Next on stage was Rufino ‘Lucky’ Robles from Baclaran. Since he is now appointed by his father as the next leader or breadwinner of the family, he sang “Leader of the Band” of course dedicated to his parents who were in the studio during his performance. His performance was very challenging because of the songs high pitch to which Vice Ganda likened him from being Richard Poon to Jed Madela. Louie couldn’t help but shed a tear because of his parents. Judge Louie Ocampo said technically Lucky was good and further said, “If I had more than two thumbs ill give you more than two thumbs up.”
