Ariani Nogueira How did a Brazilian model like you land an Eat Bulaga gig?
I’ve been here in the Philippines since last year and before I became a regular part of the show, I’ve been guesting already. I did T3 magazine’s cover last April and after that, I officially became a regular at around May of this year when TAPE discovered me.You started off in the “Itaktak Mo” portion. Do you even understand what that means?
No, in fact on my first day on the show, I was really having a hard time understanding anything. As it was, I was already so nervous because I knew I was on a very popular TV show aired nationwide. Then what made it worse was I couldn’t understand a thing anyone was saying. For a time I just kept on nodding at people because they kept on talking in Filipino to me! Is it true that this is your first TV stint?
Yes, it is. Most of my projects have been print ads and magazine photo shoots. My closest experience to a TV gig is the TV commercials I’ve done, but nothing like this! I’ve never done live TV. But it’s fun, I’m enjoying myself.

The pageant was won by Hil Hernández of Chile.The event was originally intended to be held in Santiago, Chile on November 15, but the Chilean organizers did not meet requirements and lacked the support needed to host the event. In the end, pageant owners Carousel Productions decided to hold the pageant in the Philippines, where all previous Miss Earth pageants had been held, despite having less than two months to prepare for the event.
More than 100 contestants were expected to compete, but only 82 eventually participated. Nevertheless, it was still the highest turn-out for the event.
On November 24 a number of delegates participated in the Philippine version of Deal or No Deal, acting as suitcase models during the game.[4] This followed an episode of the US game show, where 26 Miss USA 2006 contestant acted as suitcase models.
Nina Jose: Teen Edition (later to be known as Pinoy Big Brother: Teen Edition 1 because of a spin-off) began airing on April 23, 2006, three weeks after the end of the first Celebrity Edition. It ran for six weeks (42 days) and closely resembled the original show, unlike the relatively short Teen Big Brother, its British counterpart. The prizes included a condominium unit in Valenzuela City, a livelihood showcase, one million pesos, and an all-expense paid trip to any Philippine destination.
During the last few days of the above-mentioned first Celebrity Edition, auditions in Cebu City, Davao City, and Metro Manila were announced, and 30,000 teenagers answered the audition call. Of these, twelve housemates were selected: eight represented the Luzon area (all from the Metro Manila auditions) while four came from the Visayas (Cebu auditions) and Mindanao (Davao auditions).
Mariel Rodriguez took over as main host of the primetime edition, while former Celebrity Edition contestant Bianca Gonzalez hosted the UpLate edition of the show.
The theme song for this new edition was "Kabataang Pinoy" (Filipino Youth) by Itchyworms, which contained a familiar line from the original theme song "Pinoy Ako". The new theme song was first performed by the band during the first Celebrity Edition's finale on April 1, 2006.
For this edition, the house was redecorated with a pop art theme. The colours of the walls were changed, and even the living area had a mural with pop art depictions of Mao Zedong, Bruce Lee, and Marilyn Monroe, to name a few. The housemates were also provided with a foosball table and some trampolines.
Also, for one week, traffic lights and road signs were installed to teach the young housemates about helping their country in little ways by obeying traffic rules.
