Artistry

Geronimo has cited Michael Jackson as her major influence and she grew up singing and dancing to his music.[114] Geronimo said: "As a child, my dream was to be hugely popular like Michael Jackson. I wanted to have that kind of worldwide fame," added, "I want to be like him while performing, everyone gets so wild and emotional. Besides that, I see him as not only a performer, he's an inspiration to many people, and that's what I also want to become." Geronimo also cited American pop star, Beyoncé as one of her influences in singing and dancing live.[115]

In a 2020 article of ABS-CBN Entertainment, editor Mary Ann Bardinas stated that she is "one of the most successful and celebrated multifaceted artists in the country".[120]

CNN Philippines ranked "Tala" (No. 1) and "Kilometro" (No. 8) among the Top 10 Best Filipino songs of 2010s.[121] According to streaming service Spotify, she is one of the most streamed OPM artist in history.[122] She received a special merit as the platforms "Top Equal Philippines Artist of Spotify" for 2022.[123] Geronimo appeared for the first time on Forbes Asia's 100 Digital Stars list,[124] recognizing the most influential celebrities on social media across Asia-Pacific.[125] According to AGB Neilsen, she ranks third among the top celebrity endorsers of 2011 and fourth in 2013.[126][127] YES! Magazine ranked Geronimo first on their annual list of the "100 Most Beautiful Stars".[128][129][130] According to the Bureau of Internal Revenue, she is among the top celebrity taxpayers in the Philippines.[131]

Regine Velasquez praised Geronimo during her 20th anniversary concert saying: "You’re the queen of the this industry."[132] Sugarfree frontman Ebe Dancel also expressed his admiration for her saying: "I think she's one of the most talented artists we've seen in this lifetime."[133] Melissa Corpus of LA Music Review praised her musical versatility saying: "Sarah continues to showcase her versatility by experimenting on different themes/genres in her songs—from pop to inspirational, to romantic and heartbreaking love songs, to danceable tunes and so much more."[134] Considered a Pop Icon by media outlets,[135][136][137] her work has influenced numerous artists, including Sandara Park,[138] Jennilyn Mercado,[138] Iñigo Pascual,[138] Morissette,[138] Vivoree Esclito,[138] AC Bonifacio,[138] Ylona Garcia,[138] Jayda Avanzado,[138] Ella Cruz,[138] Julian Trono and Jason Dy.[138]

Geronimo's participation in the "What Love Is..." with Martin Nievera concert was described by Baby A. Gil of the Philippine Star with the comment, "Who needs a dancing Martin anyway when you have the long-limbed Sarah there, who is a daring, enthusiastic dancer? I like watching her dance and finding her moving even better now than the last time is a treat. Of course, she has also become an even better singer. To those who are wont to ask, has she gotten rid of her Celine Dion tendencies? Well, she still sings a good To Love You More, but she has obviously come to her own with fuller tones, nice, sexy low notes."[37] In her 24/SG concert People's Journal commented, "Sarah has reached a new level in her career as a concert artist. In fact, she has earned the right to be called the Concert Queen of the New Generation." Aside from her singing prowess, Geronimo's dancing skills has improved greatly.[139]

Camille Bersola of The Philippine Star described Geronimo as more than just a pop icon for being an inspiration, especially to today's youth. She stated: "In amateur singing competitions, there will be at least three contestants that will have their own rendition of 'To Love You More' or 'Forever's Not Enough'. When these little girls are asked who their favorite singer is, and whose path they’d like to follow someday, you can bet more or less 75 percent of them will have the same answer: Sarah Geronimo."[140] Quezon City Vice Mayor Joy Belmonte described Geronimo in The Philippine Star: "She's wholesome on and off camera, untainted by unsavory rumors. She's an ideal daughter and that makes her a good role model for the youth."[141] Wilson Lee Flores of The Philippine Star said, "She is a breath of fresh air in terms of wholesome image, humility, real talent and source of good news for the Philippine entertainment industry".[142] In 2005, Geronimo was awarded with "Pinoy Wannabe Awardee", a prestigious Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards given to a celebrity whom kids consider as their role model.[143] In 2006, QTV 11's magazine show Ang Pinaka named her as "Ang Pinaka Idol na Singer ng mga Bata."[144]

Geronimo however admitted it's not always easy protecting that image, especially since everyone looks up to her as a role model for young people. She said, "It's a bit hard although I'd like to become a role model. I rather take it as a big challenge because it is probably my purpose being here in this industry. This may also be the reason why I'm being trusted by companies to promote their products."[140]

Personal life and philanthropy

Geronimo attended Dominican School Manila for her primary education. She enrolled at University of Santo Tomas Education High School but later completed her secondary education at Angelicum College.[145] Geronimo studied Associate in Arts program in University of the Philippines Open University (UP Open University).[146][147]
