Klarisse de Guzman cast in Bar Boys: After School
Singer and Pinoy Big Brother alum Klarisse de Guzman is officially joining the cast of Bar Boys: After School, the sequel to the 2017 hit film Bar Boys. As first reported by Cinema Bravo, Klarisse will take on the role of a devoted older sister who supports her sibling through law school. Her character is described as 'hilarious, optimistic, and a hopeless romantic'—a vital part of the study group's emotional core and the number one fan of law student Josh Zuniga, portrayed by Kian Cipriano. She reunites with fellow PBB Collab housemate Will Ashley, who is also part of the new cast. Returning actors Rocco Nacino, Carlo Aquino, and Enzo Pineda will reprise their original roles while new faces like Sassa Gurl, Therese Malvar, and Glaiza De Castro join the ensemble. Director Kip Oebanda teased the film's storyline in a March 2 post, revealing that the sequel centers on a law school barkada's 10-year reunion. The group reconnects after learning that a beloved professor is gravely ill and estranged from his family. As they step in to care for him, the friends are reminded of the deeper lessons life has to offer. Originally released in 2017, Bar Boys followed four friends navigating the trials of law school. Prior to joining the famous reality show, Klarisse made her mark in the music scene, finishing as runner-up in the first season of The Voice of the Philippines in 2013, and later winning Your Face Sounds Familiar Season 3 in 2021.

7 reasons why Will Ashley captured hearts as the Nation's Son
Will Ashley is one of the most beloved housemates in the "Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition," getting dubbed by viewers as the Nation's Son. With the moniker "Ang Mama's Dreambae ng Cavite," Will has always embraced his identity as a loving son to his Mommy Mindy. His earnestness captured the hearts of netizens, who have been calling him "anak" online. Here are seven reasons that made Will one of this season's standouts. 1. A mama's boy through and through Will is undeniably a mama's boy. Inside the house, he never hesitated to show his affection for his mom. When he and his duo, River Joseph, were nominated for the first eviction, Will grew emotional and wished he could hug his mom to make everything feel better. When house guest Donny Pangilinan surprised the housemates with gifts from their loved ones, Will received his favorite dish, Kinalamansiang Manok, lovingly prepared by his Mommy Mindy. The thoughtful gesture moved him to tears. But it was their heartfelt reunion during the final stretch of the season that truly captured the nation's heart. When Mommy Mindy entered the house and Will ran like a little boy to embrace her, it was a moment that tugged at the heartstrings of the viewers. there's something truly special about a man who isn't afraid to openly show his affection and love for his mom. thank you, mommy mindy! for raising will ashley sooo well. ???????????? — soda ?

In a pageant-inspired task called "Pinoy Big Boys," he and the other male housemates showcased their dance moves to impress the female housemates, who served as the judges. He also wowed the audience with his sleek and groovy dance moves—complete with a signature kaldag—during the talent portion, earning him the coveted "Best in Kaldag" award. When he returned to the outside world, Will did a couple of videos that showed his hidden talent, proving his title as this season's Kaldag King. WILLDAG IS BACK! Meanwhile, Ralph as a supportive duo: ???????????? WILL ON ALLOUTSUNDAYS#AOSBigCollab — cei (@rwdleon) July 6, 2025 3. 'Ma, ano ulam?' In PBB, Will truly showed his homebody side. The Sparkle star was often seen hanging around the kitchen—not to cook, but to eagerly watch his mowm Klarisse De Guzman prepare meals. In one episode featuring a scene where Vince Maristela was helping Klarisse in the kitchen, Will suddenly appeared out of nowhere and asked Klarisse, "Ano ulam?"—a moment that drew laughter from viewers. Te ano ulam te?? I missed you @Klarissedguzman — Will Ashley (@WillAshley05) July 9, 2025 4. Green tea-flavored drink obsession Not everyone's into green tea-flavored drinks, but Will? He was hooked—like it was his daily dose of happiness. While the other housemates ignore it, Will can always be found with a bottle, drinking it like it's water. Even in the outside world, it's Will and his green tea drink against the world. Salamat po isa talaga akong ganap na green…. Tea — Will Ashley (@WillAshley05) July 13, 2025 5. A walking meme Will's sense of humor is definitely a top-tier. During his time in the house, the Kapuso star delivered laugh-out-loud moments that turned him into a certified meme—thanks to his hilarious facial expressions and his unforgettable Sadness from "Inside Out" look, complete with eyeglasses and a blue-green wig. Will Ashley the living meme! MABUHAY SI WILL — skye♥ BBS RAWI (@skymyheart388) May 22, 2025 6. Bigas slayer Aside from being task slayer along with his final duo Ralph De Leon, Will is also a bigas slayer. He was often caught casually munching on raw, uncooked rice. No wonder he and Saing King, Ralph, are the perfect pair! Good Morning Will, Bogart and Mowm! ♥ Pinag uusapan nila yung rap battle about saing king tapos yung bata ko nagpapapak nanaman ng bigas! hahahaha.#WillAshley | Will Ashley — ???? (@willianalovebot) April 22, 2025 7. Will the egg borrower Will is the ultimate "egg borrower" inside Bahay ni Kuya, always on a mission to snag some itlog. With his love for eggs, Will often found himself borrowing some from his housemates—including Kira Balinger. After leaving the house, he was gifted a box of eggs and jokingly reassured everyone that he'd repay every single one he borrowed from the housemates. Mababayaran ko na lahat ng utang kong itlog ???? — Will Ashley (@WillAshley05) July 8, 2025 —MGP, GMA Integrated News

Did Klarisse De Guzman get upset at River Joseph for nominating her? Ex-housemate answers
Klarisse De Guzman and her duo Shuvee Etrata's (ShuKla) eviction from "Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition," was perhaps one of the most surprising moments of this season. The duo received the lowest percentage of votes to save—31.50%—falling just 0.17% short of AZ Martinez and River Joseph's (AzVer) 31.67%. ShuKla was nominated by AzVer for three points, with River citing their past misunderstandings and AZ pointing to Shuvee's comments about the outside world. Now that the season has ended, Klarisse addressed in a vlog with Vice Ganda whether she ever got upset with River for nominating her. "Hindi naman [ako na-off]. Kasi lahat naman kami meme, boboto," Klarisse said. Vice also asked Klarisse if she also got upset on River's reason for nominating their duo. "Siguro 'yung ano lang, parang nung nalaman ko, kasi may pointers kami. Isa din naman 'yung sinabi ko sa house, nung nag-house challenger kami, 'yung parang ako 'yung laging niyang ninominate," she answered. But all is well now between Klarisse and River, as the songstress said that the two of them have already talked. "Wala naman na 'yon," Klarisse said. The former PBB housemate also described River as a kind person when she first met him. "Mabait si River. Actually, siya 'yung una kong nasabi na ang bait naman nito. Guwapo na, mabait pa," Klarisse said of River. AZ and River were named fourth big placers of "Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition." The pair of Brent Manalo and Mika Salamanca (BreKa) is the Big Winner duo. Meanwhile, Will Ashley and his duo Ralph De Leon (RaWi) were named as the second big placers of PBB Collab. Charlie Fleming and Esnyr (ChaRes) were the third big placers. —Jade Veronique Yap/MGP, GMA Integrated News
