lose weight, magkakaitsura ka
July 23rd, 2008 at 9:24 pm
dont feel bad kung hindi ka gusto ng audience. For me, you’re the best. Magaling ka at napakanatural ng boses mo. ang galing mo pa magsayaw. I’m your #1 fan. Hindi ka naman mayabang. I love you!
July 23rd, 2008 at 9:35 pm
I’m already 51 years old. Nanonood lang ako ng PDA every night just to see you. I believe in you. You’re very talented! Dont stop singing and acting kahit wala ka na sa Academy. Good luck in all your endeavors:)

ay naku, ano ba naman itong PDA, popularity contest ba ito ng mga gwapo, maganda o sexy? for me what is more important, tingnan kung total performer ang scholar at may good attitude sa loob ng academy. ikaw yun, inaki, you’re a total performer! sayang, hindi yun ang nakikita ng fans kundi ang physical appearance ng isang scholar. Hindi ka kasing gwapo nina Van or Chivas pero you look clean kahit medyo chubby ka. Di ba sabi ni bea you smell good? at hindi ka baduy. halatang-halata na u come from a good family.
July 28th, 2008 at 11:41 pm
i like u a lot .. keep up the good work!
July 28th, 2008 at 11:42 pm
i hope to see you somewhere when you leave the PBB house…
July 28th, 2008 at 11:43 pm
you have a very nice voice…

this guy’s got talent…hindi siya mayabang e confident lang siya, which is not a bad thing but a good thing..he knows his stuff and he’s not stuck to one genre unlike miguel wherein everything is like an opera song..even if he doesnt win this guy will definetely be a star in his own right.

hi Inaki. I like you so much. You lost so much weight na kaya you look soooo gwapo. I also like your style when you sing, hindi common. I also like your smile, and your eyes are smiling too when you smile. You’re also so funny. I admire you because you know how to cook. You’re Mom raised you well. You’re so precious. I hope to meet you in person. BTW, I’m already old. I’m already 51 years old. Good luck to you, iho.

hi Inaki.Your performance in the 8th Gala Night was the best. What Mr. Jim Paredes told you was indeed correct. Your adlib was very good. Pls sing more jazz songs. That genre is good for your style. You sound cool when you sing jazz songs. For me, you’re the winner.
August 10th, 2008 at 11:59 pm
You’re so creative. Dapat ikaw ang maging grand winner. Kung baga sa estudyante outside the academy, ikaw yung tinatawag na hindi bookish. You’re intelligent and street smart. Excellent ang musicality and performance mo
