She was just a runner-up in the ABSCBN talent show but she was noticed by the world when her stint in a Korean Star King singing contest was posted in youtube. The rest is all explained in this news.
Internet singing sensation Charice Pempengco received two standing ovations from the audience of The Ellen DeGeneres Show that happened recently.
The 14-year-old Little Big Star finalist showed off her singing talent that wowed the American audience including the Emmy Award-winning host Ellen DeGeneres.
It was late November when Ellen announced on her show that she wanted this teenager singer from the Philippines—who sang in a televised talent contest in Korea titled Star King that hit the video-sharing site YouTube—to guest on Ellen. When she learned about Ellen's wish, Charice said, "Nagulat po ako, parang napaisip ako, ‘Wow! Pang-international!'"
Indeed she looked like an international star when she sang Dreamgirls original soundtrack "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going." After this, Charice hugged Ellen while in tears.
"You're amazing! You're amazing!" commented Ellen. She continued, "We just witnessed the beginning of this girl's career that we're gonna go, 'I was there, I saw her.' She is unbelieveable."
Then, a second standing ovation was given to her when she performed Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You." In fact, in YouTube, one user commented, "That's the same voice as Whitney Houston."
As for the bonus surprise, Ellen gave Charice an iPod Touch to replace Charice's iPod, which was lost during her flight going to the United States.
With all the warm welcome and praises that she got from her guest appearance in The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Charice was left speechless and could only say, "Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Thank you very much."
