Gretchen Espina, thanks for winning the competition. You gave us a victory. You have proven that the crappy show needs a crappy winner. And congrats for being the crappy winner that the GMA 7 franchise deserved. What I think about the FINALE? Crappy. Walang flow. The best of night was Kid's part na naagawan ng spotlight even si Robby Navarro at Luke Mijares. The winning song is a mess. Parang refrain and chorus repeat 5 times! Dut. dut. The finale. Walang grandiose. Walang thrill. Walang pizzazz. Parang auditions lang ng Philippine Idol. Crappy ang nanalo. Wala man lang performances ang TOP 12! I mean yung isa-isa. I am hoping for solos like Kid and Mr. Basil Valdez, Penelope and Ms. Regine Velasquez or Daryl with Ogie Alcasid man lang. -- Parting words, to you visitors! Thanks for reading the recaps and for supporting Vote for the Worst Pinoy. It might not been consistent much, and it might not be a really great spinoff of the original, but hey! It was a good start. We got publici

GRETCHEN ESPINA Your Bilihan/ Biliran Princess and Pera Idol gave nice performances tonight. In fairness, siya lang ang may kinda Idol feel tonight. Yung dalawa kasi parang pre-Finals lang. As usual, hindi pa rin kagalingan si Gretchen pero siya ang may better performances tonight. Round 1: For Your Eyes Only Mababa ang arrangement pero parang pang 5th runner-up sa isang Pinoy Pop Superstar Finale. So okay na din. BWAHAHAHA. Round 2: Stand on Love It suited her. Though the arrangement was adjusted again, it was kinda good to hear her voice na medyo lumalaban. She might've prepared for this well. Round 3: Ngayon UP Manila Madrigal Singers. Haha. Dati, lahat ng finalists may chorale sa likod. If I'm not mistaken sa Philippine Idol eh mas marami pa at mas professional. Her performance is not a WINNER! pero okay na din compared sa other two.

RAM CHAVES See. Ram looks like a turtle! Anyway, here are his songs for tonight Round 1: Bridge Over Troubled Water He has a good voice. But really, its not phenomenal for me. I would like it if he made it 'rock' without those popping eyes and Bamboo Bamboo puto maya moves. Round 2: I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing You're not DAVID COOK. But GMA 7 wants you to win just to have someone to compare to him. But you will never ever be a DAVID COOK. You're so yabang. It was quite good but, mababa masyado ang arrangement! Halatang hindi abot. Round 3: Salamat Sipsip sa Pinas. Ram, you're such an act. You're very very plastic. It's not a good performance for me, 'cause there's nothing extraordinary with what you did.

JAYANN BAUTISTA Round 1: I'll Never Love This Way Again And that's what Wyngard wanted for her. Kid Camaya's version was way better. Hindi nga ka-LSS LSS ang version ni Jayann eh. Pweh. Very ordinary. Flats and notes are all over the place. She's very very nervous. Round 2: You'll Never Walk Alone Walang panama kay Jordin Sparks. Very shaky performance. Disappointing even if she has a very powerful voice. Round 3: Proud Mary For the final song and supposed to be a winning song, congratulations for picking a dance act. That was so lame. It's not impressive. It's not a winning moment type of song. And again, if you win. You're still a loser. You won a crappy contest. Don't be too happy.

Something big's coming up. Gretchen, oh Gretchen. Win it! Everyone here at Vote for the Worst Pinoy is supporting you! Your Biliran Princess... Bilihan Princess... Penoy Idol... Pera Idol.... is.... GRETCHEN ESPINA! Go Girl! Prove us that you can be one of the most hated celebrities (are you even worth the label "celebrity"?) of the Philippine showbiz. I can't wait! I want to see her doing at least an Imelda Papin or an Aegis song at the Finals. She'll probably crack up with her winning song, like what she did in her I'm Here performance. I am pretty much sure her father's millions would make her win! And we're hoping that she wins too. As for Jayann, you're good. Pero whatever yaya Jayann, you're such a loser. As in loser in contests that you've joined. Even winning Pinoy Idol does not make you much of a winner. Winning a loser show makes you a loser too. And Ram, you're only advantage is that you're the only guy at the Finals. And

The Biliran Princess Gretta is in the Top 3! Congratulations to us! And now, what a way to end the competition but to give the show a worthy winner. CRAPPY SHOW=CRAPPY WINNER and who could be the best option but GRETCHEN ESPINA . The show does not deserve to have Jayann Bautista as the winner. Let's add another singing contest in the roster of her losses. After all, she's a hustler in losing these type of contests, isn't she? Not Ram, 'cause we know that GMA 7 has been pimping him for the crown. Its because they want a DAVID COOK counterpart. But it would be a great Finale! Imagine GRETCHEN singing MANANG BIDAY or ITIK ITIK SA MANILA ZOO would be such a delight. Imagine her singing in front of the two hundred people that will fit in SMX Convention Center 'cause the show can't afford to fill up the Araneta Coliseum. I imagine her dress. Oh! Her dress. And that make-up of hers that doesn't even compliment her icky facial expressions. Ilukot mo pa ang mukha mo

One is a veteran loser in singing contests... One is the princess of Biliran... One is the puppethead Bamboo Bamboo Puto Maya... Tell me, is it still worth watching without the banker there? This show's a crap. Bye Daryl and Kid. You know that people love you much.

The Greatest Idol Performance night proved to be dismaying. Here's a recap of tonight's episode. Daryl Celis sang The Promise and proved that he's worthy to be in the top five. His performance is plain and smooth but it lacked the intensity. Taking on Fantasia's broadway hit I'm Here is our worster, Gretchen Espina who even cried right after her performance. She murdered the song. She even asked for the arrangement to be lowered 'cause she simply can't reach the notes. It was boring, a mess in the middle part and ended quite okay. But her notes are all over the place! Kid Camaya was the third to perform. Despite his being paos tonight, he made the best out of it. He had a great performance except for the slightly-sablay falsettos (since paos nga sya). All in all, it was the best performance of the night. He sang Careless Whisper and he did pretty well given his condition. Jayann was dismaying this night. Her intro had sharps and flats. Her mid-part was bo

As you all know, GMA 7 and Pinoy Idol postponed the "shocking elimination" twist which allegedly was to eliminate three Idols. But we were left with five singers. And Warren Antig , our worster, was sent home packing. This week, we are putting all our efforts to vote for the princess of Biliran and make her daddy proud! Say hello to Gretchen Espina , our returning Lagpaker.

It is almost official now that three would be going home tomorrow. I had the chance to be in the taping earlier and here's the recap ranking: 1. Kid Camaya (by a mile) 2. Ram Chaves 3. Gretchen Espina 4. Jayann Bautista 5. Daryl Celis 6. Warren Antig Warren f*cked up the song. Kid did the best performance ever. Jayann didn't deliver as expected and Ram acted up. This night is nice because of Basil Valdez. But he's a lame judge too. My fearless forecast for the Top 3. Ram, Gretchen and Kid Deserves to be in the top three: Kid, Jayann Vote for the Worst Pinoy still supports WARREN ANTIG to the FINAL 3 :-)

This is not confirmed yet. But... PINOY IDOL will be eliminating three contestants next week. The top three Idols will battle it out for three weeks but no one will be eliminated. By Finale, the person with the most votes wins.

Bye Penelope ! Thanks for giving Warren another week to stay in the competition. Warren and Kid joined her in the bottom 3. -- Next week, the Top 6 namely: Kid Camaya, Gretchen Espina, Jayann Bautista, Ram Chaves, Warren Antig and Daryl Celis will be mentored by Basil Valdez. -- There will be a BIG twist daw. And its very predictable that two will be eliminated next week and one loser will be going back :)

Here I go again, on bashing mode. Thank God, this time Pinoy Idol managed to give us a recap of the Top Whack-o 7. Let's bash, shall we? The judges were a bit okay tonight. Raymond is an eyesore. Karylle f*cked up. The bands looked like fangirls supporting the Idols murdering their original songs. And a bunch of so-so singers wanting to be the next Jonalyn Viray! Better Performers Jayann Bautista . Akin Ka Na Lang. She will be the Pinoy Idol and GMA's pawn against their flop Pinoy Pop Superstar "grand" champion Mariciris. Anyhoo, Jayann's better and has been versatile enough. I am so excited to see her doing a Phuong Vy on Asian Idol 2008. Kid Camaya. Stay. I am a bit shocked that it's going to be Cueshe' that he's performing tonight. I hate the band. I hate the song. Maybe because its vocalist is much more of a percussionist than a vocal genius. But Kid made me like the song, he made it his own. At the peak of the song, it was very moving, it felt cl

Here's an update: Bye bye SHNIFFER REI! We will miss you here at Vote for the Worst Pinoy. Toffer Rei, Daryl Celis and Ram Chaves are the bottom three. And I am hoping Ram goes home tonight. Sayonara, turtle-head.

Here's the power ranking for this week. Even a basher like me has lost that hype for bashing Pinoy Idol. It felt tiring. Here's to hoping that next week I'll be back to bash more. 01. Penelope 02. Daryl Celis 03. Kid Camaya 04. Ram Chaves 05. Jayann Bautista 06. Gretchen Espina 07. Toffer Rei 08. Warren Antig Who's Leaving? The bottom two might be Ram and Warren. Or Kid. The judges are very unfair. Kid is really something and I would be so devastated if he goes. As of now, Penelope and Kid are the best. I'm betting on a Warren exit tomorrow. Daryl Celis is surprising us each week with better performances. They keep on hyping the Ramboo guy, but it just doesn't work for me. WHO ELSE HAS NOTICED THAT THEY CUT ANOTHER RAYMOND PART and gave it to JAYA (The Mentor)??

Unlike the usual recap or crappy rant post, here's an essay by MidwayHeaven about the Demise of the Franchise, Pinoy Idol. We are appealing to Fremantle Media that the franchise be returned to ABC 5 for next year. The Demise of the Franchise by MidwayHaven July 14, 2008 As I write this, Pinoy Idol fan blogs all over the country are celebrating the elimination of Sue Ellen, a 16-year old singer from Iloilo City. Though she was only the fourth among the traditional twelve finalists, Sue Ellen nevertheless outlasted two others, namely Mae and Robby, who were considered fan favorites in the show. Despite the fact that she was, indeed, a poor singer, Sue Ellen's elimination only reflects the dismal state of the current Idol franchise in the Philippines. The sad fact is that fans are scrounging around, looking for a so-called "winner," from a remaining group of amateur singers who obviously lack the necessary talent to be considered "Idols." The "Idol" f

Even the songbird can't fly today. It was, as expected a dismaying night. Even Regine Velasquez' guesting didn't help the lame show! We saw nine mediocre singers who can be proud of themselves singing better than Jolina Magdangal or Wyngard Tracy. They're performances didn't even level off with Regine's greatness. Jayann started the night with Pangarap Ko Ang Ibigin Ka . Nothing very phenomenal with the performance. Jayann has a really good voice, she can very well beat Maricris Garcia or Jonalyn Viray, if that's what GMA's standard is. It's such a surprise for Shniffer the Sniffer Rei to sing You Made Me Stronger. He had a shaky start but a flawless ending. Again, so-so. We have a very nervous Penelope in the stage singing What Kind of Fool I Am . It was Penelope's worst performance. Notes are all over the place. Messed up and murdered performance. Daryl Celis gave a simple, plain performance which gave all the girls (and gays) out there an op

Vote for the Worst Pinoy would like to congratulate all those who didn't vote for Robby the Shnobby. And it's once again a success! Hey Shnobby, no need to quit 'cause Vote for the Worst Pinoy's behind you, if you feel that Pinoy Idol isn't for you. Buh-bye now. Buh-bye. And we have nine remaining hopeless talents. Keep on supporting Gretchen Espina, Warren Antig and Toffer Rei. We are encouraging you to vote your heart's out for this week's Lagpak's which are in the bottom three: Daryl Celis and Sue Ellen! We're all happy that you two survived the elimination last night. And I am really happy, that one of GMA's bets wouldn't win the title. It would be orgasmic if someone like Sue or Daryl will eventually turn out to be the winner. Go Kid Camaya and

Now, some of Wyndard Trapo's comments are really off. Especially when he commented on Kid's performance as of a highschool rendition. WTF! What happened to your ears Wyngard? It's not even reverse psychology. It'd probably because Rhian Ramos kissed this guy and Kid never didn't do what you wanted him to do! He doesn't deserve the criticism you gave him, and he was even the best of the night! Darn. So here's my recap. RAMboo started with a bang. Good performance. Hate his antics. Next, please. Gretchen bored me to death. And I'd be certainly seeing her in the competition next week since she's gonna get lots of votes, yet again. Sue-huahua Uling. The chihuahua she is, Sue improved this week and I think she's better with these type of songs and of course, chipmunks and M2M songs. But really even if she improved, she still doesn't deserve the Idol title, vocals-wise. One of the surprises of the evening is Shniffer the Rocker. Yea, he rocked &qu

I am disappointed, pissed and dismayed. Tonight's results were okay, if not for the inclusion and the deliberate exit of Mae Flores . And with that, we're down to eight chipmunks, Kid Camaya and Jayann Bautista. Even your worster has bets and sadly, most of them are gone now. That includes Meryl, Jeni, Regene and JJ Jr. and Mae. Mae has been consistent since Top 16. She's my bet since she sang with Regene at SMX (I Will Survive). She is actually a darkhorse to win it. She might not have the same excellent performance last night, she has given us one of the two best performances the show has given us so far. Mae should have made it through. Warren and Toffer consistently gave us bad performances the past four weeks! Well, I'm kinda happy that Warren stayed proving the effectivity of VFTW to influence people. My final take: Pinoy Idol is downright pitiful. It is hopeless and won't, in any way, produce the best singer of the country, nor of the competition. Well, unle

The site Survivor Philippines Sucks , the haven for Survivor fanatics and bashers has featured the Iboto ang Lagpak: Vote for the Worst Pinoy edition site. And because of that, I'll return this disgruntled Idol watchers a favor. Hey there Survivor Philippines Sucks, thanks for supporting my site! I hope we can continue the fight for better shows! We are truly humbled upon your support! :-) Sincerely yours, Lagpakerz. -- I will also be adding the link at the sidebar.

We're down to eleven. We saw some improvements with the lightings, the stage, the set and the judges becoming a little bit relevant. But still, we're down to eleven sucky singers. No one got the 'excellent' thing once again. No one even make me smile. A lot made me laugh. And here's your most-awaited bashing recap. And to add to the whackness of the show, they still can't pick a genre to theme their gala night and after their option "My Greatest Performance" comes this week's theme, "I Sing This Song For..." Looks like Formal Theme no. Whatsoever to me. And elementary years haunts me... Tonight, we start with Fred Flintstone introducing us the Whack 11 . We start the night with the one who can only sing Filipino rock songs. Murdering the enunciation of every word of the song You Give Love A Bad Name , I can say that yes, you gave the song a bad rendition. Warren looked too skippy and hoppy and high with his annoying smile. He's just

And we'll see more boring performances, freaky dance moves from Sue Ellen and I imagine her doing a Salbakuta with her song choice for this week. Shniffer Rei would probably mess up his song like what he did the past two weeks. Warren's choosing recycled songs and will defy another worst performance next round. And we'll support him so he ain't going nowhere. Penelope will try to show us how versatile she is but will fail to do that. Mae won't disappoint us this round. Kid will probably win our hearts with his vocals but will bore us to death. Gretchen sang the song that Miguel of PDA sang last round. Nice job picking a song, aye? And we will see Ramboo transform into a Banal na Aso this round. I hope he gets eliminated. I don't get what Pinoy Idol's theme this week. 1) Kid Camaya- I'll Never Love This Way Again (Anwar Robinson) 2) Warren Antig- You Give Love A Bad Name (Bon Jovi) 3) Toffer Rei- Changes In My Life (Mark Sherman) 4) Ram Chaves- Banal Na A

It was another fun-filled night tonight as another good hopeful got booted out of the competition. Jeni Rawolle, the “great lounge singer” lost her battle to be the first Pinoy Idol. Proving that beauty and talent won’t guarantee winning, Jeni has been one of the top competitors of the competition. Not to mention, Jeni has a good heart too. In fact, she has dropped by in our site the past weeks. Hello there, Jeni! It was a shocking night indeed! Joining Jeni in the bottom group were surviving Chuckie doll Sue Uling and one of the better and versatile competitors, Kid Camaya. With that, we’re down to ten karaoke singers and a chipmunk. Don’t forget to support Warren Antig next week! Vote for the Worst Pinoy has been successful in helping Warren stay, and of course we helped Gretchen to stay through to the Final 12! Looks like Toffer’s not that “unfamous” as we think he is, aye? And Ram too, looks like he has some Bamboo fans loyal to him, aye?

Horrible lightings. Irrelevant ramblings from the judges. Irritating “Winner!” comments from Jolina. This pretty much sums up the 1st pre-recorded Gala Night of Pinoy Idol. And tomorrow, after the newly-imposed seventeen-hour text voting (only) votation process, another good performer would be going home. Tonight, we start the show off with a dismaying performance by the Whack 12. We saw lights everywhere and I mean everywhere! The lights didn’t even compliment the stage design. There’s nothing grandeus with the new set. The technicals did a horrible job, since the arrangements were off and the band can’t be heard vividly. One minute performances. Lengthen it guys! Get more ads! :-) I advise. So, Gretchen started off with a bomber song choice and that is Aretha Franklin’s Respect . Yes, dear, you are no Aretha but doing that song takes a lot than what you have. You gave us an incomparable performance. It was way too ordinary that it seemed like it was a baby singing a nursery rhyme. H

Yes, I know. It's gonna be another boring performance night tomorrow. Well, I can't be much redundant about my ill feelings for this show na. Grabe. I'll just give you what the TOP WHACK 12 has to offer. 01. Daryl Celis- Superstar (Usher) 02. Kid Camaya- Ordinary People (John Legend) 03. Ram Chavez- With Arms Wide Open (Creed) 04. Robby Navarro- One Last Cry (Brian McKnight) 05. Toffer Rei- Honestly (Harem Scarem) 06. Warren Antig- Shout (Disturbed) 07. Gretchen Espina- Respect (Aretha Franklin) 08. Jayann Bautista- A Natural Woman (Aretha Franklin) 09. Jeni Rawole- Inseparable (Natalie Cole) 10. Mae Flores- You Oughta Know (Alanis Morisette) 11. Penelope- Alone (Heart) 12. Sue Ellen- Survivor (Destiny's Child) NOTE: My prediction? All of them will suck except for Penelope and Kid. Warren stays as the Vote for the Worst Pinoy pick! Here's our current ranking of LAGPAK IDOL Hopefuls. PINAKALAGPAK 01 Warren Antig 02 Sue Ellen 03 Gretchen Espina OK OK PA ANG KALAGPAK

Apparently, Filipinos are not voting for the worst people anymore. The not-so-top 12 will perform next week at SMX and the Carol Leus and JJ Jr. exited the show this round. To compete in the Top 12 are Sue Ellen, Jeni Rawolle, Penelope, Jayann Bautista, Gretchen Espina and Mae Flores for the girls; Kid Camaya, Toffer Rei, Warren Antig, Robby Navarro, Daryl Celis and Ram Chaves for the guys. We're down to twelve mediocre singers and GMA 7's still clueless of what's happening. They have actually booted off possible Idol winners and didn't do anything to prevent it. Poor franchise. At least, here at Vote for the Worst Pinoy , we're happy to see Gretchen and Warren safe and performing next week. In the bottom two were Mae Flores and Daryl Celis . PS: I was actually gonna be in Filmex, Makati today but the rain fell so hard. Good thing kasi ansakit tingnan na natanggal ang dalawang pinakamagaling pinakamahina sa kompetisyon.

If there's really someone in the competition who's focused into winning this contest, it's gonna be Kid . His performance tonight didn't even sound Michael Jackson. It's great. Kid has the best vocals among the guys. Kaya lang, he lacks star appeal at medyo plain nga. Kailangan nga ng konting intrigue kaya kinailangang i-magnify ang baklaan banggaan nila ni JJ. The kid should be in the Top 12. :-) Ang sarap niyang pakinggan. Ampangit lang talaga ng leeg niya, no? Nawawala na ang charms ni Daryl Celis week by week. Pero sa lagay niya this week, he's improving naman kahit papaano. Ayos naman ang dinadagdag niyang kaunting kulot-kulot sa kanta pero hindi nga lang kasi talaga nagkecreate ng impact. Nagbridge na't lahat bored pa din kami. Daryl, bigyan mo naman ng hustisya ang face value mo, para naman may dahilang iboto ka ng mga baklang nagtititili sa iyo! Nako, ayan na naman si Ramboo! Nakakainis siya dahil may attitude siya at kahit ilang beses na siyang su

Jayann Bautista. Iha! Dahan-dahan lang. Huwag mo kaming sigawan! Though maganda ang boses niya, mukhang palagi syang pasigaw! Narinig ko na ito sa isang konsyerto before with Mark Bautista at ayos naman siya kaya nakagugulat ang kanyang pagdedeteriorate sa Pinoy Idol. Jeni Rawolle made a pretty good performance and the judges said the otherwise. WTF!? Pinoy Idol is so wrong. At nakakatuwa ang self-destruction na ito! Lagot kayo sa fans ni Jeni! HAHAHA. Anrami pa naman nila! Mae Flores . For me, she's one of the better contestants. Meydo nag-improve ang lukring. Bumabalik na ang kanyang spunk. Mala-Wendy Valdez ito nung nasa PDA si Wendy. Maayos din naman ang pagkakakanta niya at mararamdaman mo, so okay okay na din siya. Pinilupi, nilupi mu naman ang intunasyun mu day! Piborit pa naman kita! Piru may intunasyun ka. Hahahahaha. At sino ba nagsabing magsuot siya ng ganun, mukha siyang chimay!? Pero kahit ano pa man ang mangyari, sa round na ito, si Penelope pa din ang nag-shine. Wa

What the heck!?! Super warlahan naman ang Kid Camaya at JJ Jr. sa national TV. Looks like competition's heating up for the kiddos. Kid's quite the serious and KJ type kasi and JJ as Kid said, "...is too much for himself." May pagka-mayabang nga ata at may attitude ang loko, akala mo naman kagalingan kumanta. Well, Kid's not sintunado. JJ's horrible at performances. Ampanget pa ng pangalan niya. Like super infinity na ang J sa pangalan niya. Even GMA wala nang maisip na ikagaganda pa ng pangalan niya, tapos inarte pa! Well, its just simple eh. Respetuhan lang yan. Baklaan lang 'yan. No offense meant ah. Pero 'yun lang yata ang hanap ng dalawa eh. HAHAHAHA. Baka kaya init ng ulo niyo sa isa't isa dahil type niyo ang each other. Napatagalog tuloy ako. Update: Sa mga nagsasabing TOP 14 ang magpeperform sa Sabado, hindi daw ito totoo. Top 7 guys daw sa Saturday at Top 7 girls sa Friday. Okay, okay!? Ayon yan sa reliable source, kaya maniwala na kayo. O

Well, here's an updated list of the song choices... So, let's discuss them shall we? Shniffer Rei will be singing another (oh, can't we get tired of this?) rock version of whatchamacallit song of Edwin McCain. Insecurobby Navarro has chosen another ballad, so I'm expecting he'll be another disappointment (for us, 'cause he's gonna give us another flawless performance) *yawns*. JJ Jr. (getting annoyed with the name with infinite J's in it, GMA couldn't even think of anymore names for his lame name, no? Like Joselindo Pimpinio Jr. was changed in a rather worse name, JJ Jr.) will sing a Luther Vandross song? Oh no! Looks like he wants to top our Lagpakerz list this week. There is no doubt in my mind that Daryl Celis will be dancing to the tune of Right Here Waiting, and everybody's excited. Duh. Kid Camaya (the only possible matino among the guys) chose another boring song. Well, IbotoAngLagpak team would be very happy if he goes home, lesser good

Here's the spoilers from IdolMole. Enjoy! :] Kid - Dance With My Father (Luther Vandross) Toffer - Have I Told You Lately? (Rod Stewart) Daryl - You Raise Me Up (Josh Groban) JJ - Just The Two Of Us (Will Smith) Ram - Seein' My Father In Me (Paul Overstreet) Warren - Anak (Freddie Aguilar) Robby - Papa Was A Rolling Stone (The Temptations) For the girls: Mae - Because You Loved Me (Celine Dion) Gretchen - Papa Can You Hear Me? (Barbra Streisand) Penelope - There You'll Be (Faith Hill) Jeni - My Heart Belongs To Daddy (Ella Fitzgerald) Sue - Papa Won't You Dance With Me? (Doris Day) Carol - I Turn To You (Christina Aguilera) Jayann - In My Life (The Beatles) -- With another lame song choice, I think there's a huge possibility of Warren being put up at the VFTWP pick for this week again. For the girls, well, there's still Carol Leus and Gretchen Espina. As of now, IbotoAngLagpak's picks are Gretchen Espina and Warren Antig.

Two of the remaining goodies in the competition exited the show last night, it's no surprise as Walton Zerrudo and Meryl David got the boot. Meryl's lack of looks and personality got the best of her. Her performance last Saturday was okay and one of the best ones. Though one of the most consistent ones in the competition, Meryl, who confessed that Lauryn Hill mostly influences her music style, was voted out last night. She sang Killing Me Softly . Even if the judges gave the hype to Walton Zerrudo, he still lost his way to stardom. Even owning the night last Friday, Walton received the lowest number of votes along with Kid and Toffer in the Bottom 3. Along with Meryl in the bottom three were the best of the performance night: Mae Flores and Jeni Rawolle. --- Comments. It's actually suspicious since they only eliminated two this round (one male, one female). Can't they afford Kid, Toffer, Jeni, or Mae (some of the better contestants) to leave the show? If they want the

The Top 16 has just been named. Its time to know who's up at Vote for the Worst Pinoy Iboto ang Lagpak ( I b A n L ag!).
