MANILA, Philippines - There will be barking, skipping and dancing as Red the charming Poodle, Samboy the tough Aspin, and Boomboom the zesty pup try to outclass each other to win the title of the first-ever “ZOOperstar.” The grand prize winner gets P30,000. The grand finals of ZOOperstars will air tomorrow, 9:30 a.m. on GMA 7.
Red has charmed everyone with his dance numbers, ranging from the crowd favorite Nobody But You to the classic Pearly Shells. Aside from his signature struts, Red is set to take cuteness to a higher level by gracefully frisking through hoops and skipping ropes. With this adorable mishmash of skills, the fans of the cute pooch would not be able to resist cuddling him all the more!
Samboy, the Asong Pinoy (Aspin) has corrected the misconception that native dogs are mere second-rates to purebreds through his impressive display of strength, wit and obedience. In more ways than one, he has successfully taught viewers to trample the victimizing askal mentality. Proudly representing native dogs up to the final battle, Samboy will execute his master’s orders, which are articulated in Filipino and put his physical vigor to the test by walking a thin wire!
Boomboom, the pup, has always been a breath of fresh air. Aside from his fetching name, he never fails to surprise viewers with a hilarious combination of tricks. For the last hoorah, Boomboom will teach audiences how to jump backward and dance the tinikling, compelling everyone to cheer boom-boom-boom.
Also gracing the grand finals are Starstruck V winners Steven Silva, Enzo Pineda and Rocco Nacino. Hosts Julian Trono and Sabrina Man will join them in dancing to Usher’s OMG and host Gelli De Belen will ask them about their latest gigs.
