Female reporter: Meanwhile, news just came in that Charice Pempengco just arrived in the Philippines, one day before the Inauguration of President-elect Noynoy Aquino and Vice-President-elect Jejomar Binay. Charice is assigned to sing in the Inauguration tomorrow. Nelson Canlas reports.

Male reporter: Hello Connie?

Female reporter: Yes, Nelson. Go ahead.

Male reporter: Okay. Beside me right now is Charice Pempengco. And she's turned into a beautiful lady. Here, I'm going to let you talk to her.

Female reporter: Yes, please.

Charice: Hello?

Female reporter: Hi Charice!

Charice: Hello!

Female reporter: So, are you ready to sing tomorrow?

Charice: I'm going to rehearse today. I'm a little bit nervous since I'm going to be singing the Philippine National Anthem. But this is a big opportunity, for me to be part of Philippine history.

Female reporter: There have been many artists before that made headlines because it's said that they changed the way the National Anthem is supposed to be sung. How about you? What are you planning to do, Charice?

Charice: I heard the other artists sing it and I've heard about those issues. I can't say that I can sing it perfectly, but I will definitely do my best to sing the way the National Anthem is supposed to be sung. I'm not really a perfect singer but I'll try my best.

Female reporter: But you're very good! How does it feel to be chosen to sing the National Anthem?

Charice: I didn't really expect it. I just knew that they were choosing between me and Arnel [Pineda]. But it's an honor to be chosen. This is a big event and tomorrow will be part of history. And this is for our President. So, I'm really happy.

Female reporter: Everyone also wants to know what you're planning to wear tomorrow. Who made it?

Charice: Ninang (godmother) Kris [Aquino] chose what I'll be wearing. And the ones who made it are Paul Cabral and Avel Bacudio.

Female reporter: Okay, let's talk about something else. We're all excited that you're going to be part of the cast of Glee. That's my favorite show! How does it feel?

Charice: I really didn't expect it. The rumor came out last month. And it really wasn't true when it came out that time. That's when Mommy suggested to my manager in the US, "Why don't you try getting Charice an audition for Glee?" So, I tried. I auditioned three weeks ago or two weeks ago, I think. It was just recently. Then after a few days... I didn't expect that I would pass the audition. They sent an email congratulating me.

Female reporter: Can we clarify something Charice? Is Oprah your manager in the US?

Charice: Oh, no! It's not her. Ms. Oprah is like my adviser. Andrea Bocelli, Sir David Foster, and I have the same manager.

Female reporter: Wow! We hear that you and Ms. Oprah Winfrey talk to each other a lot. Were you able to share with her that you're going to sing for the Inauguration tomorrow?

Charice: Yes, I told her.

Female reporter: What was her reaction?

Charice: Of course, she was happy for me. This is what she wants for me - to fulfill my dreams. She's really happy for me and for everything that happened to me, just like Glee and all the other things.

Female reporter: And there's more! We hear that you're part of the video tribute for Michael Jackson! You're already way up there with other famous music artists! What's your reaction?

Charice: I shot that about two weeks ago, right about the same time I got into Glee. They interviewed me and asked me how Sir Michael Jackson influenced me. I didn't expect that they would put that video together. I'm really happy. It's another dream come true.

Female reporter: Alright. Thank you very much, Charice. We are all proud of you.

Charice: Thank you. Thank you.

Female reporter: Thank you for the honor you bring to all Filipinos. Also, thank you, Nelson Canlas.

  • if Charice will be criticized for singing the Philippine National Anthem, then i think Charice should just stick to singing the "star spangled banner" like what she did when she sang it before a big baseball event in the united states...at least she was not professionally criticized in a major US newspaper when she sang the star spangled banner

  • charice is sssoooooooo humble and soooooo courteous when answering questions...this is what i love about her not just a singer but as a person!!! keep up the good work!!!

    GMA NEws---job well done..seems that you are always updated with Charice recently...just an observation....congrats for this!

see all

  • kaming mga GMA7,inggetera at manggagamit sa kasikatan ni charice.kahit Talent sya ng ABS-CBN2.aagawin namin sya,sikat na kasi.Pag-malaos na si Charice itatapon na namin.wala na kasing silbi.Kaya Pia Guanio at Nelson Canlas na animal din ay kailangang buntot ng buntot kay Charice,kahit pumasok man ito ng Banyo.Sipsip at feeling close si Nelson at Pia kay Charice.Dati nilalait lang ng gma7,e ngayong Sikat na,pati Tae ni Charice kinain na ni Pia at nelson canlas na buwaya!

    and my housemates here is amazed by her,,even my mother said she has a goosebump while listening to CHARICE!!!^_^

  • nice interview..well done GMA.

  • charice is so humble!

  • hehehe kasi international na c charice eh

  • @chebozz no need to worry about her singing the Phil. Anthem, she did great! She also looked great. Although I don't like Kris A., I'm thankful for her choice in the dress. I don't really like the color yellow- as I'm not a fan of the Aquinos. But I love the design. Cha's really blossoming into a lovely young lady.
