sue ellen (igma.tv)
Sue Ellen, the 17 year old singer from Iloilo City, got eliminated from the competition tonight. She's one of those who are almost always in the bottom group but remained safe, until tonight. It was quite obvious that the three judges want her out of the competition since the first week of the gala performance. The three always agree with the results everytime Sue Ellen is in the bottom group. Wyngard even went far tonight by saying that some of the contestants who are still in the competition don't deserve to be there anymore, and some of the contestants already eliminated don't deserve the elimination.
The contestants were divided into two groups, the left side (of host Raymond Gutierrez) and the right side. The ones called to be in the left are Toffer, Sue, Kid and Penelope. The right side group composed of Jayann, Warren, Gretchen and Daryl. Ram was the last to be called but Raymond Gutierrez let Ram decide which group to join. Ram chose to join the contestants at the right side of Raymond. And as it was, he chose the "right" group because they were the ones safe.
Toffer, Sue, Kid and Penelope composed the bottom group but Kid and Toffer were immediately declared safe. And after a very tenseful moment (and commercial break), the result was announced.
Sue was eliminated after the judges liked her performance. Perhaps her fans didn't give their full support thinking that she'd be okay. The judges praised her, after all.
Sue was among my favorites (the other one is Robby). I don't even like the jury's favorite Ram Chaves who performs and sings so much like Bamboo. His last performance of Regine Velasquez's Tuwing Umuulan was so praised by the judges because (as they say) Ram owned the song. Where were these judges when the Eraserheads version of the song was all over the radio?
If there's anything so cool with tonight's show, it was the opening number of Regine Velasquez with the Lucky 9 singing Follow the Sun.
The Jaya Ramsey week is up next.
