Pinoy Rockstar

Any of you guys into Rockstar: INXS? Well it's the reason why some of us here have been kept up some nights just to catch the replays on Star World every Wednesday and Thursday. Just in case you haven't been tuning in, the reality show is a search for a new vocalist for Aussie band INXS. Fifteen contestants were chosen from the all over the world to come to Los Angeles and see if they have what it takes to be the new INXS frontman--or woman.

The coolest thing about the show is that they have a Pinoy contestant in the running. MiG Ayesa was just two years old when his family migrated to Australia where he first began dabbling in music and theater. MiG would eventually end up performing in We Will Rock You, the musical about rock group Queen in London's West End before he decided to try out for Rockstar: INXS.

Chalk got a chance to talk to MiG this week and he answered some of our questions. Oh, he also mentioned that he might coming over to the Philippines after the contest is over whatever the outcome may be.

Go MiG! We'll be voting for you.
