Wow!

Check out Broadway diva Lea Salonga belt out Lady Gaga's Poker Face from last night's Your Songs concert at the PICC in the Philippines (above).

It's pretty awesome!

      "Miss Saigon" has some strong lungs and definitely did justice to the song. Wonderful.

      I am sorry. I thought this was Perezhilton.com. However, since there are so many stories/parodies about Lady GaGa, I am assuming this is her official website.
      ——-
      Please let me know when the original Perezhilton.com is back up and running.

      Yeah, sure the cover is nice. She sings it "exactly" the way GAGA sings it. Check out GAGA's acoustic version on Youtube. She could of at least put her own vocal spin on it. You cannot upgrade something that is already perfect. *FAIL*

      Why bother to hit the streets and develop sources for gossip, when I can go to Y o u t u b e and post three Lady Gaga themed clips.
      BTW Leo Salonga can more aptly be described as a recording artist or Filipino singing star but Broadway Diva is stretching things too far for a woman who has really only originated one role (though well awarded and praised for it) on Broadway, as well as one revival and being one of dozens to step into roles in Les Miz.

      OMG Lea Salonga is a Broadway GOD!!! This is sooooo out of her element, and I loved it!!!!

      She needs to be on Glee along with Idina



    11. 11

      Owww, my ears are bleeding. I only made it 20 secs in. Jeez, Perez ya shoulda posted a warning.



    12. 12

      It seems like everyone loves Lady GaGa including me!

      There's a flagon of hobos under a bridge somewhere, caked in dried vomit & shit & the general detrius of a homeless life. They have a small transistor radio that's pushing out a tinny sounding Lady Gaga song (it doesn't matter which one - they all sound exactly the same), all the knobs are missing so no one can change the station & all are too drunk to care. One by one they begin to dance & sing although their limbs & throats no longer work as nature intended. None move in simpatico with the other, the music or the bitch cvnt life that dragged them here…
      Can you please show that on Channel Gaga???
      '24 Hour Gaga'
      'All the latest Gaga'
      'Gaga's Caca On Channel Gaga'
      'When Too Much Gaga Is Never Enough'

      Re: ap076 – Only originated one role? Wow–Julia Murney only originated one FAILED show (Lennon) but she is no less a Broadway diva. Lea not only was Miss Saigon, but revived Flower Drum Song. Her spins as Eponine and Fantine (which I was lucky enough to see first hand) were more than mere replacements!! Hello, no one's Eponine is better than Lea (Salonga's) and the only Fantine that holds a candle to hers was Patti Lupone herself.



    16. 16

      im so proud of her :)



    17. 17

      Wow go Lea! Proud to share her name. Plus she is Jasmine from Aladdin's singing voice and Mulan's singing voice!



    18. 18

      She was such a good Eponine in Les Miserables. She's fantastic!



    19. 19

    20. 20

      She's such a strong singer. I love Lea Salonga.



    21. 21

      Re: loveya1 – We will have to agree to disagree as to what qualifies one as a broadway diva.
