#YFSFCuties Sam Shoaf As Bruno Mars
Sam Shoaf who is a The Voice Kids contestant is going to imitate pop music icon Bruno Mars. Wearing Bruno Mars’ signature pink jacket and sunglasses, Sam came out and sang “Uptown Funk” with much gusto and energy.

#YFSFCuties Lyca Gairanod As Katy Perry
Lyca Gairanod, who was the first winner of The Voice Kids, shared how much her life has changed after winning the contest. While she was enjoying a videoke challenge in Tanza, Cavite, she found out that she was supposed to imitate Katy Perry. Lyca said that she was a huge fan of Katy Perry.
Sharon noted that she performed well but she felt that Lyca was not that comfortable sometimes. However she also said that she did well no matter that. Ogie applauded her for her transformation, but said that because she was not comfortable sometimes, that reflected in her performance as well.
#YFSFCuties AC Bonifacio As Britney Spears
The final contestant is AC Bonifacio, who is one half of the dance group that won in Dance Kids. One thing most people don’t know about her is that she also knows how to sing. Her icon to be imitated is pop princess Britney Spears, and tonight, she performed “Baby One More Time.”
