My hunger for more videos of Charice did not stop in Star King. I had this urge to know where these all began.
As I tirelessly searched for more videos, I learned that these all started with one video post of a fan named FalseVoice of her wildcard performance in Little Big Star, a local talent show in the Philippines hosted by Sarah Geronimo, loosely patterned after American Idol.
Wildcard performance? Yes, it was a callback for all contestants who were given a second shot. She was already eliminated in the first round of the competition.
In that performance she sang, I Will Always Love You by one of her biggest idols, and mine too, Whitney Houston.
See for yourself why she got the slot Charice - I Will Always Love You - Little Big Star. Unfortunately, or rather fortunately, she only placed 3rd in the competition.
Going back to the video. This video of Charice caught the attention of Ten Productions from Sweden who had initial recordings with her, but did not push through, but it gave way to more promising career.
The same video and others posted by False Voice were seen by the producers of the Korean show Star King, that prompted them to invite Charice in the show. Another fan (coolsmurf) posted this video of Charice which Ellen Degeneres saw.
It's a chain reaction. From fans who love Charice to death, who had no idea what to expect and whose only intention was to show the world that in the Philippines, there was one little girl with a big voice, can outsing all girls her age.
Without any hint, this Star King Video had been seen by many.
