“When I won Princess of the World 2017, I was just ten years old. It was truly surprising and unbelievable. I am grateful and honored to have been given the opportunity to raise the flag and pride as a Filipino,” she said.
Espinoza recently launched her debut single, “Pangako Mo,” which won Original Song at the Parai Musical International Awards in Chennai, India, and at the Global Music Awards 2024 in California. The song’s music video was also honored at the World Music and Independent Film Festival in Virginia, United States.

“As a TNT alumna, I felt inspired and proud of Kuya Sofronio as he raised our Filipino flag high. He showed the world how capable Filipinos are on the international stage. Though we may not be in the same TNT batch and year, I felt so honored to step on the stage he once stepped in—along with other great singers who have competed in Tawag ng Tanghalan,” she said.

“If God provided me an opportunity to sing to a global audience again, I would gladly take the chance to perform for people around the world. It’s been a while since I’ve last raised the Philippine flag in an international competition held in Bulgaria, Europe, where I won a gold medal in the vocal category. I’d definitely love to compete internationally once more,” added the young singer.
Espinoza also shared that she plans to release more songs about her experiences as a young musician, as she also stated that she wishes to collaborate with Broadway superstar Lea Salonga in the future.
