Naya Ambi, the pride of Las Piñas City, is The Clash 2024’s grand winner!

The 19-year-old singing aspirant, nicknamed the Soulful Gen Z, was declared the grand champion of the Kapuso network’s all-original singing and reality show on Saturday evening, December 14. 

Naya’s winning piece was a powerful rendition of Mariah Carey’s “I’ll Be There” in a head-to-head clash against Laguna’s Chloe Redondo, who on the other hand performed the Celine Dion classic “My Heart Will Go On.”

Naya’s winning P4 million-worth purse includes: one million pesos in cash, an exclusive management contract with Sparkle, and a brand-new house and lot.

Following the grand announcement, Naya sang “Bituing Pangarap,” a song composed by fellow ‘clasher’ and Top 24 finalist Paul Rosa. 

Present during the awarding night were a number of GMA Network executives: GMA Network Vice President for Musical Variety, Specials and Alternative Productions for Entertainment Group Ms. Gigi Santiago-Lara; Senior Vice President for Entertainment Group Ms. Lilybeth G. Rasonable; and Vice President of Sparkle GMA Artist Center Ms. Joy Marcelo.
