ABS-CBN's "Pilipinas Got Talent" (PGT) Season 2 has named its 7th and 8th grand finalists.Singer John Micheal Narag led the nationwide text votes with 31.85%, automatically securing him a slot in the show's finale.
PGT's judges Freddie Garcia, Ai Ai delas Alas and Kris Aquino, had to choose between all-male dance group "Filogram" and band "Next Generation" who ranked 2nd (27.09%) and 3rd (22.04%) in text votes, respectively.
The show's judges in the end chose "Filogram" to advance to the grand finals.
"Alam mo napakahirap nitong desisyon na gagawin namin. I mean it's always difficult to choose between two very good performers," Garcia said.
"Tama si Boss, magagaling yung mga bata at magagaling din ang Filogram," delas Alas added.
For Aquino, she congratulated Filogram and gave her unsolicited advise to "Next Generation."
"Sana Next Generation, 'wag kayong mawalan ng pag-asa. Season 3 right after, immediately after our Grand Finals, we're looking forward na makita kayo sa season 3. Filogram, congratulations," Aquino said.
The PGT will be naming its last 4 finalists in the coming weeks.
