SM LITTLE STAR 2012 WINNERS ALIAH FRANZIN NAVAROO AND CHRISDANE ANDREU GALERO WITH RUNNERS-UP KAILEY ROSE KEMP, JULIAN PHILIP GONZALES AND SEBASTIAN NICOLAS BALLESTEROS

09 August 2013 — Winners of SM Little Stars 2011 recently toured China as part of their grand prize. 

Grant prize winners Aliah Franzin Navarro and Chrisdance Andreu Galero had a three-day tour of Xiamen, Jinjiang, and Gu Lang Island. Joining them were first runner-up winner Kelly Rose Kemp, second runner-up winner Julian Philip Gonzales and third runner-up winner Sebastian Nicholas Ballesteros, and their parents.

The kids had a chance to see the Taopi Entertainment Center before traveling to SM City Xiamen to watch and perform at the grand finals of SM Little Stars, where they bonded with their counterparts from SM’s China malls. They then traveled to SM Jinjiang and Gulangyu Island, the Island of Music known for its scenic beauty and appreciation for music.

This experience not only allowed them to learn about different cultures and travel to different cities but also open doors to careers in modeling, singing, dancing and acting at such a young age.

This year, SM Supermalls will again give talented kids the chance to shine in the SM Little Stars 2013 search. Over P2.5 million prizes are at stake for the winners plus scholarship, lessons, and a free trip to China for 5 days. Registration is ongoing at all SM Supermalls. Finalists will be announced on July 22 and the grand finals will be on Aug. 25.
