'The Clash': Tombi Romulo thankful for a second chance at the singing competition
Tombi Romulo is the latest hopeful to get eliminated on 'The Clash 2025,' but she remains thankful for the opportunity. In an interview with GMA News Online, the Cavite native said she is she gave her best. 'Actually 'pag nanalo ka, bonus na lang 'yun eh,' Tombi said. Tombi competed in 'The Clash' Season 2, and returned as a Clashbacker to redeem herself from the loss. In the previous season, Tombi was unable to sing properly because she was sick. 'Ang gusto ko lang po, maitawid ko 'yung piyesa ko nang maayos para ma-redeem ko po 'yung sarili ko sa nangyari before,' Tombi said. She added, 'Happy pa rin ako. Pasalamatan ko pa rin sila direk. Direk, thank you so much kasi kung hindi dahil sa inyo, wala ulit ako dito sa 'The Clash.' Thankful pa din.' Tombi said she is leaving the competition with lots of lessons learned, like how to bond with the Clashbackers, New Clashers, and the staff. ''Yung lesson po kasi na naranasan ko doon is kailangan palaging matulog nang maayos, ingatan 'yung health. Kasi kapag may sakit ang katawan, ang hirap. 'Pag may sakit, ng hirap mong kumanta,' she said. 'Pinaka best na ano ko pa rin 'tong 'The Clash 2025' kasi parang ang saya to be back.' 'Sobrang happy and thankful ako na isa ako sa mga napili na ituloy 'yung journey ko na nasimulan ko before.' Tombi also looked back on the challenges she experienced this season, and said it was as if she was competing for the first time again. 'Kasi ilang years na po, nagbago na po. Tapos may new Clashers pa na magagaling so nakaka-pressure,' she said, and added that this season had so many twists. Meanwhile, one of her biggest achievements was winning Round 1 when she beat out Jeniffer Maravilla. 'Biggest achievement po sa 'kin itong piyesa ko, maitawid ko nang maayos. Eh sobra sobra pa 'yung binigay ni God, nanalo pa po 'ko." On social media following her elimination, Tombi said "nagtapos man ang journey ko sa The Clash, mananatili pa din akong palaban 'di lang sa contest, pati sa mga hamon sa buhay." If Tombi would have won, she said the first thing she would do is to thank the Lord and go to church. She also would use the prize money to start businesses. In a previous interview, Tombi described her 'The Clash' journey through the song 'Patuloy ang Pangarap' by Angeline Quinto, because she was given a second chance as a Clashbacker, to pursue her dreams, and redeem her loss from Season 2. 'The Clash' airs at 7:15 p.m. on Sundays on GMA Network. —JCB, GMA Integrated News

Bea Sacramento exits 'The Clash' but says she will not stop singing
Baguio City Clashbacker Bea Sacramento has become the latest hopeful to leave 'The Clash.' As her 'The Clash' journey ends once again, Bea admitted she was sad, but 'that doesn't mean na titigil nanaman ako. Hindi.' Bea cited judge Christian Bautista's comment to a fellow contestant about how 'Sa lahat ng bagay, may competition palagi, so kailangan ready ako.' 'Thank you pa rin kasi ang laking opportunity nito para sa 'kin," Bea said. "At least, na-i-showcase ko sa lahat na ito na 'yung Bea na inaabangan ng lahat. Ito na 'yung Bea na more character, ibang iba sa dati.' Bea previously competed in Season 1 but was eliminated early. The livestreamer and band singer is aware she made a lot of people happy with her second stint on 'The Clash,' which makes her thankful for the opportunity. 'Hindi mo kailangan matawag na grand champion sa competition para lang matawag na success ka,' she said. 'You can be successful in other ways.' Looking back, Bea said she had to prepare a lot because the new clashers and Clashbackers were all so great. 'Hindi pwedeng lalamya-lamya ka kasi puksaan pala talaga dito sa 'The Clash.' 'Yan 'yung mga na-realize ko before ako sumali this season kaya talagang nag-prepare din ako nang bongga.' She added, 'Takot ako nung Season 1 kasi ang dami talagang magagaling. Parang hindi ako naniniwala sa sarili ko, sa sarili kong talent, sa boses ko.' But years later, and during her time on 'The Clash 2025,' Bea had learned so much more about singing that she was able to develop her own style. 'Kaya nung babalik akong 'The Clash,' finally, makikita nila 'yung bagong Bea.' Bea said her biggest achievement was making her supporters happy. 'Nung Round 1, [naisip ko] sana talaga manalo ako kasi ayokong masayang 'yung pagpunta nila, 'yung pag-suporta nila sa 'kin kasi syempre galing pa silang Baguio,' she said. In a previous interview with GMA News Online, she compared her "The Clash" experience to Journey's 'Don't Stop Believing.' 'Ako, naniniwala ako na, hindi lang ayun 'yung kaya kong gawin," she said. "Naniniwala pa rin ako sa sarili ko na I can do more.' Following her exit, Bea took to social media to thank "The Clash" for the opportunity. "No regrets on joining this competition again. Mahal ko kayong lahat, maraming salamat sa mga sumuporta," she added. 'The Clash' airs at 7:15 p.m. on Sundays only on GMA Network. —JCB/LA, GMA Integrated News
