Many reality show graduates start their rise to fame as homegrown talents of the network that discovered them.

But then, nothing is permanent in show business.

Some reality show graduates found opportunities outside their mother network, others signed up with a rival station.

There were those who returned to their original station years later.

PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) lists down 13 winners from different reality competitions of ABS-CBN, GMA-7, and TV5 who switched rival stations for better offers and more career opportunities.

Note that this list only includes reality show winners who did, or has continued to do, regular projects with the network they transferred to.

Sarah Geronimo

Sarah Geronimo won the grand prize in VIVA Television’s reality sing competition, Star For A Night in 2003. It aired on IBC-13.

Soon after her win, Sarah joined GMA-7's variety show, SOP, where most talents of VIVA Artists Agency were regular performers.

A year later, in 2004, VIVA Artists Agency transferred its talents, including Sarah, to ABS-CBN.

Sarah then joined ABS-CBN’s longest-running variety show, ASAP, and had a segment called 'Champions Showdown,' together with other reality singing competition winners and finalists.

She also starred in several teleserye, including Sarah The Teen Princess (2004), Bituing Walang Ningning (2006), Pangarap na Bituin (2007), and iDOL (2010).

Sarah also top-billed movies co-produced by VIVA and ABS-CBN’s talent arm, Star Cinema, including A Very Special Love (2008) and You Changed My Life (2010).

In 2011, there were rumors about Sarah transferring to TV5, but she denied them and remained a Kapamilya.

She continued appearing in ASAP, in movies under Star Cinema, and even had her own show called Sarah G. Live, which ran from 2012 to 2013 in the Kapamilya network.

In 2013, Sarah was supposed to top-bill her own drama anthology called Sarah G. Presents, but it was shelved when she took the offer to become one of the four coaches in The Voice.

Sarah remains one of the main performers in ASAP and a coach in The Voice Teens.

Both programs air on the Kapamilya Channel, the home of ABS-CBN shows after Congress denied the broadcast franchise renewal of the network.

Rachelle Ann Go

Rachelle Ann Go was the grand champion of Search for a Star in 2004, an annual talent competition co-produced by VIVA Television and GMA-7, and hosted by Regine Velasquez.

After winning the contest, Rachelle Ann had a very brief stint in GMA-7’s variety show SOP. Later, she transferred to ABS-CBN, along with other VIVA talents.

Rachelle Ann joined ABS-CBN’s ASAP and became part of the segment 'Champions Showdown,' together with fellow VIVA talents Sarah, Mark Bautista, Raymond Manalo, and Star In A Million winners Erik Santos and Frenchie Dy.

Later, Rachelle Ann, Sarah, and then newcomerYeng Constantino would have their own segment in ASAP called 'YRS,' which became popular with the show's viewers.

In 2007, Rachelle Ann was supposed to top-bill ABS-CBN’s remake of the Sharon Cuneta-Cherie Gil movie Sana’y Wala Nang Wakas, together with Sarah and Yeng .

However, VIVA Artists Agency turned down the offer because Rachelle Ann was given the kontrabida role that Cherie originally played. The project was shelved.

In 2010, VIVA Artists Agency transferred Rachelle Ann back to GMA-7, where she joined Party Pilipinas, the rival show of ASAP at that time.

As a Kapuso, Rachelle Ann did acting projects, like in Nita Negrita (2011), Amaya (2013), Biritera (2012), and Indio (2013).

In 2013, Rachelle Ann left VIVA Artists Agency and joined Cornerstone Entertainment.

In 2014, Rachelle Ann left GMA-7’s Sunday All Stars after she passed the audition for the role of Gigi in the West End revival of Miss Saigon.

Later, Rachelle Ann bagged the role of Fantine in the 30^th Anniversary staging of Les Miserables in 2015.

Rachelle Ann had her Broadway debut in 2017 when she reprised her role as Gigi in the Broadway revival of Miss Saigon. She also did the musical Hamilton.

In 2016, more than ten years after she won StarStruck, Ryza got a lead role in the movie Ang Manananggal sa Unit 23B, an entry in the annual QCinema film festival.

In the same year, Ryza got her break on TV as the kontrabida Georgia in Ika-6 Na Utos.

In June 2017, Ryza left GMA Artist Center for a management contract with VIVA Artists Agency.

The viewers of Ika-6 Na Utos thought that Ryza would also leave the show and transfer to ABS-CBN, especially when Angelika dela Cruz entered the show as the new kontrabida.

However, Ryza remained as the main villain of Ika-6 Na Utos until its finale on March 2018.

Weeks after Ika-6 Na Utos aired its finale, Ryza inked an exclusive contract with ABS-CBN. She appeared in the prime-time series FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano before doing her first official Kapamilya teleserye, The General’s Daughter, in 2019.

In 2008, Jona became a part of the singing trio La Diva that included other Pinoy Pop Superstar graduates: Aicelle Santos (from season two) and Maricris Garcia (from season three).

In 2013, Jonalyn left La Diva to pursue a solo career, which eventually caused the disbandment of the group in 2014.

However, Jonalyn continued her music career at GMA-7.

In February 2016, Jonalyn surprised the press when she appeared at the press conference of ABS-CBN’s teleserye, We Will Survive, to perform its theme song.

She then inked a contract with Star Music and Star Magic, ABS-CBN’s music arm and talent management unit, respectively. Henceforth, she was introduced as Jona.

Jona became part of the ASAP segment called 'ASAP Birit Queens' composed of Angeline Quinto, Morissette Amon, and Klarisse de Guzman.

She also performed the theme songs for the teleserye Pusong Ligaw (2017), Asintado (2018), and Ngayon at Kailanman (2018).

The Himig Handog entry 'Tinatapos Ko Na,' which was interpreted by Jona in 2019, currently plays as the theme song of the K-Drama The World of a Married Couple, which airs on Kapamilya Channel.

On July 11, 2020, a day after Congress denied the renewal of ABS-CBN’s broadcast franchise, Jona got this tweet from a basher: 'Mabuti nga sayo, lipat-lipat ka pa kasi, wala ka na trabaho, wala ka ng career.'

In late 2010, GMA-7 made Aljur and Kris appear in separate shows.

Aljur top-billed the remake of Machete in 2011. The show suffered low ratings and ran for only eight weeks. Its time schedule was also moved down to fourth from the second slot of GMA Telebabad.

After Machete, Aljur and Kris were paired again in Coffee Prince (2012) and in Prinsesa ng Buhay Ko (2013).

In 2014, Aljur played the leading man of Louise delos Reyes in Kambal Sirena.

Weeks after Kambal Sirena aired its finale, on July 24, 2014, Aljur filed for termination of his contract with GMA-7. His contract had yet to end in 2017.

According to a source, there were several reasons Aljur decided to cancel his contract with GMA-7.

First, he lost an endorsement because of GMA Artist Center, the talent arm of GMA-7.

Second, to quote a source of PEP.ph at that time, 'He's being made to sing naughty songs and puro kalaswaan na ang pinapagawa sa kanya sa soap.'

in 2015, a year after his legal battle with the network, Aljur was asked to play a lead role via the daytime series Dangwa with Janine Gutierrez. This was followed by another TV series, Once Again, in 2016. In the same year, his legal dispute with GMA-7 was settled.

In March 2017, GMA-7 decided not to renew Aljur’s contract. Months later, in July 2017, he began appearing on ABS-CBN.

Aljur joined the cast of FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano. He also played one of the leads in the afternoon teleseryes Asintado (2018) and Sandugo (2019-2020).

In a recent interview with PEP.ph, Aljur was asked about his stand on the non-renewal of ABS-CBN franchise.

Aljur’s answer: 'Actually, pro-franchise po ako. Siyempre, that’s my mother network now. Marami rin silang naitulong sa akin. Pero it’s beyond me. Ibig kong sabihin, their fight is their fight.'

At present, Aljur is preparing for a new movie titled Escape from Mamasapano.
