Budding Kapuso singer-actress Marika Sasaki expressed desire to pursue a music career. After being trained in Walang Tulugan, she showcased her vocal prowess as she sang the theme song of Oh My Ghost and performed it on the Playlist.
She shared that some of her favorite singers include the Queen of Soul, Asia’s Songbird, and the R&B Princess of the Philippines.
“I love Jaya po and Ms. Regine Velasquez-Alcasid. I [also] look up to Kyla, kasi [ang laki] po talaga [ng naging contribution nula sa] OPM so respect po talaga,” she said.
The Philippines’ Pop Princess is also someone she takes inspiration from.
“I [also] want to be [like] Sarah Geronimo. [All of them are the reasons why] I’m trying to become a singer na talagang mahusay at nagta-touch ng puso ng tao,” she added.
Marika recognizes that she still has a long way to go in her career, and makes sure she gives nothing short of her best in all her showbiz endeavors.
“Not everybody is given a chance to sing in the Playlist and I’m here right now. Thankful [po] ako. Umaawap po talaga yung pasasalamat ko sa Panginoon [at] sa GMA,” she concluded.
