ang pangit ng ugali mo your so bad
i like her.. yahooooo!! i love liezel garcia!
she’s great.. lovely and soothing voice.. she can be included in Destiny’s child.. with a voice like that and a face that glows whever she performs.. i think she can make it that far.. kakaiba voice nya..
Liezel is my bet too hoping for her,to win the end of pda2 competetion on abs-cbn2 in the near future.Keep up the good work you had started there,be simple and try to listen and for the all technics what mentors teaches inside the house on singing,vocalizing,stage performances and camera projection to be a professional singer with quality voice.
great singer…kulang lang sa diction pero maganda ang labas ng boses niya…
i simply adore her soothing voice
HAPPY BLOGGING!!
Hoping for you to win in the contest at the end.You got a great voice Liezel I will vote for you.
sama ugali mo,inis ka rin k laarni, mas magaling sya kc sa u!
it’s very obvious that ABS CBN PDA is not a talent academy but an ACADEMY FOR CREATING MONEY.ABS CBN is using Laarni to gain more text votes and since the poor girl has a lot of followers,the tendecy for the fans is to save Laarni.So it doesn’t matter whoever has the higher grades.I jst feel sorry 4 Laarni, she is very talented pero pinaglalaruan ka lang.Just like for us who initially believe the ABS CBN,GINIGISA TAu SA SARILI NATING MANTIKA,MUKANG PERA ANG ABS CBN,THEY CAN MANIPULATE US AND YOU WON’T EVEN REALIZE IT.IF YOU KEEP VOTING LAARNI, ABS CBN WILL WIN…NOT THE SCHOLAR.I BELIEVE THAT LAARNI WILL BE BETTER OUTSIDE PDA.SANA MAKARMA ANG ABS CBN SA GINAGAWA NILA AT KUNG HINDI MA SAVE SI LAARNI I AM SURE BAGSAK ANG RATING NYO BECAUSE ALL OF US KNOW THAT LAARNI HAS MAJORITY OF PDAS2 FANS.Kung tama ang balita ko,GMA will make sure Laarni will be voted out to get even,they know Laarni makes PDAS2 as popular lyk this.Maybe itwill B good 4 Laarni,she’s not appreciated by ABS CBN anyway
I WOULD LOVE TO SEE HER SHINES IN A STATION THAT WILL TAKE CARE OF HER AND NOT JUST USE HER. IF IT HAPPENS, BAGSAK SIGURADO ANG RATING NG ABS! KARMA! IF I DON’T VOTE FOR LAARNI THIS WEEK, IT DOESN’T MEAN I DON’T WANT TO SUPPORT HER, BUT I WILL NOT SPEND MORE MONEY PARA IBIGAY SA ABS CBN. I WILL NOT SPEND MONEY TO A SHOW THAT DOESN’T SERVE IT’S PURPOSE. LAARNI WILL HAVE HER TIME…NOT IN ABS CBN.
galing!
ayos!
well… that’s what they alway say, business is business. basta for me, i just hope liezel will make it thru and will eventually become a successful singer/celeb after PDA
laarni is the best, walang panama si liezl ay kahit sino sa kanila. You are the best Laarni.
You have a very BAD attitude,Liezl.I saw your 24/7 in the videos posted in You TUbe. Your attiude is just as bad as your ugly freakin’ face! You would look real and better if you remain humble. Just for your reality check: LAARNI is a lot better than you!
bakit, anong ugali ni liezel na pinakita sa you tube?
liezel ako dati, pero liezel pa din naman ako..pero gusto ko na rin si laarni.
yes, dapat maging fans kau ni laarni dahil she is improving now, very humble at totoong tao xa, ang galing nya talaga daming tagahanga si laarni, liezel its time na, baka maabutan ka na ni laarni, at dapat xa ang maging star dreamer, go laarni.
ok sya maganda ang voice kaya lang kulang sa performance. Walang bago sa performance niya. Nakakasawa at boring na…Pang rnb lang. nang magguest nga sya sa ASAP with Piolo wal masyado response from the audience… kasi nakukulangan, may palya, di ko nagustuhan…sayng pagkakataon na sana niya un para ipakita na dapat siya maging no. 1. baka nga mas palakpakan pa si laarni at bugoy pag sila nagperform sa asap… Gusto parin nila ung bumibirit like laarni kaya nga dami niya fans…Kay bugoy maganda boses kaya lang boring din magperform nakakasawa. Dami natutuwa dahil sa pagiging bugay niya kaya lang talo sila ni laarni sa stage performance at audience impact… Si van ok heart rob kaya lang sana mahasa sa diction at pronounciation para mas ok, lakas ng dating sa mga babae.
during fisrt gala nyt bet ko na si Zel, pero habang tumatagal naboboring na ‘ko sa performance nya..ngaun si Laarni na inaabangan namin..galing kc nya! Go Laarni Go!
dapat pakantahin naman ng challengiing song si liezel para maiba naman, pare-pareho na lang kasi. kakaiba nga na maganda boses niya, ang pangit nga lang may binabagayan lang. paano na kaya pag nasa ASAP champions na sila, tapos kumanta sila ng mga AEGIS…or mga jukebox…alangan namang mag-request siya na kung pwede RNB na black kakantahin niya….aba eh kakaiba nga yun…
she’s a good singer i won’t argue with that pero star dreamer i don’t think so. kailangan makita yung versatility niya. dapat pakantahin din siya ng rock. tsaka wag naman palaging itim. nakaka-umay naman na eh. di na surprising pag kumakanta siya, sa una maganda boses pero pag tumatagal para nakikinig ka lang sa isang kanta over and over again.
HeYoUu gUZ !!!! LoVe kOh dIn 2 xE zEl LoVe u !!!!
gAliNg kMaNtA!!
sa una ka lang magaling…
dapat nga pakantahin ng mahirap si liezel pra ibigay nya tlga best nea.. kung di nea magawa.. gagawa at gagawa xa ng praan.. kya dun lalabas ung talent nea.. just like wat she did nung naging star scholar sya sa kantang LISTEN.. kc diba paos sya.. pero nagawan nea ng praan kya gumanda.. creative eh.. kya go.. kaw gusto ko maging star dreamer pero mejo di na ko nageexpect… galingan mo na lang tlga.. lague kc safe song eh…
i sarch nyo sa youtube yung “alamat ng mahiwagang basahan”…
makikita ninyo dun ung sama ng ugali ni leizel, kahit basahan ayaw nyang hawakan dahil si laarni ang naglagay nun sa lababo, at cya pa ang may karapatan mainis, aba.
she’s exotic inside out. and i also mean very low profile person very kind naive
I like the quality of her voice,excellent,goodluck I salute ABS-CBN for being a good training ground for all singers.To liezel don’t be bothered for all the comments given to you even if its negative take it as a challenge ok.do ur best goodluck ok.and for those negative comments against ABS-CBN ok lng yan the ORIG naman d b?
Bigatin mentors and judges.Don’t change liezel take all the negative comments as ur guides and that is ur steping stone to make u brave.
you’ve got that unique voice, beautiful and very appealing features. Hawig mo si Leona Lewis grand winner of X Factor. Keep it up Liezel!
I absolutely love Liezel’s voice and singing style. Classy.. Hope she wins
Let’s keep on voting for Liezel. She’s truly one talented singer. Vote vote vote!!
dpt c zel mnlo she s a grt snger ………………………….
zel ur na bzt…………….. unqe vce mo ky xa ky laani at bugoy
c zel dpt manlo kc nd xa oi nd tld ni laarni oi
u dont deserve to be on the 4th rank… dapat ikaw ang nanalo…. di lang dapat sa text votes kinuha ang decision dapat meron ding percentage coming from the judges…
I think you are definitely correct, Arlyn. Sana wala na lng silang mga judges. Sa votes na lng sana sila nag focus, kung sa last part ang text votes lng ang pagbabasihan. I hope next time, they also get percentage from their mentors, judges, and not only with the text votes. Para walang boses na katulad ni Miguel ang maging top 3. Sana ganito ang winners:
1. Laarni
2. Liezel
3. Bugoy
4. Cris
5. Van
6. Miguel
sayang idol ko…. kaso sa totoo lang sa simula lang sya magaling…. sayang talaga! magaling sya kaso may problema din sa boses nya, masyadong manipis. pagmataas na ang nota lalo pang numinipis. hanggang dun lang ang kaya nya… at ilang type lang ng kanta ang nakakanta nya na maeelib ka… sayang!
Yes. Pero, she know how to carry her voice. Di tulad ni Miguel nakadidismaya naging 3rd sya.
ang galing mo liezel!!!! idol ko kayo ni bugoy….BAGAY PA KAYO….
sana mging regular kayo ni bugoy sa ASAP……..love u
BAGAY KAYO NI BUGOY!!!!!!!
BAGAY KAYO NI BUGOY!!!!!!!
BAGAY KAYO NI BUGOY!!!!!!!
BAGAY KAYO NI BUGOY!!!!!!!
BAGAY KAYO NI BUGOY!!!!!!!
BAGAY KAYO NI BUGOY!!!!!!!
BAGAY KAYO NI BUGOY!!!!!!!
BAGAY KAYO NI BUGOY!!!!!!!
bagong loveteam….
parang Yeng at RJ……oooooiiii!!!!
kinikilig tlaga aq sa inyo ni Bugoy…..bagong Loveteam in singing…oi!
un lang ang problema…… dapat di c miguel ang nasa 3rd. dapat nasa pang anim un eh. mayabang. para namang bonjing! masyadong malaki ang mukha para maging singer.
Wow.. what a coincidence… All those that hated Liezel are… fans of Laarni???
Tell me something: sino ang “mabait” na tumatalon talon ng malaman na nagquit si Jet?? Sino ang nagiisang tao na wala man lang pinakitang simpatiya, except for her love of herself. Don’t get me wrong, I hated Jet, but all the rest showed “class”, sino lang ang hindi?
Sino ang ngpakita ng immaturity, pambabastos sa mentors, sa kapwa scholars at nagpabigat ng husto sa situations sa loob?
And with one incident when Liezel showed her frustrations, everything exploded na ang sama ni Liezel.
Tsk..tsk.. No wonder this country has GMA for president… kung sa simpleng bagay nga na ganito madaming di marunong mag-isip.. sa mas malaking bagay pa kaya??
Liezel isn’t my star scholar.. but she is one hell of a singer.. and don’t get me wrong.. Laarni is fantastic as well.. but like it or not, she did not win because she deserved it.. She won because people who are as insecure as her wanted her to win… no more no less.
Hi Liezel, I hope you are reading. I voted from you from Abu Dhabi. Sadly, my vote wasn’t enough for you to get the much coveted ‘Grand Star Dreamer’ Award. However, take this advice, Zel- you’re beauty and appeal is pang-International, as you were told many times. With your looks and your voice, you’ll go a long way. Find yourself a good manager or get the best contracts and try to go International- mapagkakamalan kang ‘Kanang Itim’- but that is your asset!!! Huwag ka sanang masyadong sensitibo sa kulay mo, you can turn that to your advantage. Good Luck, Zel.
Sorry, sa mga grammatical errors, hehhehehe…palit ng palit ng sentence ayan tuloy….kayo na lang po ang magpaumanhin…..
HOY! number 9 galing ka ba sa GMA.
