Last night i saw throngs of people auditioning for PBB in ABS-CBN and left me wonder why everybody wants to join PBB where in fact it is a ridiculous show where you have no privacy in Big Brother house. So this question dawn in my mind, if given the chance, would you like to join?

Yes of course. If given a chance, i would like to be one of the housemates too because it would give you another adventure in life like living without hassles. Living with the basic necessity in life. No cellphones, No hangouts, No gimmicks, and many much more. I would certainly be proud i am able to live life without the earthly materials.

Yes, that's true. PBB house offers comfort and fun, just imagine you just have to stay inside the house with lots of food, drinks and everything. Plus the fact that you will be seen on TV and become an instant celebrity. That's pretty amazing!

Who doesn't want to be known by millions of people worldwide? But for me, I'd rather not join in such a show because yes as you said I'll have no privacy then. All the things about me, my family, my work everything will be put on television and I guess it's no longer good. I don't have anything bad to say about those who aspire being chosen there. It's my own prerogative.We have different views in life. They have their own reasons why they join.So we will respect them.

You are right, one thing to be sacrificed when we aim to join PBB house is our privacy. Just imagine your life to be magnified on TV seen by millions. But for some people, this discomfort seems to be not a big deal and just go ahead to become a house mate.

sorry to the fans but i dont thnk i could last a week on the PBB house. no. 1 - i dont think i could live without computer or just TV (and cellphone) no. 2 - i have this moody attitude that surely not a good example for Filipinos no. 3 - i dont like being restricted in so many ways no. 4 - my privacy is so much important to me. and last but might not be the least - i never had a dream being a celebrity. im so much a fan of PBB but i just couldnt imagine my self being one of the housemates. maybe.... im the viewer type instead. ohh.. and by the way jlamela, is your primary photo taken from eden?! just asking.... hope u'll response. Happy Myloting

Yes, that's pretty true for people who cannot endure life in a very secluded environment. PBB house is really boring and sometimes not interesting especially if you can encounter house mates who have impossible characters.

Honestly, I have joined the PBB for its 2nd Season. Unfortunately, didn't even get into the cut off. I felt bad, and just had Thai massage after I didn't pick to let go of my frustrations. Lol But you know I think it was a good thing that I wasn't pick. I think that God didn't want me there, because there are better things in store for me. Which is it made me realized so many things I wanted to do with my life. I wanted to be on top in that instant, but I guess showbiz is isn't really for me. But given a chance, I think I'll take it, it's a good chance to be there, and to show who you are and to know about who you really are within. But whether I'll be in or not, it doesn't matter to me. I'm happy right now.

Wow that's great because you tried auditioning. But anyway don't feel bad if you haven't given a chance, you are right. God must have his own reason why you did not make it. God bless!

Hello, Yes, Toni Gonzaga is really a wonderful TV host. I am glad to meet her too if given the chance. PBB house I think is cool especially if you just know how to mingle different types of personality as what the case in the PBB house.

Yes you are correct, being a part of PBB is a once in a lifetime experience worth remembering. If I would given a chance maybe I will join but knowing how stiff the audition is, I better not to dare.hehehe. Being in the PBB house is really a huge deal, you've got to meet people from different background and different personality there's a chance that you will clashed. But the good thing is, you got to find out your endurance and patience.

Well there is a part of me that says yes but there is also a part of me that says no. Yes because out of curiosity perhaps gives me the idea that I need to know what really happens behind that house. But part of me says no because its like I am imprisoned and yes the privacy thing is not there anymore. People would watch your every move and judge you accordingly. I am not like that kind of a person. As much as possible I would want to keep things as private as possible. I also am not the type of person that really loves showbiz and am not planning to be in one pretty soon.

Actually there are lots of advantages and disadvantages in making decisions to audition to enter PBB house plus the fact that you will humiliated while auditioning. PBB staff sometimes make you fool during audition, that's what I have noticed in many auditions they organized. Maybe they just want to taste your endurance and your patient so that you will be a competent house mate later on.

Yes, the experience of being a housemate is very worthy, being a winner is only a bonus.

I wouldn't. Not unless I really really need the money. But since I'm doing pretty well right now with work, I don't think I'd ever embarrass myself like that in front of the whole nation. And besides, winning entails not only the house but also the publicity and an almost-obligation that you have to appear on television - I'm not into showbiz. I can do better in life than that. Thanks for the response on my discussion!

Hi jlamela If that opportunity means I don't have to wait in line and audience just like the others is doing, I would definitely like to join PBB. There are a lot of freebies there well of course, in return Kapamilya viewers are watching every move you make. have fun posting!

PBB really opens door for fame and glory. Any housemates who evicted from the house gain a lot over what they'd lost. It's a one in a life time opportunity really and it is just so nice to note that most of the housemates really wanted to make it big as soon as they step out of the house.

I will not join, its not my thing. Reality shows that require text vote for someone to win only encourages people to waste money through cellphone load. What do you get if you vote your favorite housemate, do you get reward?, none, instead you incur expense that you suppose to use on other productive things. In times of crisis every penny should not go into waste.

If I will be given a chance, to join in a reality show, I definitely join Survivor rather than that PBB. Its not worth to watch either and I never any episodes of it.

I think no I don't want others to see my daily activities on TV. I want my privacy and I don't others to tell me what to do. I love reality show but not PBB. I think they are joining there to be popular and for the sake of money.

I won't join PBB. I don't want to be stuck on a house where my privacy is totally invaded. Maybe it's worth a try if you want to be an actor or actress. I am contented with my life and I will never exchange my privacy for fun and money.
