Justin Bieber’s Live in Manila concert is just a few hours away!

Tuesday, May 10th, 2011

Manila is under a Bieber fever right now as Justin Bieber‘s concert is getting nearer and nearer! Tonight at SM Mall of Asia Concert Grounds, the teen pop sensation will invade Philippines for his My World Tour Concert, 8pm.

Everybody wants to know something about the Bieb, he maybe just 17 years old but in an early age he already achieved more than an usual teenager. Maybe its because of his incredible talent and oh-so gorgeous looks that stole the hearts of his fans around the world.

As his concert rapidly approaches, we will give the “Beliebers” 17 trivia about the young singer-performer that you may find helpful in knowing him more.

  1. Number 1 albums. Proving the Bieber fever, Justin’s two albums, “My World 2.0” and “Never Say Never: The Remixes” have reached the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200. “Never Say Never: The Remixes” has sold 165,000 copies in its first week
  2. Drummer boy at 2. Justin began drumming at the tender age of 2. Other than drums, music lover Justin also plays piano, guitar and trumpet.
  3. 3D movie: Never Say Never. Get a glimpse of Justin’s life on his first 3D movie, documenting the pop star’s life ten days before his concert in Madison Square Garden in August 2010, which sold out tickets in 22 minutes.
  4. Four awards in 2010 American Music Awards. Justin knows how to sweep awards, he won “Artist of the Year,” Favorite Pop/Rock Male Artist,” “T-Mobile Breakthrough Artist,” “Favorite Pop/Rock Album.”
  5. 5’4″ in height. According to IMDB in 2010, Justin’s height is 5’4. Justin even joked about his height in USA Today, “Thanks to the music industry, I’m going to be really short.”
  6. Favorite number. Justin’s favorite number is 6. His other favorites are color purple, Supra shoes and Ne-yo’s “So Sick” song.
  7. “The Seven.” Justin guested in MTV’s “The Seven” show to promote his movie, “Never Say Never.” His guesting created much pandemonium having his fan girls camped outside the building in tents for hours.
  8. 8th in Twitter Top Trends. Having over 9 million followers in Twitter, Justin placed 8th in the 2010 Overall Top Trends in Twitter. For the people category, Justin placed first.
  9. Nine million followers. If Twitter is a country, Justin could have been voted as the president. In April 2011, Justin made the 9 million mark on Twitter, making him the second celebrity to reach that mark, having Lady Gaga as the first celebrity to gain 9 million followers.
  10. Justin’s “Top Ten” on the “David Letterman Show.” David Letterman’s usual audiences might not be the Beliebers, but their parents instead; however, Justin’s guesting on the show charmed both young and adult audiences. The category is “Top 10 Reasons It’s Fun to be Justin Bieber,” which includes this reason “”When I’m sick, my doctor makes hilarious jokes about ‘Bieber Fever.’”
  11. Billboard nominations. With eleven Billboard nominations, including “Top Artist,” “Top Billboard 200 Album,” “Top Male Artist” and “Top Artist,” we wonder how many Justin can snag. The Billboard Music Awards will be broadcasted in May 22, 2011.

Charice launches International Debut Album alongside Justin Bieber

Thursday, May 13th, 2010

0MANILA, Philippines – International teen singing sensation Charice appeared on “The Oprah Winfrey Show” on May 11.

Charice, who turned 18 on May 10, returned to the popular US show for the 4th time and formally launched her first international self-titled album.

Before her performance, the show featured Charice’s life story from the day she started singing until she reached her dream to perform internationally with various popular artists like Andrea Boccelli and Celine Dion.

Charice’s international career started after her appearances on “The Ellen de Generes Show” and on Oprah’s show.

“She is one of the most talented young people we’ve ever had on ‘The Oprah Show.’ We first met her two years ago, a gifted little girl from half way around the world,” Winfrey said.

After looking back at Charice’s life, Oprah welcomed the teen singer on the stage.

Below was the conversation between Charice and Oprah at “The Oprah Winfrey Show.”

Oprah: Can you believe it’s only been two years ago.

Charice: I can’t believe this, it’s amazing.

Oprah: Now you have your first album?

Charice: I’m really, really excited because this is actually my first ever Pop-RnB album because I’d been singing you know Whitney Houston’s songs and Celine Dion’s songs, and now, I can’t believe that these are my own songs, I’m really happy.

Oprah: Does it feel like it’s a dream come true for you?

Charice: It is. I didn’t expect all of these, that all of these are gonna happened to me. All these are happening to me because a lot of people actually helped me and you are one of them. Thank you so much.

Oprah: You’ve worked a lot with the legendary songwriter and producer David Foster. What kind of advise has he been giving you?

Charice: I’ve learned a lot from Mr. David and we are working a lot, but the best thing that he always tells me is that it has to be great.

Foster, who was also there to accompany Charice, turned emotional as he bared that Charice asked him to be her godfather.

The show also showed Charice’s home which she bought for her mother Raquel.

Charice then performed her hit single “Pyramid” with Iyaz and ”In This Song” with Foster.

Charice’s first global single “Pyramid,” already reached the No. 1 spot on Billboard’s Hot Dance Club Songs chart.

Aside from Charice, Canadian hit singer Justin Bieber also guested on the show.
