Viral crooner CJ Navato ruled the fourth week of “Your Face Sounds Familiar Season 3” after transforming into his idol, Justin Bieber.
CJ, who previously performed as music legends Jose Mari Chan, Frank Sinatra, and Rico J. Puno in the show, gave another strong performance that got the nod of his fellow celebrity performers and jury members Gary Valenciano, Ogie Alcasid, and Sharon Cuneta.
“Maraming, maraming salamat po. Sobrang nakaka-pressure nung gawin ito kasi idol na idol ko siya. Thank you po sa pag-confirm na okay ‘yung ginawa ko,” he said after receiving his P50,000 prize as the fourth weekly winner of the hit Kapamilya musical variety competition.
The former child star gets a tougher challenge next weekend as he is set to impersonate female rock icon Alanis Morissette. Two-time weekly winner Jhong Hilario, meanwhile, will perform as pal Vhong Navarro, the iDolls will transform into the Pointer Sisters, while last week’s winner Klarisse de Guzman will copy the look and voice of Minnie Riperton.
Christian Bables, who got to sing as – and sing with – Vina Morales last weekend, will take the stage as Francis M. Vivoree Esclito, on the other hand, will perform as Selena Gomez, Geneva Cruz will take on Madonna, and Lie Reposposa will perform as Sheryn Regis.
Aside from the jaw-dropping transformations and performances, viewers also enjoyed the funny banter led by the show’s host Luis Manzano, who even convinced the Megastar to do the Magandang Dilag challenge. Ogie’s alter ego Eydie Waw also gave a hilarious performance of “Maga Ako, Manas Ako.”
