The Filipino singer shared that it was “Tawag Ng Tanghalan” and “It’s Showtime” that first gave him a platform to pursue his singing career.

“I was reminiscing. Every time I auditioned for competitions, it was ‘Tawag Ng Tanghalan’ that first noticed me,” he said, his eyes welling with tears.

Vice Ganda then referred to Sofronio as the pride of “Tawag Ng Tanghalan.”

“My dreams didn’t stop after the competition (‘Tawag Ng Tanghalan’),” he said. “‘It’s Showtime’ itself gave me the opportunity to work as a vocal coach.”

Sofronio also took the time to express his gratitude to his “The Voice USA” coach, Michael Bublé.

“I just want to thank coach Michael Bublé. I know he’s watching, thank you for being a Filipino,” he said.

Meanwhile, Sofronio, who made history as the first Filipino and Asian to win “The Voice USA,” is preparing for his first solo concert in Cebu on January 18.’
