The top 16 are mostly from Metro Manila. Only two got in from the Visayas, also two from Central Luzon and one from CALABARZON.

They are (in alphabetical order) Akihiro Blanco (Pasig), Alberto Bruno (Marikina), Benjo Leoncio (Cebu), Brent Manzano (Quezon City), Chanel Morales (Bacolod), Chris Leonardo (Laguna), Jon Orlando (Quezon City), Julia Quisumbing (Makati), Malak So Shdifat (Manila), Mark Neumann (Quezon City), Marvelous Alejo (Valenzuela), Nicole Estrada (Pasig), Shaira Mae (Las PiƱas), Sophie Albert (Mandaluyong), Stephanie Rowe (Pampanga), and Vin Abrenica (Pampanga).

Of course, we now all know that Vin is the brother of Kapuso hunk Aljur Abrenica. We can say that he has an edge because his brother’s fans will support him. But then, of course, we’ll never know.

All of the top 16 are packed with good looks. And all 16 of them are now official talents of the Kapatid network. They will be honed and trained at the Asian Academy of Television Arts under the mentorship of entertainment industry’s most respected figures like Joel Lamangan for acting, Louie Ocampo for music, and Georcelle Dapat-Sy for dance. Personality development and English proficiency are also included in their training.

Hosted by Marvin Agustin (adviser) and Cesar Montano (live exam presentor), don’t forget to watch Artista Academy from Monday to Saturday, after Wil Time Bigtime, on TV5.
