Update (as of September 17, 2008): Howie D will be arriving to Manila on September 23, 2008 to help Sarah launched her album "Just Me... Sarah." For more info go to post # 7.

After the successful concert in Canada and US, Philippine's Sarah Geronimo will be staying in LA to do the recording for a duet with Backstreet Boys Howie D. The song, produced by Christian de Walden entitled "I'll Be There", will be included in Sarah's CD that will be release in July.

Howie D is set to visit the Philippines in July to do the video with Sarah and also to promote the song.

wow! this is great news. its nice seeing news like this, sarah is my favorite teen idol (phil). this is another success for her career. im looking forward to hear news about howie d's visit here in the phil.

Wow! This is great news! Yay! Go Sarah! Filipinos are conquering Hollywood! lol... First Charice Pempengco, then Arnel Pineda joins Journey, and now Sarah with Howie D.

... but I wonder if it'll have international release like be included in Howie's album or will it just be incuded in Sarah's coz it'll be more awesome if it's included in an a global release... and I hope more oppurtunities for international successess for Filipino artists... not just with the Filipino communities but with other communities throughout the globe!

This is good news 'cause I like her, although I'm not a big fan.
I wish that these Pinoy artists will have a long-staying career in Hollywood...and that more will follow the success of Lea Salonga, Arnel Pineda, etc. 'cause there ain't not much Asian artists that were that successful in Hollywood music scene.

Sarah's album "Just Me... Sarah" was just released last September 12 and I'm currently listening to it now... I don't dig some of the songs but I like her song with Howie D

wow ang galing.. omg sarah is one of my admired singers in phils ^^ ganabatte!!!

Howie D coming for Sarah's CD launch

Yes, Howie D of Backstreet Boys (BSB) will arrive in Manila on Sept. 23 to help Sarah Geronimo promote her latest album Just Me. Howie recorded a duet with the local Pop Princess for the CD a few months ago in the US. Titled I’ll Be There, the new original song is the carrier single of the album which was produced by Christian de Walden.

“I feel honored,” Sarah told Funfare. “Sikat na sikat kasi siya. I used to just listen to the Backstreet Boys and watch them but now, ay, ka-duet ko na si Howie D. Exciting!,” added Sarah who will soon shoot the music video of I’ll Be There.

Howie D will join Sarah in a special appearance on A.S.A.P. ‘08 on ABS-CBN, followed by a special performance at the Music Hall of Mall of Asia where they will also greet fans and sign autographs. Howie will also appear in MYX with Sarah as Celebrity VJ’s for October.

Howie D reached worldwide fame as a member of the BSB along with AJ McLean, Brian Littrell, Kevin Richardson and Nick Carter. He is best known for his falsetto singing which is easily recognizable in hits like I Want It That Way, Drowning, The Answer to Our Life, The Perfect Fan and Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely. He is the lead singer in the songs Spanish Eyes, What Makes You Different Makes You Beautiful and How Did I Fall in Love with You.

Meanwhile, the release of Just Me is another feather in the already much-decorated cap of Sarah’s. The CD comes on the heels of the success of A Very Special Love, Sarah’s Star Cinema movie with John Lloyd Cruz, which is one of the year’s biggest box-office hits.
