Filipino Joseph Apostol has made it to the battle rounds of The Voice UK after wowing the judges during the blind auditions. The 21-year-old from Kent, England sang Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow in his auditions and caught the attention of judges Jessie J and Sir Tom Jones.
Both Jessie J and Sir Tom Jones, who pressed their 'I Want You' buttons for Joseph wanted the Filipino to be in their respective teams but in the end, Joseph chose to join Sir Tom Jones' team. Joseph's mother, who is backstage supporting her son, also wanted Joseph to choose Tom Jones.
Judge Will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas, though did not turn his chair for Joseph, got excited upon learning that Joseph is a Filipino. Will then talked about his Fil-Am bestfriend Apl.de.Ap (who is also a judge in our local version of The Voice) and other Pinoy stuffs such as chicken adobo and pancit. The other judge of The Voice UK is Danny O'Donoghue of Irish band The Script, who has been linked recently with Janine Tugonon.
Joseph Apostol moved to the UK when he was 10 years old when his mother was hired as a nurse. Watch below the full audition video of Joseph Apostol in The Voice UK.
