The tension is definitely building up as Pinoy Fear Factor: Argentina, South America goes into its final week. Manuel Chua, the Participante who’s been leading in almost all of the stunts, even had a misunderstanding with bitter rival Jommy Teotico. In an exclusive interview, ABS-CBN.com spoke with Manuel about what sparked the conflict during the Status: A Valentine’s Night with the Scholars concert last Friday, February 13.

The trouble began during one stunt when Manuel chose to save Participante Janna Dominguez. “Ang pinagbasehan ko talaga ng decision ko na si Janna ang maliligtas is siya naman talaga ‘yung mas maraming nakuhang strawberries (in the stunt). Nalaglag nga lang ‘yung isa. Inisip ni Jommy na strategy kong iligtas ‘yung babae. Sobra na ‘yung init ng competition. Tuwing sasalang kami sa stunt, ramdam mo na lahat kayo magkakalaban. Tumindi ‘yung labanan pero hindi ko naman inexpect na magkakaroon ng alliances at pagtutulungan ako. Pero tuwing bumabalik naman kami sa camp okay naman kami. Lahat kami magkaka-barkada.” As if to prove that there was really no trouble between them, Manuel was with Jommy, Janna, and Marion dela Cruz at the Status concert. read more
