MANILA — The last Kapamilya artist to be eliminated from “Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Collab Edition 2.0,” singer Carmelle Collado, revealed the most important lesson she took away from Big Brother or Kuya.

Collado, also known as Ang Riles Diva ng Camarines Sur, stated in an exclusive interview published by the popular reality show that her favorite lessons are to open up and never give up.

Collado said in a recent interview that she learned the value of self-awareness and accountability from Big Brother, particularly when living with people who have diverse personalities and backgrounds.

Marco Masa, star of Carmelle and Kapuso, did not advance to Kuya’s Ultimate 8 last Saturday after earning the fewest votes from the general audience.

The remaining housemates continue to compete in “The Ultimate Tapatan” on Day 123 of the popular reality program, with former roommates acting as the jury.

Carmelle says the event taught her to choose kindness even when there is conflict, listen more, and react less. She recounted how, once housemates learned to speak honestly with one another, miscommunications frequently turned into learning experiences.

Since leaving the PBB house, Collado has been focusing on her personal growth and career outside reality television. She admitted that the lessons she learned inside the house continue to guide her decisions, especially when dealing with pressure and public scrutiny.

Fans praised Carmelle for her honest reflections, with many saying her words resonated with their own experiences. Some viewers shared that her journey on the show inspired them to become more mindful of how they treat others.

As former housemates continue to reflect on their time inside the iconic house, Carmelle Collado’s story serves as a reminder that Pinoy Big Brother is not just about competition—but also about personal transformation.
