<p>Michael Bublé shared his reaction to the win of his mentee, Sofronio Vasquez, in the season 26 of <em>The Voice.</em></p><p>Reflecting on the triumph of Sofronio in the competition, Michael highlighted that the singer&#x27;s victory serves as a ray of hope for the Filipino singer&#x27;s family.</p><p>&quot;<em>I can&#x27;t imagine what it must feel like for him. We don&#x27;t know, I&#x27;d know, but you all don&#x27;t know the adversity this kid&#x27;s been through. You don&#x27;t know that there&#x27;s been real life stuff happening at home with family, real serious stuff</em>,&quot; Michael said in an interview with <em>Access Hollywood.</em></p><p>&quot;<em>And the fact that he&#x27;s come through all of this and he knows they are watching him and he is the reason that they are able to get up and keep going, I don&#x27;t think that there has ever been a competition, a television program in America where the stakes were so high for a person. And so I think... I know that when they called your name tonight it wasn&#x27;t just about a career it was a bigger thing</em>.&quot;</p><p>Sofronio echoed what Michael said, stating: &quot;It was hope for my family, and I was able to give them the best holiday ever and I know that up above they are watching me and very happy for me.&quot;</p><div><br/></div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-0" src="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DDbR8M1RZ9h/embed/captioned/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A862128.200000003%2C%22ls%22%3A861541.200000003%2C%22le%22%3A861971.700000003%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="969" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-0" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><div><br/></div><p>On what advice he gave the Filipino singer prior to the finals night, Michael shared: &quot;<em>I just called him I said my brother God has plans for you and I don&#x27;t know if the plan is for you to win The Voice but if it isn&#x27;t, there is a plan to do it another way. And I&#x27;ll be there behind you to support you, and I&#x27;m glad that this was the choice that the Lord made for him and I hope last night that I gave him peace with that</em>.&quot;</p><p>Meanwhile, in an interview with Yong Chavez for ABS-CBN News, Sofronio remarked that each of his performances in the competition was his way of honoring his late father&#x27;s passion for music.</p><div><iframe width="1398" height="730" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/N5NFmWbIvGk" title="1 on 1 with &#x27;The Voice&#x27; US champion Sofronio Vasquez" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><p>&quot;<em>My dad was just an angel and every performance I always think of him in honor for his passion for music... And during the last performance for the finale like with the song &#x27;A Million Dreams,&#x27; I really feel that he was with me and in any way</em>.&quot;</p><p>On how he overcame the challenges he encountered in his life, Sofronio relayed: &quot;<em>I really think that the way to move on and to move further for a possible and a beautiful journey in life is just to keep going</em>.&quot;</p><p>&quot;<em>We just have to try and dream. I was just dreaming. It was really impossible to think back then. And that moment when Carson Daly called my name, parang nag-break down ako because it&#x27;s like a flashback of every rejection, every redirection na oh ito pala &#x27;yun... Now it was like a culmination of ito pala &#x27;yun, thank you Lord</em>,&quot; he stated. </p>
