Meet XLR8 – The New Boyband on the Block!
Korean boybands are huge hits in the Philippines. Now is the time to have our very own!
Why do Filipinos love K-pop boybands like FTIsland, TVXQ, Big Bang, SS501 and Super Junior so much? Is it because of their sleek look? Is it because of their hip songs? Is it because of their cool grooves? Or is it because of their infectious music videos?
The long wait is over. I believe we now have a boyband that will give these k-pop groups a run for their money. Introducing XLR8!
XLR8 has 8 members namely Francis Ramos, Carlo Lazerna, Hideaki Torio, Caleb Santos, Arkin Del Rosario, Melmar Magno, Meljohn Magno and Adrian Muhlach.
They are being helmed by Viva to be launched anytime this month of March.
You might ask, how do they sound? Do they have swagger? The “it” factor? Are they cool or are they just another baduy boyband just like what we had in the past?
Well, Starmometer believes they sound very current. Their vocals are way BETTER than any Korean boybands that you can name. Hear for yourself to believe. Here’s the radio rip of their upcoming single “You’re So Hot!”:
Do they have swagger? Absolutely! Check out the teaser of their dance routine for “You’re so Hot!”:
Although their songs could be better, i believe we now have the boyband that will resurrect Pinoy Pop. XLR8 is our answer to Super Junior and other Korean boybands that we embraced.
Watch out for the launching of XLR8 any day this month. It will be a start of something good in Pinoy Pop!

Comment by kpop adict!!! | March 21, 2010
EWWWWWWWWW… EPIC FAIL. Bakit ba may mga ganito pa sa mundo? Mga dakilang manggagaya. I really hate OPM or any music na galing sa Pilipinas (except indigenous instrumental music). Sabihin n’yo nang walang mangyayari sa bansa natin kung ganito kami. Bakit? Pag ginusto ba namin yang OPM uunlad ang bansa! KADIRI. Dapat walang ganito. Mga wala kayong originality. MAJOR LOSER.!
Comment by ashamed filipino | March 22, 2010
uy… huwag naman kayong ganyan! ok lang naman sila… oo nga gumaya lang sila sa mga kpop boy bands, oo nga kulang sila sa originality. pero may talent naman sila! huwag naman kayong super mag-react sa mga ganito. super kayo! perang naman ang gagaling niyo ring kumanta! okay lang na mag-post kayo ng gaya-gaya etc. pero huwag naman kayong super na halos imudmod niyo na sa mukha nila na wala silang laban sa mga kpop boy bands. meron naman pero sana, magkaroon naman sila ng originality. yun lang naman yun e…
Comment by happy pinay | March 26, 2010
what the heck?! okay? giyera ng mga pinoy? well, actually, super KPOP addict ako. and i must say that kpop celebrities are better than them. DUH. sino bang mas magaling yung original o yung gaya-gaya?! hindi naman necessarily na wala silang talent. maraming talent ang Pinoy. SUPER GAYA-GAYA lang. bakit kasi hindi mag-isip OUT OF THE BOX? lahat ng makita ginagaya. kung may talent gumawa ng sariling paraan para sumikat.
Comment by kpoplove | March 27, 2010
mag ingat naman kayo sa mga words na ginagamit niyo..
hate is a very strong word to use..
mga pilipino kayo hindi koreano.
maypa-eew2 pa kayo jan.
kayo rin kaya ang kadiri jan.
imbes na tangkilikin niyo yung opm
puro kpop inaatupag niyo..
kilabutan naman kayo sa mga pinagsasasabi niyo.
bakit di na lang kayo pumunta ng korea para maging koreano na rin kayo?
kung mawawala lahat ng mga pilipinong may pag iisisip na katulad sa inyo,
malamang iilan na lang ang tao sa pilipinas..
makonsensya kayo!!
MAHIYA KAYO SA SARILI NIYO!!!

ai naku,,,, maganda naman talaga ung kpop ehh,,, pero kaya ng PINOY yan!

@truebluepinoy
Yes, Tama ka diyan. Pinoys are just being BIASED after all. Una kasi nating narinig, nakita, napanood at na-adapt ang K-Pop kaya ngayon na lumabas na ang P-Pop, we never found the will to accept and like it. Bakit nung lumabas and J-Pop, hindi man lang kayo nag-react? Tas ngayong P-Pop ang lumabas, todo todo ang galit niyo. You never even gave them a chance. Hindi naman natin kailangang mag-compare eh. Imbes na hanapin niyo yung SIMILARITY at murahin niyo `to, Look for the SIMILARITY and learn to appreciate it.
Nakakahiya kayo, sariling atin tinatakwil niyo. Mahiya kayo sa balat niyo, PLEASE.

listen to the album before saying anything! crab mentality is a serious disease!tsk! originality?! lolz…filipinos are too misinformed, kpop is a MAJOR copycat as well! don’t open your mouth if you don’t know what you are saying, idiots! someone needs to drill some sense into your brains! you are’nt even helping those peepz when majority of you are downloading their mp3s on the net illegally! tsk….pop has been around the philippines for a long time so what the heck is the problem? this attitude will bring everyone nowhere..ha! its too brave of you to make shallow arguments! of course, supporting the music industry would bring success to the country, if you don’t think so, then you are an imbecile than i thought you would be! please don’t degrade yourselves than what you already are…originality?think out of the box?yes why not but why don’t you also do it instead of depending on them alone, helping each other do bear fruits!

Comment by koreanatics | March 28, 2010
….. Before you bash and form an anti group, why don’t you try listening to their other songs? Like for you and dance with me.
I understand why you people don’t really like them, but it’s always the same… Walang originality? Try making a song that’s 100% original, you can’t.
Palagi nalang ganito eh. You know what’s the worst part about you people bashing? Mga pinoy din kayo. Hindi niyo lamang masuportahan ang sarili ninyong kalahi. Don’t you have pride?

Comment by kathcutei | March 30, 2010
I’m not really surprised that they came up with P-pop since probably they just wanted Filipinos to adore their own music
Though, I’m not really into the whole idea that they said “Their vocals are way BETTER than any Korean boybands that you can name.” because for a fact they just started as a group and are only known here in the Philippines, not even everybody knows them.
I’m pretty sure when I ask my classmates they wouldn’t even be able to name them. How can they say they’re better, plus their dance moves are amateur compared to those of Korean acts and I know for a fact that Kpop groups are well known for their great dance skills.
I myself is a Jpop fan. I don’t like Kpop that much anymore but I still think they’re better.
I do wish though that Filipinos would have their originality.
Comment by Michi | April 1, 2010
ahhmm,,,, tama yun,,,,,, kahit alam naten na original at magaganda lahat ng songs ng kpop,, pero i think 2migil lang ang Ppop,,,, diba nauna na ung Sexbomb un original lahat ng songs nila and magaganda kaya lang kulang lang ang support ng pinoy ehh,,,, pero di ko rin masisi ung iba kasi talagang maganda ang kpop,,,, wala na akong makita na walang korean song sa mga mp3 oh kahit sa phone,,, hehe,,,!
Comment by dj | April 1, 2010
ok lng sakin.. bakit ung iba nandidiri? kailangan natin tangkilin ang sariling atin. pro sna sa mga group na tulad nito, wag lng nilang totally na gayahin ang ibang country.. ang hirap kc tangkilikin pag ganun. ok lng na mag adapt sa uso, wag lng natin gayahin ng sakto. bkit ang fahrenheit taiwanese group gumaya lng naman sa kpop eh pro sikat cla. at ang jpop ginaya lng din nila ang kpop. wala ba tayong karapatan gawin yun? i-train lng sna cla.. ipractice ang vocals and dancing pra wala ng masabi.. nagiging baduy lng naman kapag baduy ang mga songs.. sa songs din yan nakasalalay. kaya parang baduy tangkilikin ang “BOY GROUP / GIRL GROUP” dahil sa history ng boy/girl group natin. pano mga grupo dati puro boldstar tulad ng viva hotbabes, sexbomb.. pangalan pa lng, may gana ka pa bang tangkilikin un. bakit ang banda nag adapt lng naman sa america pro sumikat ang hale at spongecola.. gawin din natin yun sa boy/girl group. sana gandahan lng ang lyrics.. kaya natin toh

MGA P KAYO!!! HATERS!!!! IPOKRITA. PAANO KAYO NAPADPAD DITO KUNG D KAYO INTERESADO SA XLR8? IM SURE YOU’LL GO GAGA KAPAG NAKITA NYO SILA IN PERSON.
ISA PA YOU WELCOME THOSE KPOP BUT NOT YOUR OWN TALENTS? MGA SIRA….
Comment by askme | April 2, 2010
I’m not really a fanatic but I think I’ll like this group. I heard their songs and they’re all good. Filipinos should learn how to patronize their own talents. How would they make it to the international scene if their co-Filipinos are bashing them. If you don’t like them, then keep quiet. Sure, you can give your own opinion, but make sure it’s a constructive one. Destructive criticisms are nowhere to go.

..its not that i hate them..i hate the fact that they tried to imitate K POP bands..they’ve got the talent..the looks are good also…maybe Koreans are the best for us as of now…but why don’t we try to appreciate our own boys…they simply need to come up with new style,some more originality..K POP are famous ‘coz Korean girls support them…if we support these guys…they might also reach the fame that K POP has achieved..^^

Comment by yanie | April 10, 2010
I’m a kpop and jpop fan… kahit fan ako nyan, gusto ko ang OPM. pati nga mga friends ko eh, in fact yung isa kong friend kumakanta siya ng tagalog versions… pero ang idea ng bandang ito…. DOWN!… oo nga tangkilikin natin ang sariling atin pero sa atin ba nanggaling ang concept ng band na yan? marami na akong sites na nabuksan na pinakita sila at narinig ko ang isang song nila *hindi ko lang matandaan kung ano* pero yung concept niya halatang galing sa super junior…. lalo nang natawag na walang originality (kasi ginaya talaga nila totally…. from the beat to the album cover) TAMA may talent sila pero wag nyo naman sabihing they are WAY BETTER than our idols! kasi yung mga kpop bands nagwowork hard talaga sila to come up with their OWN concept tapos sasabihan nyo lang na mas magaling ang band na yan na nanggaya na lang ng concept kesa sa naghirap na gumawa ng kanila? so masisisi mo ba kaming kpop fan na inaayawan sila? sa totoo lang pati naman kpop walang originality eh pero sa kanila kasi kung gagaya sila hindi naman totally ginaya na… sobra naman kasi… at tsaka yung mga anti-kpop or jpop dyan… bakit hindi kayo nagagalit sa mga sumisikat na singers,etc. from west? dapat nga mas tangkilikin nyo pa ang jpop, kpop or asiapop kesa sa west kasi galing SILA at TAYO sa east at nasa same continent tayo hello!!
tsaka yung sinasabi na dinodownload lang illegally… well maraming kpop or jpop fans talaga na ganyan dito pero meron talagang todo suporta. bumibili talaga yung iba (kasama ako) ng mga cds nila from korea/japan. (kahit nga mga cds ng local meron ako) tsaka yung mga download na yan… at least hindi siya nakakadagdag sa mga taong bumibili ng pirated na cds ng mga kpop songs.
mas maganda pa na wag nalang pausuhin ang PPOP na yan na galing lang ang concept from kpop. panatilihin nalang ang OPM kung saan ang mga Pilipino sikat na manganganta ng mga ballads. yun ang sariling atin… wag nang ipagpilitan ang hindi naman pede lalo lang nagkakagulo!

sorry na triple post!
Comment by jem | April 11, 2010
Wow. I am surprised, astounded, astonished, amazed on how some of the comments here are so unpatriotic. I cannot believe that SOME of the people who posted comments here WOULD ACTUALLY WANT TO SEE THE PHILIPPINE MUSIC INDUSTRY DEAD rather than see a Filipino boy band do music SIMILAR to that of KPOP bands. I mean isn’t that just immature?
Wouldn’t all of you agree that the reason why such boy bands like XLR8 exist is because the Philippine music industry is trying desperately hard to win back their audience, who have been mesmerized by kpop or other asian music? Though, on the other hand, I am glad that the Philippine audience is now identifying itself with ASIA, which JAPAN would love to see, it doesn’t necessarily translate into the people hating and downsizing ITS OWN MUSIC.
ON the issue of uunlad ba ang Pinas kung susuportahan namin ang OPM, ano sa tingin mo? Gosh, napakababaw lang talaga ng reason na ito.
ON the issude of panggagaya, hindi ba’t kaya ginagaya ang isang bagay o proseso ay dahil napatunayan na ang pagiging epektibo nito? Originality, yes, is good but there are just some things that we must copy cause we just know that it is the best. Aminin niyo, may mga ginaya na rin kayo dahil sa tingin niyo it is the best.
In the end, we are still Filipinos. I don’t want you guys to love XLR8, what I just want is for you to respect the music industry. If you want to download as many KPOP or JPOP music on your ipod or mp3 players, go ahead, do it. JUST don’t ever wish that the Philippine Music Industry should just die. Peace.

I saw the album cover of XLR8 and I can say they imitated the album cover of Super Junior <3
It's ok with the PPOP thingy but don't imitate ok even the album cover and also the sounds! The introduction of the song "You're so hot" sounds like SORRY SORRY of SUJU!
XLR8 danced like "tuod" (some friends of mine described them in that term)
GET REAL and UNIQUE!!
Comment by Lorraine_Chupungco | April 12, 2010
XLR8 needs more exposure and to perform more in front of the public and on TVs. I watched the mastershowman after I watched the concert of SuJu at the Araneta last Saturday, they’re not that bad (XLR8) after all some of the boys in XLR8 are “cuties”

Comment by denise lachica | April 12, 2010
Their description on this page are soooo biased.
Give the kpOp industry a run for their money? Please! That doesn’t even count as a joke. I’m not a kPop fan and I’m kind of annoyed how people treat them almost like Gods but I’ve heard some of them and they sound nice.
Their vocals are way BETTER???! With capital letters? Go ahead and suck their asses out why don’t you? Sure they sound nice but they are nowhere near the kpop voices I’ve heard!
If all you PRO’s out there support them because they are fellow Filipinos, then support Abu-Sayaf, MILF and the NPA. Surely they are Filipinos? Don’t go saying things like you’re some king of saint saying don’t do this don’t do that, because I`m SURE you do those things to. Everyone does it.
I could actually agree with giving them advise and a chance with it but with the way they act? It’s as if they’re all high and mighty already. Try being humble why don’t you?
And the ‘Hot’ song? Have you even understood what it actually says? They’re gonna do everything for ‘her’ because she’s hot! Just because she’s hot! So what if she’s not that hot? They won’t even give her a glance? It’s like they’re only after the S word. Geez. Use your heads before you support something. Dahil pinoy bigyan ng chance at tangkilikin. Grabe. Sige bigyan nyo ng chance mga teroristang pinoy at criminal! May konting kasalanan nga lang d nyo na mapatawad eh! Crab Mentality.. =_=”

well…ok naman ang xlr8 kung pagbabasehan eh ung looks at talent…uu meron nga sila laban sa mga korean/japanese group..pero sana naman sa susunod…wag po nila maxadong gayahin ang mga korean band…kasi..isa lang tlga mangyayare jan..dadami haters nila…lalo na kung kpop/jpop lovers..
gaya na lang nung isa nilang song na tunog sorry sorry ng super junior…isipin nio na lang kung ano magiging reaction ng mga fans nun dba? xmpre magagalit…kau kaya gayahin ewan ko lang kung ano magiging reaction nio?..kaya di nio masisisi ung iba na umayaw sa xlr8 kahit na pinoy pa xia…at stop demanding na mas magaling xlr8 sa mga kpop/jpop band…kc gulo yan…

rather than hating them don’t you think it will be more appropriate to support them? after all we should listen to proper songs with the right language. I agree that it may look like they copied it from kpop but still we should support our own, right?
Comment by DenisTroll | April 15, 2010
Oh, duh. Like the koreans have originality.. Go and look it up muna, will you? Those koreans started that whole “kpop” thing by imitating Western/Japanese music first (but of, course, with korean lyrics) and after some time they developed it to fit their own taste, hence the kpop we see today. So what’s ACTUALLY the point in bashing these boys who trained hard and are doing their best to make good FILIPINO music? I am a huge jpop/jrock/kpop fan myself, but “since” I’m only a fan, and I’m not the one dancing/singing/performing, I know I definitely am not in the position to say that “they suck”, or “they lack”, or whatnot… I mean, OPM music and visuals are finally starting to progress (that’s one of the good things I see in this), and even if they start not-so-original, believe me, no matter what it’ll become uniquely Filipino in the end. That’s what always happens. Again, please look up the history of kpop/jrock/jpop first before you talk about originality. AND give these boys their well-deserved chance. Neh?

Could you filipinos stop hating on them. No originality?! Atleast they are creating song of their own that they composed unlike our artists today who only revive songs over and over and then sing and dance to american and korean songs. They are actually more original than you think if you would get your infos straight and listen to their other songs on their album before you start judging. We need to more supportive to our Filipinos artists instead of hating. HATING will not get the philippines anywhere so you might as well keep your mouth shut.

We do not only support XLR8 because we are filipinos too but more reasons like they have good songs, they are talented, they have potential, they create songs of their own, they don’t revive, and more… so haters shut up
k?
Comment by kpopforever | April 17, 2010
Hmmm… I think only people who really appreciate music because of “music”, and artists because of their talents likes them. Others who only hankers after the korean dudes cuz of their *ahem, ahem* almost-perfect looks (Plastic surgery is a trend in Korea, mind you. If you have no idea how “horrendous” some Korean celebs look like before getting touch ups, look it up first.), height (ok, we’re just in the same position w/ Japan on this one), originality esp. with the music and vid (blame it on those who do the technical stuff, not them!) could never see these boys’ potentials. I mean, compared to the Korean guys who train for much longer time before debuting, I heard our XLR8 only did it for a year (quite not so sure, tho), and look how good they are now. People who overlook their capacity will definitely regret it sooner. AND please don’t forget that had the “foreigners” not caught Charice Pempengco’s performance on Youtube, her outstanding talent (which yar all bragging about right now) wouldn’t have been recognized properly, at all. It’s not that we Filipinos lack talent, looks, intelligence, etc., that we’ve become so left behind by our Asian neighbors. We just lack DISCERNMENT. LOTS OF IT. Madami na tayong nasayang, actually. If you look at some boygroups in Japan (which I am more familiar with), Aki is even way better-looking and more talented than many of them. And that’s just for example. Hope you fellow Filipinos think more about where you’ll give your loyalty to. I mean, even if those foreign celebrities go here and sign your cds and sing for you and whatnot, in the end you’re still STRANGERS to them. Even if you’re loving ‘em and their “original” music to death, like they’ll give a damn, right? I’m also a fangirl, but because the truth hurts so much, the appearance of XLR8 is good sign for me. They’re new and not yet as great as the pop experts in Korea, but isn’t that all the more reason they need NOONAS like us to support ‘em? Oh, well… This has been quite a long post. I think I just love Aki. XP

they just don’t get it…….
let them be…. they just had been hooked to kpop so they still don’t understand the talents of these guys…
I’m proud to have the Filipino blood in me even though not purely Filipino, and I love how this guys showed the Pinoys that they got what it takes to sing and groove like those of super junior and some other groups….
To tell honestly, when I watched these guys perform during their debut I was impressed and I almost mistaken them as a Korean boy band not until I heard the lyrics….
hahaha……
so to those bashers please don’t underestimate too early, they had just released thier debut song. They have more to show you guys and I was not disappointed to see a P-pop band even though I’m Korean half Fil..
I have lived on Korea and have seen countless K-pop bands..
and when I returned here I saw them…
It didn’t come to my senses that the Filipinos are yet again copying another famous thing….haha PEACE
No Offense for those who don’t like them…
but for me you are just scared that these boys will banish the aura of those kpop bands here in the Philippines…. but I think that won’t happen coz these guys will most probably develop their own concept that will suite the taste of the Filipinos…. haha….
??? ??!!!
PEACE TO THE PHILIPPINES!!!

Comment by minori14 | April 21, 2010
I actually have mixed feelings for this.
I initially felt disturbed. Racial issues popped in my head. I mistook them as a real K-pop boy band. But no, they’re Filipinos. I hope this has got nothing to do with chinky eyes/white skin/lean body/*insert Korean trait here*!!
I have to give credit for this boys to actually put up their foot to stardom. Believe me it’s not easy for them to proclaim that they will be somehow the ‘kpop’ in the Philippines. I do hope they have foreseen that doing this, they will be eventually be labeled as ‘copycats’ by avid Pinoy K-pop fans, like what other people have posted above this page.
It’s fair enough to reckon that this boy band was created because of pop culture. Plus, we Filipinos always love to have something great from our own land. As fellow Filipinos, we should at least give them respect. If you don’t like it, we don’t have to trash them. If you do, then that’s good.
Anyway, I’ve heard their voices. I watched their dances as shown in a video above. So far, I’m impressed, but I’m still cautious about them. I’ll try to keep my mind open as possible, as much as I don’t like this idea.
Ummm.. I also got a feeling that they’d be cooler or more original *I guess* if they’re under ‘rnb’ or ‘hiphop’ *for a second I thought they sounded like Git Fresh* XXXD Just saying though, forget this last paragraph
I will be waiting for something more of them. I hope they will do better. They better not FAIL if they plan to go mainstream to pop culture.

teka nga teka nga. san ba nagsimula ang mga BOY BAND??? dba sa WESTERNERS??? EWAN KO KUNG NAAALALA NYO PA PERO MERONG WESTLIFE, BACKSTREET BOYS and NSYNC NUNG ARAW. Then there was JPOP. hindi gaanong sumikat. more like sa anime natuon ang attention ng tao with regard to Japan. and now here’s KPOP. grabe tau sa pagtangkilik nito. AND NOW SASABIHIN NYO NA WALA TAYONG KARAPATAN MAGKAROON NG SARILI NATIN??? HUH??? maxado na kxe kayong nagpapadala jn sa COLONIAL MENTALITY eh.
AT OO UUNLAD TAYO kung SUSUPORTAHAN NATIN ANG ATIN.
ang problema kxe sa mga pilipino pagdating sa sariling bansa walang tiwala eh. KAYA HINDI UMUUNLAD ANG PILIPINAS, dahil nga ganyan, hindi natin tinatangkilik ang sariling atin. walang tiwala. laging nilalait ang sariling atin. laging ibinababa.
(I capitalize for EMPHASIS. Im not mad. some might misunderstand.)
Comment by ran | April 21, 2010
@ RAN – ditto.
But I have to be honest. There is no escape for fellow Filipinos to think that XLR8 are copying the K-POP scene. What makes me hesitate to give my full support for XLR8 is that the boys give off the ‘Korean’ feel. Though, it may be coincidental.. since the Philippines is multicultural to begin with.
Let’s just see what will come out of them before we give our criticisms.

Comment by sarah anariza noma | April 29, 2010
Ang problema kase sa mga Filipino na ayaw sa OPM (yung mga nagsabi na ayaw sa kahit anong Pinoy music, etc), may bias against na kaagad.
Kapag na-inspire ang Pinoy sa isang foreign trend, wala na kagad originality.
Kapag may trend naman sa atin na iba sa ibang bansa (ballads, novelty songs), baduy naman kagad.
Ang nakakalungkot, marami namang mga taga-ibang bansa na natutuwa at naaappreciate ang music natin. Ang MYMP, napapatugtog sa Korea. Si Christian Bautista, kung saan saang Asian countries sumisikat. Kahit ang XLR8, pinuri ng ilang Kpop fans na di Filipino.
And yes, uunlad ang Pilipinas kung wala ang mga Pilipinong tulad nyo na naniniwalang lahat na lang na gawin ng Pilipinas ay pangit.

Comment by yuuni.. | June 27, 2010
“For You” is one of my personal favorites sa songs ng XLR8 composed by VEHNEE SATURNO. Ewan ko na lang sa mga mga nagcomment dyan na wala daw originality. Ginaya lang naman ng J-Pop ang American Pop, ginaya lang ng K-Pop ang J-pop, e may talent din ang Pinoy kaya nagbuo na din ng Pop group. What’s wrong with that? If you see them as gaya gaya sa K-pop idols, well it’s just a start, wala namang papansin sa kanila kung ang porma nila nakBarong tagalog eh. Wait na lang kayo kasi madami na din silang sa fans sa ibang bansa. Daig pa ang mga Pilipino. Taga ibang bansa pa ang sumusuporta sa kanila, sila okay na na mapanood sila sa youtube. Eh tayo na andito na..tsk tsk tsk.. Nakakahiya naman ang ibang Pilipino, mas gusto pa mga Korean. Yes that’s right, pumunta na lang kayo Korea and doon na tumira, baka umunlad pa ang music industry dito sa Pilipinas kung puro ang matitira eh mga willing sumuporta sa kapwa nila Pinoy.

when shall you show imortal. Suggestion ABS-CBN know how to treasure and keep your talents. Angel locsin is your jewel dont let her go. It seems all her projects were delayed. Are you using her? Look she is the sexiest woman in the philippines. A bankable commercial and product endorser. Prove ABS that you are worth for our loyalty. Angel is a big loss to GMA. One day you will realize that angel locsin is your biggest lost ever. Be honest ABS and stop being a user.
