Watch out for the new season of “TNT” on Monday…
OST Dreamers duo Christian Tibayan and Arvery Lagoring were finally crowned the new grand champions of “TNT Duets 2” after their second attempt at the Huling Tapatan finals last Saturday (Jan.17).
The former “TNT School Showdown” grand finalists earned the highest combined judges’ score of 99.6%, besting fellow duos JezzIan—Ian Manibale and Jezza Quiogue—who scored 95.6%, and PangmalaCousins—JR Oclarit and Mark Justo—with 95.4%.
The Huling Tapatan hurados, composed of Erik Santos, Ogie Alcasid, Jonathan Manalo, Nyoy Volante, Darren, Sofronio Vasquez, Kyla, Bituin Escalante, JM Yosures, and Louie Ocampo, gave a standing ovation to Christian and Arvery’s final-round performance, where they delivered a powerful rendition of Jolina Magdangal’s hit single “Kapag Ako Ay Nagmahal.”
Their victory did not come easy, as JezzIan impressed with their emotional take on “You’ll Be Safe Here,” while PangmalaCousins showcased their vocal strength with “All My Life” by K-Ci & JoJo.
As the new grand champions, Christian and Arvery take home ₱500,000, an ABS-CBN Music recording contract, a Star Magic management contract, and a special trophy designed by Toym Imao. JezzIan received ₱200,000, while PangmalaCousins won ₱100,000.
The competition was equally intense during the first round of Huling Tapatan, where duos Dugong Bughaw (Miah and Eunice), In 2 U (Isay and Nowi), and TNT Bestmates (Thor and Pia) gave standout performances to advance to the next round. Each duo received ₱50,000.
From the start of the competition, the hashtag #TNTDuets2AngHulingTapatan quickly claimed the top spot on X, reflecting the show’s strong online buzz. The episode also trended worldwide, securing the seventh spot globally.
