MANILA - The newest batch of housemates proved that they have what it takes to be part of the latest season of "Pinoy Big Brother" as they successfully complete their first task.

The 12 housemates were officially welcomed inside the house on Sunday, where they were given their first task right away.

The housemates were asked to light up the Christmas tree inside the house. To do so, they have to step on blocks to be able to reach the area where the tree is.

They successfully completed their task, which means all 12 of them are safe from nomination.
