ABS-CBN stars headline Ayala's Back-to-school treat

CEBU, Philippines - Kapamilya talents delighted shoppers at Ayala Center Cebu on the first day of the mall’s annual back-to-school sale last June 3rd. Jake Cuenca, Guji Lorenzana and Niña Dolino drove fans into a frenzy when they performed individually and got up close with the audience at the Activity Center.

Niña, the slim morena who saw her star rise due to a much-followed stint as Clarisse Zaragosa in the primetime vampire hit “Imortal,” did double duty that evening as emcee and performer. She kicked off the event with an upbeat song and dance number to the tune of Rihanna’s “Please Don’t Stop the Music.”

Right after, she introduced actor and recording artist Guji Lorenzana who then treated the crowd to a song-fest with his renditions of “Man Who Can’t Be Moved,” “Home” and “Just The Way You Are.” Guji is better known for starring alongside Kaye Abad in the TV adaptation of popular Tagalog pocketbook “Precious Hearts Romances Presents: The Bud Brothers.”

The most-awaited face to emerge was “In The Name of Love” actor Jake Cuenca who generously shook hands and photos with his Cebuano fans while singing his prepared pieces “Live Like We’re Dying,” “Ikaw Lamang” and “Eenie Meenie.”

More entertainment events like this at Ayala Center Cebu are scheduled this June to entice mall-goers and shoppers of all ages.
