“…is the third Filipino solo performer, after pop singer Regine Velasquez and Broadway star Lea Salonga to sing at the famed [Carnegie Hall].”  [via]
Reese wowed Pattie La Belle, Natalie Cole, Earth Wind and Fire,  Jamie Foxx, and Will.I.Am (of the Black Eyed Peas, who boasts Filipino group member APL), when she performed powerful renditions of Classical Broadway and Opera songs to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the famous Beverly Hills Crustacean Restaurant in June 2008.    Oliver Stone, Angela Basset, Magic Johnson, San Fransisco’s Mayor Gavin Newsom, Michael Bolton, and Paris Hilton were also among the crowd who stood to applaud, cheer, and throw flowers at Reese’s feet before she even finished singing.  Patti La Belle was so impressed that she invited Reese to dine with her in the VIP room.  They sang the end of Puccini’s Nessun Dorma together, at La Belle’s request, and brought the crowd to screams and cheers once again.  (Read more about Reese taking Hollywood by storm.)Here is a Reese rendition of the above mentioned aria.  Performed July 4, 2009 at the Fil-Am Friendship Day at Redwing Park Virginia Beach, VA.
