After Charice Pempengco starred with the Glee cast on the opening episode of Glee Season 2, hit TV series in America, another Filipina is coming to the musical.

“Hazel Faith dela Cruz” had her segment filmed on November 11, Friday as she will be seen on the coming episode of Glee.

Hazel won the ETC’s Glee off to Hollywood Promo and is one of less than 10 lucky winners from around the world awarded with an all-expense paid trip to Hollywood with a walk-on role in Glee’s 2nd Season.

The said promo invited everyone to come up with a creative video of why you deserve to win an off to Hollywood prize.

In an interview, this is what Hazel said… “I told my dad I wanted to join but didn’t think I had any chance to win. He encouraged me to go ahead and join. So, I got a camera and recorded myself singing one of my original compositions entitled Can’t Comprehend. That was five days before the deadline. I submitted my video and didn’t expect much.”
Hazel is singing since her childhood and started composing songs when she was 14 years old. She is the daughter of Chay de la Cruz and Rolly Abuya, corporate marketing and events manager of Solar Entertainment, parent company of cable stations ETC and Jack TV, where the hit series is aired.

Hazel’s fellow Filipino Gleeks have more reason now to catch up the coming episodes of Glee.
