Young general Philip Nadela wows them at Korean TV’s Star King show
Young general Philip Cesar Nadela who is the first Litle Grand Winner of ABS-CBN’s Pinoy Dream Academy was recently in the land of Asian telenovelas, Korea to guest in the top-ranking TV show, Star King.
He was with Amy, who placed 2nd to him in the talent competition.
Philip, all of 8 years old, the son of a local policeman in GenSan City and a teacher came home last year to a hero’s welcome a few days after winning the Grand Title.

Philip and Amy follow the footsteps of Charice Pempengco who was discovered by Americal talk-show host Ellen de Generes when a video of the talented young singer’s performance at Star King landed on YouTube early last year.
Check out then these Philip Nadela videos below, and that of Amy while they perform their numbers at Korea’s Star King TV show and in the process, mesmere the visibly appreciative Koreans in the audience. Here is a low-quality video of all of Philip Nadela’s performances. The audio is good though.
Now here is the High Quality but longer 2-part YouTube video of the uncut performances of both Philip and Amy. The first one shows Amy singing “And I Am Telling You” from DreamGirls and Philip doing his signature song “Diana” plus Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” and “Ben“.
This is the 2nd part showing Philip and Amy doing a duet with “How Could You Say You Love Me“.
Now, the only thing to do is to wait and hope that Oprah or Ellen or Jimmy Kennel or David Lettermen discover any of these Philipp Nadela video performances in Korea’s Star King and maybe, just maybe, invite him to perform for them in their highly rated TV shows.

Oh my, Philip and Amy are so cute! And Philip’s hairstyle is even sageuk-style. He looks like somebody fresh out of Korean sageuk drama.

@Manoy Avel, nganong dili man si Philip ang nikanta sa May Bukas Pa theme? Asa kaha sya ginatago sa Eh-be-Es Se-be-En? Rare kaayo ang iyahang guesting maski sa ASAP ba. Dili pa gyud nabalita sa TV Patrol kining guesting nya sa Star King.
Kyut ged si Philip unlike Amy na mukhang tyanak. Ajejeje
BTW, wrong ispeling ang LITLE og MESMERE nimo. Ajejeje.

Hindi lamang si Pacman ang gumagawa ng pangalan for General Santos. Patunay lng din na ang mga Generals ay marunong rin makipagsabayan nationally and internationally. GO PHILIP!!~
