Andrea Brillantes fulfilled a dream of becoming a singer through “Lyric & Beat,” which makes the musical a very special project for her.

“Pero, na-realize ko na sintunado po ako. Three years old pa lang po ako, pop star na ang gusto kong maging pero hindi po siya para sa akin,” Brillantes said during the face-to-face press conference for the iWant series last Thursday July 14.

(But I realized that I sing out of tune. As early as I was three years old, I already wanted to be a pop star but it was not meant for me.)

“Hindi namin inakala na in a million years ay magkakaroon kami ng musical. Lalo na po ako. Ang tagal ko na po dito (sa industriya) pero never po akong napasama sa musical na kami rin po ang lead” she added.

(We never thought that in a million years we will have a musical. Especially me. I’ve been in the industry for so long but I have never been a part of a musical where [I] play the lead.)

Brillantes is also looking forward to working in a musical because in it, she will get to sing, dance and act all, at the same time.

Andrea plays Lyric, a bubbly and aspiring singer who will form a special friendship with Beat (Seth Fedelin), a soft-spoken dancer.

Directed by Dolly Dulu, “Lyric & Beat” is the first iWantTFC original musical series. It also stars Darren Espanto, AC Bonifacio, Jeremy G, Angela Ken, Sheena Belarmino, Awra Briguela and Kyle Echarri. It will stream for free on Aug. 10. JB
