Princess Aliyah, Miguel Vergara grateful to fans, ready to take on work after 'PBB Collab 2.0'

From housemates inside Bahay ni Kuya to being rising stars in the outside world, Princess Aliyah and Miguel Vergara are still adjusting to the overwhelming support they have been receiving. 

In Nelson Canlas' report on "24 Oras" Monday, Miguel shared that life used to be simple inside Bahay ni Kuya. 

“Dun po, ang iniisip ko lang ano kakainin ko sa umaga, ganyan, ‘di ko po alam ‘yung nangyayari sa labas,” Miguel said. 

“Pero nung paglabas ko po, syempre super saya ko po. Nakita ko po na unexpected din po na may mga taong sumusuporta sa ‘kin." 

For her part, Princess shared that they were prepared for the possible work opportunities in the outside world while still inside the house. 

“Habang nasa bahay din po kami, ito po talaga ‘yung pinaka-excited kaming gawin sa labas, ‘yung magka work, projects, interviews,” she said.

“So sabi po talaga namin, walang mapapagod and ayun po, thankfully naman hindi pa ako pagod ngayon." 

Looking back, both stars believe that every challenge they encountered during their “Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition 2.0” journey was worth it, thanks to their sources of strength. 

For Miguel, it is his parents who give him strength. 

“Every time na nafu-frustrate ako, palagi ko pong iniisip ko ano ‘yung gagawin ng parents ko, kung ano gagawin ng dad ko sa situation na ‘to,” he said.

Meanwhile, Princess’ motivation is her good memories of life in her hometown of Ilocos. 

“Na-miss ko talaga ‘yung probinsya namin lalo na mag-swimming kasama ‘yung family ko, ‘yung kakain ng empanada tsaka ng miki. Naging motivation ko po siya talaga, lalo na nung natanghal na po kami as Ultimate 8," she said. 

Princess and Miguel were named 4th Big Placers in the recently concluded “Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition 2.0.”
