'The Clash': Marian Pimenta says singing competition brought her out of her comfort zone

GMA Network5 days ago
Even though her 'The Clash' journey ended on Sunday, Marian Pimenta still has high hopes for her singing career.
The college student from Lipa, Batangas told GMA News Online in an interview that although she lost, 'If matapos po 'yung journey ko sa 'The Clash,' sa 'The Clash' lang po 'yun.'
''Di po 'ko titigil kasi ito po 'yung first competition ko and bata pa 'ko. Ang dami ko pang opportunities na pwedeng ma-grab.'
Marian also said that her main intent in joining the competition was for her voice to be heard, and to prove wrong those who do not believe in her. Another goal was to show people that singers of any genre can join singing competitions.
'Na-normalize na 'yung 'The Clash' is puro biritan,' she said. 'Hindi lang laging nabirit, parang diversity, magiging open-minded po mga tao na ah, sa 'The Clash' pala, hindi lang sila natingin sa mataas ang boses or mababa, natingin sila kung ano talaga 'yung ganda ng boses mo.'
'Gusto ko po ipakita sa kanila na 'yung boses ko, kahit hindi maingay, hindi siya 'yung parang malakas, 'di loud, 'di ako super confident, may mararating pa rin po ako,' she added.
More than that, she hopes her 'The Clash' journey will be a way for her to inspire those with social anxiety and lacking self-confidence.
She looked back on how she previously feared public speaking, socializing, and sharing her thoughts, adding that the show taught her to get out of her comfort zone.
'Every event na nangyari or every situation na napasok ko sa 'The Clash,' lagi siyang may advantage sa 'kin. Lagi siyang may binibigay sa 'kin,' Marian said.
'Ngayon po, nalabas ko 'yung personality ko nang maingay ako, nalalabas ko 'yung mga gusto kong sabihin, nakakapag kulit po ako. 'Yun po 'yung biggest achievement ko.'
In a previous interview with GMA News Online, Marian likened her 'The Clash' journey to 'The Scientist' by Coldplay, saying that she gained opportunities because of the show. —JCB, GMA Integrated News
