someone not to be missed!
I haven't really been into Filipino music lately, but I swear, this girl sings so good on her records, but she's even better live. Definitely not the typical popstar who dances and sings, but her voice would totally blow you away. But I think her best giveaway is that even after all her successes, she is still considered as on of the most humble young celebrities in her country. QUOTE
Sarah Geronimo was born July 25, 1988. Sarah is the third of four children with siblings Johna Rizzie, Sunshine Grace, and Ezekiel Gabriel.Her father Delfin Geronimo, a former telephone company employee, and mother Divina, who was a beautician.
Sarah’s was trained by her father. They would practice everyday to develop her singing prowess.
Star For A Night hosted by Ms. Regine Velasquez was arguably the singing contest that catapulted Sarah Geronimo to stardom. On March 1, 2003, at age fourteen Sarah Geronimo emerged as the grand prize winner of the said singing competition with her rendition of the song “To Love You More.” She won P 1 million and a managerial contract at Viva Artist Agency. The prize money was spent on tuition fees and the operation of her eldest sister.
After this turning point what followed are albums, concerts, her own soap opera, a mainstay at ASAP (a Sunday variety show), supporting roles in movies, endorsements, and legions of fans. She became a popstar, a teen princess, a role model.
Sarah Geronimo paved the way for the next generation champion singers. They are Mark Bautista, Rachelle Ann Go, Raymond Manalo, Erik Santos, Sheryn Regis, Christian Bautista, Frenchie Dy, Jerome Sala, and more still competing. At ASAP, champion singers show off their winning form at Champions Showdown.
When not busy being a popstar, Sarah Geronimo spends time with her family, they go to Sunday mass. Sarah enjoys reading J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter, and plays video games.

And from what I know, she regularly does shows in the West Coast. =)
Anyway, here are a few of her videos, do give her a try. I really think she's an amazing singer.
This is my current favorite song of hers, "A Very Special Love". The first link is the MV and the next one's the performance. It's in English. I think she really sounded good in the live.
