Kodaka lived in Japan before joining StarStruck. On Startalk, after her elimination, she claimed that she would not go back to Japan, as she prefers to live with her family in the Philippines.

Kodaka was one of the eight finalists who auditioned abroad. She advanced to the final 14 alongside Zeryl Lim (who auditioned in the Middle East) and Rye Burgos (who auditioned in the United States.)
Nina, o sia La pazza per amore (Nina, or the Girl Driven Mad by Love) is an opera, described as a commedia in prosa ed in verso per musica, in two acts by Giovanni Paisiello to an Italian libretto by Giambattista (also Giovanni Battista) Lorenzi after Giuseppe Carpani's translation of Benoît-Joseph Marsollier's Nina, ou La folle par amour, set by Nicolas Dalayrac in 1786.
The work is a sentimental comedy with set numbers, recitative and spoken dialog. It is set in Italy in the 18th century.
Nina was first performed in a one act version at the Teatro del Reale Sito di Belvedere in Caserta, San Leucio on 25 June 1789. A revised two-act work was presented at the Teatro dei Fiorentini in Naples in the autumn of 1790.
The idea for the album came while Jamie Stewart was on tour with Swans.Nina was recorded in a day. The album features Jamie Stewart's voice, Ches Smith on drums, Tim Berne and Tony Malaby on saxophones, Andrea Parkins on accordion, and Mary Halvorson on guitar. The latter four had experience in avant jazz. The album reimagines rather than recreates Nina Simone's songs. It was released on Graveface Records on December 3, 2013.
Reception
Nina received a "generally favorable" score of 65 (out of 100) from the ratings aggregator Metacritic. Nate Chinen from The New York Times described the album as accentuating Simone's "spooky, unsettling side". He adds that Stewart's vocals add to the "psychodrama" in "Four Women" and "the wildness" in "Wild Is the Wild". Chinen thought the art rock Nina Simone covers field was already crowded before Nina. Heather Phares of AllMusic considered Stewart's stylistic choices "provocative" and the album Stewart's "most avant-garde ... in years". She added that the album considered the "more progressive aspects" of Simone's music. Kyle Fowle of Slant Magazine thought the album to be Xiu Xiu's "most ambitious ... in years". He thought Stewart's vocal style was out of place on "Don't Explain" and "Just Say I Love Him". Billy Hamilton of Under the Radar wrote that Simone would approve of the album. Mark Richardson of Pitchfork noted a mystical connection between Xiu Xiu and Simone as artists who perform raw emotions, but described the album as a "wasted opportunity" and "weirdly conservative". For this, he blamed Stewart's vocals for being "theatrical" and insincere. Richardson praised the album's selection of songs covered.

(Frank Jorge) Querida nunca diga Que eu tenho mal gosto E saiba que o belo da vida Ainda está pra nascer Querida por favor Olhe bem em meu rosto E tente enxergar o que os outros Não conseguem ver Fui lhe mostrar Um disco que eu comprei De um cantor Que eu sempre gostei Mas você Não me deu atenção E voltarei pra casa Pelo mesmo caminho Escutarei o meu disco sozinho Dentro do meu quarto Na escuridão Querida por favor Olhe bem em meu rosto E tente enxergar o que os outros Não conseguem ver E tente enxergar o que os outros
