After the shocking eviction of the ShuKla duo—Shuvee Etrata and Klarisse de Guzman—on ‘Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Collab Edition’, fans are wondering: who will take over the kitchen duties now?
The eviction episode on Saturday, June 14, saw Shuvee and Klarisse narrowly lose the public vote with 31.50%, falling just .17% behind AZ Martinez and River Joseph’s AZVer duo, who earned 31.67%. Topping the vote was the love team of Dustin Yu and Bianca De Vera (DustBia), with 36.83%.
While fans were already reeling from the earlier departure of the MiLi tandem (Emilio Daez and Michael Sager), the sudden exit of ShuKla left many emotional. Klarisse, dubbed the “Kuwela Soul Diva of Antipolo,” was not just a housemate but also the unofficial chef of Kuya’s house.
Her resourcefulness in turning limited weekly budgets into flavorful meals made her an indispensable figure—especially during weeks when the housemates lost their challenges.
As Klarisse exited, she left with a laugh, joking, “Wala silang ulam sa loob!”—a line that instantly trended and had the audience and viewers in stitches.
Despite the loss of Klarisse’s kitchen prowess, fans of DustBia were quick to reassure everyone.
Oskee Recabar, a known supporter of the duo, posted, “FYI: Chef si Dustin at si Bianca. Masarap pa din ulam sa BNK.”
It’s a valid point—Dustin is a restaurateur, while Bianca once competed in Junior MasterChef Pinoy Edition back in 2011.
Still, Klarisse’s shoes won’t be easy to fill. Beyond her culinary talents, she was a calming and witty presence inside the house. Her heartfelt goodbye and light-hearted humor capped off an emotional eviction night that once again proved how unpredictable this season has become.
With just a few weeks left before the Big Night, fans now look forward to how the dynamics inside Kuya’s house will shift—and who will rise to the challenge, both in the kitchen and beyond.
