I was searching for new songs to be downloaded for my Bora vacation when I heard Charice’s Fingerprint song playing. Since it’s been a while I havent featured anything about her, I decided to check for updates. You know how I admire Charice and this blog has been a witness and a good follower of her every move. Anyway, Charice is in the cast of Alvin and the Chipmunks 2, a live action-animation production by 20th Century Fox currently shooting in L.A. and slated to be shown in the Philippines in January 2010.
In the scene, Charice represents her school at a singing contest in which she sings the Alicia Keys’ song No One, competing with other contestants that include The Chipmunks. We all know that Alvin and the Chipmunks is a five-time Grammy winning and one-time American Music Award winning animated music group created by Ross Bagdasarian Sr. in 1958. It is composed of three singing animated chipmunks: Alvin, the mischievous trouble-maker who quickly became the star of the group; Simon, the tall, bespectacled intellectual; and Theodore, the chubby, impressionable sweetheart. The trio is managed by their human father and confidant, David Seville, and were named after the executives of their original record label, Liberty Records: Alvin Bennett [the president], Simon Waronker [the founder and owner] and Theodore Keep [the chief engineer].
Since then, the Chipmunks have recorded several albums, one of them consisting of Beatles songs which should be familiar to baby boomers. They have also done TV shows and a few movies, the last having been Alvin and the Chipmunks in 2007 with Justin Long [former boyfriend of Drew Barrymore] as Alvin.
Truly, Charice will be a part of the success of this movie and even though there are still speculations on how big a role she is slated to play, the fact that she is part of a major movie is good enough. More than enough actually.
Here’s another to spice up our day.
