Their fans, known as Blooms, line up early in the afternoon, buzzing with excitement to see the ladies in the flesh on the heels of their North America tour.

That’s why their fans were excited to see them in person as the new faces of the fast-food brand’s Double Cheesy Yumburger.
During the event, BINI members composed of Jhoanna, Aiah, Maloi, Colet, Stacey, Mikha, Sheena, and Gwen remember how they once wished to be part of Jollibee.
“Wish lang namin dati na kunin kami ng Jollibee, and ngayon here we are,” Aiah says.
Colet adds, “Dream come true po talaga, lalo na ako na sa super fan, pangarap ko dati na mag birthday sa Jollibee.”
