I am a great fan of Charice. WHile it’s probably true that Charice is more renown in the US than in the PI. She’s only 17 and she just hasn’t had enough exposure, the luxury of great marketing, managing, and perhaps even song choices or song writers in the philippines that she has had here. But I’ve seen she has a great presence to go with the voice adn she hsa the potential to be a great star…. and she will stand the test of time. An example of poor marketing..is her wardrobe in the concert. or the poor choir, or the poor outfits she’d been wearing on the cover of her album…an ugly album cover.. she also could have sang more RNB songs… with the right help she will be a success both in the US and locally.

charice is more appreciated here in the US than in her own country, sad to say… a lot of people are jealous of her success and rather pull her down than give her support that she deserves. better to concentrate her in the US while there are people who is more than willing to help blossom your career…

I’am a filipino but I want Charice not to go back to the Philippines until she is already a big star…Im fully aware that Charice loves Philippines so much but sad to say her fan base her is not really great. seriously, there is more people pulling her down than loving her and that what’s make me ticked off. Crab mentality everyone. There are a lot of crabs in here. Charice should have a better foundation in her career first before going back to philippines for guestings or whatsoever.

First, her dream house, relatives and friends are there.
Second, she has many fans in the Philippines that supported her and are entitled to see and hear her, just like we have.
Third, DF has said he would like to visit the Philippines, so should Charice let him go alone?
Forth, can you imagine the backlash if she said to h__l with them.
Fifth, no one should ever forget their roots, even if the experiences were bad or good. There are obstacles in everyone’s life that they have to overcome to make them a better person. It makes you appreciate what you attain even more.
I would rather have a happy Charice than a homesick Charice. What am I missing here?

Hahaha Jimfan155,
You’re funny Jinfan155. I like your sense of humor. The shades of sarcasm are tolerable and could be taken without offense, and as a matter of fact, just enough to highlight the more important and sensible truth.
You know, when one reprimands a relative like a sibling, cousin or children, don’t you notice how much more seemingly cruel, vicious or sometimes over kill it’s done compared to reprimanding a non-blood relative? It is probably because one would expect more from a blood relative. I think that is what is happening here. Filipinos casting such extreme actions as reprisal for what they perceive has been or is being dished out to Charice. BTW you are not Filipino correct? If so, then that is the explanation of why you see this kind of reaction and attitude.

Jimfan155,
Take note of the things they mention. These are all true , be it coincidence or intentional by some conspiracy or whatever. The fact is, there are more detractors over there than here in the US. Or the basic biblical principle (if you can call it that) works against her, “a prophet is recognized except in his own country”. Charice is an extra ordinary and superbly gifted talent, but because she is from the Philippines, “seniority” makes her take a number and wait in line for the other more popular entertainers to have their day and show. They will not admit or accept that Charice is much more talented or deserving of the respect and recognition. But if Charice is successful here in the US and hits the top, thats the only time everyone in the Philippines will recognize and give her the due respect. Just you watch, and it will be the sweetest time for Charice. It already happened in a small scale. But the success of the album as evidenced by the sales figures and chart rankings here in the US shall be the sword that shall make them all bow and kneel. Hehe.

Hi Jessica86s.
You have me pegged correctly. I try to keep my arguments light and unoffensive. I don’t have the knowledge or the intelligence to make believe I know what is truly going on. I will say my side as I try to look through the eyes of whoever I support. I always try to be positive and will ask for opposing point of views to try to learn things
I may be unaware of. But you must give me facts, as I will not change my opinion based on perception and heresay.
If I’m wrong I will not be ashamed to admit it. And I will not be stubborn or hardheaded that I will not apologize, if need be. I’m to old to carry on a point of view if I know it’s wrong. Don’t have the time or the energy.
Which is why I will support Charice unconditionally. I don’t know the behind the scenes reasons for her decisions nor does she owe me/us any explanations. Being a non-Filipino (American born Chinese) I can only comment on what I see on these videos, what I read in these articles and what I witness on her performances, in person.
As I have mentioned before seeing her live is so much different that seeing her in videos. That’s why I have to take into account the audience reaction as well as the singing. From what I could see this was a different arrangement from what we have seen in the past for “The Prayer”. I agree that she started somewhat subdued and was easily able to turn it up in the later parts. She won’t show up new performers and the audience appeared to love her (standing ovation). So that’s what I saw here.
While not all singers in the Philippines may not agree she’s
the best, I did see support and respect for her in her ASAP 09 performance of OMIT. Especially from Lani M., Sarah Geronimo, and Zsa Zsa.
I look forward to her future and if it takes a little longer and she doesn’t make all the money as quickly as many think because she visits the Philippines rather than move to the US, then I will accept it. Besides at 17 she has a house, a car, an improved life for her family, is able to do charity work and is so far ahead of me at that age (and this age), am I qualified to tell her she’s making the wrong decision? Sorry, but I’m learning from her.

Jimfan155,
I was a bit confused for a while. hehe. But anyway, I believe that the only point where we seem to disagree is the idea of where Charice spends most of her time and effort (thus incidentally and eventually would translate to resources and timeliness of the release of her album).
There have been many instances, as pointed out by other chasters, which show Charice not really performing at her best. I have seen them and if you take a real close look, you’d see for yourself and wonder why some people, especially her own countrymen, would do such a thing.
I’m talking about the screw ups in sound systems like her microphone, or her minus one accpmpaniment, the changing of the song which she was to perform with others on the last minute and she’d be the only one who hadn’t had sufficient time to rehearse and practice the new song or arrangement, and I could go on and on. But Charice has managed to keep the audience from making fun of her and instead kept them happy and awed despite the mishaps and at times, came through looking even better. If only I had the technical skills to have recorded and saved those videos then, I’d be able to present you this proof.
Finally, it’s sad that this is happening to Charice, at her very young age, and in a very competitive industry (entertainment) where in the Philippines, looks weigh heavier than real talent, though Charice has definitely caught up in that area now. But as I said, for Charice to put that much importance to her acceptance by the Filipinos is a waste of energy because of the prevailing system there. I (maybe, as well as the others who believe Charice should spend more time here n the US) am convinced that Charice is better off concentrating on promotional efforts here in the US.
David Foster mentioned in one of the interviews that one of the difficulties they have encountered was Charice’s availability since she goes back and forth to the Philippines. He didn’t make a big issue out of it though but it is a major factor that made developing the right songs for her take much longer than usual. And should she continue to spend more time there in the Phils. it does not make sense because the market representation of the Philippines in terms of sales is a very small fraction of that in the US and elsewhere. So, with the amount of detractors and resistance from the Filipinos because of the existing system of looks, popularity, seniority and “god father backing”, spending too much time and effort there doesn’t look like a sensible thing to do.
It’s not really, as you said, “turn her back on her countrymen”, but more of an exercise of prudence as far as time and resources are spent for the preparation and launching of her first international album. I’m not saying that Charice is not going to be supported by the majority of the Filipinos when her first album comes out. On the contrary. I believe it would be a more effective and efficient move to focus most, if not all, the efforts here and abroad because if Charice bags the international market, that will automatically include the Philippines. This I say because of that principle, “nothing succeeds like success” and just like everyone else, particularly the Filipinos, they tend to slide into and get caught up in the direction of the flow.

Thank you Charice for your songs. I am sitting home after my surgery and I listen to your voice. You soothe and take away my pain. I hope Charice that you are not over-tiring yourself. Do take time away from the crowd to rest and re-charge. You deserve it! Remember we will expect you to be around for the next 50 years still singing! And we will be there to support you and buy your albums!
Love
A fan from Canada

charice talent is more appreciated abroad than in the phil i guess that’s how phil showbiz is a lot of jealousy insecurities pacutecute idolization among fans so they diss out other talents if you appreciate real talents like charice has then you would go for her even if you like other singers like david said she is undeniable, her solid powerful and explosive voice is one of a kind i hope charice spend most of her career in america i think this is where she belongs and become well known all over the world she should think of her singing career first if this is what she wants and just go back to phil when she get old and retires.
