She is known as one of the
Philippines’ top teen stars whose popularity started with lead roles in highly
rated GMA Network soap operas like “First Time”, “Pilyang Kerubin”, “Nita
Negirta” and recently, “Paroa: Ang Kuwento ni Mariposa”. She has also appeared
in top grossing movies such as “Ang Darling Kong Aswang”, “Si Agimat at si
Enteng Kabisote”, “Tween Academy: Class of 2012”, “The Road”, “Ang Panday 2” and “Sossy
Problems”. She is also one of today’s most in-demand young endorsers.
Now what used to be tween queen turned
teen queen Barbie Forteza adds another facet to her young entertainment
career—singing. She finally released her debut album under MCA Music (Universal
Music Philippines). Simply self-titled,
the album fits Barbie’s personality perfectly- bubbly, fun and wholesome.
As special treat to her fans, Barbie
will hold an album launch and fans day on June 2, 5pm at 3rd Floor of SM North
EDSA The Block. Grab a copy of her album which will be sold by Astroplus to get
a free poster and have it signed by Barbie herself after the show.
It includes the carrier single “Meron
Ba” about having a crush on someone but could not tell anyone including the
person she admires. Its music video is now out on MYX directed by J Pacena and
also stars fellow GMA artist Jeric Gonzales as Barbie’s love interest. The
album, produced by Francis Guevarra, also features her version of Jolina
Magdangal’s “Laging Tapat”- another song about young love, the bouncy track
“Upside Down” (originally from the A-Teens) and an original song “Wala Lang”-
written by Jude Gitamondoc. “Wala Lang” also comes with a dance version for
those who want to groove to Barbie’s music. All tracks have minus one versions
for those who want to sing-along to Barbie’s songs.
“I am so thankful to MCA Music for
trusting me and giving me a chance to share my talents. I can’t wait to share
it to my fans who supports me all the way,” Barbie said.
Also catch Barbie Forteza on June 9 at
SM Marikina and on June 30 at Pavilion Mall, Binan, Laguna. All shows start at
