May napili ka na bang magiging Final V mo para sa judgment day ng StarStruck V? We asked the Survivor 6 what they think of this new twist, kung saan everyone will pick their own Final V, and why fans should include them in their list. Text by Jason John Lim. Photos by Naomi V. Pitargue.

starsFebruary 7 was another pre-determined non-elimination night. Instead, Dennis Trillo and Carla Abellana announced that the voting will change for the last elimination night of StarStruck V to be held this coming February 14—through My5. Araw man ito ng mga puso, pero for sure may isang puso na siguradong madudurog sa huling elimination night.

Pero last night, everyone was all smile pa rin because they will all spend one more week together as the Survivor 6.

Inamin ni Nina Kodaka na nagulat siya sa pag-declare ng non-elimination night. Though, kinuwento rin niya na she thought sila ni Sarah Lahbati ang nasa safe group! "Nung nandoon ako sa side tapos dumating si Sarah, parang 'ay, baka kami 'yung hindi bottom group.' E dumating si Rocco [Nacino]. Parang ganito 'yung nangyari nung last time na na-bottom three ako e."

And if before, Nina has appealed to people that she wants to win the competition, may panibagong level na ng dahilan si Nina kung bakit ayaw pa niyang ma-eliminate ngayon. "Ayaw kong matanggal kasi gusto ko makasama pa rin sila."

"Ito 'yung pangarap ko," Nina says of her StarStruck journey. Pero, she also says, hindi na competition ang tingin niya sa StarStruck. And if she gets into the Final V, she says it would be like a gift for her "na magkakasama pa rin kami. Two weeks pa. Gusto ko pa silang makasama."

"Ayaw ko nang matapos pa 'to."

Si Rocco naman, nagulat sa announcement of My5. "It's a very unique way of getting the Final V," ika nga niya. "I hope maisama ako ng mga tao sa mga lists ng Final V nila; and I'm praying talaga."

This survivor knows na talent continues to play a big part in the competition, kaya naman he reveals that he plans on wowing the crowd again come Sunday. "Kakaibang Rocco na naman ang makikita nila—siguradong magugulat sila sa gagawin ko."

At sa issue na siya raw ang itinuturo ng Council na lumalaki ang ulo, sinabi ni Rocco sa amin that he doesn't know kung siya nga ang tinutukoy ng Council. "Pero para sa akin, ang gagawin ko: iisipin ko na ako ‘yun."

But Rocco hopes na hindi nga siya ang tinutukoy ng Council, "but starting tonight, I'll keep [what they said] in mind." Kuwento niya na ayaw daw niya ang ganoong ugali, kaya naman he will start checking himself kung nagbabago na nga ba ang ugali niya. "Yun 'yung sisira ng career ko, so I'm thankful na rin na kung ako po talaga ‘yun, nasabi na nila, para magawan ko ng paraan."

starsSi Sarah, na-shock din. "Hindi ko alam kung anong word 'yung gagamitin ko para sa emosyon [na naramdaman ko]: na-shock ako, kinabahan ako, na-sad ako, nasiyahan ako—lahat ng emosyon!"

Admittedly, nangibabaw ang tuwa for Sarah that she be given another chance and one more week, to prove herself. "Siguro paulit-ulit ko nang sinasabi [na] ibibigay ko na 'yung best ko, pero ito na talaga 'yung week na magse-seryoso na talaga ako."

Next Sunday, binanggit na nina Dennis at Carla that they will announce the second part of Factor V—the same factor that Dingdong Dantes himself mentioned in the primer of StarStruck V last November: it is something that has already come into play, day one pa lang ng competition.

Bilang isang contestant who has been there since Day One, iGMA.tv asked Sarah kung may clue ba siya or theory as to what this particular twist is. "I am clueless," ang sinagot ni Sarah. She mentioned na inisip raw niya na baka wild card ito, pero because only two weeks are left before the Final Judgment, "inisip ko, maybe hindi rin wild card. So clueless talaga ako.

"Abangan na lang natin sa Sunday."

The first ones saved

Pre-determined non-elimination night man ang February 7 live episode ng StarStruck V, drama was still drummed up by deeming three survivors safe before announcing that no one would be eliminated. They were: Steven Silva, Diva Montelaba and Enzo Pineda.

Si Enzo, akala raw safe talaga siya.

"I know na this week, lalo na sa mga mentors, I needed to prove myself to them." Dahil sa mga comments na ibinigay nila sa kanya Enzo was driven to prove na he does deserve to be in the Final Judgment. "I want to show them that I can really do better—that I can step up. 'yung hunger na sinasabi nila, 'yung hunger na gusto kong gumaling—nandoon."

Thankful si Enzo sa mga sinabi ng mentors sa kanya. "It's not a bad thing," he surmised. "Dahil sobrang na-motivate po ako. Sobrang thankful po ako sa mentors, kay God—sa lahat. Pinu-push talaga ako."

Si Diva, hindi takot sa My5 twist. "Okay naman siya," she began. "[Pero] naniniwala ako, mas effective pa rin 'yung talent." Alam ni Diva na importante rin ang votes, after all, na-experience na niya ang mapasama sa bottom group. Pero in the end, Diva told us "I still believe na kung para sa akin 'to, para sa akin 'to."

Regarding the non-elimination night naman, Diva is just happy. "Saya kasi walang nawala. Ganoon pa rin: kami-kami pa rin."

At si Steven, handa na daw dapat siya to say goodbye to someone—or even to everyone. "Kasi akala ko may isang taong matatanggal—that one person would go." Pero even though no one was eliminated, Steven said "feeling ko, ang lahat ng survivors hindi safe. No one's safe. Kasi you have to show that you deserve to be here."

Lalo na ngayon, with the My5 twist.

stars"Alam ko talaga, this week, I really have to exert myself, really do my best." Sa course ng StarStruck V, marami na ang nagsabi na si Steven ang least deserving na maiwan. Kaya ngayon, gusto niya silang i-prove na mali. "Alam ko, I can keep doing more. Talagang mas kailangan kong mag-improve sa lahat. I still want to do better—keep doing better."

At talagang sineseryoso na ito ngayon ni Steven—especially sa kanyang Tagalog-speaking skills. "Sa start ng StarStruck, talagang wala akong alam na Tagalog. As in. Pero ngayon, meron na. I'm still learning, but I'm happy kasi I'm really improving."

"But I know there's a lot more to do."

And that last statement from Steven goes for everyone as well. There's a lot more to do sa huling dalawang linggo ng StarStruck V.

    i've seen the star struck5 everyday and even the elimination night. I was so suprised that one of the council really facing that they have favorites among the final 6. The council should be fare on all their judgment. They should give their scores based on the performances of the final 6 and not because they don't want that person to win.. Even the person are really doing their very best and improve their performances every night. Was that person was really credible to judge..?? Giving low score to the person deserving to get a higher score.. I know all of you know that council..be shame to your self...

    Sarah and Rocco the ULTIMATE SURVIVORS!!!

    My 5 are Sarah, Rocco, Diva, Nina and Enzo. They are all deserving and they proved already many times. I like Steven, but he does not show any improvement. Even in singing, which his forte, still cannot sing without any big flaws. Hope Sarah and Rocco will be the ULTIMATE SURVIVORS, cause they are both talented and good looking.
