Charice will be featured on Oprah today and Oprah is calling the show, Dream Comes True - The Most Talented Girl in the World! Wow, amazing. Charice Pempengco has been to places no Filipina has been ever accorded such an accolade and spotlight (except maybe for Imelda Marcos and for completely different reasons). This is the second appearance of Charice on Oprah, back in May, Charice performed in Oprah and she said to Oprah that meeting her and performing in Oprah is a dream come true. Pinoys in the United States pls. tape this new episode and upload it to YouTube or email them to me pls.. Word is Celine Dion and Whitney Houston is also apearing live on the show, with the possible addition of Mariah Carey!! These will be like GAY HEAVEN come true! LOL. No occasion that i remember had the 3 superstars been in one room together. I doubt the Mariah part though since she has a full schedule and (lovelife) for her new album. Meanwhile on Harpo Productions, Oprah’s company, Harpo is Oprah spelled backwards in case you didn’t notice, had all the praises for Charice:

The girl with “The Voice” is back! She’s from a small town on the other side of the planet, and she’s got a big voice that brings crowds to their feet. Oprah makes a dream come true for the teen sensation she calls “The Most Talented Girl in the World.” She started belting out tunes in talent shows in her hometown and quickly became a huge Internet sensation thanks to a singing talent that she says comes from somewhere “bigger than herself.”

Miley Cyrus, Rihanna, Fergie, Leona Lewis, Mariah Carey, Carrie Underwood, Mary J Blige, Beyonce, Natasha Bedingfield, Ashanti, among others (Excuse the billing!) perform for a charitable cause for cancer research in Just Stand Up to Cancer, a telethon aired over major American networks ABC, CBS, NBC and E!, Conde Nast Media Group’s Fifth Annual Fashion Rocks at Radio City Music Hall on September 5, 2008 in New York City.

American Idol Season 7 winner David Cook announced in an interview with a Canadian radio station, ChumFM, that he is coming to Manila to do a concert on January 27, 2009, his first show after American Idol. An American Idol winner and finalist is obligated by contract to tour with the rest around the United States and Canada. David Cook announced it himself on CHUMFM saying, “We just booked my first show, post-‘Idol,’ Jan. 27 in the Philippines … a one-off show and then we start the tour in the States …”.

David Cook is hugely popular in the Philippines because his songs, the Mariah Carey cover “Always Be My Baby” topped the chart for weeks in Manila and so does his other Idol finale hit, “Time Of My Life.”

Meanwhile, the American Idol Season 8 auditions have already commenced and is still on-going, for the show’s airing date first week of January.

Mariah Carey is number 71 in Maxim’s 2008 Hot 100 list of the world’s most beautiful women. See the Mariah Carey sexy Maxim pic scan below. The Maxim Mariah Carey spread said: Like wine and Glitter, Mariah gets better with age. Exhibit A: Her “Touch My Body” video, in which the 38-year-old hitmaker struts in lingerie that would make a stripper blush. Want your lady to smell like Mariah? M by Mariah fragrance is just $62 for a 3.3 oz bottle!”

Mariah Carey aside from “the wedding,” recently is in Japan to promote her album, E=MC².

She recently inspired a road rage when Zachary Schreiber and his fiancee were playing Mariah Carey’s hit, “One Sweet Day,” in their car and was called some derogatory names by an occupant/driver of another car beside it, that led to Mr. Schreiber to threw a beer bottle at the other car, hitting the driver. He was charged with shooting a missle into a vehicle and criminal mischief.

New pop sensation Leona Lewis has triumphantly appeared on American Idol April 24. Leona Lewis was discovered by American Idol judge Simon Cowell technically because Simon Cowell created X Factor where Leona Lewis won. X Factor is like the American Idol of the UK, or should i say the UK Idol..

Leona Lewis on American Idol will be on the heels of Mariah Carey mentoring the American Idol 7 contestants on April 16. And of course Leona Lewis singing style is being compared to Mariah Carey. Some say Leona Lewis at her best now is just a watered down Mariah Carey at her best in the 90’s.

Here’s Leona Lewis live on Good Morning America singing her no. 1 single, “Bleeding Love” from the no. 1 album Spirit.

and here’s Leona Lewis in American Idol:
