Complex's new weekly feature "Who's That Girl?" spotlights an up-and-coming woman we've got our eye on.
If you caught the fight this weekend, we're pretty sure you got a glimpse of these girls too. Audiences got to pre-game with the Filipina trio, La Diva, comprised of former Pinoy Pop Superstars (the Filipino equivalent of American Idol) as they gave their rendition of "Lupang Hinirang," the national anthem of the Philippines. Since signing with GMA records, the group's had non-stop exposure on GMA tv, one of the leading television networks in their country. With the girls fresh-off-the-boat here in America, we decided to co-sign and showcase what the Philippines apparently already can't get enough of. Watch 5 clips and get familiar with La Diva below...
