He's one of the best when it comes to music--"The Maestro" Ryan Cayabyab is now the newest headmaster of ABS-CBN's reality show "Philippine Dream Academy (PDA) Season 2."
In an interview with abs-cbnNEWS.com, Cayabyab--also known as Mr. C--said that after six years of working in the corporate world, he is now back in doing his passion -- music and teaching.
"This is an important show, PDA is a very important show and ako masaya ako, it's an honor for me to be part of the show. Sorry I was out for six years I'd been doing corporate work; tamang-tama pagkatapos noon ito si Lauren saying 'we want you in PDA if it's okay?' sabi ko sure," Cayabyab said.
Cayabyab replaced PDA's Season 1 headmaster Jim Paredes and as the newest head of the Academy, the former said audiences should expect so many changes in the academy. He will definitely give lessons that will surely mold the scholars' talents and personalities.
Pinoy Dream Academy (also known as PDA)Slogan: Ang drama sa likod ng pangarap (The drama behind dreams, in Filipino), is the Philippine version of Endemol's Star Academy. The format is similar to Big Brother, where 16, later 20, finalists (billed as "scholars" throughout the series) will live inside the Academy for four months and will be trained by guest teachers to be multimedia performers. Activities in the Academy will be monitored 24/7 by the headmaster.
