KEANNA REEVES:Too good to be true
For Pinoy Big Brother celebrity housemate Keanna Reeves, winning the top spot in the reality TV show last Saturday was “too good to be true.”
“Now I know what too good to be true means,” said the former bold starlet, who exposed an alleged sex scandal in the Senate in 2004.
Keanna, 36, bested three other housemates after garnering 571,607 votes or 44.2 percent of total votes received from viewers of the top-rating show aired over ABS-CBN.
She won P1 million, a condominium unit, an appliance showcase, and computers.
“This is what I’ve been waiting for,” Keanna said, referring to showbiz career opportunities that await every PBB housemate, especially the big winner.
“I’m looking forward to more work now,” she said “Becoming a housemate was the best decision I have made in my whole life.”
Keanna had auditioned to become a housemate in Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Edition with the help of Boy Abunda, who now runs her career.
“I thought that becoming a housemate would boost my career in showbiz,” she admitted. “I wanted the public to know the real me.”
Shortly after the Senate sex scandal, Keanna was cast in two forgettable movies—the sexy comedy Shut up…I-memorize Mo Na Lang Yan, with Pacquito Diaz, and a bold movie that was never finished.
She drifted to night club acts and was about to go to Japan as a performer last January when Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Edition opened for auditions.
