Ella Cayabyab

Twenty-year-old Ella is nicknamed the Ra-kweentera of Quezon Province. Her grandmother raised her after her parents separated. She used to join pageants to help with household bills. But since the pandemic started, her pageantry gigs stopped, so she turned to online live selling to earn some money. Like Andrea, she passed 13 out of 18 tasks she was assigned. For the past two weeks, she was nominated for eviction but always received overwhelming votes in contrast to her fellow nominees.

One of this season’s youngest housemates, Jie-Ann Armero is a junior high school student hailing from Sarangani.

Liofer Pinatacan

The so-called “Dong Diskarte ng Zamboanga del Sur” is a 21-year-old student worker who helps his father farm and his mother sell fruits in their hometown.

Liofer passed 8 out of 13 tasks he was assigned and received nominations twice.
