Blind Girl With Incredible Voice Nails Beyonce Hit

A blind Filipino woman - who does not speak a word of English - has been filmed nailing a Beyonce hit. Elsie Atig Balawing, who is in her mid-20s, hails from a small fishing village in the southeast Asian country. And despite not being able to converse in English, the handicapped singer has still learned the words to Beyonce’s smash hit ‘Listen’. Her incredible voice has made her a huge online star in her home country - and put her tiny village on the map. According to reports in the Philippines, Balawing has never attended school, but she has refused to let her upbringing and blindness prevent her from chasing her dreams. She has learned to mimic the singing styles of A-list celebs such as Ed Sheehan, Beyonce and Whitney Houston - with huge success. Her success has seen her now get a manager, who is trying to help her get recognised internationally.
