Many were left wanting more from 2-in-1 housemates Joli Alferez and Gwen Montano’s stay in the “<a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/pbbgen112024" target="_blank">Pinoy Big Brother Gen 11</a>” house. Fans feel like they’d love to get to know the Smile Darling ng Camarines Sur and the Brave Bromantiko ng Cavite even better. Well, fret no more, because Kapamilya Chat has found a way for you to get up close and personal with Joli and Gwen by asking them about their most memorable and random ‘firsts’ in a fun challenge.Prepare to feel the butterflies as you see how in sync their thoughts and answers are!First up, they were asked about the first series they ever got hooked on. For Joli, it was “Grey’s Anatomy,” which she finds the series very substantial and informative, especially since she’s in the medical field as a dentist. Gwen, on the other hand, felt a bit shy about his answer, which he thought seemed childish compared to Joli’s. His pick? A Batman series he loved as a kid—and he’s still a big Batman fan to this day! But together, these two special friends absolutely love watching horror flicks. They’re the type to sit right in the front row of the cinema when it comes to a good scare.Since they’re practically together 24/7, Joli and Gwen also have the same taste in music. The first song on their shared playlist? “Always” by Daniel Caesar, which they dedicate to each other. So romantic, these two!Even when it comes to their first celebrity crushes, it seems like they still vibe with each other&#x27;s qualities. Joli shared that her first celebrity crush was Vhong Navarro because he’s a great dancer. But as she matured, she found herself more drawn to moreno men, so she started crushing on Piolo Pascual. Meanwhile, Gwen once had a crush on Cristine Reyes, who happens to have a beauty quite similar to Joli&#x27;s.When asked about the first housemate they got close to, Joli recalls that she first bonded with Dingdong Bahan and Patrick Ramirez, aka DongPat, as well as the group’s chef, Brx Ruiz. Meanwhile, Gwen&#x27;s first conversation with Jarren Garcia, but the very first housemate he felt truly close to and could totally relate to in terms of personality and life was Dylan Yturralde.They also shared their morning routine inside Kuya’s house: after waking up, the housemates would hug each other to say good morning, then head off to brush their teeth, followed by cooking breakfast, which is usually just eggs—so the big decision every morning is choosing between sunny-side-up or scrambled eggs.What was the first expensive thing they were able to buy with their first salary? Joli&#x27;s eyes lit up as she shared that she invested in skincare right away, with her first purchase being a jade roller. Meanwhile, for Gwen, it was an electric guitar.Not all heartbreaks are about romantic love. For Joli, her first heartbreak was when her parents separated—she didn’t want to be away from her father, as she was a daddy’s girl. Gwen&#x27;s first heartbreak was also about a parent, when his mom passed away. At first, he couldn’t accept it as reality, and it felt like his whole world collapsed.Check out the video and have a blast getting to know the ‘kilig’ duo, Joli and Gwen!Find out the latest happenings inside Kuya&#x27;s iconic house in &quot;<a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/pbbgen112024" target="_blank">Pinoy Big Brother Gen 11</a>,&quot; airing Mondays to Fridays at 10:15 PM on Kapamilya Channel, Kapamilya Online Live, A2Z, TV5, and <a href="https://app.iwanttfc.com/Mkr3OdLk6ab" target="_blank">iWantTFC</a>.PBB also airs every Saturday at 8:30 PM and Sunday at 8:30 PM on <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-news/everything-you-need-to-know-about-kapamilya-channel-12340" target="_blank">Kapamilya Channel</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/abscbnentertainment" target="_blank">Kapamilya Online Live</a>, A2Z, <a href="https://app.iwanttfc.com/Mkr3OdLk6ab" target="_blank">iWantTFC</a>, and 9:30 PM on TV5.
