Young actress Vivoree Esclito impersonated Sarah Geronimo on Saturday, February 20, during the telecast of the new season of Your Face Sounds Familiar.
For the first week’s challenge, Vivoree sang and danced to Sarah’s biggest hit “Tala.” She also got the opportunity to use the costume Sarah wore during the Grand Tala Day in 2020.
Sharon Cuneta said that she sensed Vivoree’s nervousness but since it was only the first episode, the young actress would be able to handle it later on.
Gary Valenciano said that the performance as “multiple challenges” for her.
“You really have to sing, kailangan marunong ka din gumalaw (you also need to know how to move). You’re biggest asset is your ability to act. So I am looking forward to all your other performances from this day,” he said.
Ogie Alcasid, meanwhile, said that Vivoree now knows what to work on with the feedback given to her.
First released in 2015, “Tala” was the lead single of Sarah’s album The Great Unknown. The song became popular again after the choreography of the music video became a dance challenge online.
Vivoree along with the iDolls, Klarisse de Guzman, and Jhong Hilario were the first batch of performers. The second batch will do their impersonations on Sunday, February 21.
Hosted by Luis Manzano, Your Face Sounds Familiar airs Saturdays and Sundays on A2Z, the Kapamiliya Channel on cable, iWantTFC, and Kapamilya Online. – Rappler.com
