On May 17, 2010 Clara Chung had the privilege to perform at a White House sanctioned event for the Asian American and Pacific Islanders Heritage Month (Dispelling the Model Minority Myth). With the help of Kal Penn She had the opportunity to perform in front of a panel of distinguished guests. Here’s a quote from Clara Chung, “I’m still so amazed that I had this opportunity. I’m even more blown away that Kal Penn (the lead actor from Harold and Kumar) was the one who suggested me for this event! I wouldn’t have landed this gig if it weren’t for him.” Watch the recap of her experience below. It’s amazing what she’s accomplished in a short amount of time.

Currently, Clara is recording her debut album. The release date is slated for the end of the
2010 summer, so make sure to be on the lookout for that! CAn’t wait, here’s some of her recent work: Clouds by Dumbfoundead x Jay Park x Clara and Fool’s Gold.
