    i remember si geoff ay talunan sa PDA before.hehe

  • chic o’clock na!

    di ba si Geoff Taylor ung talunan sa PDA Season 1 ng ABS-CBN noong 2006? Hmm, maging next big star na nga kaya siya sa Kapuso? Let’s see how GMA 7 will build up Geoff. As I see him is puro pa-cute lang ang alam niyan. Napansin ko na in this search eh yung mga finalists nila eh is may mga mukha na (except for Camille Cortez) di tulad nila Jonalyn Viray, Maricris Garcia, Gerald Santos, etc. etc. eh … wag na lang, akin na lang yun hehe…

  • Alex

    well francheska is deserve to be the next big star winner, talented na may star quality pa c geoff ay ok na din kc magaling cya kumanta pero mas ok sna kung c jay or c alex kc they both has a look a like in showbiz c jay may pagkahawig kay jay manalo c alex dennis trillio pero lamang c alex kay dennis dahil maganda ang heigth nya,pero sna khit di winner yong 2 guy ay wag pakawalan ng GMA 7 kunin ng artist center Ma’m Ida Ynares pwedeng pang laban ang 2 guy na yon artistang artista mahasa lang sa acting the next big star na cla.

  • http://yahoo maricel

    sa nagsasabing galing pda si geoff okey lang kung di siya nanalo doon, siguro mas nag-improve siya ngayon at sayang nga di siya nanalo sa pda kasi guapo at mahusay naman siya. kaya ngayon siya ang grandwinner dapat ipakita nya karapatdapat siya.
