PBB welcomes housemate from Finland

MANILA, Philippines - Straight from Big Brother Finland, sexy Estonian-born Kattlin Laas (far right) will arrive to Manila today for the big swap of ABS-CBN’s Pinoy Big Brother Double Up.

Despite weather forecasts about a coming storm, Big Brother is pushing through with one of the biggest twists of the season where a housemate from Finland will trade places with a local housemate, Cathy Remperas (right), the Charming Babe of Bohol.

The 22-year-old Finnish housemate admitted to the Finnish Big Brother that she is not fluent in English. A food processing worker, Kattlin describes herself as a positive and cheerful person. Her weakness, meanwhile, is her short temper. She hates people with oversized ego, people who lie a lot, and people-pleasers.

Will Kattlin be able to relate to the Pinoy housemates? Will she be able to adjust to the culture and language? What foreign traits and culture will she introduce to the housemates and the Filipino audience?

Don’t miss Kattlin’s first days inside the PBB house today after Maalaala Mo Kaya and tomorrow, Nov. 1, after George & Cecil. See the highlights of the past week in PBB Weekend Primetime at 6 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays on Studio 23.
