Part six:My favorite star from the Voice of the world.
The voice of the worldYaobeina ,also named Bella, was born in September 26, 1981. When she was very young, she showed great interest in singing, and with the help of her parents, she made great progress and started out performing at the age of ten. Her voice was clean and beautiful , and she had the distinction of owning the most beautiful high pitch voice.
Because of this ,she made some achievements in music. She won the championship in the 13th CCTV singing contest for youth. Later, She sang the theme song of the famous Tv play –the Empiresses in the Palace and her other songs became hits on the charts. She became really well-known when she participated in the singing competition program – the Voice of China.
She sang songs not only with her beautiful voice, but with her soul to reflect her feelings, since she was still suffering from cancer. Unfortunately, she died of cancer just five months ago, after which she donated her corneas(眼角膜 ) . She has left us not only beautiful voice but also unselfish love.
