Stell Ajero of SB19 was the opening act at David Foster’s “Hitman” show. Images: X/@AranetaCity, @stellajero_ Stell Ajero of SB19 earned the praise of composer-producer David Foster after performing a rendition of “All By Myself” at the latter’s “Hitman” show, an experience the P-pop artist was grateful for. Ajero was the opening act at Foster’s “Hitman” show in Quezon City on Tuesday, June 18, where he performed Adele’s “All I Ask,” his debut single “Room,” and “Defying Gravity” from the musical “Wicked.
” Also present at the show were Katharine McPhee, Brian McKnight, All-4-One, and Filipino rising stars JV Decena and Joaquin Garcia. But the highlight of Ajero’s appearance was his rendition of “All By Myself” after being called back onstage by Foster. The track was originally performed by singer-songwriter Eric Carmen in 1975, until it became one of the most notable renditions of Dion in 1996.
Dion’s rendition, which was included in her 1996 album “Falling into You,” was produced by Foster. “This song [is made known] by Celine [Dion], she claimed really a lot about this very high note, this impossible note to sing, and she hated me. She made a letter with two pages of how much she hated me that day at the studio,” Foster said of the song.
“But we got the job done after a few tries. Tonight, my friend, Stell, you only had one try.” FULL CIRCLE MOMENT FOR STELL 💙 WATCH: Stell Ajero of SB19 did a rendition of Celine.
