'Glee' Star Charice Announces Name Change to Jake Zyrus

Singer and Glee alum Charice will be using a new name from now on – Jake Zyrus!

Jake took to social media to share the news, changing handles on Twitter and Instagram to the new name.

“My first tweet as Jake. Overwhelmed. Saw all your love comments and I’m so happy. Finally. I love you, everyone and see you soon,” Jake wrote on Twitter.

Jake added on Instagram, “From the bottom of my heart, thank you for the love and respect. I love you back and I’m sending peace to everyone.”
