      We're so very proud of her...Lea Salonga is a living legend in the Philippines' musical arts. She has paved the way for Asian theater actress/singer land leading roles (as well as supporting roles) in the West End and Broadway musicals and perform world-wide.

      Nope, not all when fame went thru her head.
      Now that she’s aged and losing lead roles to younger and more talented ones, the reality might have hit her that she can’t be on top of her game after all these years.
      She’s not marketable anymore, her name alone doesn’t sell in Broadway as evidenced by the poor reception of the play ALLEGIANCE.
      She can’t carry a stage play anymore just by her name alone.
      She might have been successful in Les Mis because there are more stellar co-stars with her.
      Not even her Tony and Lawrence Olivier could salvage her at the box-office nowadays.
      Pathetic. There’s a saying in the Phil that goes “If you don’t look back to where you came from, you won’t be able to proceed to your destination.”
      Talking about being diplomatic, she can’t even treat some of her fans nicely, come on!
      She sounds so plastic.

Thirty years have passed yet my love of the show and her amazing performance is fresh in my mind. As wonderful a singer and actress she is this interview was a pleasure to watch as she is so well spoken. Bless your heart Lea you made an indelible mark in musical theater. Completely unforgettable.
