Mikee Lee, the Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition first runner-up, is on the brink of his second wave of fame. He has two new shows — Star Magic Presents: ABT UR LUV and Love Spell Presents Pasko Na Santa Ko. You should see him now. A shy and lanky teener before, he’s metamorphosed into a more outgoing star. Star Magic has certainly worked its magic on him. Being an entertainment figure has sunk in. He has started to adapt a matinee idol look, and although he has given up his eyeglasses and acquired more muscles, he has retained his intelligence, preppy look and love for family. He communicates well and loves wearing a striped shirts over plain-colored tees.

Star Magic Presents: ABT UR LUV gathers the great lookers at Star Magic for a one-hour teen drama every Saturday. Besides Mikee, the ABT UR LUV crew includes (in alphabetical order of their first names) Aaron Agassi, AJ Perez, Alfred Gatchalian, Angelo Patrimonio, Carla Humphries, Chris Gutierrez, Denise Laurel, Empress Schuck, Enchong Dee, Joaqui Mendoza, Lauren Young, Mikki Arceo, Rayver Cruz, Shaina Magdayao, Valeen Montenegro, Victor Basa and Zia Marquez. Is Mikee headed for role model status?

Mikee is such a wholesome guy that he has no problems with being driven to Ateneo University and ABS-CBN by his mom. In fact, he’s proud of his closeness to his family. His common sense is not so common. Of the P500,000 prize he won at PBB Teen Edition, he bought only a pair of signature rubber shoes and decided to place everything else in the bank. His participation in the reality contest had made him come out of his shell and maximize what his new situation has to offer. And he’s doing a great job at it, showing his leadership, intelligence and flexibility.

When I asked the cast of Love Spell Presents Pasko Na Santa Ko who they think will be biggest name among the PBB Teen Edition crew next year, it was Mikee who was the first to vote for Matt Evans, who plays Pedro Penduko in the fantasy series of the same title. His opinion was echoed by a majority of the finalists, winning for Matt the distinction. Most of those present in the launch expected Gerald Anderson to be singled out. When I asked Matt if there are cliques among them, he offered an opinion, “Hindi kasi namin sila (referring to Gerald and Kim Chui) nakaka-bonding. Lagi silang busy.”
