MANILA, Philippines - K-La Rivera (photo) emerged as one of the winners together with Joyce Pring and Mike Advincula in this year’s MYX VJ Search Finals Night which was recently held at The Block Atrium in SM North EDSA. She now joins the league of MYX VJs like Luis Manzano, Iya Villania, Nikki Gil, Chino Lui Pio and Bianca Roque.
She has previously wowed the audience with her brilliant voice on ABS-CBN’s Star Power where she was dubbed as the R&B Sweetheart from Calgary, Canada. With her MYX VJ stint, K-La is determined to show a new side of her as an eloquent host.
K-La is no stranger in joining talent contests. In 2007, she was discovered through the David Foster Star Search in Canada. She was given a once in a lifetime chance of performing with David Foster himself at the Jack Singer Concert Hall. She was also invited to perform with Foster at various events around Canada including an appearance on Canada AM in Vancouver.
Aside from being a MYX VJ, she is regularly seen on ASAP Rocks. K-La will be making her theater debut in Atlantis Productions’ In the Heights where she plays Nina Rosario, the 19-year old Stanford student who returns to her old neighborhood with some surprising news.
“I’m happy that everything is falling into its right place,” K-La says.
