He acknowledged that beginning his transition to a man by undergoing hormone replacement therapy is a "big risk." He is a singer after all and the treatment will no doubt have an effect on his voice, causing it to sound deeper.

But it is one risk Ice Seguerra is more than willing to take, as he admitted that he's no longer happy with his female body.

"It's hard to wake up everyday seeing that you are in this body and alam mo na hindi naman ito dapat iyon," he said during his interview on "Tonight with Boy Abunda" this Thursday.

This was the first time Seguerra openly talked about his plans of getting surgical reassignment. He revealed that he has begun his hormone therapy, but calmed fears about it affecting his voice.

Saying that singing is his "bread and butter" and his way of supporting his family, he claimed: "Siguro naman iyong ganda ng boses ay hindi mag-iiba. It's just that bababa lang siya ng kaunti."

Seguerra has long come out as trans, even asking his fans back in December to stop using Aiza and to call him Ice --a nickname his family and friends have called him for years.

He said that part of the reason was that the name Aiza reminded him of the days he wore pigtails while performing on television.

"As time goes by, alam mo iyon kapag tinatawag kang Aiza ay parang hindi na ikaw iyon,' he said.

Seguerra has been married to his partner, Liza Diño, for three years. He said his wife has been supportive in his journey towards becoming a man.

Seguerra was on the late night talk show to promote his new single, "Anghel Sa Lupa," his first since 2015. He also has an upcoming tour of the US, he said.
