Lea Salonga becomes first Filipina honored with Hollywood Walk of Fame star
Broadway legend Lea Salonga makes history as the first Filipina performer to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame outside the Pantages Theatre.
Tony winner Lea Salonga admits she never really thought about getting a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. “Most of my work is in musical theater,” says Salonga, who earned international recognition for originating the role of Kim in “Miss Saigon” in 1989.
