Metro x Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Collab Edition: Esnyr

Article (news)

Described as the life of the party, Esnyr, “Ang Son-sational viral Beshie ng Davao del Sur,” presented a new version of himself during his Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition journey. Detached from the shadows of Precious, Bogart, Charlotte, and Andrei—the characters he portrayed in his well-loved High School online series—he became a compassionate figure beneath his jovial facade.Before entering Big Brother’s house, Esnyr had already established himself as a leading online personality. His high school vlogs and comedic skits have each garnered millions of views, paving the way to an acting career. He starred alongside Belle Mariano and Donny Pangilinan in the hit series How to Spot a Red Flag and in the buzzworthy movie Balota with Marian Rivera. Carving a linear path in the showbiz scene, Esnyr shared the rationale and motivation behind his PBB audition.“Siguro po nu’ng nalaman ko na may PBB: Celebrity Collab, I grabbed po talaga ‘tong opportunity na ‘to kasi, aside from the experience, fan na fan po talaga ako ng PBB ever since. Gusto ko po sumali kasi, of course, s&#x27;yempre, para tulungan ‘yung pamilya ko, and gusto ko ipakilala sa buong mundo ‘yung totoong Esnyr behind my characters—behind Precious, Bogart, and Balong.”<div> </div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1753835471306metro exclusive pbb celeb collab esnyr embed 1.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/>Esnyr, as photographed by Dix Perez</div><div> </div>While the majority of the viewers got a deeper look at these artists inside Big Brother&#x27;s house, there were still moments that weren&#x27;t broadcast, such as the full scope of challenges the housemates endured and conquered during their stay. According to Esnyr, the biggest challenge for him was the time he needed to share information about his private life, as there’s a deeper layer behind his optimistic personality online. And just like anyone, he’s also vulnerable to struggles, especially when building his life and career. “The biggest challenge na na-face ko was when I spoke my truth about sa family ko. Kasi, ‘yun po ‘yung hindi talaga alam ng mga tao sa’kin. ‘Yung pinagdaanan ko habang nagko-content creator ako. Kaya it was a tough decision to share. Pero at the same time, inisip ko ‘yung mga breadwinners na kagaya ko at ‘yung mga taong same sa situation ko na walang bumoboses sakanila. Kaya ayun, gusto ko lang din talaga na i-share siya sa bigger platform—sa national TV, na they are not alone at sana may napulot sila do’n. Sana may napulot na lesson. And sana na voice-out ko ‘yung mga boses na gusto talaga nila iparating,” Esnyr opened up. On a lighter note, Esnyr also had a rewarding moment inside Big Brother’s house—notably bringing the name of the pride community to the Big Night. “Siguro rewarding moment was finally meron ng magre-represent ng LGBTQIA+ sa Big 4. ‘Yun po talaga ‘yung pinaka-goal ko ever since. Kasi wala po ako masyadong kilala na Big 4 na kagaya ng community ko kaya nu’ng natanggal na si Ate Klang, sobrang nalungkot po talaga ako, kasi ako na lang ‘yung bakla do’n,” Esnyr joyfully narrated. Esnyr has always been vocal about his purpose for entering the home of this reality show. Winning third place is no easy feat; it not only sparks opportunities for him but also for the aspiring rainbow community, whose members also aim for the stars. He emphasized, “Kaya sobrang rewarding po na kami ‘yung pinaka unang napabilang sa Big 4, at na i-represent ko po talaga ‘yung community ko.”Beyond standing for the colored arch, Esnyr additionally dedicates his win to the breadwinners. He told Metro.Style, “At the same time, ‘yung mga taga probinsya na mga breadwinners—lahat-lahat na po ng gusto kong i-representa. Kaya ayun po talaga ‘yung isa sa mga pinaka masasabi ko na achievement ko sa loob ng Bahay—na kinaya ko siya at nag tagal ako doon ng how many days na akala ko talaga matatanggal po ako agad-agad. Pero, laban! Mabuhay ang mga bakla.”<div> </div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1753991210689metro exclusive pbb celeb collab esnyr embed 2 (1).jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/> On Esnyr: Bubble crop top and wide-leg trousers both by Urban Revivo</div><div> </div>When asked about the person he looked up to the most inside the house, Esnyr answered without any hesitation, “Ate Klang.” Proceeding to explain why, he shared, “Kasi s&#x27;yempre siya ‘yung other half ko. Grabe ‘di ko rin ma-imagine ‘yung stay ko du’n if wala si Ate Klang. Hindi ko alam kung paano ako makakapag-adjust. Para akong butterfly na nakalabas talaga sa cocoon nu’ng nandyan si Ate Klang.” Esnyr is a goal-oriented person; nonetheless, that doesn’t mean he isn&#x27;t flexible and willing to learn. Among the lessons he received from Kuya, one that truly stood out to him was the idea of growing as a human being. He detailed, “Sobrang daming lessons ang natutunan ko po sa Bahay. Number one is growth talaga. Lumalabas ‘yung growth ‘pag uncomfortable ka sa mga things. For example, ‘yung mga bagay na nakakaiyak, sobrang hirap, pero ‘di namin namamalayan na may growth do’n.” Esnyr didn’t look at PBB as a competition. Rather than seeing the housemates as rivals, he developed a solid bond and friendship with them. “The value of friendship and family,“ he added, talking about what PBB taught him. “Kasi sa loob ng Bahay mas na-appreciate ko na hindi competition masyado ‘yung tingin namin sa isa’t-isa. May mga times na kailangan namin maglaban-laban, pero most of the time po talaga ‘yung nangingibabaw sa’kin was ‘yung pagsasamahan namin doon sa loob ng Bahay.” Now that Esnyr is back in the outside world, he’s ready to conquer harder challenges than the ones Big Brother gave him. Esnyr&#x27;s new version is stronger and fearless, yet he still stays grounded and warm-hearted in everything he does, illuminating his path to his rightful place in the entertainment industry. Grateful and hopeful, Esnyr mused, “From housemate to classmate ulit. Super excited po ako kasi maraming big things ahead. At siyempre, thankful po talaga ako sa mga nagsu-support sa’kin. At dala-dala ko sila always. Sobrang saya ko na itong PBB, nag-open talaga siya ng doors and opportunities sa’kin. Of course, nandyan pa rin ang series ko pero ngayon with the housemates na—abangan natin ‘yan. Tapos ayun po, movies and seryes. Sobrang happy ko sa mga opportunities na nakuha ko sa PBB. Sana abangan ako ng mga tao.”<div> </div><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1753836094259metro exclusive pbb celeb collab will ashley embed 2.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div style="text-align:center"> </div>Photography by Dix PerezMetro head: Christina LopezSittings editors: Geolette Esguerra, Kate Paras-Santiago, Randz Manucom, and Grace Libero-CruzCreative director: Chookie CruzStylist: Edlene Cabral, assisted by Bullet ReyesMakeup artist/hairstylist: Jake Galvez and Mycke ArcanoFashion associate: Carla BuyoEditorial assistants: Iya Baring and Krystel MatiasInterviewer: Grace DiezVideo producers: Giselle Interior and Tricia MatiasVideographer: Charisse Tinio&#x27;s NicePrint Photo teamArt director: Alfred AmadoShoot assistants: Danni Lagdameo, Mariana Xerez-Burgos, Sophia Ancheta, and Katrice CuasonSpecial thanks to Pinoy Big Brother, Marcus Vinuya, Patch Bungubung, Charina Fernandez, Pia Laurel, Thess Gubi, and Star Magic
