I have been finding filipinos on talent shows in US, UK, Norway, Dubai, everywhere and its o surprise!

[chino]

Brought a tear to my eye - when she made that phone call or is this the vodka talking :D

[Piamed]

Hahaha! I think you would have cried anyway as it was a choker but the vodka probably helped too. T

[imbazzer]

Really nice to see filipino on tv great hope she goes all the way.

[andypaul]

out of intrest how did she get here?

I think most of the Wifes family will be spending a little more time
on the videoke after the next time the wife calls

Britain's only have one talent.....'Crime' :)

Too many sub-stories, the most common thing to do in this kind of show. Weep to the audience, tears, got bullied, poor me and blah blah blah.

The bottom line was that she has a great voice no matter what else happens.... :xxgrinning--00xx3:

[ervenescence]

Yeah I can see that, I hope the british public will vote and support for her on the rest of the competition.
You know what its like sometimes, audience vote for those who entertained them, not the one whose got the real talent. :NoNo:

Goodluck misis :)

What my Wife thought really embrassed her that she was not relying on her talent alone and possibly embrassing the Woman herself wouldn't be surprised if the producers are telling her to put it on.

The look in Simon Cowells eye said it all thinks shes an ok singer but nothing out of the ordinary but he knows its not all about talent if the crowd like you and happy.
He is happy becuse ratings are helped and possible a record or two can be producded. Then back to the clubs she goes,with the as seen on britain has talent added to her flyer.
He did the No vote just to see the reaction, the response said if she released that cover at least a few of the audience will take the burberry phone covers of their phones and download it.

Good luck to them both

my misses cringed when she started crying, many working here have not seen their kids or families for years, my wife hasn't seen her family for 3 yrs :cwm24:, but its a lot harder not seeing your kids :cwm24:

but shes not as good a singer or good looking as Ramiele Malubay who made it to the final top 10 of American Idol a couple of weeks ago :xxgrinning--00xx3:

which one is Charlie ?

[andy17]

Great voice... and the sob stories are part of the attraction of the show... Cowell has a great formula here and in the US and it draws huge audiences to see people exactly like Madonna. It's not just about talent but about the 'act'. I hope she does well!
Go Madonna, Go! :bigcry:

[pasta]

which one is Charlie ?

A ten years old school boy from Droitwich who sang Summer Wind. :BouncyHappy::BouncyHappy::BouncyHappy:

Charlie has a great voice and more amazing is how poised he was in front of such a large audience. Hope he gets to the finals.

She is here on a student Visa studying music and production.

Im hoping to get the Wifes bro and sis out here to study media studies, well they should be good at it they watch tv all day and surf the web :xxgrinning--00xx3:

[ervenescence]

Britains got talent from Philippines :D

[aromulus]

Everytime I was clocking the local talent in Cebu, Jet gave me some funny looks...... :Erm:

[IainBusby]

Hi alicat, Charlie Green is my nephew... a half filipino and british. :BouncyHappy:

My missus just got a very brief glimpse of the proud parents and she said, "she a filipina".

You should ask her to sign up to FilipinoUk Pasta!!!

I've seen some singers in my time and I even made my living as one myself for a while, but Charlie really is something else, amazing!

Iain.

[gadgets]

he was in last night's ITV Midlands news. seems he started performing early, they showed a clip of him performing when he was five. he really has a great chance in winning. he can also go back to pinas and become a star there if he wants to.

i thought she said she was cleaning offices :Erm:

[andypaul]

i thought she said she was cleaning offices :Erm:

heres the mirror quote from one of the links above


She made the heart-rending decision to leave them in the Philippines and move to Manchester on a student visa in 2006.
As well as studying a music and production course, her plan was to make cash singing in clubs to send to her girls, aged five and six, who live with her parents. But she is struggling and has not seen them for six month


After this afternoon overhearing a few phone convos and what not while on a vist to a certain production company i had my thoughts confirmed on these talent shows:NoNo:

[David House]

I think a rather big point is being missed here. Madonna is here on a student visa and although this entitles her to do a limited amount of work to support herself the rules specifically prohibit working as an "entertainer". I thing she, and maybe the show, will hit stormy waters if the IND start to take an interest as she openly admitted she was working the clubs.
This could reflect badly on other Filipinos with the current underlying anti immigration mood of the British public.
My wife, who is a Filipina but is now naturalised British too, is also a singer and fronts a function band so we know a little about both sides of this story. Madonna's voice is OK, but nothing exceptional by Filipino standards where as we all know there are some great singers. Her sob story is hardly unfamiliar, as so many have to leave family behind ,and bringing that to a wider audience is no bad thing.

Shes being used by the production company just as all the others are, im sure they want the IND to take intrest so they get more publicty.
All news is good news

:BouncyHappy::BouncyHappy:Charlie Green and Madonna, I've watched local news last night it was televised in GMA 7 Kapuso mo Jesica Soho. I got emotional when I watched Madonna's story:bigcry::bigcry: She got interviewed while her friend chatting her online using ym:)
