[PBB Double Up] Goodbye Kath!

Kathleen Lopena-Ortega, popularly known as Mommy Kath, was evicted in tonight's live episode of Pinoy Big Brother Double Up.

She was welcomed to the "outside world" by her husband and ex-PBB Double Up housemate Jimson Ortega.

A big twist was announced after Kath's eviction, and it regarded the number of housemates that will compete in the Big Night. The originally final 4 housemates (dubbed as the Big 4) will now be 5!

So with only 6 housemates left, only one more will be evicted next Saturday.

Melai, on the other hand, can now breathe a little easier because she had earned a spot in the Big 5 through the series of competitions prepared by Big Brother.

But who among Tibo, Paul Jake, Johan, Mariel, and Jason will be evicted next week and not have a chance to be the Big Winner? Make sure to vote for your bets!

"Miss You Like Crazy"

After a successful pre-Valentine movie "Paano Na Kaya?" Star Cinema has another sure-hit movie that's set to hit the theaters after Valentine's Day, February 24th.

"Miss You Like Crazy" is the reunion movie of John Lloyd Cruz and Bea Alonzo after not doing anything together for some time. John Lloyd had been paired with Sarah Geronimo in two blockbusters which proved the fact that he could draw moviegoers whoever he was paired with.

With fans long-awaiting the return of Bea and John Lloyd's loveteam, not to mention the fact that John Lloyd is really a very good actor, it can then be said that this movie will surely be a hit.

[PBB Double Up] Sharon Cuneta Visits

Waving a white flag ahead of her, the megastar Sharon Cuneta entered the PBB House to "bond" with the housemates. She came bearing a basketfull of food because she "heard" what the housemates were going through. Most importantly, the megastar's main goal was to tell the housemates not to lose hope.

Ex-housemate and part of the resbak team, Delio was having second thoughts on sabotaging the remaining housemates. He was touched mostly when Jason gave him some of his clothes.

The resbak team tried to hit the towers made of domino pieces at the center of the pool, but they were heavily guarded mostly by Tibo.

Tibo, Johan, Kath, and Hermes are nominated this week. Be sure to support your bets by voting for them or by voting against the housemates that you don't like.

Showtime - The Return

"Showtime" returns on air today as the temporary suspension given by the MTRCB was lifted. The return was announced yesterday towards the end of the last episode of "Magpasikat" which made the hosts of the show teary-eyed with joy. "Magpasikat" was the show that temporarily replaced "Showtime" for a week while it was suspended.

ABS-CBN's official statement regarding the matter (issued yesterday):
ABS-CBN is happy to announce that the talent-variety program "Showtime" will return on-air starting tomorrow, 19 Jan 2010, following the issuance of a temporary restraining order by the Court of Appeals enjoining the MTRCB from continuing to enforce the preventive suspension order on the show.

We welcome the CA resolution dated 15 January 2010, which states: "For reasons afore-stated, and as prayed for by petitioner, let a TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER be issued, as it is hereby issued, effective sixty (60) days from notice hereof, enjoining respondent MTRCB, including any and all persons acting in their behalf and under their command and authority, from continuing to enforce the Preventive Suspension Order dated January 11, 2010 issued against petitioner, pending the resolution of the instant petition."

Vice Ganda, who acted as one of the hosts in "Magpasikat" returns to his seat as one of the judges together with Andrew E, Joy Viado, Wyngard Tracy, and Karla Henry.

[PBB Double Up] Tibo, Johan, Kath, and Hermes are Nominated

Hermes, Tibo, Johan, and Kath are nominated this week. But I think people would be busy voting against either Hermes or Johan. I don't like both of them. But if I were to choose between the two, I'd vote against Johan. Yabang!


Tibo and Johan got the highest number of points from among the housemates with 5 points each, while Kath got 4. Meanwhile, Hermes was the kulelat in their weekly task and he chose to be automatically nominated instead of giving 3 points against the housemate of his choice. If I were him, I would have given those 3 points to Johan. But don't you think he automatically nominated himself because he wanted to be with Cathy outside already?
