Bianca De Vera, AZ Martinez, Shuvee Etrata get emotional after nominations from close friends
The housemates of "Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition" wrestled with feelings of hurt and guilt after the first face-to-face nominations of the season. On Tuesday's episode, Bianca De Vera told her duo Dustin Yu that she expected the nominations from the other housemates, but not from her close friend Mika Salamanca. "Kaya kong lumaban para sa kanya, kaya ko siyang protektahan hanggang sa makakaya ko. It hurts to see we're not on the same page," she said. Mika and her duo, Brent Manalo, tried to talk to Bianca but she avoided them. When they tried again, she said she needed time. Bianca and Mika later spoke and hugged it out. AZ Martinez also opened up to her duo, River Joseph. She said the nominations from Dustin, Ralph De Leon, and Will Ashley were something that she did not see coming. Will later talked to her and told her to blame him for the nomination, instead of his duo and her close friend, Ralph. Ralph, meanwhile, felt guilty for breaking AZ's trust as her confidant inside the house. Meanwhile, AZ's close friend, Shuvee Etrata, also got emotional after she and Klarisse De Guzman were nominated by AZ and River over her previous violation of talking about the outside world. She and AZ later got to sit down and hash it out together. Shuvee admitted that she was hurt over AZ's nomination, as she was already punished for the violation. AZ said she does not know how to explain it, but she said she did not want to hurt Shuvee and lose their friendship. DusBi (Dustin and Bianca), AzVer (AZ and River), and ShuKla (Shuvee and Klarisse) were the three nominated duos this week. Dustin and Bianca received 13 nomination points, while AZ and River got seven points. Shuvee and Klarisse got three points.
