She may be named after a famous Hollywood star, but young artist Kendall Valerio is able to prove that she can also be a star in her own right as she’s not only irresistibly charming, but impressively talented, too! And that’s why she is able to win the hearts of many during her blind audition for The Voice Kids Season 5.
The six-year-old charmer from Marilao, Bulacan described herself as cute, bubbly and energetic, to which her Mommy Lara agreed as she’s the type of kid who is never shy to interact with the people around her. According to her, they discovered her singing potential when they noticed how she would sing the songs from the movies they’re watching. Equipped with a lovely voice and fascinating charisma, the little girl dreams of becoming a model-singer someday.
But more than being talented and adorable, Mommy Lara revealed that her daughter is actually a “miracle baby.” She recounted how Kendall suffered from cord coil when she was born. Fortunately, she was able to survive and has been delighting everyone with her cuteness and impressive singing skills.
With regards to her popular name, Kendall disclosed that it was actually her dad who came up with it since he has a huge crush on supermodel and socialite Kendall Jenner.
Her heartwarming rendition of the Moira Dela Torre hit “Kumpas” really touched the hearts of everyone, including the coaches. Although her voice got a bit wobbly in the chorus part, Coach Martin Nievera didn’t mind it and still turned for her, making her part of the MarTeam.
In her The Voice Kids DigiTV appearance, Kendall charmed hosts Elha Nympha and Jeremy G with her cuteness, especially when she struck a few poses to the camera. She was joined by her Mommy Lara, who advised her to just enjoy her journey in the competition and to sing with all her heart every time she’s onstage.
With Moira Dela Torre as one of her favorite artists and her song “Kumpas” as the one she liked the most, there’s no wonder that they picked it to be her audition piece. And as her parents apparently calls her their “superstar,” it is also what she will want to call her fans once she gets famous.
