OKLMSSV (OK Lang Maging Single Sa Valentines!) - A Concert by Yeng Constantino

Do you ask yourself if "OK LANG MAGING SINGLE SA VALENTINES!?". Honestly I don't know; but one great concert artist is out to answer that question come February 3 at the Music Museum. Yeng Constantino brought the house down on her last concert at the Aliw Theater. Now that she's performing at the Music Museum, she promises to treat those who don't really have someone special this season. I mean, she's got a point! Why in the world does it have to always be the lovers... why can't the single guys and gals also have fun?! =)


I got the chance to throw a couple of questions and first asked why is she SO thin? Yes ladies and gentlemen as you can see on the photo Yeng Constantino is so thin! Did I just say that again?! LOL! She candidly replied that some folks actually found her fat when she had her concert at the ALIW theater (of course I didn't believe her!); while she didn't feel like it at that time, she watched her video and she felt (somehow shocked to see) that she looked a little big at that time so she got on a diet that fast. Just look at her now, totally different from the last time we saw her. She feels more confident now than ever! Although she doesn't want folks to see that she's giving in to pressures like that, she personally wanted to have a body like a rocker. Her personal peg was Gwen Stefani/PINK and so we kinda got her point. She wanted to have some cuts and she's planning to work on that next phase soon. Though in my books, she's still the pretty Yeng we know. I personally like how she's so passionate about her craft, which brings us to the next question I got from Krissy and Ericka... they wanted to know where Yeng got her passion?!

She thought about it for a few seconds and uttered "Hmmm.." She says her passion is innate, it was something she always knew from the very beginning; she always knew that she was born to perform. She told anecdotes of her as a young child performing on tables for a measly five pesos that her Dad would gladly give. In those times she always felt so good about it... that was already bliss for her! I asked her about the time she cried in the ASAP Christmas Special and told us that it was because her Mom was in the audience and she really felt connected to the song at that time (Sa Ugoy Ng Duyan). She felt she did a lot of horrible things back then when she was struggling to be a musician but now she understands that her Mom was only protecting her and had dreams for her at that time. She told us that she continued to cry even after that number and if her Mom and Dad weren't there at that time she must have messed up her make up not thinking she had a couple of numbers after that.

She also told us that she's single and she wanted to have fun at this time of the year. She didn't want us in the same boat to merely watch those who are in a relationship enjoy the occasion while we all sit in the corner and be emo. She wants this to be like a Singles Party where everyone at any age and any relationship status would have a rockin time just like in any of her other concerts. She will also be releasing something NOT HEARD from her albums or concerts before. Plus she's going to have something played on the screens later on in the eve of February 3 at 8PM. This show is produced by Jack Rufo of famed ASAP Sessionistas; win cooperation with Cornerstone Concerts and major sponsors RRJ, Quilabet. This is directed by Dido Camara. Yeng and Cornerstone would like to thank RRH, Let's Face It, Orange Magazine TV.com, MYX and Magic 89.9. You guys should definitely watch out for this! Because it is true! Ok Lang (naman talaga) Maging Single Sa Valentines!

New York City: A Crazy City

NY Public Library and Cabs with International drivers ^_^

I still remember the lights at Times Square, when this young Filipino lad landed in the land of promise US of A. I can never forget the feeling of being squeezed in between expecting that everything was "Sex and the City" where Sarah Jessica Parker would suddenly just pop up into the open and greet me with her infamous GIGANTIC flower and Manolo Blahniks while getting splashed in the streets. Well right in front of me, after hours and hours of sleep and deprivation of it was just the city's public library and CABS... hundreds of CABS with Indian and Jamaican looking fellas. Talk about a mix of cultures! O_O

My friend promised me a night of enjoyment, well I said yeah yeah you can probably do anything that you want and we could end up anywhere but I won't even know where I am anyway. Sure enough, he became an instant tour guide... well not exactly...he gave in and got a city tour instead! ^_^ all expenses paid, courtesy of him (lol). It has the nicest name too… Trusted Tours & Attractions which you’ll surely love! ^_^

I saw couple of pictures of well known comedian Rex Navarette when I watched a couple of his shows in the Phillies. Yeah he knew what he was taking about. He really knows where to hit funny bones of people like me. Just a pat on the back and a couple of "messing up" of my friend's hair suddenly gave me free tickets to see his show that night. Man was I in for sumthing... Something crazy as Rex Navarette.

Since that was in the evening, we hopped around the streets and pointed me to some of the coffee table book pictures I saw at shops like starbucks in my homeland. That was really a sight to behold. Liberty... and I was at an awe!

OMG! Liberty moved! O_O

The tour was to blame for that, it was the culprit why was I holding my breath everytime! I even had fun at the famous Madame Tussauds wax museum! All included in the New York tours package they offered.

Bush and me discussing WORLD and International matters
