When she was 11 she beat 5,300 other children to be named the winner of the international division of the nationwide Thailand Junior Singing Contest. Her first album, released when she was 15, quickly went to number 1 and sold more than a million copies. Her second album was just as popular and she was named "Entertainer of the Year" (1995) by the Bangkok Press. She has released nearly a dozen albums in her native Thai and two albums in English. Elle Magazine named her one of the 10 most influential people in Thailand. She has sold out concerts all over Asia and continues to be one of the biggest stars in the eastern hemisphere.
