jean kung sa akin lang… i think kahit taga saan ka man originally just as long as filipino citizen ka, makaka audition ka.. and kahit may banda ka and u sing front act, pwede ka pa rin join, after all di pa naman siguro sikat ung band nyo.. pinoy idol is looking for talent.. kaya pwede un
Hi poh sa lahat ng mga aspiring PINOY IDOL… i really don’t know if it was a 3 days audition but what I know is that it will be on this coming Thursday, Feb. 21, 2008 at exactly 10 a.m. Every one is invited basta 16 to 28 years old no matter if you are from a band or just a beginner what matter is you have the guts to compete with other and prove to the judge that you can make it…
Hope this message can help you out from your problems…

WALANG KWENTA ANG AUDITION SA SMX! KUNG ALAM KO LANG NA GANYAN DI NLANG SANA AKO SUMALI,.. KASI NDI NAMAN PALA SA MISMONG MGA HURADO AGAD ANG HARAP MO TO AUDITION MAY PAGDADAANAN KA MUNAG STAGE BAGO SA KILA JOLEN, OGIE AT UNG ISA PA! KUNG PAGA PRESCANNING.. BUT WHAT THE HELL!! MGA WALANG KWENTA DIN UNG NAGPPRESCAN! DAHIL MAY NAKAKALABAS NGA NG TV NA AMPAPANGET NG BOSES AT MGA SINTUNADO TAPOS AKO DI NKA PASOK? PWEDE BA! TIGILAN NGA! IM A SINGER IN A BAND FOR 10 YEARS! AND IVE BEEN SINGING FOR 20 YEARS NOW! THIS IS SUCH A BS!!!KALOKOHAN TOH!
AND TO ADD PA PALA NA I AM SINGING IN A SHOW BAND VARIATY AND MUSIC NAMIN SO WE CAN SING ANYTHING POP, ROCK, JAZZ, HIP-HOP! KAHIT MAPAPILITA CORALEZ PA AT RYAN CAYABYAB NA KANTA! COZ WE ARE VARIATY! AND DI KO MAINTINDIHAN BAKIT DI AKO NABIGYAN NG CHANCE TO SING IN FRONT OF THE JUDGES? IF YOU WANT YOU CAN CHECK OUT MY VIDEOS IN http://www.youtube.com/user/michelledanganan SEE IF I CAN SING OR NOT! MERON NGA JAN MGA SUPER SA SINTUNADO.. DI KO NAMAN SINASABING MAGALING AKO PERO I THINK ITS UNFAIR VERY UNFAIR TO NOT TO LET ME SING INFRONT OF THE REAL JUDGES!! DOESNT MAKE ANY SENSE AT ALL!!
SIGURO NAMAN NARINIG NYO UNG SINABI NI OGIE NA AND IMPORTANTE DITO SA CONTEST NA ITO AY LUMABAS KA NAG AUDITION ROOM NA MAY NATUTUNAN SA MGA JUDGES, EH PANO MANGYAYARI UN? KUNG MAY PA PRE SCANNING PANG NANGYAYARI?

GETS? KAYA NAIINIS AKO NUNG MAY PRE SCANNING PA AKONG NAPUNTAHAN WEH!! PARASAAN UN?
those people who don the pre scan, I guess they are not just a staff. They maybe have a knowledge on what to choose and who to give the chance on facing the judges.. hehe.. Anyway, i just forgot the lyrics when I auditioned and I saw to the woman’s face who pre scanned me that she is interested, unfortunately, I forgot the lyrics.. Wahahaha! Anyway, magtry ulit6 ako sa pampanga.. Sayang eh.. Anyone who knows if we could still try even if I was rejected at the SMX audition? Thanks!
To Joey- What happen to your audition?
Anyone who could tell they experience during the audition?
mine?wla eh.final selection n kc nung sat but i still attended the final judgement so i was able to see them all. pero di ko n hinintay mtpos kc 1pm n sya ngstart e 9 p ako andun.kunyari lng may sinuportahan ako kya ako nakapasok.pero nung una, pinapasok nla khit ung mga d p nascreen, but it seems wla n tlgng pagasa mascreen p un gmga bago n tulad ko, kya nagsialisan n lng sla.ako kunyari suporter ako ni benjamin alampayan, sya ung taga sorsogon n gustong gusto ng staff ang story kya sya lgi kinukunan ng camera. (Let’s say d sya gno magaling but his story of life made him as one in the final judging).ewan ko lng kung psok sya as finalist ng Manila audition. So for you guys, dapat Thursday p lang nsa venue n kyo. Accdg to them pa, pinabalik lng nung Friday ung mga nakapgonline regster.
More importantly, story is wt gma look for. To you Bimbo, pwede p mgaudition kahit saan accdg to the video of the judges in Showbiz Central.
Correction po. Si Letterjun Alampayan pla name nun. Iba si Benjamin Acunia. Si Benjamin din, ala Michael Jackson. Mgnda rin ang buhay, taga Bicol sya. Lagi sila hbol ng camera. D nmn msyado kglingan din pero story really matters. Si Benjamin din dhilan bkit ako nkpsok and ngkalakas ng loob kng bt ako pmasok nga.
When i was inside the hall, some of the hopefulls n andun is pinabalik lng daw ng staff that time and day. Kasi nung Thursday p sila nkpila and ngregster lng sla den pinabalik nga sla that day. So nung tnungin nla if wer ung screeniung, snbhan sya n wla n daw,S calrk nlng daw mgpnta. Inefficiency din yan pra s GMA. Sna maayos nla ang audition. Sna mgya nga nla ung s ABC n npkaprocedural.
Thanks Joey! Anyway, im still thinking if i’ll go to clark kasi baka wala rin naman mapala yung pagpunta ko dun. Anyway, about the story, how would they know if you have a good story? Theres no part on the application form where you could tell your story. I guess they are already pre-chosen by GMA. We’re not sure yet if they’re story are real or it was just the staff who told them to invent a story. Thats showbiz and we cannot tell whats real and hoax.. Haayy.. Anyway, ill keep you posted guys if i’ll go to clark so that I could share my story..
Thanks Joey!
oh well,… good story of life pala hanap ng GMA eh! bakit di sila mag pa writing contest? or manghingi nlang ng copy ng mga sumusulat sa magpakailan man tutal wala na un sa GMA ngaun diba? so wala nang gamit ung mga sulat?… hindi pala ito pinoy idol like a singing contest one noh? its a drama script writing competition!! wala talagang kwentang contest!! GMA???? U R A BIG BOOOOOOHHHHHHHHH!!!
NGA PALA BIMBO U DONT GET MY POINT ARENT YOU? WELL MY POINT IS I AM NOT HAPPY SINGING WITH THOSE PRE SCANNERS!! I WANT TO SING INFRONT OF OGIE SO I WILL KNOW WHAT THE HECK DO I HAVE TO IMPROVE TO MY SINGING! SINO BA ITONG MGA PRE SCANNERS NA ITO? E DI NAMAN SILANG KILALANG ACHIEVERS!! PWEEEEHHHH!!! MAG PA SCRIPT WRITING CONTEST NLANG SILA NOH KUNG GOOD STORY ANG HANAP NILA!! O DIKA YA BUMISITA SILA SA MALAALA MO KAYA AND GET SOME GOOD STORIES THERE! AYT? SAYANG LANG EFFORT NG LAHAT NG NAG SIPUNTAHAN DUN!!
KUNG ALAM KO LANG NAGANITO DI NALANG SANA AKO SUMALI
NAG SAYANG LANG AKO NG EFFORT AT TIME KO DITO! AT NGA PALA SA MGA MAKAKABASA MAN NITO NDI AKO NAG RARAACT NG GANITO DAHILGUSTO KONG MAGING PINOY IDOL AT SUMIKAT! NO!! AKO MAGANDA NA ANG BUHAY KO ANG GUSTO KO LANG AY MAKAKANTA INFRONT OF OGIE ALCASID KASI ALAM KONG MARUNONG SYANG MAKINIG TALAGA! NG BOSES.. DI UNG HINDI KILALANG TAONG WALA NAMAN ACHIEVEMENTS? BWISIT NA GMA! SANA SA ABC 5 NALANG ULIT TOH EH! NANG GAYA NANAMAN NA TULAD SA AMERICAN DREAMS! NA KAILANGAN NG MAGANDANG STORYA NG BUHAY! LETSHE!!
I got your point Kris.. Haha! You know what? I even got what you need to improve… Your temper and your attitude. If you have a good life, career, and professional (according to your description), you would not be a bitter. Kahit sa maerican Idol, may pre-casting sila. In order to make the show sucessful, hindi pwedeng kung anu yung nakikita mo sa TV, e yun na din ang mangyayari behind the camera. You should know that kasi on your video, It seems that you’re part of the entertainment world. Those people who pre-casts you, you don’t know them. So you didn’t know as well why they’re on that task. And they don’t even know you as well. One more thing Kris, Ogie is not a perfect singer or a the god of singing voices para mithiin mong sa kanya marinig ang mga dapat mong i-improve. He’s not even alone. Mas maraming mas magaaling na na hindi lang singer or writer, certified singing voice coach talaga.. And I could tell you now, as i’ve watched your video, your not as good as you think yourself.. Duhh!!
Sorry guys, pumatol ako dito.. hehe.. Wala lang. I just feel like I need to comment on this.. He he.. Well, I just realized that if these people na sasalang as first batch finalist of the said contest, I’m sure next year, may slot na tayo dun. Kasi even me having my own network, I’ll make sure that i’ll make my show as the talk of the town and successful.
Sa requirements pala, the most important are:
Xerox copy of ID (front and back)
Xerox copy of Birth Certificate
1 whole body picture
Application form
Parent’s consent (for 16-17yo)
Try natin ulit sa SM Clark.. Ako I’ll be doing it again, matanggap or not as an experience. Dami mo din matutunan kahit di ka humarap sa 3 official judges.
Hi Bimbo! Good morning! Anyway, what time are posting? I’m posting this at 7:37AM. I’m in the office right now. Nung ngpnta ako s smx, kumpleto n ko ng mga photocopies. Hehe… Be easy guys… Bka next year n lng ako.
Or bka mgkakaroon p ng 2nd audition dito s Manila area? How I wished…
sana po meron pa pong audition sa manila marami pa po kasing hindi pa na kakapag audition…tulad ko at ng mga classmates ko…sana po mag pa audition pa po kau sa MANILA plssss…
thnx po PINOY IDOL we love that thing…
Hi joey, oo nga sana magkaroon ng audtition pa ulit dito sa manila.. Mas masarap kung dito lang manila eh. hehe.. expect that all my comments will be posted at night cos im in graveyard shift. call-boy ako.. hehe..
anyone else who could share their experiences sa audition?
ok, bimbo i was just so pissed off… and yo DUDE! i am not asking for your opinion first and for most! whatever it is? i should not waste my time joining this competition,. hahaha!!anyway u dont know me to judge me that early man! ayt? i was just piss!!
and if u dont understand that? maybe u have to upgrade ur IQ!! hahahaha!!
hey guys! why make some trouble here? anyway, GMA is not good in making a star shine…
hello po… im benny girl
guys… gudluck po sa aten…
matalo manalo… stay proud paren…
we are still young pa … we have a lot of chances
if we try and try and try…. dont lose hope… nd lang sa iisang bagay at lugar tayo pd sumikat.. marame pa… puntahan mu un lahat… and stand like a star though its ur not,,, para lang malaman nila na u deserved to be.. kaya mo yan.. kaya natin to….do ur best… proud to be 1 only……
nah i think gma did well in making some star shine, but in this competition, i guess they are not very organized.. kasi dapat ininclude nila sa requirements and “YOU HAVE TO HAVE AN INTERESTING LIFE” AND EXPLAINS THAT TO HAVE A HIGH RATINGS FOR THIS SHOW.. hindi naman siguro pagiging slow, pero i think if u have an advertisement about a singing contest, it doesnt have anything to do with ur life story! come to think of it BIMBO! singing contest is about ur talent in singing not about ur autobiography! so people who will see ur ad will expect just being good in singing is enough. not to have an interesting life to be an additional requirement.
try to watch the judges interview in showbiz central Mr. Ogie Alcasid says “we are not looking for a book we are looking for a great singer out there to represent our country around the world” so it means autobiography is not very important.. right?
it is! because I myself witnessed it. I have encounter some of them (not really good in singing but they have a very interesting story - as if cinderella). The Writer (i guess she is the writer) told the cameraman to keep his camera to this person all the way. So I was beside this person that’s why I knew what was happening. There is also alot of interviews with this person which is to be featured on the shows premier. I just don’t know if he made it all the way to the final selection for Manila area.
if the online registration is finished will i be able to register on the auditions tom or do i have to register first online? nalilito na ako… Arghhh.. Please be kind enough to help. Nga pala, importante ba ung mga back up back up? Will you not be noticed even if you have the talent?
Kris, Kris, Kris…
Hinding hindi mo alam ang mga pangyayari sa MEdia, Showbiz, Advertizing… Walang wala kang alam kasi isang hamak na entertainer ka lang. I’ve been with the ad agancy for three years and even got a friends in media (Big network including the home of pinoy idol). Kaya wag ka magmarunong at kung ano anong walang sense at pagpapanggap na maraming alam sa nangyayari sa paligid mo ang lumalabas sa bibig mo. Ilang beses na ko nakasama dati sa kaibigan ko nung nag-papa-audition sila ng little big star ( mga panahon nila sam concepcion and the other girl na nainvite ni Ellen sa show nya sa US). At talagang makikita mo ang tunay na showbiz, sa mga bata pa lang yun. Ikaw, na wala namang ganda, hindi interesting ang personality, hindi ganung kagalin g ang boses, hinding hindi ka talaga makukuha… Naging bitter ka pa. You better watch your mouth Ms. Blmae-it-on-the-world, coz I don’t take that tone from no second rate entertainer. Ok? Thanks!
Check where your IQ went through.. You might left it at SMX.
