Ice Seguerra asked the public not to compare him and Jake Zyrus
Singer-songwriter Ice Seguerra shared his wish for his fellow singer and transman Jake Zyrus.
Ice, formerly known as Aiza Seguerra, started his career in showbiz as a child star. Eventually, he made the apparent biggest decision in his life and career.
His fans remained by his side despite the transition he made. Ice is now happily married to his wife Liza Dino and continues to do what he loves in the entertainment industry.
Just like Ice Seguerra, Jake Zyrus also went through a tough time when he decided to have his transition as well. Jake, formerly known as belter singer Charice Pempengco, received negative reactions when he came out.
In a recent interview, based on the article in PEP, Ice said that he understands what Jake went through because he went through that phase also. However, Ice is thankful that he has people around him who love and support him all the way.
“Well, ako kasi I’ve been there. I’ve been in a very bad place for a time. My wife knows that. Siguro ano, ang sinuwerte ko lang, may mga tao na nasa paligid ko na talagang may malasakit at may pagmamahal,” the former child star said.
Ice also shared what he wished for Jake. “So ako, that’s my wish for him, na he will find his wife na who will support him, love him, and will show him love and acceptance,” he said.
He added that this is very important for a person to have someone to be there beside them no matter what happens. Ice said that he got lucky and he hopes Jake will find that person in his life also.
Having a good partner, Ice said that he was able to know the truthfulness of certain things in his life.
Ice Seguerra also shared his thoughts about being compared to Jake Zyrus. “Ako, I honestly wish that people would stop comparing us. Kasi, okay, we’re both trans, but, hindi porke pareho kaming trans, pareho kami ng journey,” Ice said, adding that they also have a different destination.
