Protege: The Battle for the Big Break (7th Gala Show/Wild Card Battle-My Review)




My Apology for my late posting. I was so busy last week completing my requirements for a work. Anyway, This wildcard battle happened Last November 27, 2011 wherein 5 eliminated proteges has been given another chance to prove their worth for the big break wherein Nomer and Lovely advanced and had another shot for the big break.


Competition for the top 5 temporarily stopped to give way for their co-proteges performing on stage once again. The theme was "My Comeback song" really suited that night's competition. So here's my review, my opinion regarding that episode


1st
Samantha Felizco (Joey G's Protege)
who sang How to touch a girl by Jojo

I thought it would be a boring performance for Samantha because this song is not really fit for a wildcard battle, but the way she performed this song, it became a contest piece. Others said that it was a better version than the original, and the judges were right, she does not need to sing birit song always to prove her worth as a singer and Samantha did it.





2nd
Lovely Embuscado (Jaya's Protege)
who sang I believe I can fly by R. Kelly

Her performance of this song made me goosebumps. With her performance, seems like she was saying that she shouldn't been eliminated from the show. And it was also seen in the text votes wherein she ranked 1st. This girl improved a lot even though she is facing a lot of issues regarding her family.





3rd
Nomer Limatog Jr. (Rachelle Anne Go's Protege)
who sang Sweet Child of mine by Guns n' Roses

Several fans knew that this kid has proven his worth to remain in the competition. maybe he got been eliminated before because of a low text votes and wrong song choice. With his performance of that song made him like he is not just a 10-year old boy. Judges and text votes agreed this time tat is why he is back in the game.





4th
Denise Barbacena (Gloc 9's Protege)
who sang Tuwing Umuulan by Regine Velasquez

It's nice to see her back and performed one more time, although she was not given a slot for another big break, she has proven so many times that she is not the weakest among the 10 proteges chosen. With her performance of this song, she sounded mature enough, she shew another side of her when it comes to singing and she is so beautiful on stage.





5th
Rosalyn Navarro (Imelda Papin's Protege)
who sang Power of Love by Jennifer Rush

No doubt Rosalyn can sing. Maybe she was just eliminated first because of the lack in popularity and sometimes she overdo her song. With this performance of her, I think it was Better than her last Performance of Beyonce's Listen. But also with this song proves her title as the Prima Biritera.





AGAIN: No offense meant for their fans, remember, I'm also a fan of them and the show.
