Jovit Baldivino, 16, a born Batangueno, took home the first Pilipinos Got Talent (PGT) grand winner title held at Araneta Coliseum, Cubao.

Jovit vested the other 11 grand finalists from around the archipelago getting 48.81% or almost half of the total votes.

Jovit was a just a poor siomai vendor before he joined PGT. Not anymore, because along with the title, he won 2 million pesos.

“Gusto ko pong matulungan yung mga kapatid ko, yung pamilya ko,” Jovit answered when Kris Aquino asked him what he asks for to ABS-CBN and to the Filipino people.

From thousands of talented Pinoy who auditioned, the 36 semi-finalists were deduced to 12. Each of the twelve grand competitors was assigned to a group to form unique production numbers.

Velasco Brothers and Baguio Metamorphosis joined Jovit Baldivino in the top three. The two received 100,000 pesos each while the other nine finalists got 50,000 pesos each.

Luis Manzano and Iya Villania hosted the grand competition. Joining them were of course the judges, Kris Aquino, Ai-ai delas Alas and FMG.

Present in the event were ABS-CBN heads lead by Miss Cory Vidanes.
