Charmaine Clarice Relucio Pempengco (born May 10, 1992), popularly known by the mononym Charice, is a Filipina singer who rose to popularity through YouTube. Dubbed by Oprah Winfrey as "the most talented girl in the world",[2] she released her first international studio album Charice in 2010. The album entered the Billboard 200 at number-eight, making Charice the first Asian solo singer in history to land in the Top 10 of the Billboard 200 albums chart.[3]

She released the single "Pyramid" which featured singer Iyaz. It is her most successful single to-date, charting within the top 40 in a number of countries, and debuting on The Oprah Winfrey Show where she sang live vocals. Crossing over to acting on television, she joined the cast of TV series Glee as Sunshine Corazon.[4] She has released a new lead single, "Before It Explodes", written by Bruno Mars, from her international sophomore studio album, Infinity. Her latest single "Louder" was written by Andy Thi Hy in 2011.

In March 2012, she signed on to be one of the four judges of the Philippine version of The X Factor, which began to air on ABS-CBN in June.[5]

Early life

Charice was born in the province of Laguna, Philippines[6] and was raised by her single mother, Racquel. To help support her family, she began to enter singing contests at age seven, from town fiestas in various provinces to singing competitions on TV.[7] She is said to have competed in almost a hundred such contests.[8]

In 2005 Charice joined Little Big Star, a talent show in the Philippines loosely patterned after American Idol. Eliminated after her first performance, she was called back as a wildcard contender and eventually became one of the finalists. Although she was a consistent top scorer in the final rounds, she did not win the title in the finale and only placed third.[9]

Charice made minor appearances on local television shows and commercials, but essentially fell off the radar after her stint at Little Big Star. It was not until 2007 that she gained worldwide recognition after an avid supporter, Dave Dueñas, under the username FalseVoice, started posting a series of her performance videos on YouTube. These videos received over 15 million hits making her an internet sensation.[10]

Career

Discovery (2007–2008)

In June 2007, Ten Songs/Productions, a music publishing company in Sweden, invited Charice to a demo-recording after producers saw her videos. She recorded seven songs – six covers and an original song called "Amazing".[11] She was then invited to the South Korean talent show Star King on its October 13, 2007 edition, she sang "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going" and a duet of "A Whole New World" with Kyuhyun, from Super Junior.[12]

After watching her Star King performance on YouTube, Ellen DeGeneres extended an on-air invitation to Pempengco to be a guest on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. She flew to the United States for the first time and performed two songs on the December 19, 2007 episode of the show – "I Will Always Love You" and "And I Am Telling You".[13][14][15] Following her American debut on Ellen, she made a second appearance on Star King as the "Most Requested Foreign Act" of the show. On its December 28 edition, she performed Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive" and sang a duet with singer Lena Park.[16] In January 2008, she was invited to the Malacañan Palace where she performed for Philippine President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.[17]

She returned to the international scene when she guested on the April 8 episode of The Paul O'Grady Show in London, England.[18] Her Philippine debut album Charice was released in May 2008.

The show was aired several times on PBS and other public television networks starting in December 2008 under the Great Performances banner.[23] One of the singers at the concert was Pempengco's idol, Andrea Bocelli.[24] Bocelli subsequently expressed interest in performing a duet with her[25] and personally invited her to be a guest on his birthday concert "The Cinema Tribute" held on July 20 at the Teatro del Silenzio in his hometown of Lajatico, Tuscany, Italy. Aside from her solo performance, she sang a duet of "The Prayer" with the famous tenor in front of more than 8,000 people.[8][26][27][28]

She was invited to perform for the Feyenoord's Centennial Anniversary in the Netherlands held on September 26. Before a crowd of about 50,000 football (soccer) fans, she sang the team's anthem, "You'll Never Walk Alone."[29] When she guested on the "Dreams Come True" episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show on September 9, Oprah referred to her as "The Most Talented Girl in the World." She sang Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On" with David Foster on piano, after which Oprah surprised her with an appearance by Celine Dion via satellite, who invited her to sing a special duet at New York City's Madison Square Garden as part of Dion's Taking Chances Tour.[8][30]

She performed her promised duet with Celine Dion on September 15. They sang "Because You Loved Me," dedicated to Pempengco's mother. The performance received rave reviews in The New York Post and The New York Times.[31][32][33] The duet was eventually featured on the September 19 episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show.[34] She would then perform at the Andre Agassi Grand Slam for Children Benefit Concert at the Wynn Las Vegas casino resort.[35][36] In November, she and David Foster guested on Good Morning America to promote Foster's tribute album, Hitman: David Foster and Friends.

Only two more weeks I was supposed to be with him on stage. We were going to perform Billie Jean." Pempengco contributed to two Christmas albums in 2009.

Personal life

In October 2011, Charice's estranged father, 40-year-old construction worker Ricky Pempengco, was stabbed to death in her hometown in the Philippines, forcing her to pull out of a concert in Singapore. Ricky Pempengco had been at a small grocery store in San Pedro, Laguna, a township south of Metro Manila, when he brushed against a drunk man who became angry and stabbed him with an ice pick in the chest and back, according to the Laguna province police chief. Charice expressed her sadness through her Twitter account about the death of her father by typing:

"I want to thank my fans from around the world for their support and love at this very difficult time for my family and I," she said in a statement. "We are all very sad about this terrible tragedy" and "I loved him and I will still love him," she wrote. "He's still my Dad after all."[92]

On March 2012, Charice faced harsh criticism from the Internet and the media after she decided to change her style of hair and clothing into what she described to be a "edgy and rock". She replied by saying: "I know some people think that this is very rebellious but it's not. It's just me evolving."[93] On April 16, 2013, she was faced with allegations regarding her sexuality after various pictures of herself posing in tomboyish clothing surfaced online.[94][95][96] In an interview with her mother, Raquel Pempengco said that she would respect her daughter's decision about her own identity.[97][98] On May 28, The Philippine Star newspaper ran a story about her 21st birthday party which was described as her "coming out of all sorts".[99]

Musical influences

Charice has mentioned many times that she looks up to her mother Raquel, a former vocalist in a band, as her top musical influence; that she began begging for singing lessons at the age of four. Growing up she listened to many types of music but mostly Celine Dion, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, and Destiny's Child. Charice also expresses admiration for Lady Gaga and Beyoncé.[103] for attitude, fashion, and vocal style. She has stated a wish to work with both of them someday. Mariah Carey,[104] Whitney Houston,[105] Michael Jackson,[106] Celine Dion[107] and Justin Timberlake[108] are some other artists that Charice is a big fan of. She has also mentioned that some artists she would love to work with one day besides Lady Gaga and Beyoncé, are Eminem, Dr. Dre, Chris Brown and NeYo.[109] Charice has performed once with NeYo at the David Foster and Friends Special in Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas back in October 2010.[110] They performed "Earth Song" by Michael Jackson.

Voice

In an ABC News interview, David Foster mentioned that she has the ability to mimic other people's voices, which, according to him, is a characteristic of good singers.[111] In a separate interview, Josh Groban stated that Charice's voice is one of the most beautiful voices he has heard in a long time.[112] The New York Post once called her a vocal prodigy for being able to sing 'big songs' at a tender age.[32] Ryan Murphy, the executive music producer of the hit US television series Glee, said, "When that girl opens her mouth, angels fly out." Charice was featured in Oprah's bookazine, “Oprah’s Farewell Celebration: Inside 25 Extraordinary Years of ‘The Oprah Winfrey Show,” and is mentioned to have a "soaring soprano voice".[113] Charice released a web series "30 Days With Charice", in early 2011 and on its 3rd episode, "Charice On The Road : NYC" her manager Marc Johnston said of Charice: "Vocally, she's probably the greatest female pop singer in the world right now...what other great vocalists are out there that can do what she's doing?"
