Purple Night with the Country’s Brightest Stars



July 19, 2013



I am fortunate to witness the OMG Awards Night 2013 last Friday night at MOA arena. Thank you Manila Concert Scene for the free Lower Box tickets. I took my friend Aizel to come with me to this very special event. OMG I’m excited to see my Boyfriend ENRIQUE GIL for the very first time!!!!! The bad news is that I don’t have a camera to capture every moment of the night.



As the sun was setting down, excited fans started to arrive at the venue. There was a purple carpet on the entrance of the arena. I wanted to walk through the purple carpet but it was for the VIPs only, we rather used the other entrance for the non-VIPs. We went upstairs to line up on our said section but a photobooth caught our attention. It’s free, so we had our pictures taken. After taking our printed pictures, we went straight to section 217 because Aizel said that it has the best spot on the lower box section. We met some new friends on the event and they are Mia and Mara. They were so easy to get along and we had so much fun with them.

We sat on our seats as we waited for the stars to come. The very first star we saw was Precious Lara Quigaman and her husband Marco Alcaras. She was stunning with her beautiful orange gown. Next on the list were the TV5’s rising stars such as Vin Abrenica, Sophie Albert, Albie Casino, Eula Caballero, John James Uy, Tuesday Vargas, Ritz Azul, and a lot more (sorry I don’t the names of the others). The Philippine Volcanoes were also there. These guys were making my night really hot (hahahaha). Bb. Pilipinas 2012 winners passed by on the side of the patron section together with the Jag models but Janine Tugonon was the only one I knowJ. I also notice Tippy (Sam Concepcion’s love team) walking on the side. Callalily also passed by. Oh, Ryzza Mae Dizon caught the attention of everybody as she entered the arena. She was really cute with her pink gown. As the stars were walking towards on our side, we were shouting their names and waving to them to get a smile back and a wave. Tuesday Vargas was really hilarious as she interacts with us about the food they were eating. Before the show started, I think Marian Rivera was the last artist I saw and I am not happy because my boyfriend still didn’t arrive by that time (hahaha).


                                       Gary Valenciano and Billy Crawford

The show has officially started. Gary Valenciano set the bar on high as he sang his song Hataw Na. After Gary V.’s song, next to perform was Billy Crawford!!!!!! We’re not expecting that so we went crazy because I also admire his hotness when it comes to dancing. They did a duet at the end of the prod. The masters of ceremony were Edu Manzano and Billy Crawford. I was seeing the Billy-Luis tandem on them but Luis is luis and Edu is Edu (sorry, I know I didn’t make sense on that one). They introduce Albie Casino and Eulla Caballero to present the 1st award. The event was full of flaws when it comes to technical but the show must go on no matter what. Love Radio’s Nicole Hyala and Partner, Papa Jack got the first 2 awards of the night. Barangay Ls bagged the award for the Best Radio Show. I’m sorry if I can’t mention every award for the night because there were too many. GMA 7’s Eat Bulaga, Vic Sotto, and Ryzza Mae Dizon got an award for the evening. Ryzza was the only one around during the night so she accepted the 2 awards on behalf. She was so cute!!! She’s like a stuffed toy that you want to take home to hug every night. ABS-CBN’s TV Patrol received an award during the night and Korina Sanchez accepted the award on behalf of the whole team. I also saw Tim Yap inside the VIPs and some familiar faces that I don’t remember their names.

There were a lot of absent awardees that made a lot of audience disappointed. Angel Locsin, Kim Chui, Xian Lim, Kathryn Bernardo, Toni Gonzaga to name a few who didn’t attend the awards night. Performances from Lovi Poe, Solenn Heusaff, Franco, Kjwan, Callalily, Kris Lawrence, Young JV, Sheng Belmonte, Julie Ann San Jose, Elmo Magalona, Yeng Constantino, Erik Santos and Charice were lined-up.

But wait there’s more. In every event we can’t really remove the what  we so-called “Filipino Time” on our system. Some celebrities came late as usual. Eugene Domingo and Vice Ganda just arrived on time to receive their awards which Ogie Alcasid a.k.a. Boy Pick-Up presented. While waiting for their names to be called-out, Vice took time to noticed and waved back to us when we were shouting his name (and we were so happy with that a little appreciation). Another celebrity who startled everybody was Mr. YUMMY himself Coco Martin!!!! Everybody weren’t expecting him because his award was already broadcast and Edu Manzano started saying “It’s never too late to accept his award” then he immediately welcomed Coco Martin to come up on stage. Everybody went wild after having a glimpse of this man. I suddenly forgot my purpose that day.

Enrique's sexy back
As the night goes deeper and award categories were slowly being scarce. A familiar looking guy came out from the back stage. His back was so sexy with his gray-silver tux. It took me a while to realize that he was my only purpose on that night. He’s the ONE AND ONLY ENRIQUE GIL!!!!! My body went crazy as hell, my throat almost exploded screaming his name and I suddenly didn’t care about everyone around me. Precious Lara Quigaman presented the next award for the breakthrough actor and actress of the year. Kathryn Bernardo got the award for breakthrough actress of the year and I don’t care because she wasn’t around. I started freaking out and when Precious announced Enrique Gil’s name for the breakthrough actor award. I was out of control, my throat was already begging me to stop shouting but I’m still shouting his name hoping to catch his attention. But I was overpowered by the Quenatics on the other side of the arena and I’m like the only person to shout his name on our side. haha. This was my first time to see his perfection up-close ( J ). My night was truly perfect, thank you for showing up! I’ll see you again really soon. He went down the stage, have pictures taken and take the exit backstage.

I started to calm down myself and enjoy the remaining hour of the night. Julie Ann San Jose and Elmo Magalona were the biggest winners of the night bagging each award on every category they were nominated. They really have that chemistry when they’re together no wonder why JuliElmo fans love them both. I also admire these two when it comes to singing. And oh, I forgot to mention Bea Binene, Victor Basa, Matteo Guidicelli, were also there. Another highlight of the night was Jon Santos portraying Vilma Santos. He was hilarious and we didn’t stop laughing during his set. Down to the very last award of the night (I forgot who was presenting and the title for the award. sorry). Marian Rivera was the last awardee of the night. I’m not a fan but I became one because she was really stunning with her white gown and she’s always looking at us giving a smile. That’s it!!!! Edu and Billy were already introducing the last performer of the night and officially closing the night. They introduced the international singing star Charice to end the night with her two hits “Louder” and “Pyramid”.

It was truly an amazing night. The whole arena was shining bright with the country’s stars. It only takes one special night to gather these amazing people in one area. I was really fortunate to witness this remarkable night. I took home all the amazing experience, memories, and excitement from the event. Thank you to all the people responsible for making these things possible!!! I love you all <3
