Filipina singer Angeli Flores was picked by FarWest Entertainment to become part of the 1st Pan-Asian girl group Blush.
As part of Blush, Flores will be performing alongside Victoria Chan (China), Alisha Budhrani (India), Natsuko Danjo (Japan) and Ji-Hae Lee (Korea).
Lea Salonga, who was among the judges in the search dubbed “Project Lotus,” deem the newly-formed group “exciting” and the possibilities for it “endless.”
“I don’t believe that a Pan-Asian girl group has ever been formed. (The Wonder Girls and 2NE1 are both Korean.) There is such diversity in the group that was formed, not only in their features, but also in their personalities,” Lea said.
“There will be someone and something that their fans can relate to. There’s a glamor gal, a tomboy, a diva. One is classically beautiful, another exotic and mysterious. And they all have great vocal strength.”
The search began a few months ago, with judges and coaches traveling all over Asia searching for the perfect candidates.
This is Flores’ second stab at fame. In 2005, she released an album under Viva Records dubbed, “Sabi Mo Lang Pala.” She last made noise as part of “Philippine Idol” a few years ago.
