Along with 15 time Grammy award winning songwriter and producer David Foster, Charice will unveil songs from her debut album and give fans an exclusive inside look at the inspiration behind her music and career.
This is the first time in QVC history that a new artist will be featured on the day of their debut release.
"We are thrilled to have Charice debuting her new album on QVC," said Rob Ellerstein, director of merchandising. "As one of the most highly-anticipated releases this year, Charice's appearance promises to be one that fans won’t want to miss."

For even more reasons to celebrate, Charice's first single, the anthemic love song "Pyramid" featuring Iyaz, is the No. 1 song this week on the Billboard Dance Charts, and her single is currently being played on over 100 radio stations across the U.S.
"I feel very blessed to have people like David Foster, Oprah Winfrey, my Reprise family and the QVC people believe in me...I know the week of May 10th will be a week I will remember for the rest of my life," said Charice.
Charice, who has already racked up more than 13 million views on YouTube, began her singing career at age four when her mother discovered her singing on a table and went on to perform in several singing contests in Southeast Asia. One of her many fans ("Chasters") put one of her performances on YouTube and a star was born.
She first appeared in the US on The Ellen Show on and then came to the attention of "Hit Man" David Foster, who signed her to his 143/Reprise Records.
In 2009, Charice revisited the Oprah Show to perform the Diane Warren-written and David Foster-produced "Note to God". In the weeks that followed, the Foster-produced track sold 110,000 total downloads.
Fans can order the deluxe version of her album with four bonus tracks on QVC.com.
The album is currently streaming on her widget:
