After their 11th Weekly Task win (one among the three groups balanced the two towers at the right time, with two groups, led by the ex-housemates, failed to do so) and their accruing Maya savings of PHP 439,544.26, the housemates will face two of these happenings as announced by Big Brother – a Ligtask Challenge and a 5th Nomination Night, which puts six housemates are at risk of eviction.
For their Ligtask Challenge, each group will split into pairs. The first pair had to hold a platform with a ball at its center and navigate an obstacle course while ensuring the ball stayed on the platform. They must then transfer the platform to the other pair, and the other pair would go through the same obstacle course to place the ball in a box at the starting point.
Right after the Ligtask Challenge, Big Brother then announced that the results among the three groups will be safe or nominated. According to the official Ligtask results, Team Soaring Langga, comprising Krystal Mejes, Miguel Vergara, John Clifford, and Heath Jornales, did not place any of the balls, resulting in them receiving an automatic nomination. That group was the third placer from the Ligtask challenge, as the announcement implied.
For the second and first placers of the Ligtask challenge, Team Flap, comprising Fred Moser, Lella Ford, Princess Aliyah, and Ashley Sarmiento, got only one point. Team True-Pa, comprising Carmelle Collado, Joaquin Arce, Sofia Pablo, and Caprice Cayetano, got two points. The second placer from the Ligtask challenge will put two housemates at risk of nomination. At the same time, the other two will be safe for this week (each must select one Kapamilya and one Kapuso housemate).
For the first placer from the Ligtask challenge, all housemates of the winning group (Team True-Pa) will be automatically safe from nomination, and they will have the right to choose among the two housemates from the group that won from the Ligtask, as the second placers will be safe this week. And for this, Team True-Pa decided that Lella Ford and Princess Aliyah would be safe from nomination, thus making Ashley Sarmiento and Fred Moser vulnerable to eviction.
The voting lines for the 5th Eviction Night are now open exclusively on the Maya app. Just open the Maya app, tap the PBB icon, select the nominated housemate you want to save, and confirm your vote for as low as PHP 10 for ten (10) votes. The same voting mechanics as past evictions, including Padaluck, Gift of Immunity, and Wildcard voting, will apply; however, you must cash in your Maya wallet first before proceeding. Voting must end January 17, 2026, during the live 5th Eviction Night Broadcast.
Additionally, immediately after the announcement of the nominated housemates, the hosts revealed these four ex-housemates who will return as Wildcard Housemates for Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Collab 2.0. These ex-housemates are Anton Vinzon, Marco Masa, Eliza Borromeo, and Rave Victoria, all of whom received the top two most voted ex-housemates (two Kapuso and two Kapamilya ex-housemates) who must be part of the wildcard, as based on the official final tally of votes:
Kapuso Ex-Housemates
- Marco Masa (46.46%)
- Anton Vinzon (43.38%)
- Waynona Collings (7.49%)
- Lee Victor (2.66%)
Kapamilya Ex-Housemates
- Rave Victoria (39.48%)
- Eliza Borromeo (35.47%)
- Inigo Jose (24.42%)
- Reich Alim (0.63%)
As previously mentioned in the mechanics for the Big Wildcard, four among the eight ex-housemates will have the chance to return inside the house, comprising two Kapuso and two Kapamilya ex-housemates. The top two (2) voted-for Kapuso and Kapamilya ex-housemates on the Maya app will have the chance to return to the house as a wildcard housemate, and will take a head-to-head challenge between each Kapuso and Kapamilya housemate.
As Marco, Anton, Rave, and Eliza are among the four wildcard housemates based on the final tally of votes, only one Kapuso and one Kapamilya wildcard will have the chance to return as official housemates of Big Brother upon the completion of the head-to-head challenge. Stay tuned for their head-to-head challenge of the Big Wildcard Housemates, as well as more intense revelations of the housemates, only here on PBB Celebrity Collab Edition.
