Edgar Allan Guzman Gets Tips from Karla Estrada on Impersonating Daniel Padilla in 'Your Face Sounds Familiar'

“Your Face Sounds Familiar” celebrity performer Edgar Allan (EA) Guzman is very pressured yet excited to impersonate Teen King Daniel Padilla in the show’s upcoming episode this weekend (March 28 and 29).

He shared that he got the blessing of Daniel’s mother Karla Estrada to impersonate her son and even gained tips from his co-performer, the so-called “Queen Mother” on how he can better copy Daniel’s moves.

“Daniel has a certain laugh. So I did it, and she (Karla) said I should minimize it because I looked like Budoy. So I followed her advice and it was okay with her,” shared EA.

EA also said that although he gets to enjoy a day being the Teen King, he is motivated to give his best to make the KathNiel fans happy. “I’m pressured. But what’s great is their fans wish me good luck on Twitter and Instagram. They encourage me to do my best, because I tell them I will do everything to impersonate their idol,” he said.

Meanwhile, other “Your Face” celebrity performers are also more than ready to face the jury. Also undergoing a total transformation for the upcoming episode are Jolina Magdangal as Cher, Melai Centiveros as Blakdyak, Maxene Magalona as Ariana Grande, Tutti Caringal as April Boy Regino, Nyoy Volante as Tina Turner, Jay-R as Bamboo, and Karla as Meghan Trainor.

Its Saturday (March 21) episode hit a national TV rating of 27.8% versus GMA’s “Celebrity Bluff” (16.5%), while last Sunday (March 22), “Your Face” gained a national TV rating of 27% against “Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho” (23.9%).

Alex Gonzaga Showcases Musicality with 'I Am Alex G' Album

TV host-actress and best-selling author Alex Gonzaga continues to unleash her talents as she now shows off her vocal prowess via her bubbly, fun, and easy listening debut album “I am Alex G” released by Star Music.

“My album is just like me–fun yet fierce. I just don’t want people to discover that I can sing. I want them to enjoy and connect to the songs so much that they can sing along with me,” said Alex who admits that her idol Taylor Swift was a major influence in her music.

“Taylor Swift was my inspiration while doing the album. Just like her, I want to perform songs that will uplift the spirit of others,” she said. “Incidentally, I felt that ‘Taylor Swift magic’ the first time I heard my now favorite track in my album titled “Panaginip Lang.” It’s very upbeat, has strong recall and it’s a quick mood upper.”

With her debut album released, a first major concert happening in April at the Araneta Coliseum, and an upcoming primetime teleserye “Inday Bote,” Alex has nothing but gratitude in her heart.

“All these things that are happening to me now were just once part of my dreams. But through the help of many people who gave me opportunities to share my talents and with the strong support of my fans, I am now here living my dreams. I will forever be thankful to all of them,” Alex said.

The “I am Alex G” album has six tracks “Di Ko Akalain,” “Alam Mo Na ‘Yan,” “Boyfriend,” “Break Na Tayo!,” “Goodbye Kiss” and her carrier single “Panaginip Lang.” All six tracks have minus one versions in the album.

“I am Alex G” is now available at all record bars nationwide for only P199. Digital tracks can also be downloaded worldwide via online music stores such as iTunes and Mymusicstore.com.ph.
