Yes, this is ANOTHER Charice post. I don't care, I can't help but love her.
3 years ago, she was called all the way from the Philippines to sing in Korea's talent show Star King, which is wrote about here, here and here. That Star King episode propelled her to instant Youtube stardom, and gradually marked the start of her career of an international artist and making her dreams come true. Her vocal and singing talent has thus been compared to ultimate powerhouses such as Whitney, Mariah Carey and Celine Dion.
3 years later, she returns to Star King. This time, as a full-fledged international artist with an album seated in the US Billboard Top 10.
You can't help but want her to succeed. Such incredible talent!~

Crazy About Charice! - Part 3
Charice performed her promised duet with Celine Dion at Madison Square Garden in New York City on September 15, 2008.
In November 2008, she appeared on Good Morning America with David Foster to promote David Foster's tribute album, Hitman: David Foster and Friends. Another AMAZING performance!
For the third time, Pempengco made an appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show on the May 18, 2009 "Finale: Oprah's Search for the World's Most Talented Kids" episode. She debuted her first internationally released single "Note to God", which was written by Diane Warren and produced by David Foster.
I cried almost every time I watch this. Her performances always leave me with a sense of awe, inspiration and overwhelming emotion. This song is really perfect for her. You can see how much emotion she puts into it and her tremendously soulful and powerful vocals really makes the song.
Charice is undoubtedly one of THE most talented singer AND performer of our time, and she's only just 17. At such a young age, this vocal prodigy has already been compared with powerhouse singers like Celine Dion, Whitney Houston and Beyonce. She's such a wonderful, adorable and down-to-earth person. Her God-given gift is just so amazing, you can't help but want her to succeed. Coming from a poor family with an abusive father in the Philippines, she has definitely made it VERY far and deserves a lot more.
I hope we will see hear more of her soon.

Crazy About Charice! - Part 2
In 2008, Charice returned to the international scene when she guested at the April 8 episode of the The Paul O'Grady Show in London, England.
She appeared for the first time on the May 12 edition of The Oprah Winfrey Show in an episode entitled the "World's Smartest Kids", in which she performed Whitney Houston's "I Have Nothing". It was through the recommendation of Oprah Winfrey that music producer David Foster took Pempengco under his wing. David Walter Foster is a 15-time Grammy award-winning Canadian musician, record producer, composer, singer, songwriter and arranger,[1] noted for discovering singers Celine Dion, Josh Groban, and Michael Bublé and for producing some of the most successful artists in the world.
Charice made a second appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show on the September 9, 2008 "Dreams Come True" episode, in which Oprah referred to her as "The Most Talented Girl in the World".
I cried when she cried after Celine invited her to sing together with her at Madison Square Garden. It's always touching to see a dream come true, especially for such a young, humble person with such a tremendous God-given talent.

A Tribute To Yasmin Ahmad
Internationally-acclaimed movie director Yasmin Ahmad, also renowned for her advertisements capturing the essence of family and multiracial unity of Malaysia, suffered a stroke while attending a meeting at Sri Pentas on Thursday and undergone surgery following her collapse. She passed away from massive bleeding in the brain at the Damansara Specialist Hospital at 11.25pm yesterday. This is a tribute to one of the greatest directors Malaysia had ever seen, whose movies and ads are celebrated by and touches all races in Malaysia, and those around the world.
From all her award-winning movies, one of the most remembered would be Sepet.
Not forgetting Talentime, her latest movie released this year.
Yasmin will also never be forgotten for her ads, that are incredibly meaningful and never fail to tug at your heartstrings.
I absolutely love this one about a funeral. How your imperfections make you perfect. I'm moved to tears every time I watch this...
About family...
Her CNY ads...
And not forgetting the endearing Tan Hong Ming =)
Yasmin Ahmad, you will be dearly missed and remembered. Rest in peace.
