I followed Lea Salonga growing up & turned into a beautiful young lady to a gorgeous young woman 💖 I love her so dearly...she's the same age as my oldest daughter 💖 Angelic voice she has 🌹
The Universe must have a hand in it to land in the Philippines as its final search, and, voila "Kim" is in the person of Lea Salonga. And the rest is history!
The Universe has spotted the small islands of the Philippines and right in Manila city was this young, small and charming lady, named Lea Salonga (who was just 17 y.o.), and, voila, "Kim" was found. It was a heaven-sent event that hit Manila as part of global search for this great musical show that also found several other Philippine theater artists that complete the 'Miss Saigon' cast in West End, London. Ms. Lea Salonga had paved the way for Asian artists to have opportunities to play in West End and Broadway as well as touring musical productions in different parts of the world. This is a great interview. Amazing lady interviewer!👋😘
According to one of the composers, one of the reasons they chose to go to Manila and hold auditions was because of a Lino Brocka movie. Schonberg saw this movie in Paris and it struck him how beautiful the scoring was and it stayed with him.
This is just more than detailed as what we usually have been watching and reading from other media sources. The nitty gritty of this interview is like a girl-heart-to-heart talk with the Tony Award winning actress. Thank you for the precise revelation of what we have not known yet. Thanks for uploading this video, this made me subscribe and gave thumbs up.
Wow! I thought this was another typical interview about how Lea started her career. But so many details about the show was also revealed. I didn’t even know these controversies existed before. Amazing!
Lea was a young woman in the 10th anniversary concert of Les mis as the street urchin and returned to the stage as Fantine in the 25 anniversary concert of les mis.
She is exactly correct. People who taught me my profession told me to pass on what they gave me. She is tiny but mighty. I know she is married, and certainly respect that, but I’m in love anyway.
well might have been really her birthday gift to the fandom ...to share this nitty gritty details as this was /published on her birthday feb 22 ... casting and "race" . she take on roles with historical impact or 'content' as what is the term nowadays (Music and Disney and theater God's will destiny trumps and win over the prejudices and stereotypes at mga maling akala .... yay!!!
“Even people who haven’t seen miss Saigon think “miss Saigon, controversy.” Uh no lol. Never heard about this until now and I’ve seen the show three times.

Lea is an exceptional performer. Filipinos are so so proud of you.
Im very proud of Ms Lea Salonga..My kababayan!👏👏👏👏 She deserved to be One of Our National Artist..she is one of a kind..🥰❤️❤️❤️
I agree, she should be for no Filipino artist has ever accomplished as much internationally as Lea Salonga.
I had a crush on her growing up in the Philippines. 20 years later I still have a crush on her.
The best one on one interview of Lea Salonga!

When Lea Salonga is talking, you literally don't needed a subtitle. ♥
And no need for us to refer to lyrics when she sing as well.
Even when she sings, she enunciates every word perfectly.

Legend
The best interview I watch
This Interview is the most complete Story of how Lea got the role....coming from Lea herself
Thanks a lot for sharing this video .
i love lea..
Thank you
I wonder if someone who knows how to edit videos could edit out all the hiccups “repeating bits” since this is a really nice interview.
Her speaking voice reminds me so much of Lara Fabian.
“Even people who haven’t seen miss Saigon think “miss Saigon, controversy.”
Uh no lol. Never heard about this until now and I’ve seen the show three times.
Where did you find this rare video of Ms. Lea Salonga? Woaahhh
From internet archive. There are 28 clips and i used online merger. It turned out this way. 😓
@@poomnakyutti Ooo that's explains the doubling.. thank u for the video~!
Non stop repeats
Love U Lea
Omg I love this woman. Don't you?
The host kept cutting her off, and Lea was getting annoyed of her.
This interviewer interrupts a lot. Annoying.
I love you pretty Leah
And look at Vietnam now. And look at Vietnam now.
yeah good video. yeah good video.
💖💖💖💖💖
Ok come on, she's likeable as well.
👏👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️
Did she ever get to play her dream roles?
Great interview except why does it keep on jumping?
So many parts repeating, it feels almost deliberate. Maybe it avoids copyright strikes for some strange reason? Weird.
Shess sounds like .... not pinoy talagang hasa ang dila pgdating sa english
Original Boy Band. “Osmond Brothers”
Ricky Martin & the rest of Menudo are her friends since childhood ...
Jackson 5
Nope, THE BEATLES, the G.O.A.T.
Lea salonga.. BIG NAME...
Annoying repetition in the sound. Has anyone noticed this?
It's nuts. Wish this could be cleaned up.
My idiol👏👏👏
I wonder what year this interview was done.
May5,2011
22:18 "the more, the manyer" hahahaha
I LOVE KLIM.
God the editing is absolutely terrible
The interviewer keeps interrupting her. How annoying! 😝
Leah kept cutting off the interviewer.
True. Hahaha but it’s okay. We love her
Actually the interviewer is cutting her (as they usually do), but Lea keeps talking which I think is great, since she finishes what she starts.
@@j.p.3345 You missed the joke.
Yeah,I noticed that too.I thought thats the way in the theater.You start your song before your partner ends.
Repeating talking
Who is the interviewer?
Maria Hinojosa hosted her own show for five years on PBS, One-on-One
