Presenting… CELEBRITY DUETS! Subtitled: jobs for the jobless celebrities.
SERIOUSLY. Seriously. Seriously?!! Please tell me you’re kidding me. Please. Tell. Me.
Fine. May I remind that I am not to be kidded around with. But this has got to be one of the most, uh, what’s the word? Pathetic? Digusting? Ambitious? For the second time I’m at a loss for words. Nothing can do justice to this madness!
Maybe Tessa Prieto counts as an appropriate description? Gaahh! Just watch.
It’s a show with an apparent Identity Crisis. Is it a talent search? A performance show? Or a comedy sitcom? Looks like it’s all rolled into one…big pile of mess!
I’ve heard of balladeers. I’ve heard of divas (not of the Malu kind). I’ve heard of rock stars. But I have not heard of a Tessa Prieto-Valdez. No, not at all.
I was actually expecting her to give a wonderful performance that night, but the moment she opened her mouth, I skidded around the sofa looking for the damn remote control, already panicking because I couldn’t bear to hear the shrill tone of her voice determined to kill a koala a gazillion miles away.
Without waiting for the other contestants to do their thing on stage, I switched to another channel. Brrr. Gave me the creeps.
Note to self: NEVER watch that show again. EVER.

hehehe…to each his own I guess. I actually like this show. It kinda gives me a sadistic kind of pleasure to see these socialites/celebrities struggle through their song numbers.
and not all of them are talent-less. Wyngard (the talent manager) has a really good voice. So does Frederick Peralta (who got booted out last ep unfortunately) and Dr. Hayden Kho (Vicky Belo’s beau). I guess it was just your luck that you happened on Tessa.

@hazel Naabutan ko din si Dr. Calayan, medyo okay din, pero nilipat ko kaagad, haha. But Tessa? Puhleeze! Somebody throw tomatoes at her!! Grabe. First time ko nanood. At na-hype pako dun sa interview before she performed, na rockstar-rockstar-an daw talaga ang dating nya. Imagine my surprise upon hearing her sing. Had kitchie not been there to catch her, she would’ve died of tomato-bashing right then and there. LOL. Sama ko! Haha.

The woman can’t sing, but she’s entertaining with a capital E. Betcha bite a chip she’ll be in the finals with Hayden Kho.

@ganns hahaha that is true. And in this text-crazy country who loves everything out of the ordinary, I won’t even begin to contend your proposition. It’s unthinkable if she won’t be in the finals, like for some moment the Filipinos had a sudden realization of the truth. LOL.
