For pete’s sake, let her be. Let her do her thing. If you start controlling her, where is the real Charice? Where is the artist?
She became Charice because of what she did; with some help from some people. Not because of you. You just joined the bandwagon when she reached the top. Now, you want to control her.
Let her be free and not bound by her fans. A lot of this so-called fans want to mold Charice in what they imagine she should be. The world is her stage , not just you.

Also, when Charice admitted that she’s one of the X-F judges, she thanked ‘the people behind her selection’. She didn’t specifically thank ABS-CBN. I wouldn’t be surprised if SimonC is in the mix. I have a gut feeling that there is ‘collaboration’ between Simon and Charice and that presents exciting possibilities for Charice as a guest performer not only in the US but in other countries where X-Factor is shown. Yeah… dream on.
As to speculations like going back to PI for good, no more job for her in US, career not taking off in US, etc… They are what they are – speculations. I don’t expect Charice and team to reveal to the public all her appearances in private occasions hosted by the ‘rich and famous’. Do you? I prefer to lie low in anticipation of a big one from Charice than being embarrassed when it comes. Positive vibes could help one avoid a miserable life!

@ inri
XFactor has a run date of 4 months and 1 week, the first month being the mentoring period by the judges with their assigned groups, the last 3 months are the actual live performances and judging. If my guess is right, I think Charice and her team might be reviewing tapes of XFactor and American Idol right now with David Foster coaching Charice on how to spot a contestants strengths and weaknesses. This is a cakewalk for Charice her fellow judges and the Filipino audience will be amazed how good she is. I hope she speaks the English language only.
The talk that Charice might be losing ground in her music career is total BS. She is Warner musics hottest property in Asia particularly in Japan. Her judging stint is a downtime and will resume recording Infinity in due time.

i think joining this x factor is only temporary, just to gain more fans in Phil. while waiting for more good songs in her 2nd album, and maybe charice will recommed the winner of this competition to david foster, for david foster and friends concert in the future.

I am sure that Charice is grateful for everybody’s concern. She respect opinions, at the same time she must decide according to her priorities. While in the Philippines, she will have the chance to be with her family and love ones.
Be yourself and be happy, Charice.
Ingat!

just because you buy a cd or pay to see her show gives fans no right to tell her what to do. we are fans who should support her endeavours , we may not like it but tough , either enjoy the ride or hop off the bus.

I am here as well to express my sentiment. Charice being a judge for X FACTOR Philippines will not help in her international career and certainly will not help her gain more fans worldwide! I just hope that I will be proven wrong because I want to see her become a mega superstar! As of right now that’s how I see it and thats how I feel! Chaster don’t treat me as a crab because I bought all her records from the US versions to the asian version inluding her EP’s and everything else!

Is there any information on the scale of this Xfactor event, e.g. audience size, language used, prize, length of program, age group of contestants etc. Most important of all, is the organizer aiming at discovering an international-grade talent. If yes, the program should be conducted in English, a recording contract for an album released beyond the Philippines, and tour concert in the US. As for the part of having Charice as one of the judges, it would only worth her while if the show is broadcast, at least Asianwide. Don’t do it if it is “just another singing contest”.

Warner Bros. has been in business since 1918 so I think it’s safe to say they know what they are doing. So let’s just wait and see what’s coming up next.
Put aside our own selfish egos and just be patient.
Go Charice! God bless!

If truth be told, they are actually more concerned with what PLEASES THEM rather than what pleases Charice and what is good for her career. They are here for DEMOLITION JOB no more no less. So sad, that a mere change in looks easily separated the TRUE from the not so true fans of her. And pls make the words sweeter next time…just in case they will eat them in the very near future!! Kudos to you and all the Chasters who remain as determined as Charice! (chad567ickler): )

You are both right. We all just need to remember our main objective why we’re here sharing our thoughts, wishes and sometimes our unsolicited advice is for Charice to rich her goals.
Charice’s Goals, Not Ours!

For me, i prefer Charice to continue her world tour instead of being a judge in the Phil X-factor. Her Asia tour concert is a huge success, (almost all sold-out concert) which made her million fans happy. There are still other countries like Canada, Australia, USA, Italy, UK, etc. are clamouring for her tour. This is the best way to share her talent to the world, which is a gift from God to us all. Think of the million fans around the world, that is the reality. Charice is now very very popular, this is the time to take this opportunity. We hope she will decide what is best for us (millions of fans not by those vested interest. We are always there to support Charice.

It is very inspirational. I hope Charice read the letter as well as her management .
Singing Ballads is her aura that made her famous all over the world .
