Lea salonga won't compete with Charice Pempengco

International singer Lea Salonga turned down the idea to perform "Listen" with international singing sensation Charice.

"Hindi ko yata kaya. Hindi ko yata kakayanin kung 'Listen' kasi ang galing niyang kumanta," Salonga said.

Salonga made the statement in response to a viewer's question if she would be willing to perform "Listen" with Charice.

The question was part of "Showbiz News Ngayon"'s Tanong All U Can segment.

In a previous interview, Salonga shared her admiration for Charice's talent.

She said that she is proud of what Charice and other Filipino artists have achieved for the Philippines.

Salonga also added that she really loves the voice of Charice.

"I love Charice's voice," Salonga said.

A movie comeback

Aside from doing shows here and abroad, Salonga is setting her eyes on making a comeback on the big screen.

Salonga, best known for her role in the international musical hit "Miss Saigon", said that if given the chance, she would still want to do a project with Aga Muhlach.

"Siyempre, Aga, I'm comfortable working with him and gusto ko naman yung ka-edad ako," she said.

Muhlach is Salonga's leading man in "Sana Maulit Muli" in 1995.

It has been reported that they will do a movie together under Star Cinema.

The international singer is also busy with her upcoming musical "Allegiance."

"I'm currently part of a musical that's in development in NYC. It's called 'Allegiance'. I think that there's a hope that it gets to Broadway if not next year, then a year after that," Salonga said.
