Charice once again made Filipinos proud when she was chosen as one of the featured artists in renowned US composer David Foster’s concert at the Mandalay Bay Hotel in Las Vegas last May 23. Other performers in the show included artists Josh Groban, Alicia Keys, Brian McKnight, Michael Buble, and Andrea Bocelli. Charice sang two songs--a medley of Whitney Houston hits and And I Am Telling You from Dreamgirls--and received standing ovations for both. “A star is born tonight,” Foster said after her numbers.
For Charice, the experience is still like a dream. “Parang nanaginip lang po ako. Lalo na pagnakikita ko yung program. Hello, pinagitnaan ako ng dalawang big stars, si Michael Buble, ako po, tapos si Josh Groban. ‘Di ko po ine-expect na kasama si Alicia Keys, mga big stars talaga. Si Mr. Andrea Bocelli, kinongrats pa niya ako after ng performance ko.”
Also singing Charice’s praises is Josh Groban who was very impressed with Charice’s big voice. “I had the great pleasure of standing on the side of the stage when she was performing. She’s got an instrument which she has to continue to develop and must take care of it. One of the most beautiful voices I’ve heard in a long time.”
