Back in 2005, a filipina by the name of Charice Pempengcojoined Little Big Star, a talent show in the Philippines modeled after American Idol. She performed very well but unfortunately was eliminated in the latter rounds. In 2007, a fan of Charice uploaded her performances unto Youtube and the videos started racking up millions of views.

She performed And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going and A Whole New World withSuper Junior’s Kyuhyun. Famous American comedian / TV host Ellen DeGenereshappened to come across her Star King appearance on Youtube and invited her to the The Ellen DeGeneres Show. She made another appearance on Star King after the Ellen appearance and then released her self-titled debut album Charice in the Philippines, the album went on to go Platinum. She later made several appearances on The Oprah Winfrey Show and later released Note To God, a song that was a Top 10 hit on iTunes.
