Jon Orlando out of Artista Academy

MANILA, Philippines - Filipino-Italian Jon Orlando (photo) was the second student to be kicked out of Artista Academy, following the elimination of Chris Leonardo last week.

Jon failed to level up in Saturday’s Live Exam, where he landed at the bottom five with Brent Manzano, Nicole Estrada, Julia Quisumbing and Marvelous Alejo.

After the students’ grades from the Asian Academy of Television Arts (AATA) and the text votes were factored in, Jon received the lowest points for the week, making him the second kick-out of TV5’s reality-based artista search.

With Jon and Chris out of the competition, the remaining 14 students who are focused on winning the P20M total prizes are Akihiro Blanco, Alberto Bruno, Benjo Leoncio, Brent Manzano, Chanel Morales, Julia Quisumbing, Malak So Shdifat, Mark Neumann, Marvelous Alejo, Nicole Estrada, Shaira Mae, Sophie Albert, Stephanie Rowe and Vin Abrenica.

To vote for the student you want to save from expulsion, key in AA <first name of student> and send to 5656.

Artista Academy airs weeknights at 9 p.m. and Saturdays at 8:30 p.m.
