Southern Luzon Protégé Arny Ross was eliminated during the 4th elimination night of GMA-7's Protégé: The Battle for the Big Artista Break on Sunday, September 16. Arny was sent home after getting the lowest text votes and judges' score.
Before Arny was sent home, the Protégés performed with their respective mentors in an acting and stage piece in front of the judges and the live audience.
The 4th elimination night followed the Protégé Shock two weeks ago wherein four Protégés were eliminated and reshuffling and even distribution of the Protégés per mentor happened. Arny, previously mentored by Gina Alajar was chosen by Phillip Salvador along with his retained Protégé Ruru Madrid.
With Arny Ross' elimination, only 9 Protégés were left in the competition. They are:
Roderick Paulate's Protégés - Elle Ramirez and Japs de Luna
Ricky Davao's Protégés - Shelly Hipolito and Bryan Benedict
Gina Alajar's Protégés - Zandra Summer and Thea Tolentino
Jolina Magdangal's Protégés - Mikoy Morales and Jeric Gonzales
Phillip Salvador's Protégé - Ruru Madrid
