“Pinoy Big Brother: Gen 11” Big Winner Sofia “Fyang” Smith is under fire online after making a bold statement about her batch being “unbeatable.” In a viral video, Smith confidently said that no future PBB season could top theirs, calling Gen 11 “breaking” and “the highest.”
While Smith may have meant it playfully, many netizens didn’t take it lightly—including actress Pokwang, who stepped in with a pointed reminder. “I’ve been in showbiz for 21 years, and the secret is to be humble,” she wrote. “Don’t be boastful. That’s bad.”
Fans and viewers also chimed in, warning Smith that arrogance could cut her career short. Some even pointed out that the current PBB: Celebrity Collab edition had higher viewer numbers across platforms.
Smith’s on-screen partner, JM Ibarra, defended her, warning about “spliced videos” from clout-chasing pages and urging people to choose kindness.
Meanwhile, another video featuring Smith sparked criticism—this time for playfully putting her saliva on fellow star Dingdong Bahan’s face while he was speaking on stage. The act was labeled by commenters as rude and unprofessional.
Smith has yet to issue a statement on either controversy.
