Six housemates nominated for eviction in the PBB House

After Delio’s eviction last Saturday, six "Pinoy Big Brother" (PBB) Double Up contestants are nominated for eviction for this week. These include 2 housemates from House A and 4 from House B.

In House A, Yuri was nominated for eviction (5 votes) because of sleeping most of the time while Tom was also nominated for eviction (6 votes) because his housemates feel he is "too bossy and opinionated."

In House B, Tibo and Paul Jake received the most number of eviction nominations (5 votes) because their housemates felt that they miss their loved ones too much. Jason and Carol was also nominated with 3 votes apiece because he reportedly violated too many of the house rules and she is said to be unable to cope with the stress inside the PBB House.

Meanwhile, Cathy has returned to the Philippines from the Big Swap program with Big Brother Finland.

Those nominated for eviction can be saved by viewers who text in their votes via 2311 for Globe, TM, Sun Cellular, and Bayan Wireless users; and 231 for Smart and Talk n' Text subscribers. Audiences can also vote online at www.pinoybigbrother.com/vote.

ABS-CBN's 'Bro, Ikaw ang Star ng Pasko' Station ID

The Kapamilya station officially kicked off the Christmas season with its launching of “Bro, Ikaw ang Star ng Pasko” Christmas station ID.

ABS-CBN launched its Christmas station ID (SID) which was put together by its Creative Communications Management (CCM) group. This year’s station ID features not only the network’s stars and broadcasters, but ordinary people from different sectors as well. It was participated by more than 300 talents pooled together for the project.

The station ID this year is simpler in comparison to previous years as it encourages Filipinos to bounce back after the calamities, and reminds the public that “goodness shines the brightest in the darkest hours.”

Below is the Kapamilya station ID from YouTube:
