Meet Charisse

Biography
She works as a product officer in a telecom company but she knows she’s pretty and smart enough to be the host of a noontime show.

Charisse has always wanted to be a host of Eat Bulaga! After graduating from Ateneo de Manila University, however, she found herself working in the corporate world away from the spotlight.

Being a natural kikay and fashionista, Charisse was often seen as a high-maintenance and finicky girl.

She wants to prove therefore that more than being pretty, she's also a smart babe and a focused achiever.

Being in Survivor Philippines gives Charisse the ultimate opportunity to prove that she has beauty as well as the brains.


Charisse says:

"I want to be perceived as the smart one and intellectual castaway in my tribe.

I want to be valued for what I can contribute especially during mental challenges that involves critical thinking.

Not being a threat since I am not an athlete or a physically strong person will ensure me a long stay in the game and hopefully land a spot n the final 2.

My favorite castaway is Elizabeth of Survivor: Australian Outback of the US version. I like her because she is very pretty and smart and she managed to build a solid career in hosting years after her stint in Survivor."

Paolo says:

The "Kikay" or "Smart Babe," Cha will use her social skills and her drive to try anything at least once in her life with much gusto to get to the Top 2.

Admitting to one and all that physically she isn’t anywhere near the strongest of competitors, Cha believes that Survivor Philippines is a mind game more than anything.

Will her tribemates look beyond what she may lack in physicality and see her cerebral approach as an asset to their tribe?
