Harry and Gerald Santos: Spot the difference
Article posted August 04, 2005
This isn’t a battle between blood relatives. This is strictly
a singing competition. But with two beguiling Santoses in the
early slate of Pinoy Pop Superstar’s grand contenders,
we can’t help but explore the difference between the two!
Gerald Santos and Harry Santos are two unrelated teens from different
worlds brought together by their singing prowess. They bring their
unique qualities to the 2nd season of Pinoy Pop Superstar. Harry, 16
is becoming a ladies man this early thanks to his captivating Josh
Groban vocal flair while Gerald, 15, has impressed audiences with an
unprecedented score of 99% in the defending rounds of previous
episodes.
These teenage boys have striking differences which set them apart
from each other but at the same time, pull them closer to the
appreciative hearts of the listening crowd. Harry is from a well-off
family, while Gerald grew up in a lower income community. Harry is in
his college, while Gerald is in his 3rd year in high school. Harry
infatuates on young Nadine Samonte, while Gerald dreams of meeting
working mom, Carmina Villaroel. And when asked what they would do
with the Php1 million, they gave different views.
Harry says he’ll buy a house where he and his family can stay
together, while for Gerald, depositing the money first in the
bank would be ideal so that in case he loses the singing contest,
he’ll still have cash to spend on rainy days.
Although having different backgrounds, these two aspiring
singers share some similarities as well. Harry and Gerald’s love
for singing were inspired by the death of their loved ones. It
was when Harry’s beloved grandmother died that his family heard
his powerful voice. Gerald, on the other hand, couldn’t stop
thinking of his uncle who passed away too. It’s undeniable that
they are highly attached to their families and relatives. It’s
also no longer surprising that both consider building a career
in the musical world. Harry says “Gusto kong magkaroon ng
experience and mag-enjoy hangga’t kaya ko pang kumanta.”
And Gerald? “Maraming nagsasabing maganda boses ko
and gusto ko rin po talaga [kumanta].”
Harry Santos and Gerald Santos are the first two grand contenders
of GMA 7’s weekend show, Pinoy Pop Superstar Season 2. They will
compete in next year’s grand showdown. Watch the country’s
fresh singing talents every Saturday, after ’Wag Kukurap.
