MANILA, Philippines – The exciting Voice PH Battles is tonight, July 28, 2013 and Twitter is already abuzz with Twitter peeps tweeting in support of their favorite contestants.
Team Lea, Team Bamboo, Team Apl and Team Sarah are ready for the showdown. Although the segment was recorded in advance, rumors disclosed that Lea Salonga, the international stage actress who had won a Tony, had cried in one of the episodes.
It would be interesting to know why. The two women coaches, Lea and Sarah Geronimo have cried for some contestants during the Blind Auditions. Even the macho Bamboo cried for one contestant.
For the episode tonight, perhaps the tears would be because of some contestants, again. The contestants are all talented, it would certainly sad to see anyone of them go.
Fans trooped to Twitter, though, to express their thoughts. Coach Lea Salonga tweeted:
Lea Salonga @MsLeaSalonga
“Battles officially begin tonight! My stomach’s gonna hurt again reliving it all.”
Lea Salonga @MsLeaSalonga
“So, who’s going head to head with @LeeGrane? Time to dance. #VoicePHBattles.”
As coaches, Lea Salonga has that youthful enthusiasm that is refreshing, coupled with her self-confident aura. She is an icon in the international and local music industry. She would be perfect for contestants needing a “lively” push. Apl.de.Ap is funny, straightforward and has that X factor usually desired in contestants. He would be good for multi-talented contenders.
Rock singer Bamboo Manalac, on the other hand, has startling originality and unique style. He would be excellent for singers, who would like to be different from the common mold. Sarah Geronimo has an innocent exuberance that is difficult to ignore. This may be because she is the youngest. She is also equally talented as her co-coaches on the Voice of the Philippines.
Aside from being a battle for the Voice PH contestants, it would also a battle of sorts among the four coaches and the advisers, namely, Gerard Salonga, Arnel Pineda, Joey Ayala and Gary Valenciano.
