DETERMINED to walk away with the Kaila! Star Search 2018 award, Kathleen Hill says all preparation towards that is for her late friend Akuila Salavuki.

Mr Salavuki, commonly known as ‘Lucky’, was allegedly murdered at the Suva Foreshore in May.

The 21-year-old Hill, who was a close friend of Mr Salavuki, said when she was chosen to be in the top 20, the only person she could think of was ‘Lucky’.

“I will do this for him and I’m trying my best to be in the top 15 or top 10,” she said.

The Fiji National University student said looking at all the competitors, the one thing that was coming out from their mind and heart was a win. She acknowledged her parents and friends for the continued support.

Round two of the Kaila! Star Search competition will be held at Village 6 Cinemas on Friday. Tickets are $3.50.
