Chariz Solomon



Sparkle star Chariz Solomon is undeniably one of the best comediennes GMA Network has ever produced.

Chariz was a product of the groundbreaking reality-based artista search 'StarStruck: The Next Level,' which aired from 2006 to 2007.

In her first episode with the YouLOL Original vodcast 'Your Honor,' the Kapuso actress looked back on the day she got booted in the talent search on New Year's Day.

She recalled on Your Honor, “'Yung week na 'yun nawe-weirduhan ako. Si Kuya Perry, panay ang bati niya ,dapat ganiyan kayo sumayaw kagaya kay Chariz, parang wala naman kayo kinain.

“Magaling ako sumayaw, lalo dati. Tapos ako 'yung natanggal, saka unang-una ako natanggal. Parang ano 'yun? Awa na lang? Na kunwari, magaling ka pero kailangan may matanggal e.

“Ito talaga na-prove ko talaga palaban, magaling talaga ako, wow! Nagkaroon ng Avengers, 'yan wild card.”

But fate has other plans for Chariz, and even though she returned to StarStruck as an Avenger, she failed to advance and was eliminated on Chinese New Year.

“Naglaban kami, e, hindi naman siya singer. Ako kumakanta-kanta naman, natanggal si accla, na-elbow ko siya… Nung nakabalik ako, shucks eto na 'yun! Ako ang pinakaunang hindi masyado magandang mananalo sa StarStruck [laughs]. Tapos nakabalik [ako], natanggal ako uli Chinese New Year, parang si Kuya Perry pinagtitripan ako.”

She continued, “Grabe iyak ko, mas grabe na iyak ko. Sabi ko, shucks sobrang malas, kasi parehong New Year. Double dead talaga! Pero tingnan mo naman ako, nasa Your Honor ako ' di ba!”
