Chadleen and Her Journey to Successful Musical Career

Chadleen, smiles and inspires the audience @Fun-bansang Selebrasyon

“When you wish upon a star
Makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires
Will come to you…”

LIKE the lyrics of the song of Lea Salonga’s album Small Voice, “When You Wish upon a Star,” Chadleen also wished, dreamed and prayed her heart desires during her early childhood years to become a notable singer. Her vision is to sing, smile and inspire people…

Chadleen Alberth Uy Lacdo-o was born in Cebu and has speaking impairment due to her cleft palate.  Her classmates made fun of her when she sings.  She felt the agony of her parents.  She even wanted to stop studying then.

Napoleon Hill once said: "Man, alone, has the power to transform his thoughts into physical reality; man, alone, can dream and make his dreams come true."

Through fervent prayers, rock solid faith and her singing therapy through Children’s Worship Service as a choir member, miracles came true then for a four-year old faithful child after an operation given by the Operation Smile Philippines and the Marquita-Salimbangon-Yeung Charitable Foundation, Inc. (MSYCFI). Operation Smile is an organization that provides free surgeries to children who have cleft palates.

Her singing milestones started when she joined a nationwide singing competition for children and became one of the finalists of ABS-CBN’s Little Big Star in the big division in Cebu.

She experienced performing live on stage with world’s legendary singer and song writer David Pomeranz in 2009 in his benefit concert tour “In Our Hands”. She made it well in different countries like China, USA, and Vietnam in her tour to promote Operation Smile.
