It's been a year since I wrote my last blog. Too busy schedule. Working almost 12 hours a day. Sleep for only 3-4 hours and get myself ready for work again. Anyway, I got the chance to sit down on my PC again and continue writing on my blogs as long as I have the time.
So what am I going to write on my blog now? It's about Young talents I read at newspapers, I saw on television, and some interesting links on my Facebook account. Listed below are those that I see who are trending and becoming more and more popular nowadays. Read on and find out...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JuliElmo
This love team, composed of Julie Anne San Jose and Elmo Magalona, which is brought up by Party Pilipinas made these both personalities more popular than ever especially to teens their age. Julie Anne's popularity started with Sugarpop, then after hitting million views on all the videos (cover) she did at YouTube, and lastly with her performances at Party Pilipinas. Elmo, on the other hand, is already known because of his family roots. His grandparents are both actors. His dad, the late King of Rap Francis M, is the Master Rapper of all time (starting Dekada Nubenta). Even Elmo's other siblings are also into showbiz namely Maxene, Saab, and Frank. His younger brother Arkin is also hitting the stage and doing rap acts (latest is when he rapped during Leana Tabuñar's Debut at Party Pilipinas).
JuliElmo is getting more and more popular. I've watched the short film "Red Mask" and the Musical "Wazak Love Story" which are both produced by Party Pilipinas and I can see, even though I'm already out of my teens, that Julie Anne and Elmo really look great together. They have that natural Charisma which makes them picture perfect as a couple. They are young, yes! But that's where everything starts like any other couple in showbiz. I hope that in the future they star in a lead role in a movie. For Julie Anne, Upcoming albums and so is with Elmo. He can Rap, and he does Rap greatly.
Julie Anne can rap. And she too does the rap thing so awesome. But what I really love about her is her renditions on the Beatles songs. I love the Beatles. I'm an old school classic music lover and she did a fantastic job singing those songs. And that's 2 thumbs up from me and a shouting "Rak En Rol" and behind me are millions of claps from those who believes in you. Lastly, Julie Anne is composed of natural beauty and a powerful voice.
More power to them and more success in the coming years.

YOUTUBE SENSATIONS
Aside from Julie Anne San Jose, there are other Filipinos who are getting the attention of most of the viewers at YouTube. Not only by fellow Filipinos but also from foreign countries.
Charice Pempengco rose to fame after being invited by Ellen Degeneres at the Ellen Degeneres show in the US. Charice's singing talent, after the Ellen show, made her way to hollywood. Currently, she is part of the TV show GLEE.
Younger talents include Maria Aragon, a 10 year old Canadian national born from Filipino parents. After posting a video of her singing "Born this Way" which is popularly sang by Lady Gaga, many viewed the said video, including Lady Gaga herself. A Tweet from Gaga to all her followers at Twitter made Maria an instant star. Gaga personally invited Maria to perform at her concert through a phone patch on a Radio Station in Canada.
Arjohn Gilbert, the singing aeta from Clark, Pampanga also was noticed because of his videos wherein he sang Justin Beibers "Baby", "Just the way you are" and others. Just lately he was invited at Gandang Gabi Vice wherein he showcased his singing talent.
lastly, is 8 year old Leana Tabuñar. A cute little girl who got noticed because of her video singing "Pricetag". She sang the song so clear. All the words pronounced clearly and the voice is quality. She can even do the rap part of the song and I can say she did great at it. Because of her talent, she is now part of Party Pilipinas where she debuted last August 21. She sang the song "Pricetag" along with Arkin Magalona, who performed the Rap portion of the song.

TWEEN ACADEMY of 2012
The show Tween Hearts, top-billed by the love teams of Joshua Dionisio - Barbie Forteza and Jake Vargas - Bea Binene, together with Joyce Ching and Kristofer Martin, Lexi Fernandez and Derick Monasterio, Louise delos Reyes and Alden Richards, Elmo Magalona is the basis of the film. The film is set to be released on August 24, 2011.
Did I mention August 24? That is today! And I hope that from their first film are more films to come. Like the casts of TGIS who went popular on the said show 13 or 14 years ago, they went from one film to another film and eventually more projects. That I wish would be for the cast of Tween Hearts. Not only them, but to all the young talents which are discovered and will be discovered in the future.
Thank you for this nice article. I love JuliElmo too! :)
