Tawag Ng Tanghalan Kids May 26 performances, daily winner, and champion
First contender, Maria Kassandra Charm Naval. This eight-year-old kiddie contender from Paranaque loves singing and drawing. Charm is also a fashionista and loves exploring different hair styles. She sang “Chinito” by her idol Yeng Constantino.
Judge Jed Madela loved how pleasant Charm’s voice was and how her performance was sincere and sweet. Song choice was a bit of an issue for him but all in all, great performance. Judge Kyla says if Yeng were here she would surely be proud of Charm.
Second contender, Renz Harvey Alegioujo. Kiddie contender from Cebu is 10-year-old Renz. Renz is a responsible son, older brother, and grandson. His father is an OFW based in Saudi while his mom is a quality controller for optical lenses. He spends most of his time helping his grandmother sell kutsinta. The love he has for his family is almost thesame love he has for singing. “Greatest Love Of All” was Renz’s song for today.
Head judge Ogie Alcasid said Renz chose the perfect song for his performance. He just advised him to smile a bit when singing. Renz tried it and the audience saw the big difference it makes to the quality of his voice and stage presence.
Third contender, Ricky Tumpong Jr. Contender from Lanao Del Norte is 12-year-old kiddie contender Ricky. Ricky and his family sell fish at their local community. He says he spends most of his time singing. In fact, he sings mornings, afternoons, and even evenings. Ricky sang Aegis’ hit, “Munting Pangarap.”
Ricky’s performance was very innocent says judge Billy Crawford. He said Ricky had the voice and just needed to develop it more but all in all, great performance. Judge Erik Santos, on the other hand, saw how much he enjoys singing and encouraged him to go on in pursuing his dreams.
