One living proof that stars are born is the stunning and multi-talented Aryana, the newest addition to Universal Records ever-growing roster of world class performers.

Born in the exotic island of Guam , where America 's day begins, Aryana was already singing at the tender age of three. When she was 10 years old, Aryana was already performing in numerous civic and social functions. It was expected that she became the most requested entertainer for the many associations in the Island, including the Filipino Community of Guam, the umbrella of all the organizations in that U.S. territory.

She was already a "veteran" and consummate entertainer when Aryana moved to California and wowed the arts community in Los Angeles , with her voice. Recognized as a gifted student by L.A.U.S.D. she had shared stellar roles in the university's productions of "The Circle of Life" and "Singing In The Rain".

Aryana has already recorded CDs in L.A. Two of her songs were used for the TV hit series, " America 's Next Top Model" hosted by Tyra Banks.

When she came back to Guam and joined the singing competition " Guam 's Shining Star Idol", she emerged as the champion and from then on has been dubbed as "The Pride of Guam".

In the Guam shows of Jaya and Jasmine Trias last year, she was the front act artist. It was a stint with JayR that her current manager, noted choreographer Geleen Eugenio spotted Aryana and was able to convince her to try her luck in the Philippines .

She was about to release her Christmas outing, "Ako Ang Nauna (Bumati Ng Merry Xmas)" with Buko Pie, when she was entered in the Shanghai-Asia Music Festival.

Aryana was the crowd's favorite in the competition participated by 21 Asian

countries. She emerged as the Silver (Second) Prize winner, also bagging the Best Song award for her composers Vehnee Saturno and son.

Barely a year in Pinoy showbiz and as an SOP mainstay, Aryana is GMA network's newest artist. Her initial recording "Bop It", has already been certified platinum. For the same song, she won the SOP Music Award's "Maximum Dance Blast" trophy.

While in the 8th Shanghai Music Festival, Aryana was offered by several

international record companies and show promoters.

Aryana's very excited about the possibility of recording and distributing her CDs in China . Unknown to many, she has Chinese blood running in her musical veins. Her dad, Alex Dominador Bautista Lim is half Pinoy/half Chinese, whose father came from Fujan, in the mainland.

She is interested in one particular offer which will record her in Japan (the world's second largest music market), China and other Asian countries.
