"Pinoy Dream Academy Season 2" ex-scholar Bugoy Drilon cleared speculations that he was disappointed that he landed as the Second Star Dreamer in ABS-CBN's hit reality contest.

The Farmer's Son, Bugoy said that his statement "Kahit hindi man ako ang Grand Star Dreamer sa puso ko Grand Star Dreamer pa din ako," was just misinterpreted.

"Lahat naman po kasi kami ay Grand Star Dreamer. Sa puso ko ay Grand Star Dreamer ako. Yung kapatid kong si Laarni ay Grand Star Dreamer. Lahat kami ay Grand Star Dreamer... Kahit hindi ako Grand Star Dreamer ay Grand Star Dreamer ako kasi narinig ng tao ang boses ko doon palang," explained Bugoy.

Bugoy said that he is not frustrated with the result of the voting since he respects the people's choice.

"Kumpetisyon 'yon nirerespeto ko kung ano 'yung desisyon na mangyari kung ako o si Laarni o kahit sino sa scholars. Kasi marinig lang ang boses ko makapag-inspire lang ako sa maraming tao ay it's a great achivement na po 'yon," he said.

"Sobrang layo na nitong narating ko kahit second place, kahit top six happy-ng happy po ako kasi ang daming taong gustong makapasok dito," Bugoy added.

"Happy-ng happy po ako kay Laarni she deserves it," he stressed.

The guy from Camarines Sur extended his appreciation to all his loyal fans and supporters saying that he will always keep in his mind the love and trust given to him.

"Thank you po sa inyong lahat salamat po sa suporta. Sa akin po ay mas mahalaga po yung tiwala niyo sa akin yun po ang kini-keep ko sa sarili ko, 'yung nagtiwala kayo sa mga kakayahan ko," he said.

Now, Bugoy's plan is to continue honing his craft since he wants to pursue his dream to become a great performer.

He also dreams of becoming a great chef and to be able to find someone he could fall in love with.

Bugoy or Jay Bogayan in real life is an 18-year-old who was a working student before he entered the Academy. Coming from a poor family in a remote area in Camarines Sur, Bugoy went into university with the dream of earning a degree. He paid his tuition through scholarships and earned extra money while working as a janitor, dish washer and taking on other unusual jobs.

In the farm only the cows and the birds could hear his voice, and a friend who heard him singing while cleaning with a mop, made him realize that he could actually sing. He then joined school competitions and then decided to try out for PDA.
