THE DAY AFTER FIL-AM JOSE "SWAY" PENALA got voted out of "American Idol," Inquirer Entertainment hooked up with him by phone.
The voice on the other end of the line was that of a very positive and a very graceful "dropout."
"I'm very happy to make you all proud. It's just too bad I couldn't stay longer so I can make you prouder," Sway said by way of thanking all Filipinos for their support.
