ALLY on Her Global Era, the “Prim and Proper” Perception, and Thinking Beyond Numbers | S02E16

Hello everyone, my name is Chris Cantada and welcome to a new episode of Once and Always a Fanboy.

Today’s guest is part of a new generation of Asian artists redefining what it means to be global. She began her journey at a young age, training in South Korea before emerging as one of Thailand’s most exciting pop voices. Over the years, she has expanded beyond music into acting, while also continuing to evolve her artistry through collaborations across borders and cultures.

Now, at just 22, she’s stepping into a new chapter with her latest English single “but you”. Her visit to Manila marks the first stop in her international push, and I’m so honored that she’s on the show today.

Fangirls and fanboys, Achiraya "ALLY" Nitibhon!
