ACTOR and“It’ s Showtime” host Jhong Hilario is beaming with pride after his two- year- old daughter Sarina captured the hearts of social media users with her rendition of the song “Fly Me to the Moon.”
The video, shared on YouTube, quickly gained over a million views in just six days, leaving Jhong overwhelmed with the support his daughter is receiving.
“Tumatayo yung balahibo ko! Sobrang thankful, sobrang nakaka- amaze lang na at her young age marami na siya nai- inspire, marami na siya napapatawa, napapaiyak. Kumbaga ang dami na niyang followers. Sobrang blessed,” Jhong told ABS-CBN News on Monday.
“Sa una hindi ko akalain na magiging ganoon siya ka smart pero ito na lang siguro ‘yung magiging positive sa akin during pandemic na natutukan ko siya. Kahit hindi pa siya nagsasalita, kinakausap ko siya. Kahit baby na baby pa, pinaparinig ko agad ng music, mga old music,” he said.
When asked if he would allow his daughter to enter showbiz, Jhong said it would depend on whether Sarina might enjoy it.
“Hindi natin alam, bigla na lang siya naging ganyan.
I mean, bigla dumami ‘yung fans niya sa tulong ng partner ko, si Maia kasi siya naman ‘ yung kumukuha ng videos. Kung ano ‘yung mae- enjoy ni
Sarina,” he said.
Jhong advised his fellow parents to talk to their children because this plays a crucial role in their development.
He also mentioned that while Sarina enjoys creating her own short vlogs, they never pressure her to do so, as they believe that i nteraction with parents holds more significance than screen time.
As Sarina approaches her third birthday on March 27, Jhong revealed that she has been invited by Hong Kong Disneyland for an allexpenses-paid trip.
