72 Celebrity Look-Alikes Battle For Ultimate Kalokalike Title In "It's Showtime"
Saturday, August 24, 2013
Seventy-two look-alikes of local and international celebrities will come together and battle in the grandest and brightest tournament of Kalokalikes in ABS-CBN's noontime show "It's Showtime" beginning Monday (August 26).
"Kalokalike Level Up Face 2" features the contestants at their best, wildest, and most improved impersonation of stars, and will be held over a course of four weeks from August 26 to September 20.
Each day, a group of Kalokalikes will face off to get a slot in the much-awaited grand finals on September 21 and will have the chance to be crowned as the Ultimate Kalokalike to win P300,000.
The first runner-up and second runner-up will bring home P200,000 and P100,000, respectively, while two additional runners-up will also be given cash prizes. Other stand-out contestants will also be given special awards.
The look-alike contest of "It's Showtime" became so popular among viewers and netizens that "Kalokalike Face 2" was launched immediately after its first run.
For his striking resemblance to actor Christopher de Leon, impersonator Jonathan Garcia was named as the Ultimate Kalokalike last June 1 on ABS-CBN’s It’s Showtime’s look-alike contest grand finals.
Aside from bearing a close physical resemblance to the veteran actor for which he also won the special Picture Frame Award, Jonathan clinched the title after showing off his acting chops in the competition’s talent portion.
As the Ultimate Kalokalike, Jonathan brought home P300,000 and a special celebrity treatment package. He was also awarded the BFF Award, the contest’s equivalent for Mr. Congeniality, for being voted by his co-finalists as the friendliest in the bunch.
Sherylene Castor, Kalokalike of Jinkee Pacquaio, was declared the first runner-up and won P200,000, while Learsi Gomez, Kalokalike of Julia Montes, was named second runner-up with P100,000.
The Top Five Kalokalikes’ Bottom Two placers were international recording artist Adele and Kapuso host-actor Joey de Leon, who both won P50,000.
Stay tuned to "It's Showtime," hosted by Anne Curtis, Vice Ganda, Vhong Navarro, Billy Crawford, Karylle, Kuya Kim Atienza, Teddy Corpuz, Jugs Jugueta, Jhong Hilario, Ryan Bang, Coleen Garcia, at Eric'Eruption'Tai, at 12:30 PM and on Saturdays at 12NN on ABS-CBN.
