After a trending red-carpet welcome as a returning Kapamilya, Regine Velasquez made her debut on “ASAP” over the weekend in a grand way, alongside fellow ABS-CBN stars in Sydney.
Velasquez, dubbed “Asia’s Songbird,” appeared emotional as she performed for the first time as an “ASAP” mainstay, singing her hits “Dadalhin” and “Pangako” — the latter with her husband, singer-songwriter Ogie Alcasid.
During the show’s closing at the ICC Sydney Theatre, Velasquez surprised fans as she joined in singing “Just Love,” the popular ABS-CBN Christmas song released in 2017.
The music veteran notably had a number of solo parts in the song, and effortlessly belted a climactic note to cheers from the audience, as seen in a video uploaded by fan Jeppy Paraiso.

Prior to her transfer to ABS-CBN, Velasquez had been the frequent main performer of the Christmas jingles of GMA-7, so the “Just Love” moment on stage is remarkable, especially for long-time fans of the singer.
During a press conference after her ABS-CBN contract-signing last week, Velasquez said that if offered, she would be willing to have a part in the 2018 Christmas theme song of the Kapamilya network.
