Sheila@Gaisano’s Singing Idol Pre-finals

Trying her luck and proving how much she can achieve in a real singing competition, Ilonggo songstress Sheila Barrios has decided to put her talent to test by joining the Singing Idol pre-finals at Gaisano Capital Activity Center last October 30, 2010. Though she’s a bit more amateur in singing contests before, Sheila saw the opportunity as a chance to test her singing prowess more and considered it as a good experience to improve more. She doesn’t expect winning in the contest but trying more to improve herself onstage. Sheila performed two songs based in the rules of the competition (one fast song and a ballad song of her choice). For the fast song, she choose to perform “I Will Survive” by Gloria Gaylor and “I Love You Goodbye” by Celine Dion for the ballad. Out of six contestants, the judges will only choose two winners that will compete in the grand finals. Luckily, Sheila won and chosen as grand finalist.

The Singing Idol grand finals at Gaisano Capital is scheduled on November 6, 2010, 4PM at the mall’s activity center. We wish the best of luck for Sheila!
