Errol "Budoy"listenⓘ Marabiles (born October 22, 1971) is aFilipinoreggae musician, songwriter and TV host. He was one of the fourteen housemates in theABS-CBN showPinoy Big Brother:Celebrity Edition.
Marabiles, easily recognizable among the housemates because of hisdreadlocks or turban, attended theUniversity of the Philippines Cebu.
Billed by the show as the "M16 ofSamar", he is best known as the vocalist of theCebu-based reggae bandJunior Kilat, which is responsible for songs such asOriginal Sigbin (In Bisaya mythology,Sigbin is a mythical creature),K Fyne (Okay, Fine) andAko si M16 (I am M16), which secured the Best Song in the 2005 NU Rock awards sponsored by theManila-based rock radio stationNU 107. That song bested most rock compositions ofManila-based bands though its lyrics are in Cebuano.
Together with one of his bandmates, Marabiles also co-produced and hosted the magazine showIsmol Tym (Small Time) on the independent Cebu-based cable channel RCTV prior to entering PBB.
Marabiles was evicted from the PBB house on Day 49 after losing to fellow nomineesZanjoe Marudo andBianca Gonzalez through the people's vote. During his stay in the house, he composed (and performed) some songs that are in the Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Edition soundtrack:Budoy Ako, a Visayan adaptation ofPinoy Ako, andMaligo Na Jam, based on his "Maligo na" (Take a bath already) rap, together with fellow housematesRico Robles andRoxanne Barcelo.
After being evicted from the House, there was a published report thathe told reporters the correct spelling of his last name is "Mirabiles"[permanent dead link], not "Marabiles" as earlier listed in the official show website and related collateral.
