*apir* parehas tayo! :) one of my favorite single of hers is also 'losin''. :) ang ganda rin niya sa PV nun.
grabe, bibilhin ko talaga yung Celion Dion tribute album. ang ganda nung rendition nia ng My Heart Will Go On :)
I heard that she is also friends with other singers of Japanese-foreign descent like Angela Aki. ^_^
yup :) magkaklase sila ni Angela Aki sa Japanese school dun sa US :)
Marunong ba siya mag-Japanese? Bakit sa Nana, puro English ang sinasabi niya? Kung ganun, mas magaling pa pala magNihongo si Leah Dizon
yup, she can speak japanese :) american born kasi at medyo dun na siya lumaki kaya ma-English xa :)
Birthday pala ni Yuna Ito nung Sep. 20, kaya Hama Berdey!!
