Another Filipino Shines on ‘The Voice USA’—Who Is the Newest Star?

Months after Filipino singer Sofronio Vasquez emerged triumphant on The Voice USA, another Filipino is trying their chance in the competition.

Jessica Manalo, a Filipino based in Las Vegas, performed Sam Smith’s “Unholy” in the blind auditions of the The Voice USA’s 27th season.

In a sneak peek uploaded by NBC online, two coaches turned for Manalo — Michael Bublé and Kelsea Ballerini.

The episode has yet to air on TV, which meant Manalo’s chosen coach remained a mystery.

Manalo recalled her journey on her Instagram account, saying: “The last 24 hours have been overwhelming. My heart is full and I am in shock from the love and support from so many near and far.”

“My episode has not officially aired and NBC The Voice [featured a] sneak peek [of] my blind audition for all to see! But who do I choose? You’ll have to see for yourself,” she said in an Instagram post.

Jessica reposted some of the well-wishes and congratulatory posts she has received since the sneak peek audition was uploaded online. In addition, she wrote “Yes, I am Filipina” together with the Philippine flag emoji in her Instagram account.
