Filipino Broadway icon Lea Salonga is thankful that she was able to sing in the Netflix megahit “KPop Demon Hunters.”
www.abs-cbn.comHere’s the latest I can share based on recent reporting:
- Lea Salonga contributed the singing voice for the character Celine in the Netflix animated film K-Pop Demon Hunters, which released in mid-2025 and gained notable attention in the Philippines and among fans of her work .
- The film’s soundtrack and performances, including Salonga’s contribution, helped drive media coverage and boosted visibility for the project on streaming charts and entertainment outlets .
- Salonga spoke publicly about being part of the project, describing it as a thrill to contribute even in a minor role and noting the project’s popularity on Netflix, with interviews highlighting her pride in Filipino representation .
Illustration: The project centers on a girl-group premise where pop idols double as demon hunters, with Salonga’s line-singing serving as a bridge between mentor figures and the young protagonists .
If you’d like, I can summarize specific articles or pull quotes from the interviews you’re most interested in. I can also look for more up-to-date developments if new press drops after May 2026.
