Biography

Robi was born on September 27, 1989 to parents who are both doctors. His father, Roberto "Boy" Domingo who acted as his guardian inside the PBB house, is a General Surgeon while his mother, Mary Ann Domingo works as the company doctor of SSS. Robi has one younger brother named Robert Marlo Domingo (known as Maro) who also went inside the PBB house for one day.

Robi has been attending the Ateneo since elementary and decided to continue studying there for his pre-med studies after exiting the PBB house. He is now a college sophomore majoring in Health Sciences.

Television career

Robi, together with his fellow housemate Josef Elizalde, entered the Pinoy Big Brother house as the "Plus housemates". Their entry was given the "school rivalry" angle because they both come from schools that are considered as rivals in the Philippines. During the first week, Robi and Josef were given the secret task of convincing their housemates that they were "Best Buds Forever" who have been estranged for a number of years only to see each other again in the show's auditions. They were not able to succeed in their task because their ruse was discovered by housemate Jieriel.

Robi managed to not get a single nomination from his housmates for several weeks because they were all in agreement with Robi. The clean streak was broken by Nicole Uysiuseng who gave him his first point. Incidentally, that same nomination day, the teens' guardians nominated Robi for eviction, citing the reasons that Robi was wealthy and "did not need the prize". Though he only got one point from Nicole and no other housemates gave him the nomination, the guardians' decision was enough to put him up in the list of those nominated for eviction for that week together with Josef, Nicole and Rona. Robi managed to get the highest percentage of votes and survived that eviction night and Jolas was evicted.

Shortly after exiting the PBB house, Robi, Josef and Nicole were given the opportunity to join the cast of the Philippine remake of My Girl, playing a minor role as Hanna Abueva/Miranda's admirer^. Robi was next seen in the annual VJ search of the music channel MYX wherein he competed for one of four available slots. After the competition, Robi was proclaimed as one of the channel's newest VJs together with Bianca Roque, Chino Lui Pio and Monica Yncierto. He was also given a regular in ABS-CBN's Sunday variety show, ASAP as part of the dance group, Gigger Boys. His next project was also with the group when he took the role of Arkin in Your Song presents: Boystown, where he played opposite Enchong Dee and Jessy Mendiola.

Aside from being a regular in ASAP, Robi experienced what it's like to be on stage for a concert when he joined Sarah Geronimo in some of the latter's shows for her The Next One concert tour. Even after new VJs were named in the 2009 MYX VJ search, Robi was retained as a video jock and he has expressed his joy about being chosen by the network. Aside from this, Robi also shot an episode for Maalaala Mo Kaya where in he played Gerald Anderson's younger brother. Lastly, Robi started filming a guest role in the upcoming film centering on the loveteam of Anderson and Kim Chiu.
