MANILA, Philippines - Due to insistent clamor among the Filipino Lovatics, Wilbros Live is bringing back 12-time Teen Choice Awardee Demi Lovato (photo) to Manila for a one-night-only show on April 30, 8 p.m. at the Mall of Asia (MOA) Arena. Lovato’s career boasts of multiplatinum hits, sold-out shows, blockbuster movies, highest rating TV programs, thus solidifying her position as one of the most successful young female performers of all time. Her second visit to Manila just proves how devoted her fans are to her. News of her second visit inevitably drew so much excitement that it trended worldwide on Twitter, a few minutes after the initial announcement.
Demi first debuted in Barney & Friends as a child, and was catapulted to prominence because of her role as Mitchie Torres in Disney Channel’s television film, Camp Rock, acting alongside the rock sibling band Jonas Brothers. Following her rise to fame was a recording deal with Hollywood Records which birthed the very auspicious debut album titled Don’t Forget featuring numerous chart-busting singles that have endeared Demi all the more to her fans.
In 2008, Demi went on tour with the Jonas Brothers. The tour billed as Burning Up Tour served as a promotional avenue wherein Demi was able to massively hype her album. The tour was deemed rather appropriate and timely since most of the songs in the album were co-written by the Jonas Brothers themselves.
Demi released her third album in 2011, which illustrated and fortified her R&B side. The carrier single, Skyscraper, speaks of highly self-worth. It conveys a very relevant message to young girls her age. The heartfelt ballad eventually became an anthem.
