Charice on Glee More Season 2 spoiler
We got our first glimpse of Charice as the New Directions sings Alicia Keys’ “Empire State of Mind” on campus to attract new members (The national finals will be held in New York, hence the song). Lea smiles and glances at Charice, who is watching the choir.
There’s a funny bit by Lea as she presumes that Charice’s Sunshine does not understand English well (it’s humorously done, not offensive at all). She tries to entice Charice to audition for the New Directions.
Competition alert
But then she hears Charice sing in the bathroom and her competition alert instincts take over. She couldn’t help but join Charice in singing Lady Gaga and Beyonce’s “Telephone.”
The audience applauded the scene, and Charice must have heaved a big sigh of relief in her seat.
Of course, Jane’s Sue Sylvester gets the laugh as she enters the bathroom and yells at the two singing divas: “Shut up!”
Charice gets her spotlight when she auditions and sings Beyonce’s “Listen.” Three Filipino fans of hers in the audience, Monika Corpus, Mika Viado and my niece Elgeen Nepales, later told us they cried and had goose bumps. So proud they were of Charice getting this break on US mainstream TV.
The audience applauded again — Ryan was right.
Charice is not the only new kid on the block who will steal viewers’ hearts. Chord Overstreet (playing Sam Evans), with his Mick Jagger lips, croons Travie McCoy and Bruno Mars’ “Billionaire.” He sure had the girls in the audience swooning.
Another newcomer, Dot Jones, puts the fear in Sue’s heart as the new football coach. Combining toughness and emotional vulnerability, Dot provides fans with one more reason to watch “Glee.”
Episode-ender
Lea ends the episode
with a compelling version of “What I Did For Love” from “A Chorus Line.”
At the after-party held outside the theater, Charice said she felt relieved after the screening. Guests asked to have photos with her.
Matthew Morrison stayed by the yogurt stand, away from the main food stations—maybe that’s how he stays fit. He has a nice turn in this first episode as he connives with Sue. He’s conflicted about that, of course.
Cory Monteith said his stunned reaction to Charice singing “Listen” was for real. Cast mates Lea, Mark Salling, Diana Agron (beautiful as ever) and Harry Shum Jr. echoed Cory’s admiration of Charice’s singing talent.
Harry, whose dancing—and abs—win over Jenna’s Tina (to the heartbreak of Kevin McHale’s character), revealed that he visited the Philippines with his Filipina girlfriend last year. What do you know—Harry even went to my home province, Pangasinan, because that’s where her girlfriend’s family’s roots are. He knows about tricycles, adobo and all that! ......read more on inquirer.net
