I just love how Waleska is so knowledgeable when it comes to theater. I love listening to her and learning from her.
so true. i 2nd to u👍❤️
Yes! You got it! She's like telling a bed time story that you would want to listen to it.
I hate to differ about being knowledgeable about this show in particular... first, they are appearing in a promo show for the musical, and they are 2 different characters in the musical: Rachelle (the replacement for character Gigi, who appears only in this scene in the entire musical) is NOT a replacement for Lea's character (lead character Kim, present in all the show - Lea's replacement was Eva Noblezada) . Second, you're NOT mentally exhausted at this point, as this song comes in the first 15 minutes of the show.....it's the beginning of what leads you to exhaustion. This is a juxtaposition of a character who'd done this for a long time - Gigi- and a new girl in the bar - Kim - who both have the same dream of leaving that lifestyle. I wish Waleska had done a bit of prep work, but.... she didn't.
Yeah. Some theatre geeks can be annoying like their gatekeeping sometimes hahaha. But waleska is great
Rachel Anne Go is actually playing Gigi and not Kim. But she is still Blessed as she was able to have a duet with miss Lea Salonga. Still they both represent the Philippines internationally and we are so proud to what they have become.
i think the original gigi is monique wilson. childhood friend of lea
Isay Alvarez and Janine Desiderio were the Gigi’s during Lea’s time , for a couple of years .
@@evelynjayme4671 isay alvarez is the original west end cast while marina chapa is the original broadway cast. monique wilson(understudy for the role of kim) is the original west end cast.janine desiderio is not included in both. 2014 west end and 2017 broadway cast for the role gigi was played by rachelle anne go.
Monique Wilson is the understudy of Lea's role: Kim.
MONIQUE IS ALSO A FILIPINA ...
I saw Rachelle preform live as Fantine from Les Mis and it was honestly one of the best performances I’ve ever seen, I couldn’t help but cry
You're very lucky. I'm jealous. 😭😭😭😭
Lea originated the role of Kim in both West End and Broadway. Rachelle Ann was given the role of Gigi in Ms. Saigon's revival, first in West End and later on in Broadway. This duet was a special number in the 25th Anniversary Gala of Miss Saigon, held in London. At the time, Rachelle is the current Gigi.
The reason why the crowd broke out into applause when Rachelle was singing was because at that moment she broke character and decided to do it in a different way from what is canon. You can see that Lea looked proud and was delighted by what Rachelle did. In that instance, Lea broke character as well and reacted in pleasure to what her friend was doing. :)
she did that intentional.
I read somewhere,she was given permission by the songwriter to break form.
It's a gala performance after the real show. A special performance for the 25th anniv where they brought back some of the original cast to perform some songs. It's a 20 min special. Simon Bowman was there too. Lea and him performed Solo Saxophone with the new Kim and Chris - Eva and Alistair. Jonathan Pryce also performed The American Dream with the current Engineer- Jonjon Briones.
The showrunners allowed them to do their own thing since it's like a concert treat for the audience.
Rachelle Ann Go played the role of "Gigi" fabulously that even Lea Salonga from the original cast (25 years ago) was astonished with her vocal capability. Bravo to these world-class artists.
Both Filipino! So much pride to our country!!!
@Phallus Erectus 👍🙂
Lea was like a proud momma to Rachelle here especially when Rachelle belted lol. You can say that Rachelle was sort of Lea's Protege. Lea was the one who encouraged Rachele to audition for Miss Saigon during the Manila casting after watching her play the role of Ariel in the Manila production of Disney's The Little Mermaid. This performance was during the 25th Anniversary Gala Concert that proceeded immediately after the actual show on West End. In one interview, Lea mentioned that they were given the liberty to perform the songs however they wanted so this is not how it is actually performed in the musical. Close but they were allowed to break character.
the Vietnamese girl is not even half of the talent of Lea Salonga.
Ok
@@eduardochavacanothere is no Vietnamese there. Both are Filipinos!
I immediately felt giddy as soon as I saw the thumbnail of the reaction video! Rachelle was known in the early 2000’s as a pop singer and singing mostly Mariah Carey’s. However, when she made the shift to theater, her vocal prowess grew larger and she successfully followed the fame Lea received in West End. Im still hoping I can watch her in Hamilton West End but London is in Tier 3 lockdown!! Ugghhh!
Yes.rachelle ann go really rose to fame as pop star..
I just love how Efra looked at Waleska while watching the video. You know he's a proud brother ❤️
Rachelle lives in London with her husband. She is next most accomplished Broadway and West End performer from the Philippines and also felt to be the one who followed Lea. I think she is playing in the lead in Hamilton.
she played Eliza Schuyler for WestEnd
From what I knew, it was Lea Salonga who really pushed Rachelle Ann Go to audition for the production, cause she believed her talent and that she would make it big in theater. No wonder she's looking like a proud mama to Rachelle. ♥️
I just love how efra touches his waleska's hair like trying to comfort her. Aww what a precious brother. ♥️
btw this performance was for their anniversary :) rachel was playing gigi in the show and lea was the iconic kim. and rachel is also filipina btw! ily guys
They are both representive of the Philippines internationally.... PROUD OF THEM BOTH.. THE PRIDE OF THE PHILS. .. OMG... I really cried first time to see them together. BRAVO BRAVO... AS IF YOUR IN HEAVEN... Luv u luv u for giving the reactions on them...Thank you Thank you... 🥰🥰🥰
Agree, seeing Miss Leah Salonga performed in Miss Saigon is phenomenal. I felt the feelings, so heavy and painful. In the end, still feels happy because of a wonderful performance. For sure, you will be given a chance to see them perform live in Miss Saigon. Stay healthy to both and God bless always.
Cant wait for y'all to see Lea's perfomance of Dont cry for me Argentina, pleaseeeeeee!
Rachelle Ann Go is Already a Singer or an artist on the Philippines. Before she auditions on Miss Saigon Way back at 2016. But The 1st Miss Saigon Is Legendary Disney #LeaSalonga
Ah Rachelle~ We went to the same school until High School and I always remember how her voice would echo across the entire hallway & in between floors every time she practices with our music teacher. Good ol days.
LICSian? She has always been a great vocalist. One of the best Filipino icons! 🧡
*_efra is so good looking. i really love this guy!_*
Efra was right, Rachelle Ann Go played Gigi, not Kim (Lea's role). The Filipina who first played Gigi, alongside Lea, was Isay Alvarez. The impact of their scene singing Movie in My Mind is seeing and hearing the thoughts and emotions of Gigi who's had to battle the world of the bars and prostitution way longer, sort of as a veteran, vis-a-vis Kim who was facing that world for the first time. Hence, it's not actually a scene that's draining...not just yet, as it's the first that starts the emotional debacle. Oh, if memory serves me right, Rachelle played Gigi alongside Eva Noblezada (another of Philippine descent) as Kim and in their run The Engineer was also played by a Filipino, Jon Briones.
Rachelle Ann Go is a contemporary of Sarah Geronimo. She left behind a very good singing career in the Philippines to audition for Miss Saigon. Honestly, I am amazed that she was able to change her style of singing to musicals.
Actually she just became a more versatile singer. Coz when she needs to sing Pop, RnB, Rock or other genres, she can still go back to her original foundation. She is a very versatile vocalist. A powerhouse!
Rachelle Ann Go is the natural successor to Lea Salonga. She does sound very similar. It is so nice to see that there is no rivalry and just pride in being Philipina.
Lea Salonga and Regine Velasquez's Musical Medley will also blow you away. I love how you guys always geek out with techniques and structures of a musical or everything about music.
You two are so wity on how you analyze every detail of the song and the singer.That is why I always anticipate your reactions
Please react to Lea Salonga's On my own (Les Miserables).. :) It's my birthday today. Pls react to it as a gift. Lol. Thank you in advance :) I'm one of your fans. Your reactions are so sincere. Notification squad!!!
the one with the big orchestra right? A must watch if your watching lea~
@@ZennIRM Yes it is!!
Yes yes yes pleaseeee
Happy Birthday!
Lea and Rachelle are really insane when it comes to vocals and stage projection.
Rachelle ann also played Eliza Schuyler in West End Hamilton.
Goosebumps damn! So proud being Filipino.
Agree, bro. Still getting goosebumps whenever I hear these World-class international musical & theater talents like Lea Salonga and Rachelle Ann Go. So proud to be a Filipino!
FINALLY! this performance deserves more reaction videos 😭😭
Aaarrghhhhh LEA SALONGAAA! Okay, just a simple person here. I saw Lea. I clicked. Yieee!
You shouldn't also miss the youtube recording of the duet between Lea and Claire Moore, "I Still Believe", in the original play at the West End. It's so heart-rending as well !
That was the Miss Saigon 25th anniversary concert sometine in 2015 as i remember?...just a trivia,,lea played Ms. Saigon in 1990.
Eva Noblezada which is also a filipina played the role in Ms.Saigon revival in 2014. Rachel Ann played the Role of Gigi in the Revival. You can also watch Rachels duet with Eva in youtube...
Please react Charice Pempengco's rendition of All By Myself and Listen. She is one of the best singers in the Philippines. And now, hes is transgender (now Jake Zyrus)
oh no. forget him. he is an A-hole. she is now a he-man.
@@josephmegrino5149 sorry but they already react to charice and jake and waleska & efra like her & him 😊😊
Rachelle was the best Gigi, according to Cameron Mackintosh... No, Rachelle is not Kim, she played Gigi. She also played Eliza Hamilton on the west end version of Hamilton.
Rachelle Ann Go and Regine Velasquez have Amazing Duet as well. Hope you can react to it.
I love you two Waleska and Efra, i really love the way you react Filipino talents. More power to both of you.
Theatre rules were relaxed on this performance because it was the 25th Anniversary Show of Miss Saigon. It WAS a concert, so to speak. 😊
rachelle anne played the character of gigi, (kim's friend at the bar) wc was also played by another filipina in the original. nobleza(another filipina but raised in the US) played kim who was frist played by lea
Love the feelings that these 2 amazing artists can make you feel. Waleska is so cute and knowledgeable of musicals.
Thank you for the reaction! Lea is the original Miss Saigon. about 17 then They are both icons of the industry- especially Lea but Rachelle is right behind...LOL. Try reacting to Nicole Scherzinger singing Phantom of the Opera as Cristine! with Andrew Lloyd Webber introducing her/them.
I just love u waleska so genuine in reacting and very knowleagable.🥰😘more reaction plzzz to lea salonga.
Happy to see you here Miss Rachelle Ann Go...
Miss her!
Nice...thanks for reacting to this!
More discoveries Guys...👏👏👏
Try lea salonga and isang de torre singing Matilda medley live... another lea in the making... you gonna love it
Rachelle Ann is also a power belter like Katrina, Morissette, Jona, Angeline, Regine, etc.
Yes..but rachelle is evolve on theater superstar. From pop star..shes really amazing...
Such a Perfect reaction. Kudos!
This performance was performed in the theater in 2014. It was the 25th anniversary night of Miss Saigon and after the musical there was this gala with some of the original cast from 1989.
Rachell Ann Go was in the cast of the 25th as Gigi while Lea Salonga was a guest of honor at the Gala. Together they made this wonderful duet.
They hadn't played the same character. Lea in 1989 and for several editions it was Kim while Rachell Gigi
Lea Salonga is known for her good diction. The best!
They are both from the Philippines. Rachel and The Legendary Disney Lea Salonga.
Movie in my mind is a duet by Gigi and Kim characters in Miss Saigon. This was just an Anniversary special after the actual show. They invited the original actors.
Rachelleann Go played the role of Gigi, the leader of Vietnamese girls in the Cabaret, Kim played by Lea as one of those Vietnamese girls in Cabaret. During the time of Lea as Kim another filipina named Isay Alvarez played the role of Gigi. This time with Rachelle as Gigi the role of Kim is another young filipina based in America her name was Eva Noblezada.
So proud filipino pride...rachelle and lea...and to all filipino broadway artist...
Thank you for reacting to this. I’ve been waiting to see Waleska’s reaction. 🙏🏽👏🏽🙏🏽
Rachelle Ann Go was won as pinoy pop super star at her 17 yrs old. And has several album with platinum and numerous awards abroad amd philippines
Been waitin for this! Thanks!
Proud proud
Just class . In a different league . WOW. I've watch this over and over and over
Bravo.. so proud of them as there kabayan.. 👏👏🙌😍
Magnificent revival...especially performed by the legend, Ms. Lea Salonga, the original "Kim" of Miss Saigon, and Rachelle Ann Go who played the character "Gigi" in 2015 in the West End.
Hi. I am a Filipino, and I appreciate every reaction you guys do for our artists. You are right, Filipino singers are works class😘 Thank you.
Thank you for reacting to this video... one of my fav. Thank you both. sending love and kisses from the Philippines.
Rachelle ann Go .,,filipino pride❤❤
I love love love your reaction. I can tell you guys really appreciate these artists talents. Growing up, I really looked up to Lea Salonga. She’s the standard. ❤️❤️❤️
Two of the most amazing singers in the Philippines. Please react to Rachelle ann Go's version of BIG WHITE ROOM. Ty guys for the outstanding reaction.
Miss Saigon was in 1989 West End, 25th Anniversary Gala was in 2014 which was the clip was held and Rachel was Gigi.
The continuation of that clip was Lea sung Last Night of the World with Simon Bowman the original Cris, Eva and Alistair (2014 cast).
Leah salonga the great influence of every Filipino girl singer
Yeyyy! So happy you finally reacted to this ❤️
They did this after one of the shows in West End for the 25th Anniversary of Miss Saigon in 2016, before the show was reopened on Broadway the year after. Rachelle Ann played Gigi in the show alongside Eva Noblezada who played Kim (all of them Filipinos). Rachelle Ann also played Fantine in Les Mis before Saigon and currently, became the first Elizabeth Hamilton on West End. You guys should see her when it reopens hopefully next year. - Thanks for this reaction!
I watched Miss Saigon twice on Broadway. I missed Lea the 1st time and I did see Rachelle Ann Go the 2nd time.
IMO, Lea still the best Kim and Rachelle is the best Gigi.
As a singer, classical/musical theatre discipline is the best way to go if you wanna become a great singer. Techniques are being taught and being able to sing, act and dance all at the same time would make you grow as an artist! If you shift to being a pop star, you easily can do it. While if you started with pop music, not a lot of people are as brilliant as Rachelle Ann to crossover from pop to theatre. I can see how many talented singers that are in line with pop music that we have here in the Philippines but only a few of them have the potentials to be theatre stars but most of our theatrical artists can sing pop easily without breaking a sweat.
I love the exchange of reactions! You guys are really good and I enjoyed watching/listening to you.
Lea is one of Philippine’ treasures. No one has followed her success on Broadway, winning awards from Tony’s to Laurence Olivier’. And the countless theme songs on Disney’s Princesses she performed on stage and on the silver screen. Also breaking barriers as the first Asian stage performer on Broadway and won best actress at the Tony’s. Nobody from the Philippines gained respect in the International scene like Broadway or Hollywood than Lea Salonga. Watch her strong and hair raising performance at the Les Miserables 20th or 25th ( not so sure ) anniversary where she played as Eponine. Wow oh wow! Great reactions and always loving you both. Perfect chemistry, pleasant to hear and so respectful to the performers. Two thumbs up! 👍 👍❤️
The two Filipinos in the same stage..wow..as in wow..👏👏👏👏👏👏
I've been waiting for this
And to Lea singing “A whole new world” after 23 years

Exquisite! What an emotional experience! Thanks a lot Wale & Efra😍
This was an anniversary concert for miss saigon..,i really love the both of you.
I love watching ur reaction guys...ur bro is so sweet & comforting when u literally carried away by their performance ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Bravo to both of them. The wordings of the song are so heavy, yet Lea eloquently played the role with flying colors so too for Rachelle Ann Go. Pls. react to the version of Lea Salonga's " Don't Cry for Me Argentina". Lea is a Philippine Treasure. She is the first Asian Tony Awardee, Sir Laurence Olivier awardee too & many international awards. She is a Broadway Diva & also the Disney Princess. Thanks fr. Manila. Muchas Gracias,
Lea and Rachelle performed the song, Movies In My Mind, originated by Lea in Miss Saigon way back in 1995. Rachelle later assumed the same track and like Lea had a successful Broadway career in the West End in London. It is an understatement to say that both of them are excellent singers.
Yellow love! watching this again.
This song always gives me chills! I was fortunate enough to get to watch the 25th anniversary recorded stage version in cinemas and whew, it was amazing. So good!
They both amazing and fantastic❤️
From what I know Rachelle played "Gigi". One of the bar girls. She even won an award for it. Kim was played by Eva Nobleska in the shows she performed in.
I love them both!Amazing
Miss Saigon is a love story between an American GI and a young Vietnamese women whose family is killed when her family’s village was killed in the war. She goes to the city and ends up in a brothel for tourists and American GI’s. This song takes place when she is working the first night. This is definitely a must watch musical! This performance was done for the anniversary of the Miss Saigon in the UK with cast from throughout the years.
One of my favorite reactions right there..
Rachelle Ann Go played Gigi in the Ms. Saigon revival which had Eva Noblezada as Kim.
Rachelle ann is so GREAT!!!!!
This is the first video of yours that I found, and I'm subbed.
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THISSSSSS!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Its during the anniversary of Miss Saigon. Rachelle played the role of Gigi in the recent version, another Filipina played the role of Kim together with Rachelle, Lea played Kim in the earlier versions.
Wishing and waiting for the day you guest her in your podcast
I LOVE THIS OMYG--
The song is a duet.. It was originally sang by Isay Alvarez and Lea in the theater..😊
YAS
