Do you think Regine Velasquez can still make it in the USA?

[Vertical Horizon]

ok reality check jud ta ani diri..


in terms of talent, i think she can compete head on with the guys here in the US..

but in reality, she can make it big here in the US if naa lang mu back up niya mga well known producers from the music industry.

Guys, I would agree more on this opinion than to the notion that she has no talent, or not enough talent to make big in the US.

I've seen US artists, and I don't see why Regine can't make it. Perhaps to her being a little unknowledgeable about the language is not a downside to her. She can learn, and she is learning.

Heck, she even sounds great compared to Celine, or Fantasia.
And she performs it live with more colors than lip synching it.

Vertical Horizon : what is Regine's market here in the U.S.? unsa man ang iyang competition?
AGAIN: nag tuo ka nga ang iyang label (AFTER ALL THESE YEARS) wala mo suway ug promote niya diri sa STATES? Kapila naman na siya mo tour diri for the last decade? Has she made it yet?

thanks bai for clarifying.. nweiz, sak2 ka bai i believe jud nga c regine naa juy talent.. she wont get famous sa pinas in the first place if she doesn't have the talent dba?

but again, as ive said.. f naa lang mu back up niya og mga maayong producers then she can make it.. but as of now.. murag imposible ni cya.

I'm no expert here, but given Regine's age, chances of her breaking into the U.S. music scene is getting dimmer each and every day.

here's a list of names dropped on this thread. let's make a simple analysis:

Paris Hilton, Lindsey Lohan, Hillary Duff >> famous names (younger audience)
Alicia Keys, Norah Jones >> talented artists/performers (younger/mature audience)
Clay Aiken, Kelly Clarkson, Fantasia >> american idol fame (younger audience)
Celine Dion, Mariah Carey, Madonna >> legends (mature audience)
Shakira, Selena, Marc Anthony >> latino idol (all of south america/immigrants from these countries)

where does Regine fall into these categories?

You say it as if promoting is done over night. it is not. sometimes it takes years and then some. and i didn't say her management didn't try. they did. but sometimes there are other factors that is in consideration. timing is one of them.you know how racist americans can be. but definitely it has nothing to do with talent. regine has loads of it, and people know that. you don't really need to write songs to make it, a lot of US artists don't pen their own songs.

and besides, she didn't really put her whole effort to it. when she does, she will, by now, residing in the US.

but here's the good news, even if she didn't actually try doing in the US, she made few (but significant) other americans rivet to her. AskMen magazine is one of them. And that's a start. I know, i know, the road is long and winding, but then who said dreams can never be realized?

Well said, well said.

Vertical... wait for what?? wait til she's 50?Â* Why do you think nga wala siya mo hatag sa iyang full effort about being big here?Â* She even made a full effort of smuggling a potential TnT diri sa U.S (pun intended) ... and she doesn't have to make that much effort bai (unless she's being told to do so) ... her people can do that for her.Â* Pero it never happened... and God knows, they tried their best.

I didn't say that promoting can be done overnight... of course not... pero she's been touring here for over a decade.Â* OVER A DECADE BAI ... do you still think she can make it after all these years?? She's already passed her prime bai..

Unsa may timing imong gipasabot?Â* .... sa sobra sa 10 years na wala siya naka timing, nag tuo pa ka nga naa pay paglaom nga maka timing?

That's just FOOL'S HOPE bai ...

naa sab ka punto, just like them, nagdahom sab ko ni regine, pero frustrated lang..........coz right now shes aging, wala na tay mahimo, mao gyud na iya destiny, nga kutob ra siya, pinas, pero at least sa una natawag siyag asia s song bird........lets hope nga sa future, naa na gyud tawn ma mainstream nga pinoy, kanang pure pinoy, a least musician, dili rapper,dili girl band........

naa man unta sa metallica, pero dili pud lagi pure pinoy, naa pud sa banda nga santana, katon si raul, pure gyud to siya nga pinoy ingon ang y 101, pero naa ra pud siya sa background, percussion man siguro to siya........kita man ko live santana sa dvd, bisaya gyud kaayo og nawng si raul, pure gyud siguro to siya pinoy........
