Fans Worry About Shuvee Etrata’s Safety in PBB
SHUVEE ETRATA — The actress became the center of online discussions after clips from Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition showed her allegedly receiving punishment for mentioning details about the outside world. Shuvee, a Kapuso artist and social media personality, entered the PBB house alongside former child star Xyriel Manabat.
Netizens quickly expressed concern after learning that Shuvee was reportedly made to stay under the intense heat in the activity area as part of her penalty. Many pointed out the risk of heatstroke, especially with the high heat index in Metro Manila, and noted that Shuvee had just recovered from dysmenorrhea.
The situation drew strong reactions online, with some users criticizing the show for exposing a contestant to unsafe conditions. They questioned why the punishment had to involve extreme heat, suggesting that there were other, safer ways to enforce the rules. Others even called for mass reporting to the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB), describing Shuvee’s experience as “inhumane treatment.”
PBB host Bianca Gonzalez addressed the backlash, encouraging the public to voice criticisms respectfully instead of using profanity. However, many felt that the focus should have been on assuring the audience of Shuvee’s safety rather than defending the program. Some pointed out that a simple official statement would have helped end the speculation and ease public concern.
Netizens continued to express frustration, stressing that contestants’ health should be prioritized, especially given the current heat conditions. The criticism also touched on the importance of responsible management inside the PBB house.
As of now, Pinoy Big Brother management has not issued any official statement regarding Shuvee’s situation. Viewers and fans are still waiting for a clear explanation to ensure that housemates are treated fairly and safely inside the house.
