I Believe went on to sell nearly 1 million units across the Asian region. During the same year, Tata also sang the theme song to the Bollywood blockbuster film, Dhoom, whose OST album sold over 800,000 units in India, a phenomenal success for a soundtrack. At 25, this 10-year music veteran has already sold more than 12 million albums and continues to be a symbol of energy and change for the Asian music industry. Now comes Temperature Rising, Tatas 2nd full length English album and the one to help her spread her talent to the world. The album features scorching 1st single El Nin-YO! which hit #1 in all major charts in Thailand upon release. Just back from a hugely successful launch in Japan, Temperature Rising has already shipped 50,000 units and is well on the road to another success in the worlds #2 music market. Listen to the album and Tatas sincerity and belief in her music shines through brightly.

The ultra sexy video for El Nin-YO! is directed by Tom Waller, who made his debut directing Hallmark movie Monk Dawson and has worked on the production of Oliver Stones Alexander. Tata Amita Marie Young was born in Thailand on December 14, 1980, the only daughter of an American father and a Thai mother. In a childhood filled with singing and dancing, Tata beat 5,300 other children to be crowned winner of the International Division of the nationwide Thailand Junior Singing Contest at the tender age of 11. The victory brought her an entertainers contract with Yamaha Music and subsequently a recording contract with Grammy Entertainment, Thailands largest entertainment conglomerate when she was 14. Within a year, Tata recorded and released her debut Thai album Amita Tata Young which sold more than 1 million units in 5 months. At only 15, Tata became Thailands biggest pop sensation, a reputation which was cemented when sales of her follow up album Tata 1,000,000 Copies Celebration also hit the million-unit mark. Tatas popularity grew further when she was chosen to represent Thailand on the Australian Television program World Telly Broadcast featuring Youth talents in Asia. In April 1996, Tata held her Tata Live in Hollywood Concert at the renowned Hollywood Palladium, a rare event for an Asian artist, and one which received rave reviews. Tata was selected by the Chinese government to represent Thailand at the Handover Concert for the Hong Kong Handover Ceremony held on July 5, 1997 along with such international acts as Lisa Stansfield and Wet Wet Wet. That same year, Tata became the first entertainer in 14 years to receive the coveted Golden Pikkanes God Award presented by the Musical Artist Association of Thailand under the patronage of His Majesty the King of Thailand. Trendy, beautiful and vivacious, Tata has also developed a highly successful modeling and acting career. Making her stunning film debut in 1997 in the youth drama The Red Bike Story, Tata not only won the Best Female Actress Award (Thailand) at the 4th Annual Blockbuster Entertainment Awards but also helped the movie break all time attendance records in the film history of Thailand. Tata followed up the huge success with two other celluloid hits O-Negative and Plai Tien. Tata has modeled and endorsed top-notch brands such as Fuji Film and Yamaha motorcycles, Colgate and Pepsi and has been the cover girl many times over on many international media and magazines around the region. In 1997, Elle Magazine named her one of Thailands 10 Most Influential People and Asiaweek selected Tata as one of 25 most influential trendsetters in Asia in 1998. In 2001, Tata was featured on the cover of Time Magazine in their study of successful Eurasians in Asia.___________ Related: tata young ???????? ???? ??? | |

| REGINE VELASQUEZ : A Tribute to Asia's SongbirdFri, 09 Jan 2009 16:53:16 -0800 by AntiBasher2REGINE VELASQUEZ...the SUPREME DIVA of the Philippines,& the one and only ASIA'S SONGBIRD.*********** ******************* ***************She is classified as LYRIC SOPRANO w/ COLORATURA abilities; has 4 OCTAVES; has a SOLID/CRYSTAL-CLEAR/ SKYROCKETI NG/BELTING VOICE, noted for its VOCAL RANGE, POWER & TECHNICAL ABILITY; has her own ORIGINAL FILIPINO/ENGLISH SONGS, achieved MULTI-PLATINUM ALBUMS, became the BIGGEST-SELLING ARTIST, and won major MUSIC AWARDS & RECOGNITIONS in the PHILIPPINES & ASIA. So there's nothing more to prove that REGINE VELASQUEZ is one of the GREATEST voices in the WORLD!REGINE VELASQUEZ is clearly on TOP for NO ONE comes even close to her OUTSTANDING achievements. Did any other Filipino or Asian win FAMAS GOLDEN ARTIST, STAR, KATHA, 3 MTV Pilipinas, 9 ALIW, 11 AWIT, 15 GMMSF including BOX-OFFICE QUEEN, GOLDEN SCREEN, PEOPLE ASIA, ASIAN TV & 2 MTV-ASIA awards??? Well, newsflash...NO ONE. Is there any other Filipino or Asian female artist who achieved 3 MULTI-PLATINUM ALBUMS in ASIA? NO ONE.Fans & detractors already KNOW that Regine has a PHENOMENAL VOICE. We don't have to compare her to other foreign singers because WORLD-CLASS ARTISTS already compared her amazing talent to other divas. MICHEL LEGRAND leveled her to BARBRA STREISAND. PEABO BRYSON commented that she's the only rival to CELINE DION. And BRIAN MCKNIGHT even said that Regine is on TOP-OF-THE-LIST, meaning better than MARIAH CAREY. So what more can we say about our ASIA'S SONGBIRD? Related: regine velasquez asia's songbird barbra streisand celine dion mariah carey whitney houston american idol | |
