For me, besides from tuning into pinoy drama series every night, Filipinos also enjoys TV shows that promoting talents moreover to those TV shows that 'features' or 'featured' pinoy talents and pinoy personalities. Do you agree?
To give you a little #Throwback of this, let's recall those Pinoy prides that had drawn filipino viewers attention to internetional shows and reformed Philippine TV experience into something more interesting and fullfilling these past years.
Let's start with 'Glee'!
Charice Pempengco
Charice joined the hit US television series 'Glee' as Sunshine Corazon, the exchange student from the Philippines who presents serious competition against lead character Rachel Berry. This happened after her being dubbed by Oprah Winfrey as "The Most Talented Girl in the World".
Jessica Sanchez
Considered by many as one of the 'Best Fil-Am Idol', this 16 year old (that time) from Season 11 faced Philip Philips in the finale. She attempted to become the first Asian to be crowned American Idol, the youngest AI champion and the girl to break the show’s four-year consistent, all-male winner streak.
Sanchez then made her first ever TV series appearance via 'Glee' in Season 4: All or Nothing episode and appeared briefly in the episode Lights Out as Frida Romero, the lead vocalist of the glee club The Hoosierdaddies, a year after her stint at American Idol.
Fil-Am R&B singer who made it 'almost' in Season 5. Judges Randy Jackson and Paula Abdul gave him a spot in the second semi-final rounds BUT he was eliminated before the finals.
Zhar Santos or Sharon Galvez
Smokey Mountain singer Zhar Santos appeared in the AI's 4th season. She reached the Hollywood rounds before being cut in the Top 24 selection.
Camile Velasco
From Hawaii, Camile went on to become one of Season 3’s two Fil-Am finalists (with Jasmine Trias) and ended her AI journey in the 9th spot.
Thia Megia
16 year old that time, lauded for her performances but was criticized for always selecting ballads, and was voted off in the 4th elimination round of the finals.
Jasmine Trias
Also from Hawaii, Jasmine placed 3rd in Season 3, the highest place for a Fil-Am before Jessica Sanchez in eleventh season.
After Idol, Trias flew in Philippines and did TV shows, commercials and billboard ads. She even recorded 'Love Ko 'To' promotional single for McDonalds.
Ramiele Malubay
The only Fil-Am that showed the most Pinoy flavor after confessing Regine Velasquez as her favorite performer.
Malaya Watson
And this year, another Fil-Am is now making buzz in the 13th Season of American Idol.
Watson, whose name means free in Filipino, received a standing ovation from the judges after her performance of the song “I Am Changing” from the Broadway play-turned-movie “Dreamgirls” made her safe in Thursday night’s elimination round.
Do you think Malaya will make it to the finale? Don;t miss every Malaya's journey in #AmericanIdol13!
