It seems that the UK also has its own version of the America’s Got Talent aptly called Britain’s Got Talent. The Got Talent series is different from the Idol series because the former features all sorts of talents not just singing which is what the latter is better known for.

Now, in the 2008 edition of Britain’s Got Talent two Filipinos (well, the other one is actually half filipino) took center stage and amazed the viewers. They are Madonna Decena and a young boy named Charlie Green.

Madonna Decena left the Philippines to find work in the UK. According to her, she decided to join the contest for her daughters whom she left in the Philippines in the care of their grandparents. Listen to her rendition of Whitney Houston’s I will Always Love.

Charlie Green is a 10-year old British-Filipino who decided to join the contest to fulfill his dream of becoming a great singer. His rendition of Frank Sinatra’s Summer Wind got a standing ovation from the audience.

Filipinos are really talented. Ramiele Malubay showed it at this year’s American Idol and now it’s Madonna Decena and Charlie Green’s turn to once again show the world how talented Filipinos are.
