Charice This 19-year-old Filipina sensation has some pretty serious pipes, and her big voice impressed Oprah so much that when she was on her show the host described the singer as \"a force to be reckoned with. That voice comes from something bigger than yourself.\" Charice’s star is doing nothing but rising. She found fame when a video of her singing on YouTube went viral; her catchy tune from last spring, Pyramid, went straight to number one on the Billboard Dance Charts and she guest-starred on Glee as an exchange student called Sunshine Corazon. And guess what? We think her voice was stronger than Lea Michele’s. She’s passing through to promote her second album, Infinity, which has some great singles – songs like Lost The Best Thing are catchy power ballads of the highest order. Charice impressed fans when she came to Dubai in 2010, and she was due to come back last October, but the concert was cancelled after her estranged father was tragically killed in south Manila. David Guetta The French powerhouse was voted DJ Mag’s DJ of the Year in 2011, and in the past few years he’s worked with A-list musicians like Nicki Minaj, Usher, Flo Rida and Kelly Rowland. As such, he is widely credited as the man who made dance music popular in the mainstream. The Yas Island venue is perfect for those who live in the capital, but if you don’t, fear not, as most hotels on the island offer great deals for a show and stay. Stay at Centro Yas Island, with a free breakfast, and a general admission ticket for just Dh550 per person, or get two tickets for Dh750 and a room for two. Feeling flush? Pay from Dh750-Dh1,050 for VIP entry and a stay. See www.yasisland.ae for more. While David was first noticed globally with addictive tune Just A Little More in 2001 (which is actually one of our faves, we defy you to listen to it without popping a shoulder), and rose to further prominence with epic anthem, When Love Takes Over feat. Kelly Rowland in 2009, he’s been impressing people with his skills on the decks for over two decades in his hometown of Paris. The man is a master of his trade, there’s no denying it.
