Erik Santos and Angeline Quinto at the Araneta Coliseum

Sitting like Kings and Queens during the press conference of their long awaited concert entitled "Erik Santos and Angeline Quinto at the Araneta Coliseum", we were so delighted to hear the King and Queen of Theme Songs dish out their personal duet version of "This I Promise You" which was originally sung by NSync. According to Erik, the song epitomizes their relationship right now and if ever they had a proper theme song of their own, this would be it. Apart from their relationship, you're going to see a different set of songs to be sung in the concert that are personally picked by Erik and Angeline since the events conception, as they've talked about it during the past few years they've worked together. What's exciting is, they're utter yearning to do all of the songs they've dreamed of and doing it all in one event, in one place. I could see their eyes beaming of excitement when they mentioned some of them during that time and just imagine when they do these songs with extreme gusto because it'll be their rules, their show.

When asked about the lip sync issue, they both agreed that it would be great if singers of top caliber were given more breaks than the usual although they don't discount the more popular ones just like anybody else can do their own music and if that's what the public wants, that's what they'll get. Erik says practicality wise, Producers would want something good that will also earn so they can get their money back or earn off from it, that's what they do. Erik definitely has a point in that department. They also mentioned Ms. Lea Salonga's case where she did do it in an international awards ceremony when she couldn't do it live and had to still be there under those circumstances. 

They obviously look good together and when I asked about why they're not calling it official, Erik told us that what they have is already pretty special. They're always there for each other and they know what their relationship is right now but they don't want to put labels on it. They are taking their time and want to still be with each other without any pressure from anybody else or perhaps if they are together, they don't want other people to tear them apart in public. Erik says "If we'll be together, we would be glad for everyone to know but for now, she's special for me and I know that I am for her, that's a promise we'd keep for each other." Angeline on the other hand says "Erik is the guy who's going to be there for me when I need him. He's the one who I go to when I need help and even though I don't ask for it, he does it like he knows I need it."

Their concert "Erik Santos and Angeline Quinto at the Araneta Coliseum" will happen on August 15, 2015 at 8PM. Special guests will be Martin Nievera, Ms. Regine Velasquez. Musical Direction will be done by Homer Flores and the show will be directed by Johnny Manahan. For tickets please call 9115555 or visit Ticketnet.com.ph now!

Daniel Padilla Most Wanted Concert

If you haven't heard it yet, the teen king Daniel Padilla will be doing a concert called Daniel Padilla Most Wanted this June 13, 2015. The good looking guy will be singing a couple of songs mostly old ones as he has admitted to be an old soul. The songs he'll be performing is where he's mostly comfortable and as I posted in Instagram (Follow @kumagcow there please and on Twitter and Periscope!) he hasn't really had time to rehearse. He was able to rest these past few days and take the long way of choosing the songs, singing it a few times even if he lacked sleep because he's still taping episodes for his soap "Pangako Sa'yo" (I Promise You) which has gone worldwide in the past. They're probably also doing the same in this franchise because as it seems, the following the teen queen and king has is just phenomenal.

Mom Carla Estrada aka The Queen Mother has been very supportive of his son and Daniel confirms that she might actually be part of the show. As for Kathryn appearing, he knows that she's got a lot of work still on the same show and he doesn't know yet if it's going to be a surprise kind of thing... he hopes though that she'll get to be there so that fans would be happy. The show Most Wanted just makes this a mark of his career, he's already filled the Smart Araneta Coliseum in the past and this repeat in Mall of Asia Arena he says will be more personal. As of now, he said that the only tickets available will be SRO meaning mostly all the tickets got sold out when it was available online.

He's just human and when asked if he's nervous, he said he's worried because the lack of rehearsal time might actually be something to worry about. Though he's very optimistic that they're going to finish this on time and because it's showing tomorrow, he hopes he doesn't disappoint especially those who have supported him all these years. This time, it's more personal, this time it's more of him and he hopes that in some way, even if the teens of this time wouldn't be able to know most of the songs he's singing, they would be able to relate to it just like he does because that's what Daniel Padilla loves.

This is the most awaited concert of the year and the proof of the putting is it's outstanding box office success so far. I hope teens and their friends would be able to watch this concert in Mall of Asia tomorrow. You'll be missing a lot if you don't watch the teen king perform once again on stage. Who knows, Kathryn might show up and you won't be there!  

Congratulations Daniel! Break a leg tomorrow!

Martin Nievera and Pops Fernandez for The Penthouse Live Reunion!

Martin Nievera and Pops Fernandez For Penthouse Live! Reunion.

Don't you miss the Concert King and Concert Queen? Want to see them together in one event? For those who lived in the 80's, one particular show made a mark in evening talk, it's called Penthouse Live! Martin Nievera and Pops Fernandez were strangers then, had opposite views about life, their banters made headlines and then one day, Martin Nievera just decided to court her, then marry her. Yes, this was where it all started. Now, they're doing a reunion show at the PICC Plenary Hall on December 12, at 8 PM. It's called "The Penthouse Live Reunion".  

Penthouse live was where Donya Buding started, (the infamous character that Nanette Inventor made for the show), talks say that she will be there, but Strawberry her supposed daughter won't because legend says, she didn't even exist. Talk show host Jojo Alejar started here too together with The Tigers (who does mean 80's Pop dance routines), they'll be back in the show for this one night and it'll make your memories come crashing through on this show by DSL Productions. They'll also be getting us surprise guests. There will be a few artists who might drop by as well, some would look like they're just part of the audience, then sing or perform with the royal couple later on. There are a lot of things you should look out for in this show.

Martin comments about the current TV industry and says "It's hard to asses them now because it's so fast. If you can promote something quickly, you should do it the same way. It's very easy to know things now. I remember the time when Boyet, Johnny and Jay Ilagan guested in the show, they got offended when I asked their names because I was clueless about them. They ended up not going back to the show after that. Now I know everybody, for as long as there are people out there who want to see us as us, we're there!" says Martin.

Ms. Pops Fernandez says "We have to give it to the artists and people who recognize our work. Penthouse Live was a peg for many people, other shows followed suit and try to emulate what we did naturally. There's no fakeness in that show, from marriage to annulment everything was in front of the camera. I hope people get to see music, talk and everything we did for the show. I have to thank the show for paving the way for my career and hosting and recording. Everything happens for a reason, I grew up and became more responsible. There was a stage for being bitter and angry but I didn't want to be miserable for the rest of my life. I never wanted my kids to be involved or get reactions from them. "

Martin adds "Robin and Ram are just talking about it now but nothing changed because Pops never destroyed me in front of my kids. That's the best thing. Robin is sensible, Ram is sensitive. We give our kids free will to even tell us or give feedback with songs now. We are so blessed to have good offsprings. Initially Pops wanted this to be a concert, I wanted it to be a TV special which will show on public TV like a month, but we can do it anywhere. With her involved behind the scenes and in concert production, I am very happy for Pops. For me, there's no one else that can be like Pops of course."

Here are some excerpts of the press conference, enjoy!

Remember the date, it's December 12, 2014 8PM at the PICC Plenary Hall. Get your tickets from Ticketnet outlets nationwide or call 8919999. This concert is also directed by Rowell Santiago, so you're going to be sure it'll be like when we were there in the 80's.
