Sarah G all set for This is 15 me

Sarah Geronimo celebrates 15 years with This Is 15 Me, which will be held at the Araneta Coliseum on April 14. Produced by Viva Live, the concert and events subsidiary of Viva Communications, the concert is one of the major entertainment events of the year. It is a rare show that will showcase Sarah’s myriad talents and her accomplishments as a singer, actress and one of the country’s foremost concert draws these past 15 years.

This Is 15 Me is Sarah’s first arena show in five years. The last one was Perfect 10, held a decade ago. It was the first in showbiz history to be staged at both the Big Dome and the Mall of Asia Arena in two consecutive nights. This Is 15 Me, a one-night-only outing, promises to be even bigger. The show is directed by Paul Basinillo with Teacher Georcelle as dance director and Louie Ocampo as musical director.

Sarah, then only 14 years old and a veteran of singing contests since she was three, won the grand prize at Viva TV’s Star for a

Night talent show in 2003. She was launched to stardom armed with a hit cover of Celine Dion’s To Love

You More and a blockbuster single by Vehnee Saturno titled Forever’s

Not Enough. She would soon have a successful career in music, motion pictures and television, as well as a TV host, product endorser and web star.

Sarah has since then recorded 22 albums. Among these are Sweet Sixteen, Taking Flight, Perfectly Imperfect and The Great Unknown. She appeared in box-office hits like Maybe This Time, A Very Special Love and others. She is a regular in

the Sunday noontime variety show ASAP and was one of the coaches in The Voice Philippines and The Voice Kids Philippines.

Sarah is presently busy filming the musical comedy Miss Granny, which is her follow-up to last year’s I Finally Found Someone. Directed by Joyce Bernal, the motion picture also stars James Reid and Xian Lim. She is also finishing work on her new album, her first after The Great Unknown of three years ago. Her latest single titled Sandata is now available online.
