Klarisse’s journey began with her first-runner-up finish on The Voice of the Philippines in 2013, followed by a successful music career that included a 2014 solo concert and a 2021 win on Your Face Sounds Familiar. Her PBB stint, however, marked a pivotal moment, reintroducing her to audiences and showcasing her versatility beyond singing.
This multifaceted appeal has evidently paid off, as her albums—featuring contest pieces and original tracks—have captured the hearts of listeners, leading to her unprecedented iTunes dominance.
