Gerphil Flores does "Dust in the Wind"

I was planning to post another when I opened one of the emails that clutttered my inbox and clicked the link sent by a friend. Do you remember the Pinay soprano singer who stole the limelight of the one & only (so far) Asia's Got Talent last year? She's got this beautiful interpretation of a classic song.

I never thought singing could be done best in a cooking show. I have a feeling they will all suddenly cook in the the Sunday variety shows.

Frankly, these two should have an album.

GMA hit upon an original idea: pitting that very Pinoy vocal acrobatics called Birit with classical Opera ballad. They should do this on a regular basis. Goose bumps galore.

David Foster & His Two Soprano Girls: JACKIE EVANCHO & GERPHIL FLORES

In 2010, the same year two ignorant judges blocked the Pilipinas Got Talent (PGT) chances of then teenager soprano Gerphil Flores, a 10 year-old American soprano singer  made history in the American version of the show (AGT). Jackie Evancho went on to become the youngest solo artist to go platinum- yes, a soprano singer going platinum. It's good there was no clueless AGT judge who could have told her to sing a "more age-appropriate song" instead.

UPDATE (May 15, 2015): Call it coincidence but Jackie Evancho was runner-up in the 2010 America's Got Talent, same as the Runner-up position of Gerphil Flores in the Asia's Got Talent 2015. Bodes well? I'm pretty sure David Foster will follow through with his promise to her when he pushed the Golden Buzzer. Finally, we have a Philippine product with talent & looks with commercial appeal. Charice was a tough sell, she just didn't have the goods where talent was no longer enough.

STUNNINGLY IGNORANT JUDGES: A "Pangmasa" Palusot Story

This video is getting viral, and it was titled GERPHIL FLORES GETTING ROBBED IN PHILIPPINES GOT TALENT BY BIASED JUDGES. Just listening to the convoluted "opinions", "biased" is so mild a word, "ignorant" was more appropriate. How did the two clowns even become judges in the first place? How can you expect them to make the proper choice? All that incompetent judgement off-and-on camera was part of the game just because it was a "pangmasa" program anyway? Just gives you a first-hand look at the Third-World minds at work...  tsk-tsk...

UPDATE: This story really made many people angry. I took the liberty to copy, thus highlight, the first comment below, it encapsulates the cruelty of stupidity which privilege has bestowed on our poor nation: "Typical sad story of the Filipino, they have to get out of the country to get the proper recognition... because in their country the ignorant are in a position to abuse them because of their connection". Please read all the comments below, the raw nerves of a nation.
