Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition Plus

 

            Auditions for the second Teen Edition, later to be called Pinoy Big Brother: Teen Edition Plus were held as early as September 2007 and during the run of the second Celebrity Edition (alongside those of the seasons of PDA and the third regular season of Pinoy Big Brother). It was announced during the finale of the said Celebrity Edition on January 5, 2008 that this new Teen Edition will start sometime in March of the same year.

            Already it was announced in advertisements that thirty of the teens, who did their auditions in several cities in the Philippines, as well as in Dubai, Milan, and Madrid, were each given Dream Keys, but those who would receive them were told not to divulge them to others. The Dream Keys were used as a mark to show proof to the crew that they had passed their auditions and had answered their casting call. From the thirty Dream Key holders, fourteen were chosen to be official housemates.

            The season started on March 23, 2008 with a summer vacation theme. The reason for addition of the word Plus to the title were revealed: Luis Manzano’s return as host, an additional two housemates to the announced twelve, and a secret second "House."
