PBB Unlimited BIG 4 Announced!

Pinoy Big Brother Unlimited has finally uncovered this edition's BIG 4 three days before the Big Night at the Grandstand. This was after an overnight one vote per sim voting.

The PBB Unlimited Big 4

• Pamu Pamorada - 12.51%
• Paco Evangelista - 16.91%
• Joseph Emil Biggel - 15.56%
• Jan Slater Young - 49.51%

The last evictee of the season happened to be Divine Maitland-Smith who got the lowest percentage of fan votes with only 5.51%. 

It can be noted that Slater moved from the last voting tally 4 notches to get to the top. Biggel eventually fell to 3rd place while Paco moved up to 2nd place. Pamu remained in the 4th spot, enough to topple Divine which  dropped to 5th place. This big change in the percentage of votes tally is the effect of one vote per sim overnight voting.

Now that we already have our PBB BIG 4, it's time to choose our BIG WINNER. Voting will be reset and the Big 4's votes will be back to zero. The start of voting for the Big winner will be announced in later episodes (perhaps tomorrow) so watch out for more updates on PBB Unlimited.

Watch the PBB Unlimited Big Night live this Saturday, March 31 at the Quirino Grandstand. Admission is free so better get there early to have the most convenient place. Don't forget to bring your umbrellas.

Will it be 'Big 4' or 'Big 5' in PBB Unlimited?

Tin named newest evictee. Biggel leads latest overnight voting.

Before viewers get to vote for their favorite housemate for the Big Winner title, the five remaining housemates of “Pinoy Big Brother Unlimited” namely Biggel, Divine, Paco, Pamu, and Slater have to first go through a special challenge that will give them the chance to grab another slot to add to the usual Big Four slots at the Big Night.

For the first time in PBB history, the housemates were offered the ‘Big Shot for a Big Slot’ task that will determine if all or only four of them will battle out for the Big Winner title at the much-awaited “PBB Unlimited: Big Night at the Grandstand” to be held at the Quirino Grandstand in Manila this Saturday (Mar 31).

If Biggel, Divine, Paco, Pamu, and Slater fail, one of them will get the boot. If they succeed, each of them will automatically secure a slot at the Big Night. What test will Big Brother give them now?

Meanwhile, mentions on Tin, who was evicted from the Big Brother house last Saturday (Mar 24), flooded Twitter worldwide, clinching two spots in the micro-blogging site. Tin’s eviction shocked many viewers as she usually dominated previous voting polls in the season.

Tin, daughter of basketball superstar Alvin Patrimonio, fell short in gaining support from her fans and managed to garner only 11.50% of the votes versus Slater (14.16%), Pamu (17.26%), Paco (18.39%), Divine (19.20%), and Biggel (19.49%).

Who will go head-to-head for the Big Winner title at the Big Night?

Paco 'came out' to Tin, Discovered by Slater

After successfully uncovering wildcard housemate Paco’s supposed homosexuality, a made-up lie he confessed to Tin, Big Brother challenged Slater to turn the tables on Paco and test his patience, a task successfully carried out by Paco as a house player.

Former evictee Paco, who was reconfirmed as an official housemate last weekend in “Pinoy Big Brother Unlimited,” had earlier ‘came out’ to Tin as a part of his house player duty. This week, will Slater prove to be as daring as Paco and be able to infuriate him?

Eleven days before the much-anticipated Big Night, Biggel, Divine, Paco, Pamu, Slater, and Tin have been tasked by Big Brother to complete a nonstop entertainment challenge where they have to come up with unlimited performances in 48 hours. The next evictee of the season will also be revealed this Saturday (Mar 24) in the program’s 14th eviction night.

Meanwhile, the Chicago native Carlo was evicted last Saturday (Mar 17) after garnering the lowest percentage of votes (18.54%) against Divine (21.01%), Slater (26.79%), and Biggel (33.67%). Carlo, meanwhile, expressed that he wants either Pamu or Carlo to become the Big Winner because of all the troubles they have so far endured in life.

Admission is free to people who want to watch the “PBB Unlimited: Big Night at the Grandstand” at the Quirino Grandstand in Maynila live next Saturday (Mar 31).

Don’t miss the exciting developments in the season’s last two weeks in “Pinoy Big Brother UnliDay” with Bianca Gonzalez weekdays after “Angelito: Batang Ama” in Kapamilya Gold and in “Pinoy Big Brother UnliNight” with Toni Gonzaga weeknights after “Dahil sa Pag-ibig” in Primetime Bida.

Carlo Romero - 18.54%

Joseph Biggel - 33.67%

Divine Maitland-Smith - 21.01%

Slater Young - 26.79%

Carlo was welcomed by Wendy Tabusalla in the outside world, cheering and handing a shirt with Carlo's name in it. Now that Wendy is single and ready to mingle again, will Carlo pursue Wendy outside? This will be a good news for CaNdy fans.

Courtesy of Paco Facebook Official

Meanwhile, ex-housemate Paco Evangelista is back on the game as a wildcard housemate. After a 24-hour voting period which started last Thursday night, 73.37% of PBB fans who voted wanted Paco back as an official housemate while only 26.63% disagree. This decision will now give Paco the chance to be included in the Big 4 and eventually, for the coveted Big Winner title.

While this may be a good news for Paco's fans, many other PBB fans cried unfair for Big Brother's decision to give the said chance only to Paco, ignoring the other previously evicted housemates, more so the others that exit voluntarily.

PBB Unlimited Housemates Lost To M5 in Box Task

Pinoy Big Brother Unlimited housemates lost their box task to the avenging M5 (Yes, because Kigoy is already out of the house for pursuing and being violent with housemate Kevin). The said task required the housemates to keep the box out of sight of the M5 and protect it in whatever cause.

Paco came up with a great idea of using housemate Eting as a charity so that the merciful housemates will be able to donate the box to Eting. However, this story was only a made up so that the M5 will get the box and win the task.

After what happened, Tin broke in tears and the housemates were rattled of what Big Brother and the M5 came up with just to win the game.

More exciting happenings will be served this week on PBB Unlimited so don't dare miss one episode as the Big 4 will be revealed soon. Who is deserving? Watch and decide.
