I Am Telling You To Watch This

In her first appearance on American television, 15 year-old Charice Pempengco from the Philippines performs an incredible version of, “And I Am Telling You.” It is one of the most incredible performances I've ever seen.


next: Breaking News! ...Well, It's Not Actually Breaking Anything. It May Have Knocked A Few Things Over, But There Was No Damage

Hi ellen, it's Mary Wetherbee from Tucson Az,
i call you almost daily. I would love to play
gold digger, why?, well i live with my 3 husband
and tuesday my son(he's 17) is being sentenced
to prison, then i'm going to see my daughter in
June and my two grandkids which are both disabled,
my grandson is missing a piece of his brain, and
my granddaughter has a tumor on her nose. My daughter wants to marry the father but both have
no jobs and can't afford to be married. I would
love to go back there and help her with this.
I'm on Social Sercurity and i'm trying to save
some money for her, but its hard. If i can't play
gold digger i'd love a phone call from you.
Love ya,
Mary Wetherbee

well before Oprah, it was ELLEN who started all this YouTube discoveries. She is the Number One Global Talk Show Queen in the U.S. errrr World! hahaha. I was comparing the Oprah with Ellen last friday and hmmmmm seems like Ellen is making a run of Oprah's money. Oprah's show is so boring, makes me take a siesta...that's an afternoon nap in Spanish. hahaha.

hello ellen,

Thank you very much for the guest appearance of Charice in your show. I hope you invite her again this year. As a Filipino living here in Toronto, Canada, I am very proud of her. She is awesome talented girl with a golden voice.

Dear Ellen,

Thank you for giving Filipinos exposure in your show. I believe Charice is being precluded from mentioning your show during interviews due to contractual obligations. During local interviews,however, Charice keeps mentioning that she owes you a lot for the success she is reaping now. All of us here in the Philippines owe you a lot. MABUHAY KA, ELLEN!(Long live, Ellen!)

You know, the Philippines is overflowing with talents. SARAH GERONIMO is one and she is really good being one of the mentors of Charice. Her rendition of "If I were a boy" is just amazing. Pls check it out.

Hi Ellen,
Charice is just so amazing. I truly adore her.
But you know what, you and Oprah are more amazing by believing in her. I've always been a fan of yours.

Wishing you an exceedingly abundant and blessed 2009 that you may continue to believe in others.
