She also loves to write stories and songs. Megia started singing at the age of four and wherever she'd go, she'd get up on a table to sing and dance with a spoon as a pretend microphone. At age six, she wrote her very first song, dedicated to her teddy bear. From then on, she's been invited by friends and family to perform for birthday parties and many other occasions. Megia's biggest inspirations are her parents, her siblings and the rest of her family.

Thia Megia Live In Manila


MANILA, Philippines - The top 11 finalists of American Idol (AI) Season 10, including Fil-Am Thia Megia, will stage a concert at the Araneta Coliseum on September 20 at 8 p.m.

The news was confirmed to Ricky Lo's Funfare by ETC, Jack TV channels and Ovation Productions, which are behind the one-night concert.

The show is the first Asian concert of finalists, Casey Abrams, Haley Reinhart, Jacob Lusk, James Durbin, Lauren Alaina, Naima Adedapo, Paul McDonald, Pia Toscano, Stefano Langone and grand winner Scotty McCreery.

Normally, only the top 10 finalists of the season go on tour.

However, AI judges Randy Jackson, Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez were able to use their “save” power during the season. As a result, Abrams will be able to join the rest of the team.

The finalists are expected to wow their Filipino fans by performing musical genres such as country, pop, jazz and rock.

Thia Megia makes 'Idol' Top 10 cut


Charice Pempengco is not the only celebrity rallying behind Filipino-American Thia Megia’s “American Idol” cause. Judges and voice coaches of the most popular talent search on TV have also raved about the 15-year-old’s belting ability.

And America agreed when Megia made it to this season’s Top 10 on March 4 (Manila time).

Megia joins fellow finalists Scotty McCreery, Pia Toscano, Lauren Alaina, Karen Rodriguez, Jacob Lusk, Casey Abrams, Paul McDonald, Haley Reinhart, and James Durbin. Wild card candidates (Stefano Langone, Ashthon Jone and Naima Adedapo) also join the top 10. This meant 11 out of the 24 semi-finalists were sent home Friday.

“The kid is amazing. She’s 15. She’s so beyond her years musically, it’s insane. This is the first year we’ve had 15-year-olds on the show – I’d like to see her do well because of that,” Michael Orland told HollywoodLife.com in an interview. The entertainment site caught up with the Top 24 semi-finalist from Mountain House, Calif. during “Idol Prom” event in Hollywood a few days ago.

Season 10 judge Randy Jackson also strapped Mejia with good reviews after her rendition of “Out Here On My Own” March 3 when he likened her vocal quality to that of Michael Jackson’s.

“It’s been said and it is definitely true that the mark of a great singer… is the quality of the tone of the voice…. [and] your tone when we first heard you reminded me so much of the late great Michael Jackson,” he declared.

Jackson also called the performance, “Infectious... It doesn’t matter what age you are. This is what hot singing is about!” Jackson added.

Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez joined the Megia fan club when the Aerosmith front man raved: “Sometimes a person’s pitch can be so perfect it doesn’t matter what song they sing. And you just did that. I can’t believe you’re 15! Although we [chose] so many people that are so good it’s gonna be hard for the American public to pick but [Megia made] it easy for [me].”

Lopez meanwhile called the entire performance beautiful. “It was just so beautiful. It’s such a quiet moment in the middle of all these very big performances to come out there, stand still, sing with no music in the beginning and just captivate every single person in this room was really, really special.”

Fortunately for Megia, Charice has been publicly cheering the young Filipina up via social networking portals.

“So proud of my friend, Thia being on ‘American Idol.’ Goodluck to you, young lady and see you here in Hollywood! Miss u,” tweeted Charice recently.

Speaking of Charice, she told HollywoodLife.com that she will be back for four more “Glee” stints in the serial’s current season. Not five, six or seven as previously reported.

“I’m doing ‘Glee,’ of course. I’m on for four more episodes, which is exciting,” she told HollywoodLife.com during the annual Woman’s Day Red Dress Awards in NYC’s Lincoln Center.

As Sunshine Corazon, Charice hopes she will be able to unleash the diva inside her gleek character. “People think my role is kind of a nerdy one, so I think it would be fun for Sunshine to do something to transform herself and do like BeyoncĂ©’s ‘Crazy In Love.’ Like a diva, and come out and be like, Wow!”

Apart from “Glee,” Charice disclosed other undertakings to the entertainment site. “I have a new single coming out and lots more projects. But I can’t really talk about them because I will get in trouble.”
