A New Star in the House: Eliza Borromeo
The ongoing season of "Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Collab Edition 2.0" has already captured the attention of many viewers, not just for the entertainment it provides but also for the compelling stories shared by its housemates. Among them is Eliza Borromeo, a rising star under Star Magic, whose journey and personality have quickly made her a favorite.
Eliza's charm and beauty are undeniable, but what truly sets her apart is the story she shared during one of her heartfelt conversations with Krystal Mejes. She opened up about her special friendship with Miguel Vergara, her co-star in the Kapamilya series "What Lies Beneath." This revelation caught the attention of the other female housemates, who began teasing her, especially when Big Brother paired them together for the "Kalo-Clown Halloween Task."
During this challenge, Eliza and Miguel faced their fears as they encountered a spooky and mischievous visitor. The audience witnessed their courage and connection, which only added to the intrigue surrounding their relationship.
As the show progresses, fans are eager to see how Eliza's friendship with Miguel will develop inside the house. But beyond that, there's a growing interest in getting to know Eliza better. Here's a closer look at the young actress who is making waves in the entertainment industry.
Who Is Eliza Borromeo?
Born as Angelica Rose S. Santos, Eliza is known as the "Determinadong Dilag ng Cavite," the third of four siblings. She turned 18 last July and graduated from senior high school at the Holy Rosary Academy of Las Piñas City with high honors, specializing in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM).
Her journey into showbiz began when comedian-actor Eric Nicolas discovered her at a mall. Shortly after, she attended a go-see where she met her current Star Magic manager, Luz Bagalacsa. Under her guidance, Eliza participated in singing, acting, and dancing workshops, further honing her skills.
Eliza's big break came when she auditioned for the Kapamilya teleserye "What Lies Beneath." She successfully landed the role of young Alice Quintana, portrayed by Janella Salvador as an adult. This marked her acting debut and first-ever project in the entertainment industry.
Achievements and Personal Life
While Eliza considers being a consistent honor student as her biggest achievement outside showbiz, she sees landing her first television role as her greatest accomplishment as a budding actress. Her dedication and hard work have not gone unnoticed.
Growing up, Eliza spent more time with her mother, as her father was often away, working as a waiter on a cruise ship. This close bond with her mother has made her a self-proclaimed "mama’s girl." Her mom was even more excited about her decision to pursue a career in the arts.
Eliza's beauty and intelligence have not gone unnoticed either. She was often chosen as the class muse throughout her school years. Her majestic presence was showcased during her appearances at the Star Magical Prom and Star Magical Christmas in 2024.
Personal Interests and Hobbies
Despite her busy schedule, Eliza enjoys reading books and e-books focused on healing and self-improvement. She is also a proud member of the ARMY, the global fandom of the Korean pop group BTS. Beyond just listening to their songs or watching music videos, Eliza collects albums and photocards, showing her deep passion for the group.
She also enjoys watching makeup tutorial vlogs, as she wants to learn how to do her own makeup. This curiosity and eagerness to learn reflect her well-rounded personality.

As a newcomer to the industry, Eliza believes that joining "PBB Collab 2.0" could be her big break. Her journey in the house is filled with potential, and fans are eager to see what lies ahead for her.
