Regine Velasquez
Regina Encarnacion Ansong Velasquez (born April 22, 1970), nicknamed
Asia's Songbird, is a Filipino singer and actress. Her belting voice is
noted for its vocal range, power, and technical ability. She received
critical acclaim and commercial success for her singing and acting
endeavors.
Following Regine's success in the Asia Pacific Song Festival, a series of records released in the region consolidated her position as one of Asia's top-selling performers, yielding several multi-platinum certifications. Initially marketed as a pop music singer, she later distanced herself from the genre, developing a more sultry and sophisticated image.
Regine Velasquez was the first Filipino to stage a solo concert at the Main Hall of Carnegie Hall, part of Carnegie Hall's centennial-year concert series. Her album Listen Without Prejudice achieved platinum certification in seven countries. In 2000, she performed the country's millennial theme, televised in 55 broadcast networks throughout the world to coincide with midnight in Manila.
Her single, "In Love With You," a duet with Jacky Cheung, topped Channel V and MTV's Asian charts and was a number one hit all over Asia.
Regine Velasquez has collaborated with artists such as Paul Anka, David Hasselhoff, 98 Degrees, Brian McKnight, Mandy Moore, Ronan Keating, Stephen Bishop, Jim Brickman, Peabo Bryson, Jeffrey Osborne, Dave Koz, Lea Salonga, Grasshopper, Coco Lee, and Michel Legrand. (photo source)
