Like Oprah, Madonna, and Cher, she is now known by her first name: Charice.

“Tonight, a star is born!” David Foster exclaimed when Charice Pempengo wowed a 10,000-strong audience in Las Vegas where she performed at Foster’s tribute concert. She was the only performer to get a standing ovation, in fact – two!, that night with the songs she’s famous for singing – “I have Nothing / Will Always Love You” and “And I’m Telling You”.

Oprah called Foster to get Charice on his show. The 16-year old from Cabuyao, Laguna, Philippines appeared on the Oprah Show, and she was clearly impressed. Well, a good thing Foster accommodated Oprah, too!  Other stars who performed that night were Alicia Keyes, Josh Groban, Brian McKnight and Katherine McPhee among others.

Watch these two videos of the concert… obviously taken with a hidden camera ;-)
