Pinoy Dream Academy Season 2 Finals this Saturday

September 10, 2008

THE grand finals of Pinoy Dream Academy Season 2 will be held this Saturday and Sunday nights at the Cuneta Astrodome. Big name guest stars headed by Judy Ann Santos and Derek Ramsay, stars of the forthcoming series, “Humingi AKo Sa Langit,” will be gracing the occasion.

The Grand Big Night on September 13, Saturday, will see the Top 6 Scholars do their best in their Final Performance night, then the awarding for the top winners will be held the next day, Sunday.

Last Saturday, the Dream BIGayan Concert for a Cause where the remaining 6 scholars did a fundraising show for their chosen charities was such a big success. They sang songs they personally chose, with Laarni doing her own version of the classic Eartha Kitt song “Waray-Waray,” Cris doing the Pussycat Dolls’ “Sway,” Bugoy doing Guy Sebastian’s “All I Need is You,” Liezel doing Rihanna’s “Please Don’t Stop the Music,” Miguel doing Robbie William’s “Rock DJ,” and the heartthrob Van making the girls swoon with his rendition of the 98 Degrees’ “True to Your Heart.”

What viewers don’t know is that Laarni and Miguel (who sports a becoming short haircut) had a small tiff during the performance. Laarni felt one of her boobies was shown accidentally during their dance number. But it’s only her imagination as nothing was really shown.

In their final week, the scholars were able to give a tribute to their four mentors. Laarni mimicked Teacher Monet and gave him a Giant Clown Award. Miguel aped Ryan Cayabyab who was given Happy Feet Award as he is very fond of dancing. Liezel imitated voice mentor Kitchie Molina who was given the Breath Flow Award. But the most riotous of all is Van who got to ape their favorite teacher, Director Joey Reyes, who really hammed it up when he put on the wig used by Laarni as Monet. He was given the More Than Words Award.

Before their final performances, the scholars performed in mall shows in SM Bicutan and Pavillion Mall Biñan, Laguna with ousted scholars Apple, Inaki, Bunny and Sen. Judging from the warm and wild reception of their fans in these malls, looks like the scholars now have their own legion of fans rooting for them.
