Oprah Winfrey's Filipino Star Joins Glee

Rating:Tibio™

A young Filipino singer discovered by Oprah Winfrey has landed her biggest break - she has joined the cast of Glee.

Charice will be a regular in the second season of the hit TV show, according to the Phillippine Daily Inquirer. The singer's manager, Grace Mendoza, tells the publication, "Charice will soon join Glee... and not just as a guest, but as part of the cast in a new season."

The news marks a remarkable week for the 18 year old, who landed the number eight slot on last week's Billboard charts with sales of 42,985 for her self-titled debut.

She says, "This has been the most exciting week of my life." Charice became an international sensation when a fan posted a performance of the young star taking part in a talent contests in Southeast Asia online.

After Oprah took an interest, songwriter David Foster offered to produce her debut album. Glee won't be the teen's first screen appearance - she featured in Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel.

  • HATERS DINT U KNOW THE MORE U HATE CHARICE THE MORE CHARICE SOARS HIGH AND LOTS OF BLESSINGS SHE RECEIVES THATS THE LAW OF THE UNIVERSE THATS THE LAW OF GOD...SINONG INAAPI YAN ANG MAGTAGUMPAY..MARAMING BIYAYANG IBIGAY NI LORD....INGET AT INIS ANG MGA CHARICE HATERS ANO???

  • hindi natin contrahin kung anomang plano sa atin ni lord ...plan ni lord na ganyan ang fate ni Charice maging mayaman at well known in the end..folks especially to charice haters why are u so mad with this talented liitle girl has she done some bad things to you?? unfair naman ang ginagawa ninyo. the more laitin ninyo sya the more sisikat sya tingnan nyo ginawa nyo dito tuloy si charice ang bida kahit na hate ninyo sya pero sya ang laman ng page na ito if u dont want her 2b sikat then shut up.

  • i am so amused why these people here are going gaga feasting over charice instant rose to fame and the tv shows she appears or comment of her shouting voice..

    i hope u people here will just see what charice can offer and love her give her the chance becoz shes also like any other singers who hopes their talents be noticed. only thing Charice made it to the top n worldwide right away- she was just destined to be there at the top right from the very start. join nalang kayo pagka chasters!!

  • charice is here to stay in this generation n the next three generations to come she took over the path & void where michael jackson left. lets just simply savor and love charice take her as she is while shes still around for we dont know when God will get her like what happend 2 michael jackson it will be too late then 2 realize what she is here for not only to sing for us but 2 sow love for one another coz this world is filled w/ hatred now charice is an nstrument God used to sow love.

  • God used influential people in the likes of Oprah David & Ellen coz these 3 have the right ingredients 2 groom a person with incredible talent. She was just born at the right time to meet these people in her young life..These 3 people are now old enough to be parents or even grandparent but God knows where to put everything in its right place.Lucky for Charice n 4 those pinoy singers who hoped 2b in Hollywood n fame like charice mebe worldwide fame is not your path God has other plans for you

  • not impt. anymore who discovered charice. the only one we remember charice did not reach instant stardom the easy way it may appear but behind that instant stardom is a bitter past. she had her share of sacrifices.FalseVoice, Ellen, Oprah and David Foster were impt figures in Charice' rose to fame. they were just made nstrument by God coz charice was poor n helpless yet filled with so much talent God dont want it wasted hence he used influential people to help charice develop her talent

  • @calleigh31323 damn skippy!

  • Technically Ellen Degeneres discovered Charice, she brought her to America for the first time and she appeared on her show first. Granted Oprah has done a lot for her, and has been very instrumental in advancing her career by introducing her to David Foster but in truth she did not discover her,

  • she was on the ellen degeneres show first.

  • Haters mostly from phils due to their jealousy/enviousness coz they cant take the deal that charice took over the fame over their own pinas idol's . in america there's lots of newcomers that became fame w/o being bullied by those haters/crabs they call in phils. its so ashamed filipinos wont support someone like charice giving pride to the country,but rather they would like to destroy her,put her down, these haters are big embarassment,& the tics in the community, God bless charice!
