Bianca De Vera has expressed her openness to working alongside fellow ‘Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition’ housemates Will Ashley and Dustin Yu in one project, should the opportunity come.
In Aubrey Carampel’s ’24 Oras’ report on Wednesday, the Sassy Unica Hija ng Taguig said she is ready for the challenge.
“If the project comes, then I think ako, OK ako. Sana sila OK,” Bianca said.
Both Will and Dustin have also shared the same sentiment.
“Ako, open naman talaga ako, as long as talagang maganda ’yung project. Of course, ’yung mga kasama ko— with Bianca, kung sinu man mga housemates—super magagaling na aktor ’yan. Sigurado marami akong matututunan,” Will explained.
Currently, Bianca and Dustin—dubbed “DustBia”—are set to star in a music video shot in Rizal, while Bianca and Will—known as “WillCa”—also have an upcoming project together.
These two pairings are among the strongest fan ships born from ‘PBB: Celebrity Collab Edition’, which concluded on July 5 with Brent Manalo and Mika Salamanca being named the first-ever Big Winner duo.
Earlier this month, the housemates reunited for ‘The Big ColLove’ concert, celebrating the connections built inside the house.
Despite highly publicized fallouts of established loveteams and increasing criticism of the industry’s “toxic” loveteam culture, fans still found themselves swooning over this season’s cross-network tandems. From the slow-burn pairing of AZ Martinez and Ralph De Leon to the friends-to-lovers arc of big winners Brent and Mika, PBB Collab offered a ship for almost every preference.
But the most talked-about ships of the season revolve around one woman: Bianca De Vera.
“WillCa” was an early favorite, as Bianca and Will previously starred together in Unbreak My Heart. Their “missed connection” story resonated with viewers, making them one of the season’s most bankable pairs. Later, Bianca and Dustin developed a mutual understanding, forming “DustBia”—a Kapamilya-Kapuso tandem that nearly reached the “Big 4.”
While Ashley, De Vera, and Yu were not hailed as winners, their post-PBB careers are under close watch. Interviews continue to place them on the hot seat with questions about real-life romances, upcoming projects, and even their still-unresolved connections inside the house.
A difference in reel and real partnerships is nothing new in Philippine showbiz, where loveteams often thrive on-screen even without off-screen romance. What makes PBB Collab unique, however, is the absence of privacy. For three months, Ashley, De Vera, and Yu lived under constant scrutiny, with their emotions and relationships playing out unfiltered before the public.
