Dear fanpopper,

I am really glad that we completed FGT 2014 so nicely, there came some problems in finishing this but we crossed the hurdles together and honestly I couldn’t have done this without your helps. We saw some amazing and breathe taking entries in this FGT but only 4 entries made it to the Grande Finale.
Still you all are winners as you guys are bravo enough to participate and ipakita your talent to the world.

Some facts about Fanpop’s Got Talent
2014

1.This FGT was biggest FGT of all. This taon 40+ fans registered and 30+ entries were naisumite which is a big thing.
2.80+fans voted in Drawing and Digital Art Quarter Finals. And 60+ fans mga boto in tagahanga fiction Quarter finals.
3. 137 fans mga boto in Grande pick and choose the winner as well as runner ups.
4. This was the first time winner were choose sa pamamagitan ng direct voting, as earlier mga boto were took through PMs as we all know it’s hard and time consuming work and not much people PM their mga boto I thought it would be better to make a pick based on comments for choosing the winner.
5. It was the first time that FGT had volunteers and judges who had to do work. As earlier judges collected votes, but this time it was different as there were too many entries and fans couldn’t read all the posts, so we gave them the best of best and let them decide the winner.
6. It was first time that categories were divide and each category had different volunteer and judges.
7. This FGT was tagahanga fic’s FGT (not because it won or else) as 10+ fics were naisumite which is a large number.
8. segundo place in order of naisumite big number of submission comes drawing and digital art category.
9. Its first FGT were a haiku directly went to the finals.
10. It is first FGT were only one participant naisumite her song.

Here is sort interview with winner nerdbuster2
Q.1 How are you feeling after winning Fanpop's Got Talent 2014?

The first thing I thought was *what the hell?* I guess xD coz there are so many other talented people on fanpop... and I thought I wouldn'tdeserve it compared to the work other people here put into their entries... but also I am so happy that and thank everyone who voted for my work because it really does give me inspiration to do madami and get better at it ^^

Q2. Since when you are makig drawings? Do you make digital art works?

I've drawn ever since I was tiny ^_^ I pag-ibig drawing coz I can put anything on that sheet of paper I want :3 I also visit extra art classes at school and use a special drawing book to help me :)
Well, I do sometimes do digital art works but they are all so rubbish :P I don't have much patience for computers so doing something so detailedon one would drive me *totally crazy* xD I did once disensyo a logo for a company a friend's dad is establishing but that is the only thing I ever done that looked any good :)

Q3.What's your paborito talent excluding drawing? And did you wanted to participate in another section?

*MUSIC!* I pag-ibig music madami than anything else but unfortunately there wasn't a section for music, only pag-awit and dancing and trust me, no one wants to see me dance and especially not not hear me sing :P so I admired the pag-awit entry and congratulate her for her great voice ^_^ I play piano and gitara and I guess that's my other talent.. but as I sinabi there is no section for music...
I also like to write.... but I'm not so good at tagahanga fictions and stuff like that so I wouldn't have participated in that section ^^

Q4. How you came to know about this contest and what was your first reaction towards this?

Well, I kinda joined the club a while nakaraan but couldn't really figure out what it was for :P I found out about the contest through Sini I think... pader post ^^ I had a look and read about what it was and thought to myself 'Why not give it a try? Can't do any worse than lose!'

Q5. Did you participate in earlier FGTs?

Nope, I didn't sumali Fanpop until last June :D

Q6. Whom you found a good contender in Drawing and Digital Art Category? And whose entry was your favorite?

I think my two tuktok favourites were IngridPresley and karinabrony :) I quite liked the characters they both chose and I thought theirs were the best ^^ I congratulate them too for their awesome drawings :D and I thought -AaY_V- digital art work was amazing! ^__^ so well done to him too!!!
Q7. What's your paborito tagahanga fiction entry in this FGT?
oh that's a hard one now I gotta think... I'm a big tagahanga of Animefan66's Pagsulat so I guess I have to say his entry was my favourite ^^ *well done Kasey* <3 I have to say I didn't read all of the others because I haven't really had much time lately, but I remember 'The Pirate-King's execution' and 'The dark mansion' they were great too so well done to them :3

Q8. What's your paborito Haiku entry in FGT 2014?
hmm... I think I only read snsdlover4ever's Haiku entry... so I can't really say it was the best or it would be unfair towards the other haiku entries as I didn't read them all. but well done to snsdlover4ever because she did a great job :D

Q9. When you joined Fanpop? And what do you think of this site?
I joined last taon in June not long after my birthday... I actually have *no idea* how I found it... guess I was looking up about Johnny Depp again lol but I guess I must have come across his club somehow and just joined - I guess that's how it happened xD and I have to say it's great I never made so many awesome mga kaibigan ^_^ I pag-ibig it here it's like a segundo tahanan I can come to whenever I feel like it :D because I can be who I am and am not judged the same way other people around me judge me... and I guess everyone feels that way, and that's why I like it :D

Q1O. Would you like to tell or suggest something to susunod year’s contestants?
oh god me giving advice? O.o haha ok whether anyone will listen or not is another thing :P I would tell you guys to keep at what you're good at and never give up when things don't go so well... everyone has a talent and once they've found it they can get better and even those who think they are not so good: you are! You do your best and that's what counts! competitions aren't about winning (even though winning gives you a great feeling of course lol jk) they are about having fun and ipinapakita off how good you are at something! even when someone is 'better' than you or gets madami mga boto doesn't mean they are better.... it's just someone else's opinion and none of that counts so stay awesome and do your best all the time ^_^ (gosh now I hope you guys really do listen took me a lot of effort not to write something silly just then and that's all true what I wrote trust me!)

Q11. Anything else you wanna say to our fans?
yes: you are all awesome!!!! I want every single one of you to stay as you are because I pag-ibig you all! you're such great mga kaibigan and I don't ever want that to change! and I'm sorry if I bored you all to death with this you're probably all asleep sa pamamagitan ng now but I hope you're not xD have a great araw fanpoppers, friends, bros and sisters :D
