Profile of Miguel Ayesa on Famous Like Me

Miguel 'Mig' Ayesa (born January 12, 1970) is an Australian rock vocalist of Filipino origin. Local sources say his full name is Miguel Alfonso Ramón Legarda Ayesa.

Born in Manila, Philippines and raised in Sydney, Australia. Ayesa was studying communications at Macquarie University in Sydney when he was offered the role of Ritchie Valens in the theater production of "Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story." He decided to put his studies on hold and went on tour with the production all across Australia.

Ayesa has since performed in theaters, commercials, television series and Films. He has also been a part of several bands Randy Badass And The Slickmaster Five, Lovetown, The Honkies and The Riva Band. Many young Australians may remember him from his role of the money-grubbing landlord in the kids television show The Ferals on the ABC.

Ayesa moved from Sydney to London in 2001 that he could look for a publishing company for his material. Brian May from the band Queen took an interest in his work and they are working on a collaboration with his band Mignition. Mig played the character of Galileo Figaro in the musical We Will Rock You, which is based entirely on Queen material.

Ayesa was a competitor of CBS television series Rock Star: INXS to be the new lead singer of INXS. He was the thirteenth singer to be eliminated, which means he was in the top three.
