PINK PEPPER
A night with Carmen and Gary
Gary and Carmen
I was one of those fortunate souls who witnessed a famous songbird like Carmen Pateña when she performed with comedian Gary Lising at Hotel del Rio during one weekend.
Every one was mesmertized when Carmen sang. Her voice and singing style are just heavenly. Some of the songs she belted out were "New York New York," "Don't Cry For Me Argentina," "Matud Nila" and "Sana'y Wala Nang Wakas." She also sang with Aris Demavivas in a soulful song "Unforgettable."
Carmen is part of the Golden Divas, along with Pilita Corales and Carmen Soriano. The trio is due for shows in the United States.
I wondered how she's able to maintain a good figure and a youthful face. Truly, diamonds are forever.
