Back in 2010, singer and actor Charice was the brightest young starlet to come out of the Philippines, with a starring role in Glee and a US top 10 album.
Flash forward seven years and Charice is no more. Having undergone a drastic and very public transformation over the past few years, Charice has this week unveiled his new name: Jake Zyrus.
It's been a dramatic turn of events for the singer once described by Oprah Winfrey as "the most talented girl in the world."
First discovered as a teen in 2007, Charice turned YouTube buzz into worldwide fame, appearing on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and singing a stunning Celine Dion cover on The Oprah Winfrey Show that drew praise from even the singer herself.
