Pinoy Big Brother ia not an "artista" search!




Pinoy Big Brother is up for another season with its Double Up edition set to begin on October 4. But while former housemates like Sam Milby, Jayson Gainza, Kim Chiu, and Gerald Anderson have made it big in showbiz, Business Unit Head Laurenti Dyogi stressed that PBB is not an “artista” search. “Hindi naman talaga artista search ang PBB. Nagkakataon lang na talagang nakakahanap kami ng mga pumapasok sa bahay ni Kuya na magiging sikat paglabas. Noong season one si Sam at si Jayson ang pinakasikat. Si Zanjoe (Marudo) kahit hindi nanalo napakasikat ngayon. Si Ejay (Falcon) sikat ngayon dahil sa Katorse. I think ang pinakasumikat talaga e sina Sam, Kim, at Gerald.”

Direk Lauren confessed that getting “good-looking” people as housemates is a major consideration for the show. “Plano talaga namin na may ilang papasok sa bahay na may hitsura, whether maging artista sila later on or not. It’s a requirement not just of ABS-CBN but also of Endemol (the Dutch company that owns the Big Brother franchise) in all the Big Brothers around the world na merong may hitsura sa loob ng bahay. Dahil nagpapasok kami ng mga may hitsura kadalasan they would make it in showbiz.”

But Direk Lauren clarified that looks are not the only criteria of the screening process for PBB. He said that what matters most is if a person has an interesting story to tell on television. “Lagi namang based on personality ang pagpili namin. Kukuha ka ng maganda, pogi, kalog, pasaway, dapat iba-iba. Dapat maging maganda ‘yung mix nila kasi hindi naman pwedeng lahat maingay o tahimik. Talent is just a plus pero hindi naman talaga kailangan. Tinitingnan talaga namin ‘yung mga nago-audition kung magiging interesting silang panoorin sa TV.”

The head honcho of PBB also talked about the restructuring of the PBB house interior. A new design was adapted which explains why this season is called Double Up. “The lot is just the same, ‘yung configuration lang ang binabago every season. Nabago ‘yung hitsura ng interior because merong pakulo this season. Siyempre may confession room pa rin, dining, kitchen, bedrooms. The swimming pool will still be there. Medyo mahal ang paggawa ng bahay ngayon. Para kang nagpatayo ng bahay sa Alabang. Ganun kamahal.”

On the night of October 4, housemates from as far as Europe, North America, and neighboring countries in Asia will soon be introduced to audiences. In a VTR shown during the PBB press con, there was a sneak peek of the incoming housemates, like the Romantic Stud ng Samar, Sassy Vamp ng Cebu, Boy Astig ng Mindoro, Inday Kengkay ng Gen San, Richie Rich ng Cebu, Simpatikong Kusinero ng Batangas, Conservative Pharmacist ng Tondo, Struggling Mom ng Davao, and the Young Widow ng Pampanga. Direk Lauren said that they won’t be spending less than 100 days inside the house and they might even have to celebrate Christmas and New Year with Kuya.

Gaby dela Merced's advice to new Housemates!




Gaby dela Merced was very happy to be reunited with her fellow Pinoy Big Brother ex-housemates at the taping of an episode of Pilipinas, Game K N B. ABS-CBN.com spoke with Gaby backstage who expressed her excitement over the upcoming PBB Double Up season set to begin this October. “Ang saya na I can feel the PBB fever again. Nakita ko ‘yung mga dati kong kasamahan. Ever since naman I have been in touch with most of them and I’m just so excited to be seeing them again.”

Gaby was already a Formula 3 race car champion when she became a part of PBB Celebrity Edition 2 in 2007. While she finished PBB in third place, she said the lessons she learned as a housemate are reward enough. As someone who has survived the voyeuristic environment of the PBB house, Gaby advised the next batch of housemates to keep it real. “Don’t expect anything because you will have no idea what is in store for you. Enjoy mo lang bawat moment. I don’t know kung possible o effective ba talaga ‘yang mga sinasabing ‘strategies’ but as someone who had lived inside the house I believe it’s best kung magpapakatotoo ka na lang. Huwag kang maging plastic kasi eventually lalabas din ‘yung tunay mong ugali.”

Gaby also advised the new batch of housemates to trust PBB’s Kuya who still has the best of intentions behind his difficult tasks. “It depends kasi on how you will see Kuya. Either you will treat him as your guiding hand or someone you will go against. Based on my experience, it’s best if you will learn to listen to him. At the end of it all kasi malalaman mo na may reason sa lahat ng ginagawa niya. Hindi mo man maintindihan sa simula pero sa huli you will get to understand din.”

Gaby revealed to ABS-CBN.com that she just came from a racing competition in the US and will be flying back for another race. “I just joined a race last month sa US, malapit lang sa Los Angeles. Three hour race ‘yun and I placed second. May teammate ako and nasa likod niya ako pero hinimatay siya so I had to take over for the remaining two hours and thirty minutes. Aalis naman ako this Sunday papuntang Vallejo, California. Six hour race naman ‘yun so lately matindi talaga ang training ko. Meron nga kaming sasalihan this December na 25-hour race. Swerte nga namin because so far we’re leading in points so malaki ang chances na mag-champion kami.”

Apart from joining racing competitions, Gaby said that she is very much open to other showbiz opportunities. She once hosted the infotainment program Gaby’s Xtraordinary Files and is now a jock of Studio 23. But when asked if she is willing to do a sexy pictorial for a men’s magazine, Gaby explained that she will only do so for as long as it will be done it good taste. “I just got an interesting offer the other day. Pero kasi hindi ko pa alam. Siguro paguusapan muna namin ng manager ko. I can go sexy but definitely not all out sexy. For me it’s important that it is still done in good taste, maganda pa rin ‘yung portrayal.”
