Sherina

The fate of childhood stars is often an all too predictable one but in the case of Sherina, the exception may prove the new rule. This pint-sized singing sensation found stardom in her 2001 film "Sherina's Adventure," which, at 10 years old, turned her into a household name. Now, at 16, she is taking her music from orchestral arrangements to heartfelt pop songs dealing with such teen themes as loneliness and love. Her 2007 release has earned her a new following of young Indonesians that are also dealing with the growing pains, and pleasures, that accompany every teenager's coming of age.
