After 14 weeks of intense challenges and emotional moments inside the ‘Pinoy Big Brother’ house, Fyang Smith was crowned the Big Winner of Generation 11 on Saturday, taking home 30.66% of the public vote.
Along with her title, Smith received P1 million in cash and a brand-new house and lot, marking a significant milestone in her journey.
Expressing gratitude, Smith shared, “I want to thank everyone supporting me since Day 1. I did it… I love you guys so much.”

The Big Night also marked a historic moment for Filipino digital viewership. The grand finale garnered a record-breaking 2.2 million combined live views across ABS-CBN’s platforms, with YouTube alone seeing a peak of 1.978 million live concurrent viewers. This figure more than doubles the previous record held by ‘FPJ’s Batang Quiapo’ at 778,000 viewers on October 4 and far exceeds the 623,000 set by the ‘2023 Miss Universe Philippines’ coronation night.
