Ramdam na raw ni Sofia Gonzalez ang pressure ng isang baguhan sa industriya ngayong full blast na ang kanyang singing career.
Nakadagdag pa na parehong kilala sa lipunan ang kanyang mga magulang.
Ang ina ni Sofia ay ang dating actress at ngayon ay mayor ng Tacloban City na si Cristina "Kring Kring" Gonzales at ang ama niya ay ang dating mayor ng naturang lungsod na si Alfred Romualdez.
Pahayag ng Viva talent, “Yeah, there's a pressure 'cause it's like I have to be like them or better than them.
“It's hard, but we're different people although we're related to each other.
“We really can't compare 'cause we have different styles.”
Nakausap ng PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) at ilang miyembro ng press ang baguhang singer sa Stephanie Smokehouse, sa Tacloban City, noong Linggo, September 25.
ON LOVE TEAM & BASHERS. Nakakontrata si Sofia ng limang taon sa Viva Entertainment Inc. at nagsimula na siyang mag-record ng ilang kanta para sa kanyang first album under Viva Records.
Gaano na ba siya kahanda sa kalarakan sa showbiz?
Katulad na nga ng pagli-link sa kanya sa mga aktor para mas umingay ang kanyang pangalan.
Aniya, “It's just like... fake?
“I don't know, if Viva wants to do it, I guess... I'm not sure, I don't know.
“I really don't know, I don't care, I just want to make music.
“I'm really scared if I’m gonna have a love team 'cause I don't wanna be bashed so much.
“They're some kind of jealous, and I'm scared.”
Sakali namang balingan siya ng bashers, sabi ni Sofia, “I'll close my laptop.
“It's like, if you don't want the hate, then don't read it.
“Why would you, ‘cause it's gonna affect you, right?
“If you're gonna be affected, why would you be affected? As if it's true, di ba?”
Handa na siyang mawala ang kanyang privacy bilang isa na siyang entertainer?
Sabi ng 17-year-old singer, “That's what it is, e.
“You can't... you have to deal with it, you have to face it.
“I don't know, it's like... I just wanna make music.
“I just have to deal with it na lang, I have no choice, right?
“That's the prize you have to pay if you wanna follow your dreams.”
INSPIRED BY YENG. Samantala, sobrang idolo raw ni Sofia si Yeng Constantino.
Gusto nga raw niya itong maka-duet.
“I wanna sing with Yeng, I'm gonna cry!
“Gosh, she's like my idol!
“I met her before, she came here [in Tacloban] before, she had a concert here.
“I was like eleven when I met her.”
Gusto rin daw niyang pasalamatan si Yeng dahil ito ang nagbigay ng inspirasyon sa kanyang pumasok sa music industry.
