Just want to share this story because I am an avid fan of Maria Aragon, originally posted in ph.news.yahoo.com.
At 11 years old, Filipino-Canadian YouTube sensation Maria Aragon fulfilled her dreams far from what she had ever imagined with her cover of Lady Gaga's "Born this Way" on the video sharing site granting her instant fame. But this young up and coming singer has recently achieved yet another dream. She has finally come home to the Philippines to record her very own album.
Maria sat down with Yahoo! Philippines OMG! last Wednesday, July 27 to share her exciting experiences coming home to the Philippines for the first time.
Maria: I arrived on July 21. For now, I've stayed in Manila, just went around. I haven't got to see the whole country yet but I've been to ABS-CBN. I'm here to record an album under Star Records. It's been really fun for the past days. It's not like a job. It's more of a hobby, something that I want to do for the rest of my life and recording has been so much fun. I wanted to do an album, it's always a big dream of mine and I never thought that I'll get here at my age. I'm really blessed to have that.
