0 A NIGHT WITH THE PHILIPPINES' X-FACTOR

Few nights ago I had the chance to watch to live performance of the X Factor Philippines hosted by KC Concepcion at the Pagcor Theatre. One of the most prestigious shows in the country and the world originated from Great Britain. This is owned by well-known Simon Cowell known from his firm judgement of the American Idol. A friend of ours invited to watch the gala night in support to KZ Tandingan. She is one of the best contenders in the competition for her versatility and uniqueness. She has the ability to alter the song on her own way but the lyrics and the tune is still at hand. Obviously I know her since the audition.

Honestly, hindi ko kilala ang mga contestants. I don’t watch X Factor not because I don’t like the show but I just don’t have time to watch because of my work time. Although I heard other names, groups and solos but I don’t have any idea how good they are. Nung nasa loob na ako ng theatre, ang alam ko buong suporta ko kay KZ lang dahil nga talaga namang magaling siya. Tulad nang sabi ko sa audition pa lang nakuha na niya ang atensiyon ko, even the judges and the people inside the hall. There was a standing ovation from other supporters. Magaling talaga ang batang ito..the way she sang, the way she changed the tune then back to its original harmony. So, she has the style.

Before the show started there are rehearsals, not just the participants, not just the staff, even the audience. What to do and when to do.. I was quite the whole time while waiting for the show live on air, I need to reserve and my energy and my voice. I have to give all my support to her in return to a free ticket and the chance to be there live. When the show began, the host introduced then the judges then the contestants.

KZ  supporters.

Every week has a theme. As the host commenced, it was tribute night from the great singers who has gone already. So let us check what the song choice of the contestants.

Order of Performances: 

Mang Modesto Taran (voted out) performed "Pure Imagination" by Louis Allen Rawls. 

Daddy's Home performed "All at Once" by Whitney Houston. Whoo..anlalamig ng boses.

Allen Sta. Maria performed "Waterfalls" by TLC.

Jeric Medina performed "Can't Help Falling In Love" by Elvis Presley.

Joan Da on her "At your Best" by Aaliyah.

Kedebon Calim on his "Yugyuan na" by Karl Roy. An energy-magnet guy. Ubos energy ko sa taong 'to. His supporters below. He has a lot of energy, a total entertainer. Pero kaya kaya niya ang mga All at Once na kantahan. Let's see how verstile he is for the next round.

Take-Off performed "Dreaming of You" by Selena. Again I dunno these guys at magaling daw silang sumayaw. Well from this performance, less movements. Maganda rin naman. Artistahin din ang mga hitsura. Magagandang mga Lalaki. 

KZ Tandingan execute the "Rehab" by Amy Winehouse. She executed the looks, the song and the dance. Alam na. Nawala boses ko sayo mam. Salamat. Pina-ingay ko lang naman ang grand theatre.

Gabriel Maturan performed "Dance with my Father" by Luther Vandross. 

Now I know who these top 9 and now turned 8 after Mang Modesto voted out. As the judges mentioned you’ll never know how hard to judge in front of these contestants. Galing. Had a great night and experienced watching live. Goodluck to KZ.
