Last week PGT announced that there would be wild card week. This was after the wild card competition which brought the 6 semi-finalists who didn’t make it to the grand finals together. As usual, performance night happened last Saturday and last night was the results night. Rico the Magician made it to the Grand finals of Pilipinas got Talent Season 2, after garnering total votes of 41.68%. Skeights also made it to the finals with 30.16% total votes. For those who wasn’t able to watch the show, here’s a video I found on youtube.

And here are the Grand Finalists of Pilipinas Got Talent Season 2:

1. Freestylers – dance crew
2. Madrigal Siblings – young singers
3. Baguio Boom Boom Boys – dance group
4. Angel Calalas – hula hoop tricker
5. Happy Feet – tap dancers
6. Jem Cubil – acoustic singer
7. John Michael Narag – singer
8. Filogram – dance crew
9. DJP Trio – singing trio
10. Buildex Pagales – singer
11. Leoniel Enopia and Elizabeth Dazo – ballroom dancing duo
12. Marcelito Po Moy – singer
13. Rico the Magician – magician
14. Skeights – band

First semi-finals of the Pilipinas got talent took place last Saturday. The six semi finalist will perform and after that voting will be opened for the viewers and supporters to text and vote their favorite talent. On Sunday, PGT will announce who will move to the grand finals. The highest number of votes will automatically move to the finals but second and third place would have to perform again for the judges and the judges will decide. Rico the magician is one of the favorites and he is one of my favorites too. But he didn’t get the votes of the two female judges that is why he wasn’t able to move to the finals. Here is a copy of his performance that I got from youtube. Enjoy!

After the performance, the judges have to choose and I can see from the expressions of the judges that they are really sad. Maybe they didn’t expect that Rico will not get the highest number of votes and they feel sorry that they have to choose between him and the Madrigal siblings who are also good in their own field, singing. The female judges have to apologize and cry because it was really difficult for them. This is just the first round, there are still five rounds for the semis and there will still a lot of jobs to do. A really hard job of choosing between two talents that can be both deserving.

Good luck to the rest of the semi-finalist.

Pilipinas Got Talent or simply PGT season 2 started last Saturday. I was able to watch the show on Sunday only and one or two acts caught my attention. One is Rico the Magician’s performance. It was really good and I think it’s time to move over, Alakim. Lol! Oopss that was just a joke! I like Alakim too and his Butterfly act. He is good at his craft and so is Rico. So here’s a video of Rico the magician’s performance last Sunday.

First Grand finals of Showtime happened today. There were 11 groups who performed and showed their talents. Complete list of the finalists can be found here. The grand winner was the last group who performed, XB GENSAN. It is very interesting that this group won considering that they joined the finalist as the wild card winners together with Boys unlimited dancers. But this group deserves to win. The routine was great, they are great dancers and you can just feel their emotions. Here’s a video from youtube. Enjoy!

Congratulations to XB Gensan and to the 10 other finalists. They are all good and they are all world class talents. Proud to be Pinoy.

Pilipinas got Talent concluded few minutes ago and the winner is truly deserving!

Congratulations to the first Pilipinas Got Talent Grand Winner, Jovit Baldivino from Batangas. He won 2 Million pesos.  He garnered around 44 % of the total votes. He really has a wonderful voice.  Kris was even asking what show he wants to be part of among all the Kapamilya shows.  Baguio Metamhorposis and Velasco Brothers landed on the top three and each will go home with 100,000 pesos, while the 9 other finalist will go home with 50,000 pesos each.Congratulations to all finalist!

Here is the winning piece of Jovit, got this from youtube, watch, listen and enjoy…..

Six semi finalist gave their best in their Performance night last Saturday at Pilipinas Got Talent. Most of them are very talented. It was a tough decision for the voters and the judges. Though I did not vote. Alakim, got the highest number of votes and got a sure spot on the finals. While Markki and Kapidamu Band was on the second and third spot, it would be the judges decision to put one of them on the finals. Markki, got two out of three votes from the judges. He definitely have the charisma, and got lots of fans already but not so on the talent. But it was the judge’s decision. I felt sorry for Kapidamu Band, because they were better than Markki(ooppss, sorry fans).

Here is Markki’s performance:

Here’s the performance of Alakim. He is really good, and he deserved to be on the number one spot on the second round of semi finals.
Be “mesmerized”, as Kris said.
