She is finally arrived! Philippines' very own Charice, finally made her debut appearance as Sunshine Corazon, a Filipino exchange student who will be the "frenemy" (friend-enemy) of the show's lead character Rachel Berry, in the pilot episode of the second season of hit comedy-musical series GLEE, which was aired today, September 22.
Charice is one of the three new cast members introduced on the Audition episode - the others were Chord Overstreet (as Sam Evan) and Dot-Marie Jones (as football coach Shannon Beastie).
Charice first appeared on the show while the members of the McKinley High School's glee club, New Directions, performed their version of Jay-Z and Alicia Key's "Empire State of Mind" to attract new recruits.
Then, Rachel approached Sunshine who was wearing a pair of nerdy eyeglasses, a red blouse under a vest and denim short while carrying a Hello Kitty backpack in the ladies room to encourage her to join the glee club. However, when she heard Sunshine sing Lady Gaga and Beyonce's "Telephone," Rachel immediately recognized her as competition.
Later on, Rachel was convinced by fellow glee club members Mercedes Jones (Amber Riley) and Kurt Hummel (Chris Colfer) that they need a new member who can help them beat rival group Vocal Adrenalin. But Rachel gave a fake address to the young foreign exchange student leading her to a crack house where, Sunshine said, "they stole my sheet music and used it as a toilet paper."
When Coach William Schuester (Matthew Morrison) found out about it, he made Rachel realize that they need Sunshine in the group. So, Rachel finally invited Sunshine to a real audition.
At the auditorium, Charice made every New Directions members' jaw drop while singing Beyonce's "Listen" from the Broadway play and movie Dreamgirls.
Unfortunately, the New Directions was too late. Charice was recruited by rival group Vocal Adrenalin.
