Do you remember former Pinoy Big Brother 737 Teen Edition housemate Franco Rodriguez? He now goes by the name Tomas of P-pop idol group Alamat. In an exclusive interview with PUSH after the in-person press conference for PPOPCON 2022, Tomas shared that he continued his studies after joining the ABS-CBN reality show Pinoy Big Brother 737 in 2015. He emerged as the teen edition’s third big placer. “After po kasi ng PBB, nag-aral ulit ako. Tapos feeling ko ‘yung PBB, isa siya sa stepping stone or baka talagang pina-experience sa’kin ni tadhana kung paano sa group makisama, paano solusyunan ‘yung mga problema, challenges. Ayun. Kasi baka hinanda niya ako para dito sa boyband, which is kami lang ‘yung magkakasama. Kami lang ‘yung magsosolusyon sa mga sarili naming problema, challenges. Wala kaming ibang kasama kundi kami-kami kasi malayo ‘yung family namin, eh. Kasi lahat sila, galing sila sa ibang [provinces]. Kami lahat. Kaya ‘dun talaga kami lumaki. Kaya ayun, wala kaming ibang makukuhanan ng suporta kundi kami-kami lang din,” he began.

Tomas of Alamat shares how his career evolved from joining ‘Pinoy Big Brother’ to debuting as part of a Pinoy pop idol group.
