Jovit Baldivino in Semi-finals of Pilipinas Got Talent

On May 1, 2010, in TV, by mylifejoys

When we talk of Pilipinas Got Talent the name of Jovit Baldivino will surely get into mind. Pilipinas Got Talent (PGT) is a Philippine franchise of the Got Talent show popularized in Britain and United States,

The first few weeks that the show has been aired, my personal belief is that Jovit Baldivino’s act was a turning point to catch audience into this ABS-CBN talent contest. Who knows which created which. If the sixteen year-old teen created a fan base for PGT or if Jovit was created by the show. The truth is… both of them works together that made Filipinos go crazy over this show.

Jovit’s audition piece was a rendition of “Faithfully,” popularized by Journey with another Filipino artist at the lead vocals, Ariel Pineda. YouTube videos of this audition piece has reached 3-million views and Facebook fans has created fan pages for this talent from Batangas.

Today, he has again captured the hearts of many audiences that within minutes, his semi-finals performance was in YouTube and Facebook already. His rendition of “Carrie” had the audience and all of the judges – Kris Aquino, Ai-Ai Delas Alas and Freddie Garcia, on a standing ovation.
