PBB Collab 2.0: Krystal and Ashley join The Ultimate Eight

Open voting commences on the Maya app to complete The Ultimate Eight, 7th VPCA Voting, also now open

The 7th and Final Nomination Night of Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Collab Edition 2.0 further intensifies with a mix of the 2nd Big Jump Challenge, which Krystal Mejes and Ashley Sarmiento clinch up to The Ultimate Eight, joining with Lella Ford and Caprice Cayetano, who have won previously in the 1st BJC, and the nomination of the non-winning housemates – Carmelle Collado, Joaquin Arce, Miguel Vergara, Heath Jornales, Marco Masa, and Princess Aliyah.

The 2nd Big Jump Challenge

For their 2nd Big Jump Challenge, as an Endurance Challenge, using a block holder, the players will place blocks in the holder and need to balance it using their hands. The number of blocks they received serves as their lives throughout the challenge, and every block that falls, their lives will be deducted as well. During this, Big Brother will announce additional conditions to win in this Big Jump Challenge.

  • For the Kapuso Housemates, Ashley Sarmiento, Marco Masa, and Princess Aliyah: Marco had 30 blocks, Ashley got 27, and Princess got 20, from the first part of their 2nd BJC. Because Heath Jornales collected only 11 blocks, he will not participatein the 2nd BJC and instead add the blocks to Ashley Sarmiento (upon his decision), who initially had 16 blocks. Princess was the first to empty all the blocks, followed by Marco, resulting in Ashley Sarmiento gaining a Kapuso Big 4 Spot for The Ultimate Eight.
  • For the Kapamilya Housemates, Joaquin Arce, Krystal Mejes, and Miguel Vergara: Krystal had 27 blocks, Miguel got 22, and Joaquin got 21, from the first part of their 2nd BJC. Because Carmelle Collado collected only 7 blocks, she will not participate in the 2nd BJC and instead add the blocks to Krystal Mejes (upon her decision), who initially had 20 blocks. Joaquin was the first to empty all the blocks, followed by Miguel, resulting in Krystal Mejes gaining a Kapamilya Big 4 Spot for The Ultimate Eight.

7th Nomination Night: Non-winning housemates from each BJC are nominated

With Krystal and Ashley joining The Ultimate Eight for the Big Night this February 28, 2026, along with Lella and Caprice (who have won in the 1st BJC a week earlier), the losing housemates from any part of the 2nd BJC, will be automatically nominated for the 7th and Final Eviction Night, scheduled to take place this February 21, 2026, a week ahead of The Big Night.

From there, viewers will have the power to vote on the Maya app for who among the six nominated housemates (Kapuso Housemates Heath, Marco, and Princess, and Kapamilya Housemates Carmelle, Joaquin, and Miguel) must be part of the other four vacant spots from the Ultimate Eight. The top two most-voted-for housemates from each agency will be part of The Ultimate Eight for The Big Night, while the third most-voted-for housemate will be the final evictee of PBB Celebrity Collab Edition 2.0.

As of February 16, 2026, at 17:00, for Kapuso Housemates, Housemate B received the most votes with 50.03%, followed by Housemate A with 31.78%, and the possible final Kapuso evictee, Housemate C, with 18.19%. For Kapamilya Housemates, Housemate D received the most votes with 74.31%, followed by Housemate F with 15.25%, and the possible final Kapamilya evictee, Housemate E, with 10.44%.
