Isa sa naging sobrang saya sa pagwawagi ng kauna-unahang transgender na nanalo sa Discovery International Pop Music Festival na ginanap sa Varna, Bulgaria sa Europe ay ang mentor nitong si Net 25 newscaster, Philippine socialite, at produkto ng Star Magic na si Eduard Bañez.
Ayon nga kay Eduard, “We dedicate this award to all the people in the Philippines who are united in solidarity.
“I would like to thank all OFWs who believe in my friend and helped her pursue her dreams. The unity of Filipinos is shown by all who voted for her and believed in her talent.
“Congratulations Angel for getting 2nd runner-up out of 57 countries who battles International Pop Festival. Mabuhay, Angel. Mabuhay Pilipinas.”
Mula pa lang sa umpisa ng laban ni Angel Bonilla ay nand’yan na at nakasuporta si Eduard. Ipinagmamalaki niya ang mga transgender dahil hindi lang sa kongreso o pulitika umaariba, kundi pati sa entertainment.
