Charice Pempengco is a Filipino International Singing Sensation who rose to popularity through YouTube. Charice has been singing since she was four and has been joining singing contests one after the other with the hopes of winning the prize money so they can have food to put on their table.
It wasn't until an avid fan posted her jaw-dropping performances on YouTube that suddenly this Little Girl with the Big Voice burst through the computer and into the hearts of millions of people across the globe racking up several million views online.
This discovery led to several television appearances including
The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and then
The Oprah Winfrey Show, stunning audiences and bringing both Ellen and Oprah to tears.
Oprah was so impressed by Charice that she called legendary music producer
David Foster, who then, without hesitation, turned Charice into his newest protégé. Since then Charice has appeared alongside many of today's top stars such as Katharine McPhee,
Andrea Bocelli, Michael Bublé,
Josh Groban, Alicia Keys and Celine Dion.
Today she continues to WOW audiences not only with her goose bump-inducing voice, but with power and emotion rarely heard in one who is so young.
Indeed - A DIVA IS BORN!!!
