YouTube singing sensation Maria Aragon signed a contract on Friday for a record deal with Star Records.
Aside from doing her first solo album, the 11-year-old singer will also guest in the upcoming concert of Yeng Constantino to sing "Hawak Kamay."
Aragon will also be the voice behind the new rendition of Lea Salonga's hit "You're My Home" for the movie "Way Back Home" of Katherine Bernardo and Julia Montes for Star Cinema.
Argon said she still could not believe all these blessings coming her way.
"It's just a really big opportunity and I feel so blessed," she said.
Her mother Menchie likewise said she never thought her daughter's dream would one day come true.
"Happy. Sobrang happy," she said.
But aside from the promising career of her daughter, Menchie is also glad that the record deal paved the way for their whole family to return to the Philippines after 14 years.
After Aragon's showbiz commitments, the whole family plans to go to Ormoc so the young singer can meet her grandmother and other relatives.
