2. Buhay ay… Kontesera

Colet is the main vocalist of the group, and the lead dancer and rapper. Her skills contribute to the continuous success of their group. She got her singing talent from her father who is a musician. Even before, she also participated in different singing competitions. Indeed, she is a certified ‘kontesera’.

3. The President and Vice President?

Back in 2018, she auditioned for Star Hunt Academy in Bohol to pursue her passion for singing and dancing. When she became a trainee at SHA, she faced health concerns that almost led to her giving up on her dream. However, quitting was not in her vocabulary. She continued to strive harder to finish what she had started. In a podcast titled ‘How to be a BINI in a Man’s World,’ produced by The ZeenZone, Colet shared that she is inspired by the bravery and independence of the Kapamilya actress Nadine Lustre. Today, her perseverance is gradually paying off with the success of their group.

4. Cho-Colet Hills

Except for the Chocolate Hills which Bohol is proud of, they are also proud of the Boholano BINI member who is now showcasing her talent in the P-pop world. Colet is from Tagbiliran City, Bohol where she was born and raised by her beloved parents.

5. Music In Her Veins

She not only does singing, but she also writes songs. This is something special about the singer. We can’t wait to listen to her soon-to-be-produced songs.

6. Bookworm Colet

Her interest is reading books. In an interview, Colet shares that she is a bookworm type of girl––in just one day, she can read a single book.

7. She’s just Passionate

According to Direk Lauren, Colet is a very conservative and jolly girl, which is something that fans love about her. Aside from that, her fans love her “short-tempered moments” that can be seen on their Kumu Live and other BINI videos. In fact, her fans call her “Anger” because of it. Even at the peak of their popularity now, Colet remains humble with their success and gives back the love and support she gets from their fans.
