What an exhilarating night it must have been for all who attended the Carousel of Hope, not just because of the line-up of Hollywood golden celebs that they could feast their eyes on but also because they all got a taste of the incredible talent of the magnificent teenage superstar, Charice! (yes, the exclamation point needs to be part of her name now because that’s how David Foster says her name!)
Charice! made the audience come alive with renewed enthusiasm as she stepped up on stage looking so adorable in her Michael Jackson inspired outfit, with the audience not knowing what they were in for! As expected, Charice! wowed them with her out-of-this-world rendition of “And I Am Telling You” (from the movie Dreamgirls), even the bass guitarist behind her couldn’t stop looking at her with unabashed appreciation, grinning from ear to ear, in utter disbelief. Once again, Charice! brought the crowd to their feet (including the bass guitarist!), as hollers and whoops of appreciation echoed through the room. And that was just the first song! David Foster was beside himself in absolute joy and delight, bringing one hand to his head in complete amazement of what he just witnessed!
Charice! went on to wow the audience again with her own interpretation of “I Will Survive”, an upbeat song which displayed Charice’s versatility and her seemingly magical ability to completely own that stage! Always the awesome entertainer, not only is she pretty, she can sing, she can dance, she can hold your mind hostage and your heart at her mercy… she is the total entertainment package.
At the end of her second song, Charice! had a brief exchange with David Foster and she was able to give the audience a short but sweet insight into her background. Charice! spoke with such eloquence and confidence, giving the impression that she is now starting to get the hang of this international star status. And it is so heartwarming to see the look of adoration on David Foster’s face as he watched his latest “Foster child” blossom right before his very eyes, not to mention the eyes (and ears) of just about every name that matters in Hollywood, and more importantly, the music industry big-wigs. Oh, she makes me so proud!!! (Ok, you can tell I’m biased, I’m a CHA-natic, I admit it!)
And just when the audience thought they had seen something incredible, Charice proceeded to blow them away with Michael Jackson’s 1983 hit, “Billie Jean”, busting out incredible Jacksonesque moves, displaying the most graceful moonwalk I’ve ever seen! (Michael Jackson, eat your heart out!) Charice! was just adorable! The audience was mesmerized! They were tantalised! Their hearts were captivated! The attraction was inescapable! They were hooked! Their lives as they know it has changed forever! They had been touched by the CHArmed one!
I am certain the stars all went to bed that night uttering the only word that can describe her: Charice!
Remember the name: CHARICE!
