Shelly Hipolito Of Nueva Ecija Eliminated From 'Protege' Last Sunday

THE REMAINING nine protégés performed with Kapuso stars like Mark Herras, Aljur Abrenica, Rocco Nacino, Kris Bernal, Alden Richards, Louise de los Reyes, Julie Ann San Jose and Barbie Forteza in last Sunday’s elimination night at “Protege: The Battle for the Big Artista Break”. Judge Cherie Gil said she wouldn't be surprised if proteges Mikoy Morales, Elle Ramirez and Ruru Madrid would eventually be on the top 3 because of their appeal and talent. She added that Elle is already "made” as a star, because of her consistently remakable performances in the past weeks.

In the end, those in the bottom group were Bryan Benedict, Jhaps de Luna and Shelly Hipolito, but it was Nueva Ecija Kikay Babe Shelly who got the axe and told to say goodbye. She’s the protégé of mentor Ricky Davao.
