AFTER THE CHRISTMAS holidays, Valentine’s Day will come next and this early, Regine Velasquez is announcing her special Valentine concert titled “Pa-MORE”. MORE stands for Martin Nievera, Ogie Alcasid, Regine herself and Erik Santos. It will be staged at MOA Arena on February 10 and you can get your tickets now.
Regine has reason to be thankful for the passing year as it’s been a great one for her. Her long running Saturday show, “Sarap Diva”, continues to rate well. Her two-night 30th anniversary held last October at the MOA Arena, “Regine 3.0”, was an enormous succerss.
Her 40th anniversary album, also titled “Regine 3.0”, quickly reached platinum status in just six weeks and the Platinum award was handed to her by Viva Records exec MG Mozo in “Sarap Diva” recently.
We’d like to thank Viva for sending us a copy of the album, which is really a collector’s item as it’s actually 3 CD’s in one with ten songs each. The first record is “Renditions” with revivals like “Tadhana”, “Bakit Ako Mahihiya”, “If You Go Away”. The second album is “Rise” with songs like “Higher”, “Walang Hanggang Ikaw” and “Say Goodbye”. The third album is “Reflections” with past hits like “Dadalhin”, “On the Wings of Love” and “Kung Maibabalik Ko Lang”.
“Thank you sa aking Viva family,” says Asia's Songbird. “Pinaghirapan nating gawin ito. Salamat sa mga nakasama ko, sa lahat ng arrangers who made new areglos for my songs, at sa lahat ng bumili ng album ko.”
For next year, Regine fans will be glad to know that a new movie for her is in the works. And here’s hoping it will really bring out the best in her as an actress.
