Contest (Zephanie Dimaranan's Life Story) | Maalaala Mo Kaya Recap (With Eng Subs)

At a very young age, Zephanie (Yesha Camile) is blessed with a natural-born talent. Despite provoking jealousy from her sister Nessa (Rhed Bustamante), she resolves to make her family proud by pursuing her dream of becoming a famous singer. However, this proves not an easy feat as Zephanie (Maris Racal) often faces failure in amateur singing contests and TV competitions. As time goes by, Zephanie draws strength and inspiration from her family, who stands by her and helps pick herself up in order to try again. She soon stands on one of the biggest stage in the country to finally reach for the stars that are destined to be hers. (With English Subtitles)

Proud teacher of zeph here. I’ve seen her grow and overcome the struggles she had. Can’t help but to be proud of you zeph ☺️

[@justify1089]

Teacher?

[@johncyrilvirrey9471]

Kuya pede po ba magtanong sa inyo?

[@jandyantonio2515]

Ang galing ni zephany

[@clydeumayam4707]

People are asking "teacher?" Maybe he is a teacher in school because zephanie is once a student, lol hahaha. 🤣😁🐼
It just an assumption correct me if I'm wrong. :)

[@itsmedave4783]

Congratssss teacher😀

why r u begging for likes

[@josephinemarquez2760]

@@@lifeisgood441 isa ka lang sabi mo FANS ka edi dapat fan ka di ka puro tao like FanS

[@lifeisgood441]

Josephine Marquez gets mo ba yung emoticon sa last part? It means I'm trying to cracked a joke. Kasi yun yung comment niya "Fans" daw!

[@keesh4276]

Zephanie - 'It's not about how many times you fall, it's about how many times you rise up"
Indeed, a very inspiring story. Way to go Zeph! I believe God is always with you 😇💚

Nagustuhan ko parents ni ZEPH, napaka supportive. Lalakas ang loob ng Bata. Hahasa ang talent.

[@renzolegarda3262]

na iyak talaga ako 😥😥

[@desang7239]

Naiyak rin ako, hindi lang dahil sa story, kundi dahil sa inggit rin, i admit it... kasi hindi ganoon ka supportive parents ko. Lagi nilang sinasabi na puro ka cellphone at wattpad wala ka naman makukuhang pera diyan.
Naiintindihan ko naman sila, ang dahilan, pero hindi ko lang maiwasan masaktan, nakakawalang kompyansa at tiwala sa sarili.
I'm aspiring writer 💙

[@jhay-arariem360]

you are serious Zephanie Dimaranan the amount you went through im proud of you you are really good at singing and you are still beautiful

[@readbooks28]

I just love the way her parents kept going.

[@kuyazzzzz98]

Zephanie is just like Pia Wurtzbach. Ilang beses sumali sa mga competition and till the end nanalo rin 💖

[@k1payforlayf739]

Oo nga noh

[@iameloiza1027]

Same with catriona din

[@jamaicaevangelista9277]

Galing mo po ate

[@watee1094]

Lol, i disagree from the phrase"till the end"! It has never been the end, It' just started!😊

[@HJ-mg3dg]

@@iameloiza1027 anlayo naman ng kay Catriona, destined talaga yun sa sobrang galing. Nanalo sya ng MWP at malaking previlege na yun tapos 5th place sa MW as luto. laging 1st time sumali sa gustong title pero nananalo. Unlike kay Pia and Zeph na try ng try hanggang maging best for the title.

[@jenniferpradomacaranas2642]

Grabe pla pinag daananan mo zephanie. Deserve mo tlga yan. Buti anjan c papa god n bingay sau yan talent mo. Congrrats ulit👏🏻👏🏻😘

[@atengbayan1636]

Galing ni Mariz omarte naiyak ako bigla.. hindi ako fan ni Zeph before hindi ko nga pinanuod ang Idol Phil. hindi ko pinagka interesan hangang auditions lang. but because of this 19 min recap of Zeph's life story. She gained my respect and worth to support for. God bless Zeph. you have a big heart. I love what your father advice!

[@marvinblance5602]

What a struggle Zeph! You are the complete example of a Champion! God bless you...

[@crisdarwinbagasin5703]

I love her story she didn't won a single match but she didn't give up until she got the victory

[@seniorito4356]

I don't know why I keep crying watching this. people just saw the results but not the history of every competitor behind the result of the competition. Thank You Maalaala mo kaya for such an inspiring story. I learned how to see every competitor to look not just the result but the story of every competitor not just in singing but in all the competition. Salute to all the competitors out there. Keep it up. Bucket list, I want to write my story to this show...

I love you Zephanie💐💐 ndi magsasawa at ndi ka iiwan🤚🤚
(💗cerinemiguel)

[@wynsday_]

She reminds me of Ivana Alawi's story, maraming rejections until makamit niya 'yong dreams niya. Sabi nga nang madaming business man/woman, 'You can't reach your dreams when you don't recieve rejections.' At kung makuha mo agad o makamit mo agad, mabilis kang babagsak o tutumba. Kaya you need rejections in life to reach your dreams.

napapaiyak aq sa story mo idol zeph, grabi... congrats ulit sau dahil nakamit mo na ang pangarap mo..

[@pipolsbloog]

omg! ilang beses ako pinaiyak mo Miss Zeph., Now I understand kaya pala na sa bawat kanta mo parang may init ang bawat bigkas na salita yun pala ay ang pangarap mo ay pangarap ng pamilya mo at pangarap ng lahat. Kaya sa tuwing kumakanta ka ay parang lahat ng tao ay kumakanta din sumasabay sayo. Kaya punong puno ng emosyon ang mga kanta mo kasi HINDI LANG PALA IKAW ANG KUMAKANTA PARA SA PANGARAP MO PATI NA RIN KAMI. Patuloy lang Mss Zeph kahit wrong timing na nagka pandemic na at nasara pa yung ABS CBN . Alam mo parang may message ang yung buhay mo na "wag ka sumoko" sa pag abot ng yung pangarap kahit guguho pa ang mundo tuloy parin.Katulad ng una mong napagdaanan sa pagkanta may mga times na gusto mo ng sumuko peru nag patuloy ka.. same process lang ang gawin mo miss Zeph, Isang salita lang ang gagawin mo "PATULOY". Pwedi ka ba gumawa ng kantang ang pamagat ay "PATULOY LANG"?Nice kasi , It reflects your own personality at may message din sa mga tagasubaybay mo at sa buong mundo na ang buhay ay dapat patuloy lang wag susuko. Idol po kita and my crush kahit may crush kana ng iba that starts with letter "R" . God Bless
