Angpau [hong bao] all around me! This was an extra-special Media Appreciation and Chinese New Year celebration, welcoming 2020!
A huge smile? This can only mean that I have another fun hosting gig! Drove from Vegas to California only for Spotlight Media Productions!
It's been such a huge blessing to be a sought-after events and multimedia personality in the Philippines, but an even mightier one that I get to do it all around the United States of America too!
Here's a look back at the Media Appreciation Night by the Queen of the Asian / Filipino-American community in Orange County, California, the one and only Pen De Leon Manahan, a medical professional and respected entrepreneur. But first... some of my videos of this splendid fete! My Chinese song number... It was a celebration of Chinese New Year, after all...
And lastly, a voice-over video only. You can tell how much I love doing my voice-overs because they help me chase the pre-show jitters away. Yes, more than a decade as a professional host and I still have them butterflies...
Spotlight Media Productions, Ms Pen's newest venture, held an unforgettable Media Appreciation Night in her Bar and Grill, Manila Kusina located at Mission Viejo, California!
With the lovely Miss Philippines USA 2019 winners and candidates...
And the best part was that everyone was handed out our own little money packets called angpau [hongbao] by the generous Miss Pen De Leon Manahan... highly-appreciated money rewards!
Big, big smiles for everyone onstage and on the Spotlight! Thank you so much for your generosity, Miss Pen!
This is one of my most favorite shots! With Joseph, Pen De Leon Manahan, Lou Razon. Photo taken by Spotlight Media official photographers...
The "Oh what is that" Pose... LOL!
Honored to co-host with Orange County's best singer-comedian, Joseph Gelito, who is also one of the in-house talents of the Manila Kusina Grill Karaoke and Sing-along performance stage!
Holy Humor. Joseph, Josephine (Ms. Pen's real name), and Mary! You can dub us the Holy Family of OC!
Joseph is a natural all-around entertainer! And I got a lot of tips from him in how to ask for more tips! You can see that he is really so good at it... Lol.
My haughty, surly expression that goes... "Look I got some money... bleh!"
With one of the friendliest and sweetest members of the Media, Kuya Bobby Crisostomo who also recently celebrated his birthday... Happy Birthday po! God bless you always and keep you safe and healthy always!
And now the "class photo" pose with the whole California Media gang! 3...2...1... Cheeeeeese!
