Tawag Ng Tanghalan December 14 Performances
First on stage was Dezza Guevarra from Muntinlupa. This Fifteen-year-old is a certified achiever in school. Dezza looks up to singers like Sarah Geronimo, Charice Pempengco and Yeng Constantino. She chose to sing “One Night Only” by Jennifer Hudson hoping to impress the judges.
Hurado Billy gave advise instead of comments. He advised Dezza to remove some of her ‘growling’ and has to be careful of her notes. Song choice is also one factor because the song seemed to be more for adults.
Next on stage was Almae Castillo from Leyte. Almae is a graduating Mechanical Engineering student. She sings at a hotel in Leyte where she met her boyfriend. Almae is so in love that she dedicates her song to everyone who is in love. To top it off, Almae sang Ella Fitzgerald’s “Bewtiched, Bothered and Bewildered.”
Hurado Rey Valera said, “Napakagaling” and added he really loved Almae’s tone quality. He also said he was bewitched, impressed and in love.
Last contender was 26-year-old Clarencez Almain. Clarencez is a student by day and ‘nanay’ by night. For her contest piece, Clarence sang “Hopelessly Devoted” from the movie “Grease.” Hurado K Brosas liked her confidence, personality and ‘harot’ on stage. Hurado Erik Santos said Clarencez was so pleasing on stage but she has to be careful whenever she reaches high notes but over all it was a good performance.
