The girls already found out that Alex wants to be circumcised. Since it is not a must in Italian culture as it is in the Philippines, Alex doesn’t really have to do it. But Alex insists that, being Filipino, it is also his culture to go through with the circumcision. The girls discuss the process for a while and share their views on it. Some of the girls were raising questions about Josef’s masculinity. This was brought about by his skill in applying make-up and also his adeptness at hair curling. Valerie commented that he could be her stylist, and Josef simply laughed it off and joked around more. Jieriel even joked around about the true relationship of Josef and Robi (a loaded question, maybe, brought about by her qualms about the two). His mother ahed some light on this in an earlier interview. Being the offspring of parents very much involved in show business, Josef grew up well-acquainted with the props of the biz, which explains his comfort around them.
Some of the girls were also made to perform a baton twirling number. Linda and Beauty, skilled in the art to begin with, went first. Despite being nervous, both pulled it off quite nicely. Next in line were Nikki and Jieriel. Since they didn’t know how to twirl the baton as they should, the first two girls served as their mentors. Jieriel was taught by Linda while beauty coached Nikki. Beauty proved to be quite a strict teacher, but continued to prod Nikki on. She even offered a technique for her charge to better understand the sequence (repeat after me: hip, hop, hoop!).
It's late at night and the teens are still at it. UNO games, laughter and gags are abundant in the house. They have pseudo photo shoots and practiced their poses, putting an added use to the pictures Kuya had scattered in the house. They had fun making a mini-skit about Jieriel and the elusive Armando and had a mini-mystery about the happy pupu person. How will they deal with it if Alex does push through with his coming-of-age ritual? Will Kuya lay more “traps” for the BBFs? Is this bonding and camaraderie between the housemates for real, or reel? Stay tuned to Uber and Primetime later today and get the inside scoop by checking out the blog regularly!
