Liezel Garcia, a star in the making

Raised in Mindoro, Lizel Garcia symbolizes the dreams of every Filipino who have gone abroad to come back and finally find their roots. After auditioning in Dubai, Liezel earned the right to be one of the scholars in the Pinoy Dream Academy House (PDA) in the ABS-CBN, Manila.

She admitted to have been influenced greatly by her lola who used to train her at 5 in the morning. She gained popularity in singing even when she was still young and reaped prizes in local singing contest in her hometown.

Liezel had her share of bitter memories, when they were abandoned by their father at the age of six. She met him again at the age of twenty and never came back.

Her unique voice during her performances marked a good imprint in her fans, making them long to see her performance every Saturday. She has since made it to be at the top position of four consecutive times reflective of her being chosen as a star scholar three times in a row.
