According
to Karla, since she was a kid she has a passion for music. As a matter of fact,
she was first joined in singing contest when she was 9 years old. So, singing
is not a new thing for her. These days are the hype of singing contest that’s

Lea
Salonga, one of the judges of the show commented that there was no problem with
Karla’s diction, she felt that there was something lack on her singing, but she
never told what it is. Despite of this, Lea and the other judges admired her
passion for music and humility in joining The Voice. Karla already accepted
even if she may lose in the contest. It is just okay for her if the judges didn’t
accept her. She assumed that even if she made it, she knew that the KatNiel fans
would vote for her and that is unfair to other contestants.
