MANILA, Philippines - The remaining five finalists of ABS-CBN's talent show "Star Power: Sharon’s Search for Next Female Pop Star," hosted by Megastar Sharon Cuneta, are one in saying that they want to join the world of show business.
In an interview with abs-cbnNEWS.com, the Star Power 5, namely Akiko Solon, K-La Rivera, Monica Sacay, Angeline Quinto and Krissel Valdez, revealed their reasons why they want to become stars.
"Aside from singing, gusto ko ding mag-acting, gusto ko ding mag-dancing," said Akiko, the "Sweet and Sexy Siren of Cebu."
Akiko added that, win or lose, she wouldn’t have any regret.
For Monica, she admitted that she's not good at acting but she is open to giving it a try.
"Pero kung ano po ang io-offer sa akin why not po. Kasi it's a very big opportunity po na maging artist, mag-a-act ka sa camera. And I want to experience it," the "Charming Biritera of Leyte" said.
Monica, who used to sing for weddings, also said that she doesn’t fear criticisms, saying it will help her improve her craft.
Krissel, The "Soulful Diva of Davao," said that, for her, acting is like singing.
She said: "Kung hindi ka marunong umarte hindi mo mae-express ang kanta mo. Like sila Sarah Geronimo, mas madali silang umarte kapag musician ka, maraming emotions. Hindi po ganoon kadali pero hindi po ganoon kahirap mahalin ang acting aside sa singing. So kung may opportunities, go na go talaga."
For K-La, the "R&B Sweetheart from Canada," she also wants to host shows like her idol, Cuneta.
"Ako din po, siguro isang araw po I'd like to try din acting din po, at hosting and dancing. Lahat po kasi it's all art. I love art, like music,” said K-La.
Like most members of the group, Angeline also loves to act.
"Opo kasi talagang gusto ko po itong ginagawa," said the "Pop Belter of Manila."
The grand finalists also divulged their favorite actors and their "dream leading men."
K-La dreams to be paired with Sam Milby; Akiko, Derek Ramsay or John Lloyd Cruz; Monica, John Lloyd Cruz or Richard Poon; Krisell, John Lloyd or Piolo Pascual; and Angeline, Aga Muhlach.
The Star Power finalists are gearing up for the much-awaited grand finals on February 20. (report from Reyma Buan-Deveza, abs-cbnNEWS.com)
