Sultry Filipina singer Cherry Hazel “Sheree” Bautista is an original member of the Viva Hot Babes. Discovered and mentored by fellow Filipina singer Patricia Javier, the 26-year-old singer and FHM Philippines cover girl began her career lounge-singing in her hometown of Cagayan de Oro at 16.

I’m listening to her one-year-old debut album My Sheree Amor as I type this. Her smooth voice is perfect for a mellow evening Web surf. In fact, it’s almost too perfect: looking at her sexy pictures is about the only thing keeping me from dozing off right now. Unless you have a woman as hot as Sheree in the passenger seat nibbling your earlobe, do not listen to this album while driving or operating heavy machinery.

“Believe it or not, I’m not comfortable in sexy clothes.”
Sure. Could’ve fooled me girl. Here’s where to send your love on her birthday, April 20:

Cassie Yukawa and Rosey Chan are two dazzling young piano virtuosi with an eye for the theatrical. Former rivals on the junior competition circuit, the pair first began collaborating in November 2003, shortly after leaving the Royal College of Music where they had both studied with Yonty Solomon. Since then they have burst onto the UK classical music scene with performances at such prestigious venues as London’s South Bank Centre, Wigmore and Steinway Halls. Their repertoire extends from Mozart and Rachmaninov through to John Cage and collaborations with contemporary composers such as Kenneth Hesketh.

Their website could use a re-design, but check out a gallery with some more photo’s.Cassie Yukawa was born in London in 1981 of mixed English and Japanese parentage. She began her musical tuition in Tokyo aged four, subsequently joining the Purcell School of Music with a scholarship in 1995 making her concerto debut playing Saint-Saens‚ Piano Concerto No. 2 aged 14.

Her name in Chinese means “Wears Love” and the Mainland singing and dancing sensation, with the English handle of “Edell,” looks great in it. If she promised to wear this outfit I’d herd sheep with her on Brokeback Mountain.Pop stars in China are moving past the school girl imitations once inspired by Japan and is adopting the sohistication and elegance that has long lived in Taiwan and Hong Kong. Ai Dai is a perfect example of an emerging change in style. She recently released an album entitled “Love Vigilance” and then promptly announced she was heading for an acting career. When asked what kind of roles she wanted to play, Edell said she hoped to act as a female gangster with a kind heart. At 5’5″ and 100 pounds I think she needs a devoted body guard. “Ai Dai,” when you say it out loud, works pretty well as a movie title don’t you think? More pic’s of her here: AI DAI and here: EDELL

Just downloaded a great CD I am now listening to. The music takes old Chinese female singers from old records and remix them with chillout style modern music. It sound like The Orb or Portishead or maybe something in the movie Bladerunner or The Fifth Element! Download here.

Popular Japanese idol Aya Ueto has released her Jpop album, “License”. She started off as a photobook idol, then moved on to bigger things with a role on a TV show. Now she’s back to her singing roots. Check out the video for “Yume no Chikara”, which is one of the more popular songs on her new album. Not really my kind of music, but the video looks cool 😉 Found on Kineda.com

Needless to say Scanlover.com has an extensive gallery of Aya.
