He may be small, but six-year-old Fabio Santos was totally terrific on the stage of The Voice Kids Season 5 when he performed his version of Sampaguita’s “Nosi Balasi” during the Blind Auditions, which made Coach Martin Nievera turn his chair in the last few seconds.

And during the interview with his Mommy Farha Lagueras, we found out that having good singing skills apparently runs in their family, with her younger sister Fatima Lagueras, or more popular by her mononym FANA, joining the first season of The Voice Teens in 2017 and performing regularly on ASAP Natin ‘To at present. According to her, FANA has been so supportive of her adorable nephew as she personally trains him to sing whenever they’re at home.

Since they’re very close and Fabio also dreams to be a singer, too, like his tita, host Robi Domingo sought the help of FANA help to relay the good news to him, which truly made her happy. He easily won the hearts of everyone as soon as he stepped on the stage, and more so when he belted out his head-banging audition piece with matching cute hand gestures. The two also had the chance to perform a duet onstage upon the request of the coaches.

During their interview on The Voice Kids DigiTV, the Kapamilya singer wasn’t able to contain her joy and pride as her beloved nephew made it through the Blind Auditions. She told hosts Jeremy G and Elha Nympha: “Siyempre, sobra akong proud no’ng nakita ko siya na papunta sa stage. Pero, like, during talaga, kinakabahan ako kasi iba pala talaga kapag ikaw na ‘yong manonood kaysa sa kakanta. Eh si Fabio, no’ng tinanong ko siya, hindi naman daw siya masyadong kinakabahan. Pero ako, para na akong hihimatyin sa kaba.

On the other hand, Fabio confessed that he was actually not nervous at all during his performance, as he obviously imbibed his Tita FANA’s advice for him to just “enjoy the moment” and “sing from the heart”.
