The X Factor Philippines first live show and elimination this weekend Aug.4-5!




The country’s biggest musical event of the year “The X Factor Philippines” recently unveiled its 12 finalists who will compete in the much-awaited live shows beginning this Saturday (Aug 4) and face the fifth and most critical judge in the competition— the viewing public.
Judge-mentor Martin Nievera, together with international singing sensation Arnel Pineda as his chosen guest celebrity judge, picked student Gabriel Anciano, college graduate Jeric Medina, and another student, Kedebon Colim, to represent the Boys (solo male performers 16-25 yrs old).
Freelance singer Allen Sta. Maria, dive guide Jerrianne Templo, and band vocalist KZ Tandingan, on the other hand, will represent the Girls (solo female performers 16-25 yrs old) as chosen by their judge-mentor Charice with the help of her guest celebrity judge and fellow Pinay pride Cheesa, who recently became a finalist in the hit US singing competition “The Voice.”
In the Over 25s category (solo performers 26 yrs old and above), judge-mentor Pilita Corrales, together with guest celebrity judge Rico J. Puno, put through musician Joan Da, freelance singer Mark Mabasa, and former security officer Modesto Taran to advance to the final round.
The Groups (16 yrs old and above) category composed of all-male quartet Daddy’s Home, boyband Take Off, and all girl group Lucky Girls wouldn’t be left behind as they were chosen by their judge-mentor Gary Valenciano with the help of guest celebrity judge and world champion Jed Madela.
The final 12 will battle it out in the live shows starting Saturday (Aug 4) at the PAGCOR Grand Theater inParanaquewhere they will sing various movie theme songs.
Their future now lies in the hands of the public who will decide via text vote who among them should stay in the competition and who among them shall leave. The finalist with the lowest number of overnight text votes will be booted off in the show.
Whose ‘x factor’ will shine best and who will be exed out of the competition?  Who among the judge-mentors will say goodbye to one of their three chosen finalists by Sunday?
