Kapuso leading man David Licauco shared with his followers on Instagram that he once auditioned to be a housemate on the hit Kapamilya reality program, Pinoy Big Brother. The Maria Clara at Ibarra actor recalled this memory after he became a houseguest for the PBB Celebrity Collab Edition.

The Kapuso actor remembered how he lined up back in 2015 to be part of the program but it seemed like fate had something else for him.
“Crazy to think I once lined up for PBB auditions in 2015… and years later, I got to be a houseguest,” he wrote.
Despite being only there for several days, David expressed how different it was inside the PBB house. For him, there was “magic” that he felt during his short stay as he claimed that he learned a lot about himself.
“It was different from what I imagined—may magic talaga sa loob ng Bahay ni Kuya. I may have been quiet, but I learned a lot about myself. Truth is, no one really knows what it’s like inside unless you’ve lived it,” he added.
He expressed his gratitude towards everyone who made his stay inside the PBB house memorable–– from Klarisse de Guzman’s cooking to the heartfelt conversations he had with the housemates.
“To everyone who supported, thank you. (Sa mga naboringan sakin, sorry na po! 😅)
"And to the housemates—thank you for the warm welcome, solid convos, and syempre, the best food: Ate Klang’s ulam, Ralph’s rice, and Esnyr’s ice cream,” he ended.
