As the finale of Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition 2.0 approaches, only 10 of the original 20 celebrity housemates remain inside the Bahay ni Kuya (Big Brother’s House).


With the competition entering its most crucial stage, the housemates began gearing up for the “Big Jump”, a high-stakes challenge that guarantees a place in the Ultimate 8.


The remaining contenders were Ashley Sarmiento, Caprice Cayetano, Carmelle Collado, Carmella Ford, Heath Jornales, Joaquin Arce, Krystal Mejes, Marco Masa, Miguel Vergara, and Princess Aliyah.


After receiving the highest number of votes from their fellow housemates, Carmella and Caprice were the first to secure spots in the Big Jump challenge. Each contestant had to vote for the one whom they think deserves the challenge the most.


Housemates were also allowed to vote for themselves. The remaining eight housemates then competed in a separate task, where Marco and Joaquin won.


In the Big Jump, Carmella faced Joaquin among the Kapamilya housemates, while Caprice competed against Marco among the Kapuso housemates.


The challenge required contestants to carefully balance blocks while accumulating the highest possible points. For hours, the task tested housemates’ focus, strategy, and composure under pressure.


Eventually, Carmella triumphed over Joaquin, while Caprice defeated Marco. With their wins, both women advanced to the Ultimate 8. Joaquin and Marco are still in the game to compete for the remaining spots.


Viewers also witnessed  Carmella Ford celebrate her birthday inside the Bahay ni Kuya. Fellow housemates greeted her with warm birthday wishes as she woke up.


Joaquin, one of her closest friends in the PBB House, even prepared a simple yet thoughtful birthday meal of omurice and churros. The celebration became even more emotional when Carmella’s older sister, Magui, came to the House to surprise her.


The sisters had pasta that Magui cooked, making the occasion even more memorable.


While Carmella and Caprice have secured their spots, they still have to continue in proving themselves worthy as they aim for the ultimate title — the Big Winner of Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition 2.0.
