I love watching these even a million times. This interview has proven that Lea Salonga is such a wonderful soul. She speaks with humility and pride for her craft. I love her.
Damn Lea!! 40 years!!!!!! We love you and you make us proud!!!! You represent Filipinos very well- with CLASS, SOPHISTICATION DIGNITY, AND PRIDE. You have never embarrassed us... not once! That is why I LOVE YOU SOOOOOO MUCH. Filipinos- please learn from her. Whether you like it or not, as an individual, you represent your people and your country everywhere you go and when you meet people. So make sure that you behave with class, sophistication, dignity, and pride! Remember that your behavior as an individual affects all of us Filipinos.
Wow! Lea Salonga is Legendary! No matter what.. 40yrs, and still the Pride of the Philippines ❤️❤️ I love you So much po Lea pls. Don't stop singing,and keep going I know God is always Bless you!! 😍❤️
Is it just me when I see something on CZcams that is about lea I'll keep watching over and over again It started last week I found a vid of a vocal coach reacting to her on my own (didn't search it) I got addicted I watched it over and over and watch her interviews and even watched les mis and miss saigon. I mean she got better at singing she is my inspiration ❤️❤️❤️
"there are so many talented people" -Lea. Thats right but for the 40 years of her career and in my 25 years, I have never heard a voice that could match Lea's. Philippines has so many talented singers but LEA is just so unique.
Lea Salonga was given a very beautiful voice by God and it is meant to be shared with the world. She is like the ambassador to the world! God Bless you Lea and your entire family!
Her fame is there, and still there. Because she's never takes drugs. And she's never did stupid things. Mrs Selonga, she's always smart and funny. God bless her.....
the interviewer is quite rude : "why do you lasted so much ? there are so many talented people ".... ARE YOU KIDDING ME ? SHE IS ABOVE TALENT !!! She is a rarity
My first impression was that this interview with Lea Salonga by Pinky Webb was aired in one of America’s TV channels, only to find out later that this is here in the Philippines.You guys have done well. We’ve done well in bringing this TV show to a world class level.
Looks like the stars in the universe are in her favor at the time of her conception. She's born to achieve greatness and continues to make remarkable history, which is rare. Obviously, she's a diamond in the sky.
Miss lea salonga is one of a kind talent...very intellectual... very spontaneous and sincere...you can feel ..a woman full of good breeding!!!!d kailangang mgpakasosyal ..shes natural!!!! 😊
At 40, wow I reckon Lea Salonga is a genius in our midst. Who else had put in much discipline and committed to almost a lifelong excellence starting at a tender age of 7, the voice is a God given talent and everything else that went along with it, the wit, the smarts, the sparkly and engaging personality, but she really made sure to put in the work and focus, and displayed no complacency or entitlement at all like other superstars. A really inspiring character!
I agree that Lea Salonga is truly a one-of-a-kind singer here in the Philippines. The reason why I think so is that she sings with clarity and care for her voice, she is not a "birit queen" but rather a storyteller that gives justice to the meaning of the song. Lea Salonga is truly a wonderful person, inside and out.
Aside from her singing I always love watching her interviews! I find it entertaining and informative, i was just like mesmerized by her everytime she talk and sing, of course. I can't wait to see her sold-out 40th Anniversary concert! I know it's going to be amazing show with full of entertainment and wonderful music! 😊🎤🎼🎵🎶🎹
I remember being so young and wishing I had the money to watch miss saigon.. that was year 2000. Anyway 2 decades later I finally got to watch leah salonga when she played Mrs. Lovett last year in the play sweeney todd. I have watched broadway plays in Dubai like Annie and I can definitely say Leah Salonga despite her age is just so wonderful and amazing! She is indeed a very talented artist and her experience in broadway really shines. I am glad I could finally watch her live.. hopefully I can watch one of her shows again after this pandemic. Although I still regret not getting to watch her play in Miss Saigon live.
Pinoy ako you're so lucky. I was 15 when miss saigon performed here in ph. And i was not interested in theater or musical that time. And i dont have the resources to watch her either that time.
wala pa ring kupas ang boses ni Ms. Leah Salonga (Ms. Saigon) . She is early 50's isn't it ? A perfect filipina , smart , simple and straight forward . Back to her fast she was young working at the young age. Everytime i hear " I am but a small World " my heart is trembling sa saliw ng kanta na iyan po. love you and kisses Keep safe ! Good 🅿Ⓜ -faith will move mountain- yolly/paul
Never siya na burn out kasi for most years sa ibang bansa naman siya nag trabaho, mas makatao ang training doon. Unlike dito sa Pilipinas they take advantage of your fame kaliwat kanan trabaho birit kung birit. Lea made a good choice leaving the country and now she has all the credibilities to choose the work that she wants to do.
I'm glad she is not considering cosmetic surgery versus plastic surgery, probably just purifying cleansing facial which is showing on her face, so smooth and healthy looking 😍
I prefer to listen to them both... Pinky and Leah both classy.. Minus the pasosyal effect of many who pretend not being able to pronounce the letter "R". I saw many CZcams videos of those "sosyal-wanna-bes" E.g. "i-Rrhool niyo yung Kahhrrne na nabili niyo pahhrra maayos na maibabad sa mahhrrinade". Bow to this humble theater queen. 😍
@@cheerp7313 I know... Akala nakakadagdag ng pogi at ganda points. Aysus...sa kanila Kasi "nakaka sosyal kuno, nakakayaman ang dating". Pero nakaka alibadbad.. Sarap hilahin mga dila. I'm sure nun mga nasa grade school at high school mga nag iinahhhrrtehh sa letter R Hindi ganun magsalita nuon. Hahahaha
I am super excited to go home just to see you! I missed your concert in Singapore 3 years back. I really don't mind if you do look back and sing a few songs from Les Miserables or Miss Saigon! Pleaaaase!
I want to know how she and Gerard was groomed by their mom Ligaya? I hope someday she will share the secrets of what did she do to have a beautiful and successful children like Lea and Gerard.
I hate you Leah Salonga!!!!!!I hate you for being soooo humble and sooooo talented and YETTTTT you are sooooo bubbly and uuuuggghhh why can't the other local singers/ artists be like you???? a world class artist with a with a bigger that life personality???? love love!
Wine smells and tastes better after proper ageing. Like cheese are, only the smell differs, cheese matures in smell and taste..smell transformed to mature and taste is from good to better. I haven't smelled lea yet..but i presume she smell sooo fresh when she was younger. LOL. I really admire her though!🙊🙊🙊
Agreed. Lea is so well-spoken! The good news is that Lea has a lot going on this year, so I think she will be doing a lot of interviews! Lea is one of the producers of the broadway musical HERE LIES LOvE and will be in the show for 5 weeks this summer. And then Lea returns to the West End stage in a show for the first time in decades with OLD FRIENDS this fall.
john hendriix that's her reaction to entitlement that Filipino gave her regarding paving the way, but to her it is too much and that she can never claim or accept all the credit.
tess castro I really adore her so much. She's very humble that she cannot handle the credits alone, she wants also to consider those Filipinos who was part also of the show. She is really a queen who kept her feet on the ground regardless to the fact of many achievements and pride she brought to our country.
I appreciate her talent, I’m proud as a Filipino for her achievements globally, when she speak though, it sounds like she’s acting in front of the camera or on a broadway stage. I wonder how she sounds in front of her family and friends off camera.
Hope I can be as fluent as Ms Lea. The pace and the accent, how I wish. ;< Just by watching this vid, you can already tell that she has the wit. She thinks first and consider what is on it before she will going to utter it.
Tama Lea they should not change the lyrics of our pambasang awit,Bayang Magiliw,iyon nga iba diyan di man alam katahin ang Bayang Magiliw tapos gusto pang palitan no way ka nga ng ameicano.
Lea Salonga is one of the wisest & most talented Filipina I’ve ever seen. She’s definitely a National Treasure.
True! She must be awarded a National Artist.
@@emilmenglou4653 nope.
Not anymore
for me Lea is now very qualified for being a National Artist of the Philippines based on her achievements....World Class Talent...
I love watching these even a million times. This interview has proven that Lea Salonga is such a wonderful soul. She speaks with humility and pride for her craft. I love her.
Pppppp
Lea Salonga is very beautiful, smart, humble and witty. The amazing Lea Salonga!
Damn Lea!! 40 years!!!!!! We love you and you make us proud!!!! You represent Filipinos very well- with CLASS, SOPHISTICATION DIGNITY, AND PRIDE. You have never embarrassed us... not once! That is why I LOVE YOU SOOOOOO MUCH.

Always loved Lea Salonga..her lovely voice, her diction and her classy looks..she’s amazing as always
the interviewer is quite rude : "why do you lasted so much ? there are so many talented people ".... ARE YOU KIDDING ME ? SHE IS ABOVE TALENT !!! She is a rarity

Question wasn't delivered in sarcasm. It's a question asked to get Lea's perspective.
My first impression was that this interview with Lea Salonga by Pinky Webb was aired in one of America’s TV channels, only to find out later that this is here in the Philippines.You guys have done well. We’ve done well in bringing this TV show to a world class level.

Nobody can reached what she had achieved.

Still beautiful as ever at 47. And very articulate, as usual.
Im so lucky that I was able to watch Miss Saigon with Lea Salonga as Kim
Pinoy ako you're so lucky. I was 15 when miss saigon performed here in ph. And i was not interested in theater or musical that time. And i dont have the resources to watch her either that time.
ONE PROUD LEA SALONGA fan hereeeee! 😍🙌❤
To that guy who said, “Ateneo will always be here!” Where are you?! Pls speak up now, I know you’re very proud of what Lea had become! ❤️

I like Lea Salonga. She knows how to use her talent and she has given the Phils. a great pride.
Her voice control is so perfect.
So humble in spite of all her successes. She's right; grab every opportunity that comes your way.
It's always refreshing to watch Lea...
she's 52 and looking like this. omg gorgeous
Ilove lea,i love her MS SAIGON THE BEST
I've been following her and adoring her for decades now. You make us proud Leah!
Interviewer can't even get Lea's humor when she said "it has been a long gap" cringey interview because Lea's carrying the whole conversation.
i admire her since i was a little girl until now that i'm already 18. she's just too pure and perfect and god damn lovely. i'm inlove with her.
She's 47 already!!! Woaaahhh!!!! Vampire 😍😍😍
Wow pang 5 times ko na itong inulit superb fantastic voice

No one can replace her nor follow her footsteps-she’s a Legend!!
She's always beautiful...i love her singing voice and the way she talk...walang ka kupas kupas ang boses....
She's more beautiful as she gets older 😍
I'm glad she is not considering cosmetic surgery versus plastic surgery, probably just purifying cleansing facial which is showing on her face, so smooth and healthy looking 😍
Lea Salonga legendary 💕

President Duterte the lost “r” hahaha 😂 I know what you mean. Nakakairita. Parang nagtatagalog with an American accent kunyari.

Celeste Legaspi is the bridge to her stardom

i wish filipinos support her more,,i mean shows on bigger venues like araneta and moa,,shes a legend
I want to know how she and Gerard was groomed by their mom Ligaya? I hope someday she will share the secrets of what did she do to have a beautiful and successful children like Lea and Gerard.
she is perfect in her own perfect world..❤️
I did not know that we can use the term long-sighted in that context.Good to know
Best version of TAKE ON ME I ever heard, and I'm not even being biased!
Nice rendition of my favorite 90s song from A-ha "take on me". I didn't know this exist.. it's been a year
Soooo beautiful... Such a beautiful voice, beautiful rendetion. Tears flowing like a river... Reminds me of so many good memories, this song...
Boses pikpik bansot!!!!!!
Lea smart have a good voice and always beautiful, idol kita lea since that's entertainment
i love lea so so much.really gifted.and she's just a few people to use that gift in a good way.
Take On Me -my favourite song of all time.
..then Forever Young and 99 Luftballons.
Nice interview. But also: I really like Lea's version of "Take On Me" and the amazing Cesar Aguas and his guitar playing!
She So Fresh As Always At Age 47She Still Is!!!
I hate you Leah Salonga!!!!!!I hate you for being soooo humble and sooooo talented and YETTTTT you are sooooo bubbly and uuuuggghhh why can't the other local singers/ artists be like you???? a world class artist with a with a bigger that life personality???? love love!
Lea age like a fine wine
Wine smells and tastes better after proper ageing. Like cheese are, only the smell differs, cheese matures in smell and taste..smell transformed to mature and taste is from good to better. I haven't smelled lea yet..but i presume she smell sooo fresh when she was younger. LOL. I really admire her though!🙊🙊🙊
Ma'am Lea Salonga beautiful, Talent and brain, ma'am Lea Salonga,...
I could talk to Lea all day, every day.
Ang ganda talaga ni lea Salonga ni d tumanda. Very smart , intelligent ,elite.
Oh my, that Take On Me cover deserves to be a single!!!
Hiro Lacang IKR 👍
She looks extra beautiful in that hair. I love you Captain Marvel.
Please interview Lea Salonga often. She is the most talented and interesting celebrity.
Agreed. Lea is so well-spoken! The good news is that Lea has a lot going on this year, so I think she will be doing a lot of interviews!

youre so inspiring Lea such a beautiful voice galing mo talaga youre excellent
She's a musical genius a national treasure
Correction Ms. Webb: it should be work ethic and not work ethics.
I like her smile. :D
"they giving me a whole lot of credit" hahahahaha. actually Ms Lea, those words aren't enough to give thanks to you.
john hendriix that's her reaction to entitlement that Filipino gave her regarding paving the way, but to her it is too much and that she can never claim or accept all the credit.

Shes so pretty...my ultimate crush
Bansot!!!!!!!!
She's my ultimate favourite!!
Because "I am exceptional". Thanks.
wow... amazing version of A-HA's great song of the my generation. thank you miss Lea.
1971 February 22 pearl of wisdom
😍😍😍😍 I love you mommy lea😍😍😍
Perfect!🥰🥰🥰
Ganda! Ganda! Ganda! Ganda! Stunning beauty! 💕💕💕 The one and only Ms. Lea Salonga!
I missed Leas concert here in Hamburg Germany
LEA
CHARICE
ESANG......
SILA YONG MGA SINGERS GUSTO KO DI MASAKIT SA TENGA
DI SUMISIGAW PERO PERFECT ANG PITCH
I like her hair now. So edgy.
I don't like it- buying too much into the "SJW feminist" look.
Lea Salonga has a face 2nd like Julie Vega.
I admire her voice, her discipline in her career. GOD BLESS
When that chance in life comes get hold of it! It's an inborn luck to have such a nice voice.
the journalist so rude to say "why do you lasted so much ? there are so many talented people " the last part is needless to say...
Hope I can be as fluent as Ms Lea. The pace and the accent, how I wish. ;< Just by watching this vid, you can already tell that she has the wit. She thinks first and consider what is on it before she will going to utter it.
Thanks to her classmates that pushed her to go back then.
💖Lea
I love her rendition of this song! she is AMAZING!
i can listen to lea all day...
wow!! this rendition is sooo smooth..
She is always wearing her black jacket in a lot of interviews.
Ms Lea so much love' u are my inspiration on me. Beauty n brain.I love our song I don't love us anymore.
I stan a classy, smart and talented woman like her. Gosh.
I love you Ms. Leah!
Tama Lea they should not change the lyrics of our pambasang awit,Bayang Magiliw,iyon nga iba diyan di man alam katahin ang Bayang Magiliw tapos gusto pang palitan no way ka nga ng ameicano.
It's Lupang Hinirang not Bayang Magiliw.
