After Kent Avenido, Darren Criss and Charice, another star with Filipino roots has joined the cast of popular musical television series "Glee."
Tamlyn Tomita, a Hollywood actress born and raised by a half-Filipino mother, was introduced in the series as the mother of Asian glee club member Mike Chang, which is portrayed by Harry Shum Jr.
"This season has been great, I think, for everybody. Not just for my character, but for a lot of the characters. And I think that's really interesting to see. You're gonna watch a big plateful of things happening," said Shum, a Chinese-American actor.
Fil-Am Criss portrays the character of Blaine Anderson, while Avenido plays the role of Howard Bamboo.
Charice, meanwhile, appeared a number of times in the second season of "Glee" as Sunshine Corazon, a Filipino exchange student.
