Rico Barrera

Rico Barrera (born Frederick Barrera on December 29, 1981) is an Olongappese actor, the first housemate evicted from the 12 housemates of Pinoy Big Brother^[1] (season 1) 2005.

Prior to entering the house, Rico was a singer in Japan. He was the first housemate evicted, on his 21st day in Pinoy Big Brother's house.
