A 20-year-old girl from Digos City, Davao del Sur was named the first ever grand winner of the Philippine franchise of a world famous talent show X Factor aired by ABS-CBN.

With her unique style of delivering her music, KZ has captured the heart of the viewers ever since the show started (back from the audition series).

With the goal to prove that "Hindi lamang mga biritera at magaganda ang may karapatan sa music industry," KZ's star did shine for the show's last performance night held at PAGCOR theater.

She was announced as the winner with an overwhelming landslide vote of more than 50% of the total votes. KZ was handed a check worth 4 million in peso and will sign a recording deal with Star Music.

KZ Tandingan almost lost her voice because of throat polyps when she was in high school. For now, let us all keep an eye to the career of KZ on which I am sure, she will make it big given that she will keep her feet on the ground without changing her image from wholesome to daring (I may refer daring as sexy or tomboy-type, no KZ please remain wholesome).

KZ, keep focused to God. May God guide you and may not the power of money and fame put you away from Him!
