Mark Cando, The Voice PH Contestant Sings For Crush Toni Gonzaga And Joins Team APL

It was a dream come true for 24-year-old Mark Cando. Not only did he clinch a spot on the team of Coach apl.de.ap, he also got to serenade his crush, Toni Gonzaga, during the blind auditions of "The Voice of the Philippines," which aired on Sunday.



While the 24-year-old managed to impress the Black Eyed Peas member with his performance of Brenda Russell's "Get Here," Sarah Geronimo had a few pointers for him.

Coach Bamboo Mañalac echoed the comments of Geronimo but gave Cando credit for the way he presented himself onstage.

At one moment, 'The Voice' coaches become love coaches when Cando was asked what was his inspiration and answered that he admires Toni Gonzaga.

The coaches then called Gonzaga, who was backstage, to come out and meet her admirer.

Coach Apl gave the 24-year-old a rose and a pick-up line he can try on the "Voice" host.

Coach Lea Salonga also told the contestant to serenade Gonzaga with the song he just performed at the blind auditions.

Cando did not waste his chance, held Gonzaga's hands and swayed the "Voice" host while singing her a song.
