Morissette Amon of Cebu fights for Top 8 spot in ‘The Voice PHL’

CEBU, Philippines - The quest for the first ever “The Voice of the Philippines” continues as the top-rating and Twitter-trending singing-reality shows stages another round of Live Shows for the members of each team tomorrow, Sunday, Sept. 8.

Two artists from the respective teams of Apl de Ap, Sarah Geronimo, Bamboo and Lea Salonga will face off in the Live Shows this weekend.

This time, the viewing public and the coaches have an equal say, with the combined percentages of the public votes and the coaches’ scores determining who among them will remain in the competition.

Fighting for their spot in Team Apl are Thor Dulay (“Lately”) and Penelope Matanguihan (“Superstar”), while Maki Ricafort (“Every Breath You Take”) and Morissette Amon (“What About Love”) will battle for Team Sarah.

Representing Team Bamboo are Lee Grane (“Losing My Religion”) and Paolo Onesa (“Skyfall”), and for Team Lea, Darryl Shy (“Balita”) and Mitoy (“Paano”).

Which among them deserve to get through the next round of the competition, according to the viewing public and the coaches?

But before getting on the Live Show stage, the Top 16 artists will perform in a special jamming session tonight where they will sing requested musical pieces from fans and celebrities.

“The Voice of the Philippines” airs every Saturday, 9 p.m. and every Sunday, 8:15 p.m. on ABS-CBN. (FREEMAN)
