Christian Bautista is a Filipino singer, actor and a Bench model. He was a finalist of the Philippine reality show Star in a Million shown on ABS-CBN2.
Christian Bautista, Asia’s Pop Idol
Christian Bautista is a multi-awarded recording artist and singing sensation in the Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore.
First thrust in the spotlight as ABS-CBN’s Star In A Million’s most popular non-winner, his future was sealed soon after with a recording contract with hit-making label Warner Music Philippines. The partnership produced the mammoth hit “The Way You Look At Me,” and life was never the same again for the 25-year old Landscape Architecture graduate from the University of the Philippines-Diliman. Christian’s self-titled album, which carried his first hit song reached Multi-Platinum status in the Philippines, and Indonesia.
Christian’s international success began with “The Way You Look At Me,” getting frequent airplay in Indonesian radio stations. The song became an instant hit among the country’s young music lovers, even if they had yet to see the artist behind the ballad.
The song, penned by American composers Andrew Fromm and Keith Follese, became so popular that record label Warner Indonesia decided to bring Christian there—to the great delight of the fans whose support for the Filipino singer has been steadily growing and even spreading to neighboring countries!
“Completely,” Christian Bautista’s much awaited sophomore album, received a Gold Record Award, on its first week of release in the Philippines. The album spawned hit songs “Everything You Do,” “Invincible,” and “She Could Be.” The album has already reached Platinum mark in the Philippines, and Indonesia.
A special edition of the album “Completely,” which combines Christian’s English songs from his debut and sophomore albums, was recently launched in Singapore. His signature monster hit single “The Way You Look Me” also hit the no. 1 spot in popular radio stations in the Lion City.
In the first quarter of 2006, Indonesia’s largest TV station, RCTI, airs “Completely—Christian Bautista,” the young balladeer’s first-ever Indonesian TV special. Christian performed with the biggest names in the Indonesian music scene—the famous 40-piece Magenta Orchestra, the young musical genius Andi Rianto, and the country’s two female divas, Krisdayanti and Titi D.J.
Banking on his massive following among young fans in Indonesia, Christian has been tapped by San Miguel Corporation (SMC) to endorse its new line of soft beverage products in the Asian region, starting with Indonesia. Christian also endorses a new mobile content provider based in Jakarta called Star SMS, and soon for Oishi food products in the Philippines, and Indonesia.
Locally, he has been the face for Bench clothing and body spray, St. Augustine School of Nursing, Smart telecommunications, Trumpets Musicademy, Bed Head products, Skechers, and Swatch watches.
Christian debuts as an actor on the big screen in Regal Entertainment’s 2006 Metro Manila Film Festival entry “Mano Po 5: Gua Ai Di.” In this film directed by Joel Lamangan and written by Abi Lam-Parayno, Dode Cruz and Andrew Paredes, Christian plays Timothy a.k.a. Felix Yan, an Asian pop star, providing support to the bankable love team of Angel Locsin and Richard Gutierrez. His ditty from his sophomore album, “My Heart Has A Mind of Its Own,” is used as the film’s theme song.
More recently, Christian released his third major album “Just A Love Song…Christian Bautista Live! ” also under the Warner Music Philippines label. The album currently occupies higher echelon in retail charts nationwide.
He launched a 4-city tour in Indonesia on Jan. 26-Feb. 2, 2007. The tour included visits in Jakarta, Makasarp, Surabaya, and Bandung.
ABS CBN will also mount a Valentine’s show with real-life girlfriend and singer Rachelle Ann Go in February 13, 2007 at the Aliw Theater entitled You & Me with Yeng Constantino and RJ Jimenez. He and Go also sang the Filipino version of the theme of the Korean series "Princess Hours".
Apart from appearing in various live concerts all over Asia, the Middle East, and the US, Christian is a regular performer on ABS-CBN’s Sunday noontime show, “ASAP,” as part of the “Champions” group. He is managed by STAGES in the Philippines: (632) 818-1111 loc. 225, stages_pr@i-manila.com.ph.
Personal life
Christian Bautista studied at the University of the Philippines in Diliman and took up Landscape Architecture, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts degree in the aforementioned course. He was also a Table Tennis varsity player during college before focusing on singing and going into showbiz.
Christian Bautista admitted on an entertainment show called 'The Buzz' that he is currently dating fellow musician Rachelle Ann Go. He courted her for about two years and finally made their relationship public in 2006.
Fellow artists in the show business have revealed that the balladeer is indeed their crush including Mariel Rodriguez Bea Alonzo and Jeli Mateo among others.
