Lea on Anne’s performance: ‘So much fun’

Tony Award-winning actress and singer Lea Salonga

MANILA — After a controversy which sprawled in 2012, Lea Salonga, one of the coach in “The Voice of the Philippines,” commented on Ann Curtis’ performance on the Sunday episode of the singing competition.

Curtis who performed with Bamboo and the coach’s top six got a standing ovation from Salonga and fellow coaches Sarah Geronimo and apl.de.ap.

The self-confessed, “non-singer” performed Icona Pop’s “I Love It” and “All Night.”

Salonga, who was misquoted in a report as calling Curtis “out-of-tune” and “insulting” to professional singers, also commented on Curtis’ performance.

Reacting to the report, Salonga said what she said were taken out of context.

Meanwhile, through a Twitter post, Salonga replied to a follower who asked what she thought of Curtis’ number. Salonga said, “So much fun.”
