I'll be updating with more info about her on future posts anyway. So just stay tuned.

Sorry, but she doesn't have a Friendster account.

PBB Teen Edition Plus Housemate: Beauty Gonzalez from Dumaguete
"The Rebellious Beauty"

Hmm, this girl looks awfully familiar. And no, I'm not talking about the distinct possibility that we could be far relatives. I'm talking about her face... she kinda looks like that girl from the nineties. Oh well, she's a beauty in her own right, I guess. She's a rebellious little girl (16 years old) who apparently always gets what she wants. And those who stop her are destroyed (It says here).

Sorry, but she doesn't have a Friendster account.

PBB Teen Edition Plus Housemate: Jieriel Papa from Davao
"Bubbly Girl"

OK, did you know how fat this girl was before she was officially unveiled to the country in PBB Teen Edition Plus's very first episode. Take my word for it, she was not as sexy as she is right now. My hat's off to her for being disciplined enough to lose that much weight. Plus she's got the biggest smile I've ever seen. The question is, how long will this smile of hers last?

Sorry, but she doesn't have a Friendster account.

PBB Teen Edition Plus Housemate: Rona Libby from Dumaguete
"Prisoner's Daughter"

Rona Libby is a "girl genius" and former beauty pageant winner whose father is in jail right now for an undisclosed crime. I don't know how joining PBB Teen Edition Plus would be able to help her free her father but one thing I know is that she is a prisoner now herself. Thanks to the Big Brother house. Don't you agree?

~~Sorry, but she doesn't have a Friendster account.~~ ~~Do you think any of these guys have a Friendster account?~~

Update: Rona Marie Libby has a Friendster account after all. Click here to view.

PBB Teen Edition Plus Housemate: Nan Clenuar from Davao
Junior Kengkoy

No, no, no. This is not Johnny Depp. It's actually southern boy Nan Clenuar who's supposed to be the clown of the group. He's a young kid. I think he's only 17. Good luck to him.

Sorry, but he doesn't have a Friendster account.

PBB Teen Edition Plus Housemate: Alex Anselmuccio from Milan
Italian Valentino

This guy's got a nice Italian accent that I know all the girls are gonna go gaga for. He's a soccer pro back in Milan, Italy, and obviously loves sports. A lot of girls might find him young and attractive. Your thoughts?

PBB Teen Edition Plus Housemate: Linda Backlund from Iriga
"Bikini Babe"

Hallelujah! Another hot babe! Linda has nice curves, hence the name "bikini babe" and apparently like to go swimming. Will she be able to take the heat inside of the big brother house?

Nope, she doesn't have a Friendster account.

PBB Teen Edition Plus Housemate: Nicole Uysiuseng from Cebu
"Chinese In-Chick "

Wow, she's a cutie, isn't she? And I've got a fetish for chinky-eyed girls or "chinitas" so I'll definitely be keeping my eyes on her. She's my hot fantasy from Cebu. She doesn't seem to have a Friendster account but I've found a Multiply page supporting her. It's the Multiply page of her cousin, and it shows a photo of her before she entered the Big Brother house. Here's the link.

PBB Teen Edition Plus Housemate: Kevin Garcia from Madrid
"Spanish Stallion"

OK, here's another foreigner. And he's called a stallion? Just because he can ride a horse? So he's 16 years old, and can't speak tagalog. What's else is new?

Nope, he doesn't have a Friendster account.

PBB Teen Edition Plus Housemate: Ejay Falcon from Mindoro (He has a Friendster account!)
"PromDi Hottie"

Came from the province. Commercial model. Has a Friendster account. What else do you need to know?

Pinoy Big Brother PBB Teen Edition Plus First Episode Aired Yesterday

The Pinoy Big Brother house just re-opened yesterday, to welcome 12 new housemates for another round of Pinoy reality TV goodness. This time around, 12 teens are going to battle it out on Pinoy Big Brother (PBB) Teen Edition Plus. Now you might be wondering, what in the world does that extra "plus" mean in the title? Well, I apologize in the name of all spoilers but the "plus" in there actually denotes that aside from the usual 12 housemate/contestants that will be playing Kuya's game inside the PBB Teen Edition Plus house, there are two extra participants, two additional housemates that will be involved in Kuya's tasks and plans for the original housemates. So there's actually 12 PBB Teen Edition Plus official housemates, and then there are two additional housemates (hence, Plus) joining the gang. And that's a total of 14 official teen housemates.

From yesterday's show, it has also been confirmed the Luis Manzano will be joining the three lovely ladies (Bianca Gonzales, Toni Gonzaga, and Mariel Rodriguez) in hosting the new season of Pinoy Big Brother, PBB Teen Edition Plus. Here's the story published by ABS-CBN about the recent opening of the PBB house and airing of PBB Teen Edition Plus yesterday.

The most famous house in the country will open its doors once again this Easter Sunday to welcome its newest teen boarders during the premiere of Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition Plus.

A diverse group of housemates, a larger house, more challenging tasks and the unseen yet omnipotent Big Brother will once again keep the nation glued every night in ABS-CBN's Primetime Bida. The current season's new tag, "Plus," will also be revealed during the premiere.

The latest season of the teen edition of the hit reality show franchise also promises to showcase the best characteristics of the Filipino teenager.

Auditions were held in several cities across the country and abroad, and thousands of teenagers from all walks of life auditioned to become housemates.

Thirty potential teen housemates from different parts of the country, as well as from Filipino communities abroad, have been given "Dream Keys" by Big Brother, but only twelve will actually move on and live inside the house after a final round of housemate selection in Manila.

During the special PBB Teen Edition Plus primer aired last Sunday, several of the potential teen housemates have already been eliminated.

Aside from the trio of Toni Gonzaga, Bianca Gonzales and Mariel Rodriguez, MYX VJ Luis Manzano will be one of the hosts of the current season.

Gonzaga and Manzano will host PBB Teen Edition Plus on primetime. Rodriguez and Gonzales, meanwhile, will host PBB Teen Edition Plus Uber and PBB Teen Edition Plus Update, respectively.

The show has spawned the successful showbiz careers of former housemates, including teen stars Kim Chiu, Gerald Anderson, Matt Evans, Mikee Lee, and Aldred Gatchalian.

The grand season opener for PBB Teen Edition Plus will start at 9 p.m. The regular primetime edition of the show will air Mondays to Fridays, after Lobo. Uber will also air weekdays at 5:30 p.m., while Update will be shown at regular intervals throughout the day.
