Emilio Daez reflected on the most surprising thing that he experienced when he became a housemate of Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition this year. In an interview with MJ Felipe on TFC&#x27;s BRGY, the actor shared that what surprised him the most was how quickly the housemates bonded and formed genuine connections despite being complete strangers. &quot;One thing that really struck me was how all of us really came together and really got along with each other. Kasi for me the concept of us going into a house with 19 other people you don&#x27;t know tapos you&#x27;re gonna live there parang to me, it was so shocking to me na walang nag-clash talaga, I mean of course my clashing na nangyari and at the end of the day it was all love,&quot; he remarked.Emilio also shared that their bond continued even after leaving the PBB house. He relayed that the <a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/pinoy-big-brother-collab">PBB: Celebrity Collab Edition</a> housemates still make time to see each other and catch up whenever possible.&quot;Lahat kami nagkwe-kwentuhan pa rin, lahat kami nagkikita pa rin, walang bad blood kahit kanino so I think for me that was one of the most unexpected things na even if you&#x27;re scared to reach out to people or meet people parang don&#x27;t be so scared just take the leap because some of the most unexpected things will come and it might be the biggest blessing of your life,&quot; he stated.He went on to express his gratitude as he noted that the group&#x27;s hopes of landing projects after PBB have now become a reality.&quot;Recently we&#x27;ve been all booked and busy and we&#x27;ve been talking about that all the time in the house na parang sana pagkatapos PBB lahat tayo magka-project, lahat tayo magka-endorsement or what not, and luckily for us, I see it on social media na lahat talaga halos may project, lahat talaga may ginagawa, lahat kami nasa MMFF (Metro Manila Film Festival),&quot; he relayed.<div><iframe width="966" height="543" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/tJLuqgJtxuI" title="Emilio Daez Is Moving Up From PBB to Bigger Dreams | Dec. 22, 2025 | EP 45" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div>Emilio got evicted from the PBB house last April. Following his exit from the house, the actor took to social media to share a reflection of his journey as a housemate.&quot;This is just the beginning. I&#x27;m stepping into what&#x27;s next with even more heart, more fire, and more love for what I do. The dream continues and I&#x27;m ready for it,&quot; he posted on Instagram back in April.He added: &quot;I entered the house with a smile on my face, excited and hopeful for whatever was ahead. Today, I walk out with that same smile, carrying memories, lessons, and friendships that I’ll hold onto for the rest of my life. I&#x27;m thankful for every challenge, every laugh, and every quiet moment that helped me grow along the way.&quot;The actor also highlighted that his stint on PBB is one of the highlights of his career.“A year ago, I made the decision to leave the corporate world and take a chance on the life I’ve always dreamed of. It wasn’t the easiest choice, but I know it was the right one. Pursuing my passion has brought me to places I never could have imagined and walking into the PBB house was one of those moments I’ll always be grateful for,&quot; he said.
