MAD gets madder in 2011

Dubbed 'Battle of the Finalists'  MAD 2011 will see finalists from 1996 to 2010 on the battlefield where talent would be the ammunition, and P50, 000 cash prize and a mini three-part series on the national broadcaster going to the winner.

The incentives are meant to remind MAD previous finalists that the show still supports them and hopes to assist one of them to achieve another milestone in his/her entertainment career. Briefing the press last week, MAD Trust member, Allan Rundle said they came up with this initiative because the local entertainment industry is no easy sailing.  "This special package is also meant to celebrate the show's milestone in the performing arts fraternity as it turned 15 last year," he said.
