Kapamilya actress and singer Maris Racal has officially announced her return to the limelight with the release of her new single, ‘Perpektong Tao,’ set to drop today.
The announcement, made on Thursday, January 16, 2025, marks a significant moment for Maris following her involvement in a controversy late last year.
In a heartfelt post on her social media accounts, Maris described the song as a deeply personal piece inspired by her emotional journey over the past months.
“Writing this song healed me in ways I never thought possible,” Maris shared. She explained that ‘Perpektong Tao’ stems from a place of pain, regret, and the courage to move forward.

“It was born from a journey through pain, regret, and the courage to seek forgiveness—a reminder that even in our darkest moments, we can find light. I’m sharing this with the world, hoping it resonates with those who need it most,” she added.
The announcement follows a challenging period for Maris, who was linked to a cheating controversy involving Kapamilya actor Anthony Jennings and his ex-girlfriend, Jam Villanueva. Screenshots that circulated online in December 2024 suggested an alleged involvement between Maris and Anthony, sparking public speculation.
Maris addressed the issue at the time, stating that she was unaware of the actual status of Anthony and Jam’s relationship, emphasizing that she, too, felt like a victim of the situation.
Despite the challenges, Maris’s fans have rallied behind her, showing overwhelming support for her comeback. Many have expressed excitement over her new song, which they believe is a reflection of her growth and resilience.
This diss track is aimed straight at @missmarisracal .
She boldly declares, “Nilalasap na ang aking karma,” fully owning up to the consequences of her stupid actions.
It’s raw, unfiltered self-awareness, turning the mirror inward to confront her actions.#PerpektongTao |… https://t.co/e9Q9z1aN1a

contrary to the QRT na nagsasabi na mang “gagaslight” daw si Maris sa song, uhm well, the song is literally her admitting her mistakes.
“o jusko po, mapapatawad nyo pa ba ako? (humihingi ako ng tawad)”
this diva deserves a second chance! @MissMarisRacal#MarisRacal https://t.co/0ndDUJfLto
