Faith Cuneta, the Asianovela Diva would have front acted for Tom Jones’ concert at the Araneta Coliseum last Sunday. It would have been a dream come true for Faith who started her singing career at the young age of 11 as a Bagong Kampeon winner.
At 27, Faith is the voice behind the theme songs of popular Asian soap operas aired on GMA 7. She has crossed from TV dramas to being major concert promoters’ top choice as special guest to foreign acts. Faith has shared the stage with David Pomeranz, Swing Out Sisters, BoyzIIMen, John Ford Coley, Paul Williams, Dennis Lambert, Rex Smith and Matt Monro Jr.
“I know most of them by their music on the radio but now I get to talk to them in person and even be friends with them on Facebook,” Faith said. “I would really like to extend my gratitude to all the promoters who gave me the opportunity to meet and work with these international performers.”
“When my Dad was still alive, Tom Jones was his favorite singer. He used to say that Tom is like Elvis. I am honored to have been invited by Ovation Productions to perform with him.”

MANILA, Philippines - International singer Charice has been dubbed a "newly crowned pop princess" by the New York Post.
Charice's song "Pyramid" was cited in New York Post's PopWrap's fave five article for March 17.
It identified Charice as a "new little chick...who's mountain-and-valley vocals (that means range, kids) are the only reason you will need to fall in love with her sound."
The article also featured four other songs including Psapp's "Mister Ant," Lady GaGa's "Telephone: an Electrolightz remix," Gin Wigmore's "Don't Stop" and Matisse's "Better Than Her." It added that this week's fave five "will have your bottom uncontrollably shimmying out of your kilt."
In an e-mail sent to abs-cbnNEWS.com, Charice said that she's happy that her talent is being recognized not only by her fellow Filipinos but by a lot of Americans as well.
"I really can't believe po na kasama ko sa iisang topic si Lady Gaga. Super Fan po niya ako. To be crowned as the New Pop Princess it's really a honor for me. Nanginig ako nung nabasa ko. Feeling ko, ang laking responsibilidad kasi po dating Pop Princess si Britney Spears po. Nagpapasalamat po ako hindi lang po sa mga Pinoy na sumusuporta sa akin kundi lahat po ng supporters sa iba't ibang bansa. Mapa-Amerikano man po o kahit ano po, salamat po sa lahat," Charice said.
Charice said she is happy that her single "Pyramid" has been downloaded over a million times despite tough competition from other pop artists.
"Super happy po ako. New York Post is really BIG. And really happy na ako yung napili nila na i-crown as New Pop Princess, although there's a lot of teen artists po talaga dito sa Amerika na magaling po talagang pop singers. I wanna thank them po sa pagpili nila sa akin. And thanks po sa lahat ng nagview ng Pyramid ko, it's finally over 1M views! I can't wait po na makita nila yung official music video. Though wala pa pong exact date. But I'm sure ilalabas na po ito soon. Nakita ko na po kanina and it's really inspirational. I hope magustuhan po nila."
