The pop girl group called “La Diva” is composed of Jonaly Viray, Aicelle Santos and Maricris Garcia, who are winners of a singing contest “Pinoy Pop Superstar.” Viray is the 1st grand champion of the singing contest, Garcia is the 3rd Pinoy Pop Superstar Champion and Santos, on the other hand was a runner up in the second season.
