Carly Rae’s Jepsen catchy tune, “Call Me Maybe” has won her fans from the most unlikely of places. From Justin Bieber to a team of Harvard baseball players, Jepsen really knows how to catch people’s attention.
And now the newest Canadian pop sensation has caught the eye (or should we say ear) 0f one of America’s biggest stars…President Barack Obama! Yes, even the President of the United States was powerless to resist that infectious beat. Check out his cover below and feel free to sing along (it’s ok, we won’t tell…).
This isn’t the first time we’ve seen the President jamming to Jepsen. Thanks to some movie magic, Obama was “spotted” dancing to the tune with presidential hopeful Mitt Romneyback in May. Think Sasha and Malia have something to do with his playlist? Whatever the reason, the President certainly knows a good song when he hears one.
Will it Jessica or Phillip take the American Idol crown?
For Jessica Sanchez and Phillip Phillips, it’s finally over. They have done their best throughout the Season 11 of the singing reality competition "American Idol."
Now, all that the final two contestants have to do are to rely on the votes of their supporters and wait for the verdict during the final show tomorrow -- May 23 in the US (May 24 in the morning in Manila).
Sanchez and Phillips battled it out on performance night on Tuesday (Wednesday morning in Manila) when they had to sing three songs each.

Enchi is a Reggae band from the Philippines. Formed in the summer of 2001 by high school friends who wanted to spread the reggae vibe in the island, Enchi is Dumaguete’s first homegrown reggae artist. The group had its early beginnings in the now-institutionalized “Reggae Wednesday” at Hayahay Treehouse Bar, a charming music joint by the sea. Over the years, the weekly gig has drawn a growing mix of musicians, students, artists, tourists and locals who flock to Hayahay to sing and dance to Enchi’s upbeat and unique brand of music.
Their songs, mostly in Cebuano, and a few in Tagalog, talk about love, friendship, respect for animals, and the laidback island lifestyle in Dumaguete. One of their more popular songs, Istambay, prods the out-of-school youth to keep away from street brawls and espouses peaceful living.
A pioneer in the local reggae scene, Enchi continues to gain a local following not only in Dumaguete but in the neighboring towns and islands in the south. The group has played all over Negros, including Bacolod City and Kabankalan, and in other parts of Visayas like Siquijor, Malapascua, Maasin, and Tacloban City. Enchi’s unique beat has reached the shores of Mindanao as well, including Dapitan, Dipolog, Maranding in Lanao and parts of Misamis Occidental. The group has also been part of the past years’ Bob Marley Festivals and Rasta Claus Concerts in Cebu.
Enchi has played with some of the top OPM artists, including Tropical Depression, Indio I, Junior Kilat, Brownbeat All Stars, Brownman Revival, Peace Pipe, and Hale.
In 2004, Enchi became part of the Island Riddims—a Pinoy compilation by the country’s best reggae and ska acts like Tropical Depression, Peace Pipe, Junior Kilat, Davao-based Gaucho and other reggae artists around the Philippines. The 18-track album includes two of Enchi’s songs: Ngano and Tsinelas, the latter currently being used as soundtrack for national programs on ABS-CBN, GMA, RPN 9 and many more.
The music video of the Tagalog track Lab Stori, Enchi’s first one, has recently been out on MYX, and will soon be getting some airplay as well on MTV and other music programs.
