Nene is also known as Nenegizer (alluding to Energizer batteries) because of her strong and long-lasting stamina; this was given during the dance marathon challenge of the housemates.

On December 10, 2005, Tamayo, with the most number of text votes, won the show, after spending 111 days inside the Big Brother house. [1]
