Since she has been in the local entertainment scene for nearly two decades and we’ve witnessed her grow both as an individual and an actress right before our eyes, Xyriel Manabat has gone on to become one of the most well-loved Gen Z stars of her generation.

Thus, her followers were undeniably delighted when she joined “Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Collab Edition,” which allowed her to show different facets of her that we probably hadn’t seen yet whenever she is in front of the camera. However, her stay inside Bahay ni Kuya was short-lived when she got evicted together with Vince Maristela during the 5th eviction night last March 31 after she garnered the lowest percentage of votes to save among the Kapamilya housemates, having only 4.06% of the total votes.

Her nearly two-month stint may not have been enough for us to truly get to know her, but we've got you covered — we had the “Golden Anaktres ng Rizal” take on the “Random Questions Challenge.'"

In this age when having at least a cellphone is definitely a must, Xyriel revealed that she also can’t leave the house without her perfume and lip gloss.

If she’s given the chance to time travel, she said that she will definitely go back to the time when she was very young and both her maternal and paternal grandparents were still alive since she considers those times as one of her best core memories. However, if the question refers to a place she’s been dreaming to set her foot in, it’s none other than Switzerland for her.

She may be known as fierce and gregarious inside the house, but not a lot of people perhaps know that she’s also adventurous. And we’re able to discover it when she shared the three items that can be found on her bucket list, namely, to try skydiving, to travel to Alaska perhaps to catch sight of the Northern Lights, and to experience riding a hot air balloon.

However, we also figured out that the Kapamilya actress does not seem to be the type who likes to go out a lot when she said that she would rather order food online than dine out because she tends to get too lazy to go out. And the food that she can eat everyday without getting umay of it? Well, she apparently has a sweet tooth since it’s none other than bingsu, a milk-based Korean shaved ice dessert, for her.

When it comes to love languages, Xyriel imparted that her “receiving” are words of affirmation and quality time, while her methods of expressing her affection are giving gifts and acts of service. And this is supported by her three wishes that she hopes to be granted—which are still about her loved ones—namely, to have a lot of money, to bring her family to different countries, and to build a house for each member of their family.

Many can perhaps relate to her as she revealed the things she does to relax, which are to eat, to sleep, and to drink water.

While others think of her as already successful for having a prolific showbiz career and scoring several recognitions, but for Xyriel, the real meaning of success is peace and stability. She explained, “Sumakses ka kapag talagang feeling mo may peace of mind ka, stable ka sa buhay. ‘Yong financially stable and mentally stable. Saka napro-provide ko ‘yong wants ng family ko and ng sarili ko.”

And lastly, if there’s a celebrity that she wishes to be BFFs with, she said that it’s going to be her Tita Coney, (veteran actress Coney Reyes). According to her, she feels that she can learn a lot from her through her words of wisdom, saying, “Parang sobrang bait kong tao kapag naging best friend ko si Tita Coney. Parang grabe ‘yong influence niya sa buhay ko, gano’n.”
