MANILA, Philippines – It may not be too obvious to viewers, but Melisa “Melai” Cantiveros, Pinoy Big Brother (PBB) Double Up Big Winner, is also bothered by her poor grasp of the English language.
The 21-year-old undergrad student from General Santos City took up Bachelor of Education major in English at the Mindanao State University to perfect her skill. But a lot still needs to be done for her to speak the language fluently, she said.
She said she is nervous that her professors might get infuriated every time they see her on television bungling her English.
"Magaling talagang magturo ang mga teacher doon kaya nga ako nag-aral ng major in English para matuto ako. Kaya lang ngayon hindi pa ako natututo kaya kailangan ko ng matuto," Cantiveros said.
Cantiveros, the "Inday Kengkay of GenSan," has often been ridiculed by her inability to speak straight English.

 Now, for a reality check. Randy Dellosa, resident psychiatrist on the ABS-CBN reality show “Pinoy Big Brother,” expressed doubts if Teen champ Ejay Falcon could cope with the pressures of show business.
“He’s overwhelmed by the attention,” Dellosa told Inquirer Entertainment in a phone interview on Sunday. “Ejay and the other teen housemates should realize that their fame wasn’t borne out of hard work, but was just a result of their exposure on a reality show.” Dellosa noted that he’s uncertain whether Falcon has the skills for acting.
In contrast, Laurenti Dyogi, PBB director and Business Unit head, expressed confidence in Falcon. “If he’s serious and works hard, he can make it in show biz.” |
