Just when I thought Pinoy Big Brother was getting interesting again, reality hit me harder than any twist Kuya could come up with. Klarisse De Guzman and Shuvee Etrata — two of the few housemates who were actually bringing substance, talent, and authenticity into the house — have been evicted. And honestly? It feels like a betrayal not just to them, but to the entire concept of the show.

They say PBB is about "being real," "building connections," and "being competitive." But after this eviction, it’s obvious: none of that matters when you're up against fat wallets and flashy fanbases. All those values they keep preaching inside the house? Thrown out the window the moment the votes were counted — not by merit, but by money.

Let’s be honest here. Klarisse has a voice that commands respect. Shuvee had wit, charm, and sincerity. They weren’t just floating around the house for screen time. They worked, they opened up, they showed growth. And yet, that wasn’t enough. Why? Because in this game, it seems talent and effort are no match for influence and wealth.

It’s incredibly frustrating. PBB once felt like a social experiment — now it feels like a spending competition. Whoever has the richest fans, or the strongest sponsors, or the most screen time with a love team… wins. And the rest? Pack your bags.

What’s even more disheartening is the likelihood that someone who’s done nothing but flirt, pose, or act cutesy might just end up winning this whole thing. No contributions to the group, no meaningful stories, no standout moments. But hey — they have a fanbase willing to throw money behind every text vote. That’s all that matters now, right?

This isn't about being bitter over a favorite being evicted. It’s about the death of what PBB used to stand for. When you remove people who are genuinely giving their best, and reward those who are merely popular or funded, what are you really promoting?

Sadly, it’s not “the voice of the people” anymore.

It’s “the wallet of the privileged.”
