AMAZING! Superior vocals and heartfelt expression - and to think this isn't even in full character on stage yet! Makes Ruthie Henshall and all other actors playing Fantine look amateurs...
Every filipno celebrity you see in international arena Lea salonga, Manny pacquiao, Charice, Anna Maria de tagle, Arnel Pineda, Apl de ap of black eyed peas are the most humble and down to earth Hollywood Celebrities you will ever see in your lifetime cause they put thier representation of the Philippines to every people who watch them perform. Back in the Philippines they meld in without thier international status with other local celebrities.
WOW. I thought Henshall was the best Fantine, but Lea is awesome and heart-wrenching as Eponine. As far as I am concerned, LEA is best at whatever she does. She is my heroine. :) I wish her the best and hope for her to continue with her musical career. She is Awesome.
she played the voice of mulan and jasmine and now im also reading that she was the singing voice of belle from beauty and the beast as well. her repertoire surely represents the most eclectic and versatile resume...
I sayShe is golden, inside and out. She worked very hard to be where she is now at. She is by far the most humble, loving, exceptionally talented Filipino celebrity to date. She lives a clean and very private life, those who know her personally are breathless with how ordinary Lea is in real-life. Not a cloud of 'status' in her. Go Lea, you are a diamond that will forever shine, and us Filipinos are so proud of you.
of all the versions of I Dreamed A Dream posted in youtube, Ms. Henshall's delivery of the line, "so different from this hell i'm living" is the best. no contest to that.
i believe Ms. Salonga's delivery of the whole song is at par with Ms. Henshall. They both deliver the emotion of song so effortlessly. Check out the rendition of Ms. Salonga of the song where she sang it at Bryant Park. First time i heard it, i cried. :-)
Critics have hailed her The Legendary Fantine. Not a surprise! :-)

Good but not on a par with the excellent Ruthie Henshall who sets the benchmark.
Henshall lives this song and understands it fully. This sounds all too American high school for me.
