KZ Tandingan does SUPREME at the MOA Arena

She has just recently made us proud during her stint at China’s biggest contest SINGER 2018 and now is dubbed as Asia’s Supreme KZ Tandingan. The soul authority is now going to have her major concert this coning June 22, that’s a Friday at the MOA Arena in Pasay City.

KZ knows she has already penetrated the Chinese market and she is hopeful to also release a couple of singles/ one album for that market. They are in talks with Star Records to make this a reality. I also asked her about the prize she won in some of the games she did during Singer 2018, she thought she won a trip to New Zealand but it seems she heard wrong and the trip she won was only for a place that looks like New Zealand in China, she thinks she won't have time to actually get that because she initially had planned to take her folks to New Zealand. She needs to finish this concert and a couple of commitments this year, after that it'll be good.

She’s got big dreams, and with her great representation last month, she’s going to bring it all together with her friends Iñigo Pascual, Gloc 9, Moira Dela Torre, love of her life TJ Monterde, Kyla, Jason Dy and Daryl Ong. So expect to be wowed with some of the best in the industry and more surprise guests (ahh there’s more indeed!).

This is produced by Cornerstone Concerts (her management), Star Events, and will be directed by Mr. M himself. If you want to get tickets, you can get it through SM Tickets 470 22 22.

See why she’s called Asia’s Soul Supreme!

KZ Tandingan, TJ Monterde in CDO for VIVO

 CDO has such a place in my heart because of it's people. I've been there once and every time I reminisce about what things I did there, I enjoyed it most meetings strangers that helped me go around the city. Seeing how improved it is over the years, I felt like it's bound to succeed to be an economic powerhouse in the south much like the other ones in Mindanao. 

If you don't know, most of the brands in Manila don't actually get the bulk of their business from here but in Visayas and Mindanao. Vivo knows this so in turn they held a concert for their fans in Limketkai Mall. I've been watching KZ Tandingan do well in SINGER 2018 in China and is continuing to do well in the rankings, even beat Jessie J in one of the rounds. Her boyfriend TJ Monterde is also making waves locally so who better to make the concert even special but them right? They are both Vivo brand ambassadors for years now. This was also a post valentine gig on February 17, so why not get them there right?

 To even make things better, they got X Factor alumni Jeric Medina, Chandreena, and Shameena Moorjani as well as CDO based Visayan pop singer Winset Jacot. They became front acts before the big show, which everyone in that mall enjoyed because they were very good performers too.

Vivo gave away V7 smartphones to two lucky fans who posted online during the concert. Then TJ and KZ personally handed them out during the last part of the show.

KZ came from this province and seeing them do this concert there was just the right thing to do right after she found her new found fame in China. They will continue to do these stints around the country and not just deliver the best phones they have in their arsenal, if you have questions about them or want to follow what events they have this year, visit the Vivo website at www.vivo.com/ph.

This year is going to be exciting!

Vivo Gives Back To Soldiers of Marawi

Top 5 brand Vivo Philippines isn't just going to stand there and do nothing. On December 17, 2017 they went out and visited injured and recovering soldiers at the Armed Forces of the Philippines Hospital in V. Luna, Quezon City. Executives from Vivo and their celebrity endorsers were in attendance to give these brave frontliners some cute entertainment so they could feel the spirit of Christmas. 

It was tough out there, some of them couldn't even take a bath for days unless they re-supply their arms and rest a bit. They also didn't sleep that much so they won't let the people of Marawi City and our country down when some rebels tried to force their way in the once glorious city.

Kisses Delavin, KZ Tandingan, Darren Espanto, Jason Dy sang their heart out and listened to the soldiers stories while they were there in hopes to ease their conditions a bit now that they are done with their job and recovering. Albeit some of them have gunshot wounds, amputees, or psychologically affected, you won't see them falter, but instead still see them all tough because they knew they were doing it for our people, a noble deed.

Towards the end of the program, Vivo Philippines presented a cheque for Php 100,000 to be given as aid for the rehabilitation and recovery of patient soldiers and a heartwarming video dedicated to them found here: (https://www.facebook.com/VivoPhil/videos/525331654510639/?id=296173570575105&brand_redir=296173570575105)

I prayed for them this evening in the hopes they too would spend a lot of time with friends and family. 

Merry Christmas! 

Big Mouth, Big Heart, Big Night with Martin Nievera

Now I know you and I love Matin Nievera, but this news would make you love him even more. You see, he's been helping a lot of artists start their careers and support them in their concerts by appearing for free. You can ask the greats, and he'll probably be in their Thank You list because he's always been like that. In this concert though, he takes it even further. Outbox Media Powerhouse Corporation and Ka Tunying's Cafe will be producing this concert entitled BIG MOUTH, BIG HEART, BIG NIGHT for the benefit of our brothers and sisters from the Dumagat Tribe from Sitio Apia Barangay Calawis in Antipolo. For those who don't know, these tribes used to live in coastal areas but with the advent of modern living, had been pushed back to live in the mountains of Rizal, Aurora and Quezon. These people live off the land and most of them live below the poverty line. Their resource and means only come from the forest and to say the least, they live very hard lives. This is one of the instances that they knew they had to help. This is why they put up an annual benefit concert. Anthony Tunying Taverna, Ms. Rossel Taberna and Martin Nievera will be entertaining you for a good cause so if you have the time to watch the show, please do! 

Ms. Rossel says "We will try to be there and they mostly need medical assistance. We will go there personally. We will have programs, games for the kids and adults too. It's hard to get there but we will try to do a small activity in the remote school. It's also our first time to hear about them, imagine they are just 2 hours from here, so hopefully we can help them by climbing to their community this August. We want people to also be aware about this cause and we're thankful for Martin who wanted to do this with us."

Ka Tunying said "The truth is Outbox Media has been already there even before Ka Tunying's Cafe came in the picture. They have been doing this for 11 years. We did a similar show in the past but I'm glad that even if he's very busy, he still had us have him for the show."

Martin Nievera says "This is my second time to work with them. The past was with Pops and my kids, and I knew we had to help the Dumagats. Somehow I have big dreams, big intentions for the pleasure of where the money is going. It's more of what I think singers should start doing. I am glad to be one of their performers that evening. They don't have to do this but they are giving back. This is substance, I celebrated my 35th year in the industry and this is big for me -and is an achievement. My aim is to be priceless. It's their project and I am helping whatever way we can."

"When I choose songs for events like these it is mostly based on their wishlist, and we dedicate them to the people who will go there. It will be at the Metro Tent Conference Center. It won't be charity if you post about it on social media but if it's to get more fans and people to participate in this program, then we'll do it. I personally have a lot of low moments, there's a new purpose for me now. Hopefully this would be a beginning of something new too. Hopefully to be used for more other than business. There are a lot of singers who can do this, maybe not have the title, maybe better than me, you have to be grounded and humble though because their fame is as fast as the internet. I wanna do more endorsements and shows that last a long time. On September 4, I'll have a show in Hawaii at Blue Room. It would be hard to see that not filled. This concert, I don't have to do this but to set an example and hopefully to follow me with whatever fame I have left, just me doing this is an honor. These two (Ka Tunying and Rossel) don't have to do this either but they do and these are the things we have to emulate because it is selfless, it's a way to help and that's a great thing."

I was surprised Mr. Nievera is very well dressed, even if he told us he didn't have a stylist. He just buys em off the shelf and watches what people would wear. He must have really invested in clothing in the past. I envy him.

For tickets you may contact 7034239 and this concert will happen at the Metro Tent Convention Center. His guests includes Kakai Bautista the dental diva and super power belter KZ Tandingan. Make sure you watch as the Php 5,500 price of the tickets will include a plated dinner and this fantastic show.

VIVO V5 Plus Officially Launched in the Philippines

It's a great day to talk about one of the nicest phones out in the market, this is the VIVO V5 Plus. Wanting it to be the PERFECT SELFIE phone is a tall order and needing it to be at par with the world's best means it would need to beat 4 other brands but that seems to be believable. Concentrating on one of the features so to speak seems to be the key and with how they've understood that Filipinos love taking selfies (having been named SELFIE capital of the world) might actually get them there because by far, their new phone VIVO V5 Plus would do the job.

Endorsed by no less than NBA Superstar Steph Curry, this specialized phone promise that they would be able to take that perfect shot when you need to show off that gorgeous face of yours on point. A few days ago at SM Mall of Asia, they let us take a hands on look of this particular model. It's quite light, designed with more bevels than corners, and of course an unbelievable 20 MP + 8 MP Dual Front Camera (with an f 2.0 aperture so you could take in a LOT of light) that could make you love taking selfies all over again without worrying too much about noise in dark areas or even in parties.

The phone comes with a 5.5 inch IPS LCD which is around 1920x1080 pixels resolution plus Gorilla Glass 5 screen which is quite tough for what it's worth. It's dimensions are 152.6 x 74 x 7.3 mm and can fit snug on your pockets.

This still has a 35mm jack for audio connections, completely powered by a 2GHz Octa Core Snapdragon 625 processor, added with an Adreno 506 GPU (which could perfectly handle your apps and games), a 4GB RAM (ample amount of storage) which could be expandable to 256GB using a micro SD on the SIM 2 slot and enjoy hours worth of music or videos.

The rear camear is 16 MP because face it, you need those extra MP's more for your self. It's apt for general taking of photos and landscape shots and is quite fast since they use the propreitary Funtouch OS 3.0. Takes a while to lose power too as it's got a 3160 mAh so it could last you a day or more with it's removable battery. For me, what it basically sells is the selfie feature which you can take advantage for those Bokeh or blurry background shots. It has been also tried and tested by some of Manila's bloggers, influencers, celebrities and their endorsers. Speaking of which were also there!

James and Tony from BoybandPH was also there. We also had the chance to listen to the powerful belter KZ Tandingan, whom I personally love in her emotional songs particularly "Wag Ka Nang Umiyak" which moved people and perhaps on the verge of tears.

The phone retails for Php 19,990 and os available for pre order today in Vivo Phone Philippine outlets and distributors nationwide! A dual selfie phone in this price range is already a steal and if you experience how it takes your selfie shots to another level, you won't think twice about how this could happen to be your next phone!
