July 8 is a Sunday. For those who have been looking for me yesterday, here’s the answer of my whereabouts. I’ve attended a  series of events in Quezon City, particularly at the GMA Network. Unfortunately, the event was scheduled on a Sunday and I felt saddened for my absence in other important activities.

July 8 marks a milestone in the history of GMA’s artista search, The Battle for the Big Artista Break, because after several weeks of scouring the country for potential stars, the five mentors in the search – Roderick Paulate, Gina Alajar, Jolina Magdangal, Ricky Davao and Philip Salvador – has finally chosen their four (for each mentor) proteges from among those who auditioned in designated audition locations all over the country and from those who auditioned online via GMA Network Protege.

Protege, the most-awaited show, will start on August 5. Together with other bloggers, I had the chance to interview one of the mentors, Gina Alajar. She shared several behind-the-scenes preparations for the biggest artist search in the Philippines spearheaded by GMA Network. The talented actress also mentioned her confidence that her chosen proteges will become big stars in the entertainment industry.
