- Netizens divided over ‘Pinoy Big Brother’ forced eviction due to rape joke
- The men in the PBB house also tried to convince Kuya to let Dangalan stay, but to no avail
- Some social media users praised the show for clamping down on Dangalan’s rape jokes
A shocking announcement surprised viewers last Tuesday (June 4) as housemate Banjo Dangalan was force-evicted from the “PBB” house.
He first committed a violation and received a warning when the female housemates raised to Kuya that they are not comfortable with Banjo smelling their hair.
However, he made another violation after uttering rape jokes while inside the house. He violated the rule that prohibits the use of “words that are degrading to people and other race and lascivious language.”
Netizens aren’t quite sure how to react to the latest controversial forced eviction on ‘PBB Otso’ but most of them laud Kuya’s decision to evict the controversial housemate.

With what happened with Banjo in PBB, even when I had not watch the program, with merely seeing enough tweets, here’s my stand:
I agree that rape jokes are not acceptable in any context, this is absolute. Rape, just like any crime, isn’t to be taken lightly.— 박링유 (@lingyuofficial) June 5, 2019
