This is Charice...

Hey everyone! So instead of posting a Pilipino designer I decided to post about Charice, a Pilipino singer that just released a single a new single that I'm really liking right now. I've seen a lot of her interviews and watched shows that they've made about the her life and I decided to share her story because it's one of those stories that I find inspiring.

Charice is a 17 year old girl from the Philippines. She had a really tough live growing up, she was raised by her single mother. She competed in many singing competitions to help support her family. She tried out for a lot of TV shows and was told that she couldn't make it because she didn't have the right look. But her mom believed in her and kept on going to pursue her dream.

One of her fans posted videos of her singing on youtube and she because an internet star. That is when she was contacted by Ellen DeGeneres to perform on her show and then was asked to perform on Oprah's show and from there her career took off.

I know I wrote a quick version of the story, but I think the bottom line that I wanted to get out there was that Charice overcame so many obstacles and kept going even if there were people that doubted her. So never let anyone tell you that you can not do something or tell you that you can not do something because of the way you look, you can do anything you put your mind to! :)

This is Charice's new single "Pyramid" featuring Iyaz. This isn't the official video, she is currently in LA taping the video for the video. I honestly love the song and I heard it on the radio today and was very proud to hear on there! :)
