ABS-CBN’s Tawag ng Tanghalan sa Showtime 3rd quarter semi-final performances on October 4, looked promising for all but one contestant. Christopher ‘JKris’ Rodrigueza, sang Brian Mcknight’s “One Last Cry.” A few seconds after Christopher sang, he suddenly coughed and turned his back against the audience to relieve himself. Christopher wasn’t able to finish his performance and was automatically eliminated from the show.
