Today is the big day! Sarah Geronimo gets to share the stage with Jason Farol for his debut on ASAP! we arrive early to get our pretty on in the dressing room.
Jason got too meet many filipino stars including Charice Pempengco and Gary V. Gary V. had very nice compliments on Jason's voice and is a huge fan! Great things to hear from a national legend. We also caught a glimpse of his rehearsal and he can still dance like he was 20 years younger!

Practicing 'Me & Mrs. Jones" for the first time in the same room, this power ballad duo sounded great together. It was obvious this would be the performance of the weekly show and we can tell the entire ASAP staff was very excited to witness it.
Here's Me:
And now we wait....and wait.... and wait...9am....10am...11am....11:01am.....12pm.....1pm....1:15pm...........
1:45pm!!!! They're about to go on and we are rushed to the side of the ASAP stage. Jason's VTR starts to roll and he's talking in Tagalog!?! ooowow!
Overly eccentric pop-stars scream wildly for Sarah, but once Jason sang past the first verse all eyes were on him. So... Get This-- Hundreds of tweets simultaneously go out about Sarah's duet singer Jason Farol. I can confidently say he has won over many fans after a performance like that.
Sarah and Jason banter about his new album and future plans and upcoming shows and let people know where they can see him and how they can download his album (Jason also gave Sarah a nosebleed).

In case anyone has missed it,
Here's Gary V.
Immediately after the ASAP performance it was run straight to the Chill Out studio for an interview with Chill Out ASAP crew. Jason performed 2 of his songs on his album to the fans watching the live online stream.
Apparently Jason and I also have a habit of giving nosebleeds to everyone we talk to (I don't really understand the meaning behind that saying). The hosts of the show had a few laughs about the english-only speaking Jason- but he's learning!
2 shows done! Time to speed over to Pampanga for Jason's 3rd mall show in 3 days. But wait, we took a picture in front of ABS-CBN studios with this beautiful view behind us. Finely crafted stairs that lead up to glass doors, with amazing rails and a concrete wall on the sides;

1 hour before showtime and the seats are already starting to fill:

Shows over. This line is NUTS! Definitely the longest fan line of his mall tour and it took over an hour for him to meet each one!
Mandy Moore even flew in just for him!
After a few photos with loyal family members and a great security staff it was time to finally put a long day to rest.
Just kidding- One more photo with me:
Jason's off for the next 2 days so we decided to grab a drink in Makati and found a local band playing at a bar called Spicy Fingers. Amazing voices, amazing band, amazing energy.
Chaos, panic, pandemonium- my work here is done. Long fun day with an ocean full of memories and candy. Lets do another quote:
"Sometimes when I say 'I'm Okay", I want someone to look me in the eyes, hug me tight and say, 'I know you're not".
