Mark Mabasa was eliminated by a deadlock where his vote is only 3.72% compare to Take Off’s 3.90%. Mark is from Pilita Corales Over 25s Category while TakeOff is from Gary Valenciano’s Group Category. In the Survival Showdown TakeOff sings Secondhand Serenade’s Fall For You while Mark Mabasa did James Ingram’s There’s No Easy Way. The X-Factor Philippines opened viewers vote when Martin Nievera voted to eliminate Take Off while Charice voted against Mark Mabasa.

Maria and KZ Tandingan from Charice’ Girls Category, and TakeOff, A.K.A. Jam, and Daddy’s Home of Gary Valenciano’s Group Category.

Less with one contender, the competition gets tougher as the The X-Factor Philippines Final 10 will be facing another challenge that will happen next week with a new theme and showdown where they will be needing the support of the viewers via text and online vote and later their judges if ever they will be on the bottom 2 for the Survival Showdown.
The X-Factor Philippines is hosted by KC Concepcion and airs on ABS-CBN every Saturday after Maalaala Mo Kaya for the Performance Night and Sunday after Sarah G Live for the Results Night.
