On X (formerly Twitter), Kim Atienza shared an unseen video clip of his daughter auditioning for  “Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition.” According to Kim, the clip was sent by Cory Vidanes when she visited his daughter’s wake.

“We agreed not to post it until [PBB Celebrity Collab Edition] season ended. Would my Emmansky be a good housemate?” Kim captioned his post.

In the video, Emman shared that she was known for being an “Englishera,” yet she took pride in being authentic.

“I pride myself on being authentic and posting what I feel like is true to me,” she said in the video.

She also shared about mental health being one of her passions in life: “I’m really passionate about mental health. I wanted to take psychology since I was very, very young because I noticed the lack of mental health resources in the Philippines.”

When asked what could have made her an interesting housemate, the late social media influencer said that her inability to speak Tagalog could be funny, adding that she was an extroverted person who would have loved making friends inside the house.

“I think one thing that could be really funny is just that I can’t speak Tagalog. I think I’m also a very extroverted person. I love to make friends with people. I talk to people just for the fun of it,” she said.

“Anyone who knows me personally know show outgoing I am, and I think being placed in that kind of environment would also help me thrive, hopefully,” she added.

In October 2025, Emman Atienza passed away. She was only 19-years-old.

At a young age, she used her platform to advocate for mental health and socio-political issues.
