Charice Pempengco – a Youtube Sensation

A 16-year-old girl once again proves the biggest talent that every Filipinos possesses. It was undeniably amazing on how this girl conquered American audience, and now the whole world. I am personally a fan, since her days with Little Big Star – which unfortunately but fortunate enough to give Charice the courage not to give up, because she really has a talent.

Being an artist or simply a singer in the Philippines is sometimes or always frustrating. This was brought by superficial misjudgment by the Filipino viewers. Oftentimes we’re smart, but most of the time stupid that what we see is what we really can get. On the finals of the show, it was tremendously expected or maybe not that Charice will win. But, they chose Sam Concepcion – who is semi-equally talented and fully-groomed with confidence and total ad package. Anyway, the mishap happened and the future behold with Charice.

As fast as lightning, after two years of loose ends, the booming internet craze helped Charice to prove everyone wrong. With the help of Youtube user, False Voice, who maybe felt disappointed but not discouraged to continue in believing with Charice’s talent, posted all the videos; solo, in comparison or even home video. This was the start of Charice to be an internet sensation. She got a lot of invitations from all over the world, and then after that, by another world until she reached the world of famous singers around the globe.

I reckon when you searched Charice’s name in Youtube, that you have to search her full name to be able to find a good article about her…. Or maybe on the next Google pages. But now, you can simply type in “Charice”, and viola… everything about her, her story, her success, the people around her can now be found.

She reached a very far beyond what we expected. She’s been to different shows, that we normally saw in TV or even not if you don’t have a Sky Cable/Home Cable for that matter. She’s been a guest to Ellen Degeneres Show, Oprah Winfrey Show, and even a guest of Celine Dion at Madison Square Garden. Oh God, you are really so blessed.

On behalf of all the Filipinos, we really are grateful for your talent and representing us on the other side of GOOD WORLD.
