Will Ashley, Charlie Fleming, Esnyr recreate Mika Salamanca's viral 'Sino Nga Ba Siya' clip
After Mika Salamanca emerged as the first Kapuso big winner of "Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition," old videos from her childhood resurfaced on social media and offered a nostalgic glimpse into the Mika we know today.
Among those videos that are going viral is a hilarious clip of a young Mika singing to Sarah Geronimo's "Sino Nga Ba Siya." Clad in her PE uniform, the Sparkle star is seen running before accidentally tripping and falling flat on the ground. Undeterred, she bursts into tears—then starts singing the song, creating a moment that's equal parts funny and endearing.
With the clip going viral, netizens have jumped on the trend—sharing their own hilarious takes using the audio. Even Mika's fellow housemates Charlie Fleming, Will Ashley, and Esnyr didn't miss out on the fun, joining in with their own playful renditions.
On TikTok, Charlie joined the trend with her own spin—filming her version along the shores of Boracay. After running playfully through the sand, she collapsed beneath a coconut tree by the water, perfectly lip-syncing to Mika's now-iconic audio.
"Pasado na po bah?" Charlie wrote in the caption and tagged Mika.
Her entry earned an applaud by Mika herself, who wrote: "Ay at talagang sumali ka pa. 10/10 sa 'kin 'yan kase upgraded sa white sand," in the comment section.
Meanwhile, Will took on the trend in a parking lot—sprinting across the pavement and even throwing himself to the ground as he dramatically dubbed Mika's lines.
"Grabe," Will said in the caption, tagging Mika.
As for Esnyr, he put his signature twist on the trend—bringing his trademark humor and energy, with fellow housemate Bianca De Vera making a fun cameo in the video.
The short skit begins with Bianca and Esnyr laughing inside a moving car. In a playful moment, Bianca pushes Esnyr to the side, prompting him to yell "Aray!" before breaking into an impromptu a cappella version of the song. He then pans the camera to Bianca, who delivers her own hilarious rendition, adding to the fun.
And of course, Mika herself joined in on the fun—sharing a fresh take on the viral video that started it all.
In the video she shared, Mika just walked out from an elevator and squatted on the floor as she sang the song in acapella. As the song reached its climax, Mika stood up and belted the song's chorus showing her pure, raw and unadulterated voice.
"'Wag n'yo na akong i-tag, salamat. Chereng!" Mika wrote in the caption.
Mika and her duo Brent Manalo won "Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition."
As she returned to the outside world, Mika said that she wants to pursue music.
She currently appears in "Encantadia Chronicles: Sang'gre" as Anaca.
