She's a LEGEND.. well known internationally.. Filipinos are so proud of her.
Thank you so much for watching!
Not all Pinoy actually!
Because not all have the access through the internet.
And not all love theater and have a chance to see them.
Get it?
@@evildisaster8149 reading comprehension, dude...
@@evildisaster8149not everything you see in the internet goes global.
The same way that not all global icons are known first in the internet.
stop it
FYI, Lea Salonga WON THE TONY AWARD FOR MISS SAIGON. Lea is actually a child prodigy..While singing, acting and dancing on stage, TV and movies, she still got the top honor in high school as a valedictorian.
The production team went to several world capital cities and finally landed in Manila, Philippines and ended up hauling away more than half the cast all from Manila alone!
Testament to the talent pool in Manila alone .
They were in despair and for some reason ended up in Manila. Surprise! They wanted to take the whole Philippines with them.
The whole documentary is worth watching.
True ❤
@@OrientalMonkeyBusiness may I know where I can watch the whole documentary? Thank you

She has a crystal clear voice...and her diction and pronunciation is really amazing......
Many consider Lea's performance of "On My Own" with the London Symphony on the 10yr. anniversary of "Les Miz" to be the best ever done. It is a masterclass in vocals. Well worth anyone's time.
Plus, Lea's rendition of 'A Fall of Rain' (also from her role as Eponine in Les Miz), Eponine's dying scene with Marius (Michael Ball) will bring you to tears. It is lesser known but so poignant of a scene. Link: th-cam.com/video/IyPy2Iqq-NM/w-d-xo.html
"On My Own" was Lea's audition piece for Miss Saigon...
I saw a compilation Tiktok and honestly, her rendition is a league of its own. You can distinctly hear the difference.
what year???
Lea Salonga was 17 yrs old during the Miss Saigon auditions. And she is 52 y/o now. Her voice is just as beautiful. And her singing is always perfection.
She was the singing voice of Jasmine in Aladdin, Mulan, Miss Saigon and she also did Les Misérables.
Story time no one asked for:
I'm a 42 year old singer who used to do musical theater from age 13 to 18. Lea Salonga TO THIS DAY has the most pristine, perfect, emotion evoking voice of all time. Every single time I hear her, especially looking back on this audition, I cry in a pile of goosebumps. My first audition ever was for The Wiz. I had no experience whatsoever other than belting out Miss Saigon songs in my room besides my regular Whitney and Mariah jams. In secret. My middle school friends and I all were die hard Depeche Mode and Morrissey fans. I didn't want to be made fun of for singing show tunes in my room. Anyway, my Mom's best friend begged me to audition for The Wiz, which he found in the newspaper, and bribed me with 20 bucks to just go audition. I had no fucking clue what I was doing. This audition was held in this huge warehouse where everyone was wearing jazz shoes and very professional. I rolled up in all black with my Converse high tops and hair that was giving 90's Cranberries. I was given a cassette to borrow that had an instrumental version of "I'd Give My Life For You" so I gave the assistant the tape and went off. I could feel the vibrations of my voice echoing throughout the warehouse and when I was done, everyone stood up and people were crying. I was blown away. I got a "call back" for thr role of Dorothy and was thinking there's no way I would go from belting in my bedroom to carrying a whole entire musical on my own with ZERO experience. I ended up getting that very role and it was hell on earth learning a million lines, acting, following choreography, and learning so many songs. My director used to scream at me until I cried. Longer story longer, I sold out every show and got standing ovations during the last note I held out in the finale song. I was in the newspaper, people knew who I was in my city, and I got asked to sing for the mayor and sang the National Anthem at a few sporting things. 13 and 14 were some crazy years for me and nothing will ever compare to the feeling of a standing ovation. Every single person deserves one at least once in their life. End of story. Thank you for reading if you did! 💕
❤❤❤
Fantastic story
This is not a brag. This is an awesome story and you should tell it often.
You have a great writing style! I enjoyed the quick read. Sorry to hear about the director screaming at you, particularly given your age at the time! Awful!
She’s the first Asian to win Laurence Olivier and Tony Awards for her performance in Miss Saigon
yan na naman tayo😅 😅 mga pinoy talaga
@@89altheathe guy didn't even mention Filipino in his/her comment. What are you yapping about?
@@89althea true the fire hahaha.

Lea Salonga is one of the Philippines treasure in terms of music!
Proud Pinoy!
They went around the world to search for that one voice they are looking for. And when they heard her voice. They all packed up and went home because they finally found the treasure ❤😊
The voice the will be loved by all generations 😊
🗡️🚿Would have never expected to see an RV on Lea Salonga yet but I’m glad you checked this out. She had already been in theatre since she was 5, I think. She played Annie in the theatre.
I think she was 17 or 18 years old in this video.
She is known to have a photographic memory and perfect pitch.
🔪🚿 I was amused at Lucas' reaction right after Lea began singing the first line. She was around 17 in this video and had already started in pre-med when she auditioned for Miss Saigon. But before that, she was a child prodigy who started in musical theater and later branched out to pop singing, acting and commercial modeling. She is known to have a perfect pitch on top of her already prodigious vocal chops. Today she would be around 51 or 52, and widely recognized in the Philippines and throughout the world as an icon in musical theater. It's amazing to look back at this and realize that being cast as the female lead in Miss Saigon was both a life-changing and career-defining event for her. Enjoyed the banter in this reaction again!
Yes, I was amused to watch this. I’m glad this was preserved… mesmerizing to watch her start of her international stardom from this audition stream.
No one ever documented that Lea has perfect pitch.
@@aasoriano8467 It was Regine who said so in an interview some years ago. She said that between the two of them, Lea has perfect pitch, whereas she (Regine) has relative pitch.
Just because someone said so and so doesn't make it true, for you or anyone to echo and post, almost reporting that it is TRUE. Even if it came from Regine or any famous celebrity.
It is an obvious misguided claim because several people (I think including you) don't know what Perfect Pitch means.
Lea has denied it. Research that for yourself.
Also, if Lea had in fact perfect pitch, it would surely be a known thing and made trivial esp in Ph tv, given its uniqueness and entertainment value.
Lea was THE first Miss Saigon. Macintosh's team held auditions in different countries but couldn't find the right one to play the lead role, til they came to Manila and found not just Lea but Monique Wilson too as the understudy, and a whole bunch of other stage talents, all products of Repertory Philippines stage company.
She’s the reason why I started singing, as a Filipina kid in America not knowing English, listening to her and practicing her songs helped me find my voice randomly when I couldn’t adapt fast enough here
She was 17 years old here. She's 52 now, and still has that great voice. Watched her in concert a few weeks ago in California.
Lea Salonga was only 17 years old when she auditioned for the role of Kim in the musical production of Miss Saigon. That was year 1988. She's 52 years old now. She's a living legend in the Philippines entertainment industry. Her voice has such crystal-clear musicality when she sings, which many have so admired.
"The first Filipino to win the prestigious Lawrence Olivier Award, the Tony Award, The Dramatic Desk Award and The Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Performance by an Actress in a musical as she played the original role of Kim in Miss Saigon."
I believe she was 17 in this video because she turned 18 after the premiere of Miss Saigon. I think this audition was for Miss Saigon not Aladdin. Love you guys. God bless!
🇵🇭 pride. Filipino’s pride. Lea Salonga the broadway legend.
Ito na naman ang comment na ganito..😂😂😂
Because she is one of the few artists in the Philippines who can really read musical notes and knows how the melody goes based on the arrangements. Such a genius lady
You're making Filipinos sound like idiots who can't sight read. It's second nature to people with musical background.
This is an excerpt from the documentary film called The Heat is On: The Making of Miss Saigon which came out around 1989/1990. Lea Salonga was 17 in 1988 when she auditioned for the lead role. In the movie Boublil and Schönberg went to several major cities looking for Kim (aka Miss Saigon) and though they found many talented young women, they still haven’t found THE ONE. They noticed though that many of the “almost Kims” were of Filipino heritage so they decided to come to Manila even if it wasn’t on the list of audition venues. Not only did they find their Kim in Lea Salonga, they also found her alternate in Monique Wilson as well as 20+ other actors to join the original West End cast. This clip is the call back for Lea to test how she would sound singing songs from the musical. For her original audition she sang On My Own (also by Boublil and Schönberg) and was asked to sing another song. Though she had not prepared a second song she sang The Greatest Love of All, for which Schönberg supposedly asked her to “not sing it like her” meaning Whitney Houston. Obviously Lea did an excellent job because she eventually was casted as Kim (for which she won the Laurence Olivier and Tony as well as others like Theater World, Drama Desk, etc). She also became a Disney Princess twice (!!!) by being the singing voice of Princess Jasmine and Mulan.
She sings a whole new world of Jasmine in Aladdin and reflection in Mulan 😊
Singing voice of jasmine and mulan. She also played eponine and fantine in Les Mis.
Lea Salonga was the first Asian actress to play Eponine and Fantine in Les Misérables on Broadway
We have a joke here in Ph that her voice is clearer than our future. She is one of the most crystal clear voices in the world. Moreover, she is also pitch perfect.
Leah was only 17 during this Ms Saigon audition. And when she was casted as Kim one of their problems was the kissing scene bec of her age, so they got proper approval from her parents. She turned 18 during the run of Ms Saigon. Leah is now 52years old. She really is one of those singers whose voice barely changed throughout the years and she is one of our rare international artists that had formal trainings in music during her early years.
That audition was in 1988, she was 17 at the time.
She have a professional singing through out her life. She was since 7 years old in one of prestigious music conservatory in the Philippines so she is in almost into perfection. She is a legend and so sad that kind of talent first recognized outside of her country😢. She is very good but almost underrated in her own country.
They've gone around LA, NY, SF, Hawaii, Vietnam, Thailand , round asia in search of KIM, .. No luck, but they were so surprised to find the wealth of talents who auditioned in the Philippines including Lea and Monique.... pls search for that "Making of Miss Saigon" film which i saw during that time....
please do a reaction of Lea Salonga and Brad Kane before and after singing A whole new world 🙏
Yes, I recommend this one too! :D
glad you did this RV ❤️🇵🇭
Ms. Lea is the GOAT. She has been known to be super strict in her regimen to care for her voice, she still trains and is very disciplined. She does not neglect it so that is why she still maintains that distinct bird-like quality of her voice
Disney legend and Broadway diva❤❤❤
Can we just spend some moments in awe of the fact that she sang with and was recognized and picked by Claude-Michel Schonberg himself? (For those who don't know, he was one of the people who came up with the idea to make a musical version of Les Miz and composed the score for it.) Legend.
She should be declared A National Artist!

#LeaSalonga 👑
#Respect 💛
Her version of A whole new world with il divo pls, the one they filmed in Japan pls. She recently surprises a bride on her wedding and sang A whole new world and Reflections. It's here on youtube. Also sang for the state dinner in the White house just a few hours ago.
She was probably 17 years old when she auditioned for Miss Saigon. She’s 52 now and will soon appear in Here Lies Love on Broadway with an all-Filipino cast.
Super excited that Lea will be part of the Broadway show HERE LIES LOVE (she is also one of the producers), but she will only be in the show for 5 weeks and she won't be in the show for the first few weeks of the show. (I believe she goes in right before the show opens). Still, I'm excited because it means Lea will promotion for that new musical. ALSO - There was a tribute concert to the late Stephen Sondheim in London that will now have a 16-week limited engagement: STEPHEN SONDHEIM'S OLD FRIENDS. Bernadette Peters was in the concert and this will be her West End debut. And Lea will be part of the limited engagement - her first time in a West End show in almost 30 years! I can't wait for Lea be doing promotion for this show (it begins in September) and to see clips of Lea singing Sondheim!!!
She was in a Repertoire , Philippines that’s was her voice is really amazing and the clarity of her diction and voice is good . I’m proud of her and a very disciplinarian person ❤️
2:53 Lea played Eponine in Les Miserables
Whenever I listen to Lea’s songs, especially these classics, I always end up with a huge smile on my face and my eyes would get teary. Her voice is so beautiful
So lucky how we have that process recorded!
When Lea hits the low note and then beautifully transitions I just fall apart. She is an incredible singer, one of the best I have ever heard.
She’s been my number one idol since I started singing. Which was really early in my childhood coz of all the karaoke in the Philippines hahaha! Love her so much
She was so good they brought her in for the Dream Cast of Les Mis, then came back for a different part years later. She also has perfect pitch
It doesnt fail to make me smile hearing that...
waaaahhh GKD reacting to my ultimate fave singer ..im a disney kid, lea salonga fan..wooohhhh!!! love you guys
*Lea Salonga is an absolute global icon! From Princess Jasmine to Fa Mulan, Fantine to Eponine, she has brought so many iconic women characters to life. A true **#Legend*
Lea has been in the Musical Theatre in the Philippines since she was a kid so she knows music and notes very well. Same with her brother which is more on playing musical instruments.
Finally ❤ more Lea Salongga RV please. 🙏
OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH MS. LEA SALONGA. THE PHILIPPINES PRIDE OF ALL TIME.
Lea Salonga 🔥
That’s not 17 years ago - but Lea was 17 years old then
I think they're talking about when the video was uploaded in youtube. Of course the original video has already been 3 or more decades already.
I think she is in her 50s now. Her voice is still crystal clear. ❤ and still looks younger. 😁
I grew up listening to her. She is a real gem. She is also known to have perfect pitch 😊
Filipinos what do u drink to be this talented.
🔪🚿Love love Lea Salonga. Thanks for your reaction. 😊
She won many international awards including Tony awards. She is the original artist in Disney’s Mulan “Reflection” and Disney’s Jasmine “A whole New World”. She started in Miss Saigon broadway in age of 18 and sang for decades in London in New York’s broadway shows as lead cast in Miss Saigon and Eponin in Les Miserables.
This clip is from a documentary on the making of Miss Saigon, rather than an original TH-cam clip.
She’s in her mid to late 50’s now. She was in the King and I in 1978
Lea turned 52 in February 2023. (She was born on Feb 22, 1971.) That first professional job in 1978 was when Lea was only 7 years old playing one of the children in THE KING AND I. Edited to add: Lea recorded "A Whole New World" for the Disney film Aladdin just before her 21st birthday (early 1992) and the film came out near the end of 1992. Lea has been aging BEAUTIFULLY (it's tough to tell her age from pics or videos), but her voice is practically unchanged.
I think she was 15 or 16 years old at that time,she's now in her early 50s
The audition for ms saigon was in 1987 when she was 17yrs old… while aladin was in 1991…Lea was in her 50s now….Cameron Mcintosh who signed was the producer of Ms Saigon…the auditon team came to Manila after doing from other parts of the world realizing that they found the Kim in the Philippines
Dude is musos who went to special music schools had to do choir regardless if you were a singer or not - it was for a reason to help with sight reading and pitch to make us more rounded with our instruments.
This those of stuff we would have to do every choir practice with new pieces 😂
Memories
But her voice is so pure
There's a lot of talented Filipino singers in the Philippines...
More Lea Salonga theater/Miss saigon reactions please!!!❤❤❤
She was 16-17 years old here and she is in her 50s now, she matured but her voice is still as amazing.. She is our pride. Please do more reactions of her including Les Miserables.. Thank you Josh and Lucas.
I remembered the first song i heard from lea salonga is "we could be in love" her duet with brad kane too, then i know she's filipines, (i thought she's american) i love her voice since i was in high school till now.
she was very active in musical theater at a very young age. she provided the singing voices of two official disney princesses - jasmin and mulan. 🤗💕🎶🎵🎤🎧🎉👏
Lea salonga has the most beautiful voice i have heard. Watched her on some of her theater performances and even if she screams, your ears will still love it! ❤
When she opened her mouth to release the first note, its as if an angel just descended from the heaven ❤
She’s 52 now…broadway & disney legend😊
Thank you so much for watching!
The audition was actually held in the philippines thats why lea requests for the signature..
Regine V. was interviewed and told the media that among the famous singers in the Philippines, Leah Salonga is the Pitch Perfect for her. She witnessed during rehearsal that Leah can familiarize a new song just one time listening to it.
That DOESN'T mean perfect pitch. Don't spread Regine's mistake.
@@aasoriano8467 lol
Perfect pitch is not subjective. Regine was ignorant when and IF she actually said Lea has perfect pitch.
@@aasoriano8467 that's Regine side. I have not witnessed the said rehearsal. I hope I can discuss this with the people who were present at that time so for now I will hold onto her statement.
Lea's rendition of 'On My Own' during the 10th Anniversary concert of Les Miserables at the Royal Albert Hall is probably the best out there.
Lea is hardcore ARMY!!!
OMG……im having goose bumps rightnow…. I started watching your channel due to your reaction to gigi de lemas video, i even made a comment on one of her video about how im falling in love with her and her kind of music like how i fell with lea salongga back on the days, and then i saw this video….the nostalgia bruh…… thank you,
You guys made me realize first love never dies…😭 lol
By the way I am 43 this year, and i am sure that she was older than me because i was already watching her in TV shows back then when i was still in the philiippines, i think shes in her early 50s, but she can still sing A WHOLE NEW WOLD like it just came out yesterday…
Thanks again guys…
🗡🚿 Thank you. Yes Lea's voice hasn't changed at all. She still sounds like when she originally sang her songs.
Kindly include Lea Salonga and Brad Kane "A Whole new World" Good Morning America.
Try checking out her "Don't Cry for me Argentina", On My Own" and my fave of couse "Reflection". Thank you.
The guy with a bonnet he looks strict but if you watch him, you will see how handsome and lovely his eyes when he wink..oh my he is loveable eyes.🥰🥰🥰
You guys should react the longer version of this clips….
Thanks for reacting to Ms. Lea Salonga. I believe she was 16 years old when she did this audition & now in her early 50s.
Thank you so much for watching!
first time watcher here. your tattoo!!! hello fellow Army!
The video was shot around 1988 during Lea Salonga's audition for Miss Saigon which premiered in London in September of 1989. She was 17 years old then, and now she's turning 53 this February 2024.
That was actually when she was 17 years old, around1989ish (so around about 34 years ago), she's now over 50+ years old now
Lea is smart , she's an actress ,singer , performer , tv host and etc. She's the daughter of late Senator Salonga ,now she's married ,they have a house in U.S .and in philippines...
I love it that when I get home from work there’s always a video to watch from you guys ❤️❤️❤️
Just the first 2 words when she started..soooo smooth and soft and cuddly..I mean wth
She's already an icon in our country... She's the singing voice of Princess Jasmine of Aladdin & Mulan...
Lea has both wealthy,educated very decent parents a hands on Mom & kind.brilliant father,in my family's eyes,she's an epitome of a genuine,true princess 💖
Lea and her brother Gerard (now a world renowned composer) were raised in music... she did musical theater since she was a kid. And yes, sight-reading was part of the training back in the 1980s. Miss Saigon, I believe, premiered in 1989 in London. She must have been 16 or 17 during this audition, as she was 18 when they were promoting it. Lea is now in her early almost mid 50s.
I just hope you guys know the guy too, “THE Cameron Mackintosh” the British Theatrical Producer of Les Miserables and Miss Saigon.
I watched her perform this song on Broadway "Miss Saigon" and what I can remember was that I felt like she was an angel singing purely from heaven, her voice was so deliciously pleasing, though not as like those powerful voice of Broadway singers, it was really so sweet and pure...
You must also check her Miss Saigon performance and others like Le miserables etc., It's all worth it
I hope you react the the voicekids philippines nailing english song u will be like it
She sang the theme song of Aladdin “A whole new world”
I remember when she got that role and became the darling of London's West End. I think she was on her way to university for pre-med. Then we all know what happened...
Philippines world class singer am a big fan of Lea saw her broadway show just mesmerizing to watch her on stage .
The pride of all Filipinos- Lea Salonga.
That's some talent👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Leah Salonga is 52 years ATM of this post
Lea said that she auditioned when she was seventeen years old.
