>Ogie (hilariously dressed like a hotbabe) did a

>@ Narito Ako At Kailangan Kita Fused!!! - a sort of

>@ Regine's solo number- her Love Me Again was

>As a whole, the show was so flawlessly carried out. As

>there are many of them- Zsa ZSa Padilla & Karylle,
>Richard & Lucy, Judy Ann Santos, Jaya, Bobby Andrews,
>Gina Alajar & German Moreno among others. It was fun
