Charise Pempengco is a Filipino singer that originally appeared on Oprah on May 12th. 2008.
Oprah was so impressed and touched by this 16 year old’s performance
that she reached out to call the legendary David Foster and told him he
needed to do something for her. The wheels began turning very quickly
for little Charise who must be barely 5 feet tall. This little girl had
no idea of what was about to happen to her, but in a nutshell all of
her dreams are coming true at a rapid pace. If you haven’t already
heard Charise sing, you must. She has a voice that could compete with
Whitney, Celine, Andrea Bocelli and all of the top singers of the world
and she is only 16 years old. Oh and don’t let me forget to mention she
was discovered on YouTube. Just think without the internet, the world
would have never found this treasure.
Oprah had Charise back on the show today and little does she know it, but she is going to meet Celine Dion.
Before the big Celine unveiling Oprah had some of her fans on and gave
them a chance to say hi to her. She also showed video of the first time
Andrea Bocelli called her and she was so happy she came to tears.
Charise then flew to Italy to sing a duet with her idol Andrea Bocelli.
Their performance brought out more than 8,000 people while they sing
“The Prayer” in Tuscany.
Charise talked about her childhood in manila and how she draws
strength to sing from her mother. When Charise was 3 years old she
witnessed her father’s rage while he choked her mother and almost shot
her until the neighbors came to rescue her. Her mother taught her to
sing when she was four years old and the first song she ever learned
was My Heart Will Go On. Charise began tohelp her mother make money by
entering over 80 talent shows and using her prize money to buy food for
the house. There favorite food is of all things…pizza.
This story is so inspiring and definitely brought tears to my eyes.
I hope this little girl continues to sing her heart out and I look
forward to hearing songs that were written for her.
Oprah has now launched a search for America’s Smartest and Most
Talented Kids. She is giving parents across the country an opportunity
to opload videos of their kids to Oprah’s website in hopes that they
may be picked to be seen on the show.
