There’s nothing wrong with it really and it’s the only thing they can do if they opt to stay in the house of Pinoy Big Brother.  I’m referring to the eviction nominees who were given chance to make an appeal to their supporters.

Here is a descriptive of the nominees for the coming eviction night on Saturday:

Fred - rule-breaker

           Joaqui - impervious tenant

                        Jam - the crying mother within

                                   Clare - clearly soft-spoken

They have made their appeal and things just now rest in the hands of their supporters.  Who are the next two evictees?!  My meditation points to Joaqui and Clare this time. 

Say something.

Four teen housemates are staying tough in the Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition: Kim, Matt, Mikee and Gerald. Of the original twelve (12) housemates since day 1, they are the most relaxed in terms of eviction. They are not included among the nominees.

Meanwhile, things are not seemingly going well for the Chickboy Joaqui as he is one of four nominees for two evictions this coming Saturday. Teenage mom Jamilla is starting to feel the tension with the tenants because she is also candidate for eviction.

Surprisingly, teenstar wannabe Olyn is hanging on tight. After being nominated on a couple of occasions, she finds a breather right now from the heart-pounding nominations.

Of the four nominees, my bets to stay are Mommy Jam and Clare. Give your comments.

A lot of friends have criticized the PBB Teen Edition to be the worst ever edition.  These are the things they say.

“There’s just a bunch of immature youngsters who’s only dream is to make it big in the cruel world of showbusiness.”

“I pity the youngsters and their families for exposing so much of their backgrounds only to be pissed off and doing the same pissing off to the others.”

“It’s predictable.  You can just close the TV set and guess that this housemate will fall for this and that other housemate, or you just tell your friend that this guy or girl will get jealous because of that other guy or girl.  And it happens.”

“There is not much variety in the way drama unfolds in the house because of their homogeneity in age and even in their backgrounds.”

“Only youngsters can relate to the situations.  The mature and oldies willl really find nothing so interesting in the way the teen housemates are making things.”

What can you say PBB fans?

Things went into almost a stand still for the girls when Aldred’s replacement, Joaquin Mendoza (a.k.a. Chickboy of Parañaque), entered the Big Brother’s House. Why sure! He’s got the looks to magnetize girls.

Joaqui confessed to having had five official girlfriends and about 20 unofficial ones. That’s 25 flowers for just one attractive bee! Anyway, he hopes to blend well with the 11 originals still in the House.

Aldred, the Kilabot na Valedictorian of Pasay, voluntarily left the house because of difficulties of adjusting to the conditions in the challenging reality TV program. His departure brought some emotions up especially among the boys who have bonded to a great extent after a week of togetherness.

But his replacement promises to be adaptable to the mix of personalities in the House. Joaqui actually knew Fred who he said was a school mate back in Davao. I would predict that Joaqui’s presence will create a stir among the emerging love duos. Let’s see who among the girls will fall for the physically magnetic chickboy.

In the coming eviction night on Wednesday, who will be saying goodbye: Olyn, Mikki or Niña? In my previous forecast, I hit the mark on Olyn but I missed out on Mikki and Niña. But the nomination of Olyn proves her scuffle with Mikki was her own undoing. Mikki’s nomination may have had a string attached to the same incident the two had earlier. Niña’s nomination is probably no surprise as she also showed some toughy interferences.

Two of the nominees shall go and my palmistry points to Olyn and Mikki. What do you say?

The first voluntary exit in the PBB Teen Edition is about to be revealed.  Who is this teener who decided to call it quits in Big Brother’s house?

I have a feeling it’s one who has so much attachment to forces outside the house.  This housemate may have had a hard time coping with the pressures and scenarios in the house that all he/she can hold on to keep his/her senses together is the life and memories outside the house forcing him/her to say goodbye this early.

Is it a he or she?  I have a feeling it’s a she as the girls show so much intimacy to family folks and higher tension in the challenges.  What’s the reason?  Is it something within the housemate’s personality or a family problem or both?  Let’s just see.

Also, tonight’s going to be a momentous evening as the housemates come together to face the first nomination for eviction.  I understand that one who will voluntarily leave the house will not be considered for the nomination.  How would the youngsters face each other and feel the drama as their choice of the most unwelcome member so far is revealed?

Who among the nominees shall be eventually evicted and who shall be saved?  It’s going to the next level now.  Brace yourself guys and gals.  Here is my forecast for eviction nominees.

1)  Olyn.  Her unwelcome remarks about Mikki’s dad was unpopular.  That could be her own undoing.

2)  Fred.  His perfectionism seems to be just going along.  There is much to expect from him but up to this point, he is just playing safe. . . to his own detriment, maybe.

3)  Mikee.  It may seem out of hand to have him nominated but his elitist background (though not so pronounced) is apparently rubbing on some of his housemates.  Can’t you feel it?

First showdown. Girls as expected. Olyn (teenstar wannabe from QC) and Mikki (ang orig na astig from Davao) had it really hot in their exchanges relating to the latter’s father. Olyn downgraded Mikki’s father and Mikki obviously didn’t like her housemate’s remark and she gave Olyn a lung-busting shout. The two, however, eventually reconciled.

Things like these make up the drama in this reality TV show. There will be more of this kind of encounters as each housemate opens up or is masked off.

The Jologs program of the GMA 7 has the making of a potential hit.  It delves into the day-to-day hassles that most of us go into as we walk through the rigors of life.  But instead of adding insult to injury, Jologs actually shows the enlightened and lighter side of life’s commonplace requisites.

But the main attraction of the program is the meaning of Jologs.  Who is a Jologs?  Well, if my opinion is not different from that of a real Jologs, I must say that he or she is one who has some sort of intelligent insanity or an ignorant intelligence.  Get what I mean?

Oh, it takes an Ethel Booba to understand me and if you’re not Jologs, how can you ever understand?  By the way, do you remember when Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo said that she won’t run in the 2004 presidential elections and yet she actually ran?  Also, did you get what she really meant when she said “I am sorry” on national television only to say that she is really elected by the people?  Is our President some kind of a Jologs?  JUst a question.

Two victims watching their predator preying on another one of their kind? To me, it sounds to good to be true.

Marco Antonio Barrera and Erik Morales, two of Manny Pacquiao’s knockout punch tasters, are rumored to be coming over to see the Pacquiao-Larios fight on July 2, 2006 at the Araneta Coliseum. If my mind serves me right, I don’t think the two will bite the bait! Why? It would be a “bow” to Pacquiao.

The Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Edition was such a hit.  Now comes probably another hit in the upcoming Teen Edition of the reality TV program.

What could be the defining factors to becoming the big winner for the young housemates on cue?  Well, here are some of my thoughts.

1.  Maturity.  I put this on number one because the challenges will test the inner character of the little men and women.  Note that teeners are in such a psychological equilibrium matrix that shakes them off to different mood swings and interests.  It’s gonna be exciting to see how the youngsters will behave properly in Big Brother’s House.

2.  Looks.  No doubt, this is a factor.  In fact, in the selection alone, this is already an important criterion.  But looks here does not mean the stereotypical one–the optical attractiveness.  Looks refer to a wider meaning which would include the invisible magnets in the youngsters’ outward appearance.

3.  Talent.  Are we going to see the successors of Aga Mulach, Richard Gomez, Dolphy, Bong Revilla, Ogie Alcasid, Gary V, Ai-Ai delas Alas,  Kris Aquino, Regine Velasquez, Judy Ann Santos, Christine Hermosa, etc.?  I can’t wait to see the multi-level teeny battles.

4.  The X Factor.  Whatever this is, it’s going to make a difference during each eviction.  Survivors will always have it and it will take a different form each time.  Let’s wait and see.

After coming up with the big win in the Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Edition, what could be in store for Keanna Reeves’ Future?

Will she continue to be the devil-may-care woman going to just any racketeering scheme even when it means cheapening her dignity however high profile her clients turn out to be? No, Keanna will never go back to a past so dark now that she’s in the limelight.

She plans on trying out at comedy especially that her short bites while in Big Brother’s House made numerous hilarious moments that showed the real Keanna very few people know.

I would love to see her do comedy but not the typical script-controlled one. She might well be better at unscripted or semi-scripted comedy. Remember that her comic self came out naturally in Big Brother’s house — no scripts, just simple unguarded moments of laughter-producing remarks.

In any case, the Keanna of the future is a Keanna with a new culture, a culture that would show her total transformation.
