American teenage pop star Greyson Chance endeared himself more to his Filipino fans when he turned up wearing a jacket with the Philippine flag pinned on his back at his concert Sunday night, April 22, at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
Although Greyson is said to do the same thing – pinning on his back the flag of each country he goes to in his current tour – his manager, Staci Yamano, told the Philippine Daily Inquirer that the artist considers Asia, particularly the Philippines, special. “He wants to work with local bands because he knows there are a lot of talented musicians here.”
Incidentally, the remixed version of his single, “Waiting Outside the Lines,” features a duet with the United States-based Filipino singer Charice.
At his Big Dome concert, the 14-year-old Greyson was brimming with energy and personified the consummate musician – earnestly reaching out to the audience from all sides of the stage, running and jumping to the beat of his songs, and accompanying himself on the piano on several numbers, including the tune that led to his discovery on YouTube, Lady Gaga’s “Paparazzi.”
