Surprise also hit me when Liezel Garcia came down as fourth placer. I was anticipating her to bag the third place, but Miguel Mendoza instead took it home. Liezel was a consistent Star Scholar, what with her unique and crystal clear voice, but I must say that her attitude does not fit a Grand winner. Despite her weekly achievement, she did not display a hint of confidence with her talent, and never believed in her capability. How many times did she doubt what she can do about her musical talent? While Miguel on the one hand, had showed little of that attitude. He has always been a gentleman all throughout, and worked with determination - probably the most reason why he won the hearts of many. So, congratulations to Miguel too for I knew he deserved it since he had worked hard from the beginning until the end of the scholarship program.
About the Grand Winner, I must admit that there was a strong contention between Bugoy and the Grand Dreamer PDA Winner, Laarni from Sultan Kudarat. As disappointed as I was at the recent turnout, I want to congratulate this provincial lass who dreamed big and made it big tonight. I knew she deserved it. Notwithstanding the many times how she showed her weakness, she rose with a vengeance, worked very hard (an understatement at that), and gave every scholar, including Bugoy and Liezel, a run for their money. It was a touching moment to see her broke down while singing her piece, Manalig Ka. And even a moving although amusing scene seeing her wailing while receiving her prizes.
This time rags-to-riches story did not appeal to the sympathy of the public, huh? Was it the endless wailing drama? Just asking;). Made me remember Sandara Park (don't you?), another wailing lass who joined and won second during the first Star Circle Quest season, also from ABS-CBN network.
Anyway, here are the top 6 winners in order of PDA Season 2 with vote percentage results:
1. Laarni Losala - 35.21%
2. Bugoy Drilon - 29.70%
3. Miguel Mendoza - 13.69%
4. Liezel Garcia - 13.36
5. Van Roxas - 6.06%
6. Cris Pastor - 1.97%
Again, congratulations to all the Grand Dreamers! Kudos!
i still want bugoy to win..well if that's the case that laarni won, congrats... I'm so proud of you bugoy...more powers bugoy...
