Pinoy Big Brother: Teen Clash 2010

Pinoy Big Brother: Teen Clash 2010 is the third teen edition of Pinoy Big Brother. It began airing on the night of April 10, 2010 (PHT). This is the first Teen Edition to be held after a regular season instead of a Celebrity Edition due to the third regular season ending several weeks before the middle of March, the traditional time for the start of the summer season in the Philippines when Teen Editions are held. Toni Gonzaga, Bianca Gonzales and Mariel Rodriguez will reprise their roles as hosts of the show.

There were two sets of auditions for this edition. The first was held simultaneously with those of the third regular season from March to May 2009. As these auditions were held a year in advance, the age limit was lowered to 14-17, since they would be within the correct age limit of 15-18 once the edition starts. A second set of auditions was held in March 2010, this time with an advanced registration through SMS, the age limit for auditioning was 15-18. A total of around 50,000 auditioned, from which 16 were chosen to compete in the new Edition.

There are many reasons for the use of the word Clash in the title. Primarily, the use of the Two House concept last seen in Pinoy Big Brother: Double Up (the third regular season) is again being used.

Twins No More

JP was not granted his indefinite leave at work as a call center agent which forced him to leave the PBB house leaving his twin brother JM to do the task given by Big Brother to them and twin brothers Kenny and Toffi.

Unfortunately, Princess discovered that Kenny had a twin when she unknowingly entered the shower room which was declared restricted.

This saddened a lot of viewers who were expecting the twins to stay in the house longer.

For the next twist, Kuya informed Tom and Melissa that there are two PBB houses and that they were going to switch places.

PBB Double Up is shown weekdays every pm right after.

Ten New Housemates Introduced

Pinoy Big Brother Double Up added ten (10) new housemates.

2. Cathy Remperas, 22 ang Charming Babe ng Bohol

10. Rica Paras, 26 aka Math Goddess ng Bacolod

The new housemates were divided into the two PBB Houses and they were given special tasks.

Jimson will help Kathleen (La Señora ng Espana, wife of Jimson) and Patrick (Charming Banker ng Baguio) pretend to be married, while Rob (Ladies Man ng Austria) and Rica who is a transgender will pretend to have a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.

Why Double Up?

It was explained in the Magical Reveal that Pinoy Big Brother has two houses and the housemates have been separated into two groups. The housemates are not aware that there are two houses. PBB also has two pair of identical twins (JP/JM and Toffi/Kenny) who has been tasked by Kuya to live in separate PBB house and they should not reveal that they have a twin brother because they will be switched later. They should also keep it a secret that there are two PBB houses.
