Madonna Decena: British Pinay Singing Sensation

After Charisse Pempengco, another Pinay singer in the person of Madonna Decena is making very very good in Britain’s Got Talent 2008 talent search. Madonna Decena’s Youtube video performance is truly impressive making her the new Pinay singing sensation abroad.

Madonna Decena could win the Britain’s Got Talent 2008 competition. Though many pinoys and pinays were saddened by Ramielle Malubay’s elimination from American Idol 2008 Season 7, the Filipino music fans are once again hopeful that in Madonna Decena, the Philippine flag will finally fly high (again). And this time, it could be in Great Britain.

Also, according to the Youtube website:

“Madonna Decena blows the judges and audience away on Britains Got Talent 2008 with a breathtaking performance of this famous Whitney Houston song..Britains Got Talent 2008.

But this 33 year-old from the Philippines lived up to her billing, as she wowed the judges and audience with her powerful performance and heart-felt story.

Trembling and a little unsure of herself, Madonna Decena walked onto the stage and told everyone her reason for being there.

Six months ago she flew out to Britain in the hope of creating a better life for herself and two young daughters. Agonisingly she had to leave her precious children behind with their grandparents in the Philippines, until she had raised enough money to send for them.

Madonna Decena’s rendition of I Will Always Love You brought a collective lump to the auditorium’s throat.

“I know you were singing that song for your babies” said a tearful Amanda.

This audition was no Holiday for Madonna, it was potentially life-changing, and when the panel told her she had made it to the next round… it was as if all her dreams had been answered, just Like A Prayer.”

Now, who says, Madonna Decena can’t whoop arse with her performance? I predict she’s going to make it big in showbiz. She has some celebrity qualities and given the right break, she might even be the next big singing star in Hollywood. Well, I’ll keep my fingers crossed that Madonna Decena can be just that - a celebrity. I also hope someday we can hear her voice in MP3’s, cellphone ringtones ready for downloads, radios and TV shows. Having Madonna Decena’s singing in my cellphone as ringtone would be great. The music industry could be where she truly belongs.
