MANILA, Philippines — It was like attending a double wedding as celebrity sweethearts KD Estrada and Alexa Ilacad, and Darren Espanto and Cassy Legaspi, recently had a double date at the official launch of streaming app Disney+ in the Philippines.
To the tune of “Be Our Guest” from hit Disney movie “Beauty and the Beast,” dinner was served to the celebrity couples, who were spotted to be toasting wine, whispering to each other, enjoying the live music, giggling at the video messages of Disney stars, forming heart hand gestures while taking pictures, and doing other sweet stuff at the launch.
Truly, “Can You Feel the Love Tonight?” from “The Lion King” roared loud and clear!
