DANCE group XB Gensan of General Santos City came back from elimination to notch a dramatic win in “Showtime the Finals” at the Ynares Sports Center in Antipolo.

Just a day after winning the wild card round of the hit talent- variety show, the 13-member dance crew gave a hair-raising and heart-thumping performance that brought the “madlang pipol” and the judges to their feet. With a score of 9.875, XB Gensan won a close fight with crowd favorite Philippine Islands Assassin (9.7) of Marikina City, and fellow wild card winner Boys Unlimited (9.625) of Pangasinan. XB Gensan’s come-from-behind win was the perfect ending for “Showtime’s” ultimate competition, which featured the surprise return of 39 out of the 73 guest judges in the show’s nine months on air including Gladys Reyes, Andrew E, Alessandra de Rossi, Jon Avila and Jhong Hilario.

Viewers can expect twice the entertainment and fun in the top-rating program’s second season. Find out what’s new in “Showtime” with hosts Vhong Navarro, Anne Curtis, Kim Atienza, Jugs, Teddy and resident judge Vice Ganda!
