March 6 ------ Bianca Gonzalez is looking forward to welcoming Gabbi Garcia and Mavy Legaspi into the “Pinoy Big Brother” family, saying she’s happy for the opportunity to work with them despite coming from different networks. Garcia and Legaspi were confirmed as the newest hosts of “Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Edition Collab,” a joint effort between ABS-CBN and GMA to celebrate the reality show’s 20th anniversary. The upcoming edition will witness housemates from the Kapamilya and Kapuso networks staying at the Bahay ni Kuya.
“This is the first time I will work with Gabbi. We did the pictorial together and we taped [for a show] which is so fun. With Mavy, I worked with him before where we did a panel discussion and I’ve always loved how articulate he is,” Gonzalez told INQUIRER.net during the MEGA Woman 100 book launch, when asked about working with the Kapuso stars. “I’m looking forward to working with both of them. In another world, hindi mangyayari ‘to But we’re able to work with each other despite coming from different networks,” she added.
Touching on the working relationship among the “PBB” hosts, Gonzalez said they always make it a point to make their newest members feel comfortable. “Whenever we have a new addition to the family, for example, last season Alexa [Ilacad] joined us. We always try our very best to [make them feel welcome].” “Kasi kami na ang mga ate at kuya, lalo na ako,” she continued. “We always try to make them feel at home. Every host who joined us has a unique flavor to bring to the table.”
As the new edition of “Pinoy Big Brother” is set to hit GMA’s airwaves for the first time, Gonzalez said she is still in disbelief over the reality show’s milestone. “I keep on telling our staff that even if we did the pictorial and contract signing… For 19 years, it has been on ABS-CBN and now even hearing our voiceover [being] different — because it’s the voiceover of GMA — hindi pa talaga siya fully nagsisink in. Feel ko during the launch when we air and the logo is up, d’un pa lang totally magsisink in,” she said. The host said one of the reasons why “Pinoy Big Brother” clicked is because it made the viewers feel involved with the lives of its housemates. “For some reason, as Filipinos, we love cheering for people or tearing people down. ‘PBB’ is a show where you can do all that. [On our end], every season, people’s lives literally changed. ‘Yun pa lang, enough na ‘yun to keep going,” she said.
During the interview, Gonzalez also expressed her gratitude to the lifestyle magazine for recognizing her through the many stages of her life. “I’m honored because there are many women who juggle [their responsibilities] while being [in different stages] of their lives. Yet, ‘MEGA’ still chooses me as one of the women they acknowledge and they’ll share the story of. More than anything, I’m grateful and honored,” she said.
The “Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Edition Collab” is set to air on Sunday, March 9.
