Lea Salonga has this to say about the lack of Filipino representation in the hit US TV series 'Grey's Anatomy.'

Broadway superstar and Pinoy pride Lea Salonga took to Twitter to express her views about the lack of Filipino characters in the American TV series Grey's Anatomy.

Recently, the show added a new character Dr. Nico Kim, the first openly gay surgeon in the show.

Dr. Kim is played by hottie actor Alex Landi who is half-Korean and half-Italian.

Lea tweeted, “I shall celebrate Alex Landi's inclusion, but can't really take any TV hospital show seriously unless there's a cache of Filipino nurses on staff. I mean, come on.”
