Lea Salonga on The Good Morning Show in Australia

[@santi0089]

If there's a heirarchy of celebrities in the Philippines, then Lea Salonga is the highest in that pyramid. She is a gem of the Philippines. The national treasure of the country!

[@FOOJFOOJIYAMA]

Santi 008 Luko Luko! Wag mong ilahat ang pinoy gago! Hindi lahat bakla katulad mo!

[@bb89670]

Santi 008 She tried Hollywood, never made it so she went home back to the Philippines where she knows she can be more successful.

[@richmariahemancipate]

No question!

[@gnoldantaf6241]

@@bb89670 hello she never dip herself with Hollywood because she's more on Broadway, one of the highest pillar in entertainment industry, in fact a lot of Hollywood celebrities knew Lea Salonga., Hollywood, Broadway, Music and TV just circles around in entertainment.

[@vivdcln]

She did Hollywood shows.. 1995 she was the lead role Redwood Curtain, 2000 & 2003 she was also the lead role of As The World Turns. She guested in ER in late 90s or early 2000s and also guested in Crazy Ex Girlfriend last 2014.

[@aivycalamba3931]

i love her the way she talk. awesome and elegant!

[@mackztynne]

I agree. I wish I could speak English fluently and confidently like that.

[@helpstopanimalabuse8153]

Saw Lea yesterday at the Sydney Opera House. She is amazing live in concert. She had all 2679 people on their feet dancing & screaming go more after her version of Abba songs. A class act. Phillipinos should be proud. Flying down to Melbourne to see her again!

she looks younger and so beautiful.. what a legend. Filipino pride 😍

[@frankacuso]

Ivan Barrientos we are proud of her but please stop this "f# pride" comment. ...#! I cringe everyone this is mentioned.

[@zhaquiri]

frankacuso Agreed. It's one thing to be proud OF someone who is talented, but it's another thing to say you're a "proud Pinoy here" just because another Filipino is talented. This is not about US, but about the talented. Be proud of the talented, not yourselves, because we have absolutely nothing to do with the talent of the talented...we just happen to share a nationality with them, something we were simply born into and did not even work for.

[@solidsnort3757]

i don't care... obviously, you can make comments whenever or however you want. same goes to me. byeee

[@zhaquiri]

Ivan Barrientos Stoll doesn't negate the simple fact that you're making SOMEONE ELSE'S talent about you instead of them. Kapal ng mukha, para lang pwet ng baboon sa kakapal.

[@frankacuso]

Ivan Barrientos You should care. You should be responsible for what you post in the internet. Ang tingin ng iba sa atin ay mayabang, cocky, shallow minded, mapang-angkin. Dr. Norman G. Owen, who is based at University of Hong Kong, criticized the proliferation of hoaxes and exaggeration of historical facts in an effort to build on "Pinoy Pride", such as the claim that Agapito Flores was the inventor of the fluorescent lamp. Owen said that such exaggerations give an impression that by resorting to such acts, Filipinos as a people do not have much to be proud of, which he believes is not the original intention of such people engage in such acts.

[@rhisaalcala2730]

I love the way she talks, very fluent in English..

[@miguelguzman1495]

She kind of had a British accent when she was a teenager. And then at some point, she sounded just like Audrey Hepburn.

[@jeremiahasoy5621]

@@miguelguzman1495 - audry hepburn is not an accent. What you meant though is she sounds american now.

[@miguelguzman1495]

jeremiah asoy Read my comment again. I did not say that Audrey Hepburn is an accent. I clearly said “she sounded just like Audrey Hepburn”. That’s what I said. Because she did sound like Audrey Hepburn when she was a teenager after she somewhat had the British accent. An American accent is different from sounding like Audrey Hepburn. Next time, i suggest that you fully comprehend what you’re reading.

[@jeremiahasoy5621]

@@miguelguzman1495 - I thought you were talking about how she sounds nowadays. I know that she somewhat sounded like english back then but she unarguably does sound like american when and after she got her tony award.

[@markvincentcocjin]

When I was a young child in the early 80s, I remember Leah Salonga coming to our school in Benedictine Abbey and perform in a children's stage show with a giant tomato mascot named Ariz Kamatis. I forgot the other vegetables but she was a little girl back then and it was bizarre. Her mother groomed her to become a superstar but back then, everyone saw her as the local wonder child who would everyone adored.

♡ Amazing ♡ I've seen her up close and taken a picture with her. She is indeed a breath of fresh air! One thing I'd like to say though is; to those Filipinos who get all über patriotic and assertive and start calling her the Philippine's Pride and Joy and etc: we do this thing...and when we aren't proud of a fellow Filipino celebrity who goes international and gets into a scandal, we start talking them down and shaming them for making Philippines look bad. I'd like to say that these people have sacrificed a lifetime of themselves to their passions. And they should all be graced with how hard working they all are!!! Regardless of how they turn out. It makes Filipinos look like arrogant hypocrites and honestly pisses me off! -_- *end rant* On a more positive note, this interview was amazing. Lea is so inclusive and receptive as were the interviewers. These three have very good chemistry. I enjoyed this clip thoroughly. Thank you kindly for posting. ♡
