MANILA, Philippines - More than 11,000 fans waited and were not disappointed when the Kapuso mall show in SM City Naga was held over the weekend as part of the region’s Kaogma Festival celebration.
The cast of Pilyang Kerubin, Basahang Ginto and Panday Kids was welcomed by the crowd that filled up the mall’s open parking lot as early as 4p.m. last May 29.
Unmindful of the balmy air, the audience soaked up the fun, joined the on-ground games and enjoyed the pre-event entertainment, hosted by Belli Flori and Pekto before the show started at 7 p.m.
Buboy Villar, Sabrina Mann and Julian Trono were the first to grace the stage.
Buboy was a hit, performing two songs in a row before calling in Sabrina who rendered Miley Cyrus ditties. Julian endeared himself to the crowd via a solo dance number that had them clapping most of the time.
The air was soon punctuated by shrills when Belli and Pekto introduced Geoff Eigenmann and Carla Abellana.
Geoff pulled up a lady fan and brought her on stage while he rendered a song. Geoff and Carla performed a duet that had the crowd teasing them to kiss on the spot.
The mall show was already in full swing and the people were crying for more entertainment when the hosts called in Barbie Forteza. When Barbie appeared on stage, the flashing of cameras was unstoppable. After her number, Barbie introduced Joshua Dionisio, who had the young girls in the audience screaming, even after he has performed his song-and-dance number.
The crowd swooned when the young stars sang Way Back Into Love.
To cap off the night, the Kapuso stars took the stage once more, thanked the audience and invited them to continue watching GMA shows and programs.
