Herlene Budol gears up for a new hobby that complements her modeling, pageantry, and acting careers.
Surprising fans today, December 28, 2023, the Miss Philippines Tourism 2023 titleholder revealed that she is taking voice lessons, thanks to former manager Wilbert Tolentino.
Herlene posted on Instagram snaps from her first class along with the caption (published as is): “Thank you Mima ko @sirwil75.
“Yung kht indi na cya Manager ko pero andyan parin cya thru thick & thin at pinupush nya ako mag voice lesson at classmate ko narin si Little KaFreshness Willard King Tolentino.
“Masaya pala ang Musika.”
Guided by the trusted coach from Kimusikero Music Worhip Tutorial, Herlene is set to explore a diverse range of musical genres.
She added, “Yung may assesment ng coach ko si @kimusikero ng Jazz, Pop, Ballad, Blues, Rock, Hip hop, Classical, Electro, New age, Reggae atbp.
“Ciempre Abangan ang bagong Single na ilalabas ko sa 2024 – “KAIN TAYO””
Meanwhile, Herlene’s comment section was filled with praise from her followers, many of whom complimented her for undertaking another activity.
Herlene’s jump into the music scene with the single “Kain Tayo” comes days after massive scrutiny regarding leaked private conversations between her and Magandang Dilag co-star Rob Gomez.
The most viral part of the messages were the “kainan” exchanges between them.
While the Data Privacy Act restricts PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) from publishing the screenshots, the beauty queen addressed why such a word slipped into their dialogue.
In a post uploaded on December 22, 2023, Herlene defended herself and wrote (published as is): “Yung batuhan ng mga script para pang kabisado sa mga linyahan ay nahaluan ng mga joke at one liner tulad ng salitang ‘kain’ ganyan na agad ang tingin nyo sa akin.
“Sumakay lang ako sa mga joke dahil Komedyante ako kht alam ko finiflirt ako.”
