MANILA, Philippines -- Newly appointed EDSA People Power Commissioner Ogie Alcasid confirmed that Black Eyed Peas member Apl.de.ap will perform during the celebration of the 25th year anniversary of the EDSA People Power revolution on Feb. 25.
Alcasid announced so on Twitter last Feb. 20.
“Happy to announce that apl.de.ap has agreed to perform on February 25 for the 25th anniversary of edsa! Hope to see you all there!" read the post.
His announcement actually came a day late. Although not part of the organizing team, presidential sister, Kris Aquino, preempted Alcasid's announcement by a day, tweeting on Feb. 19, “Apl de Ap is flying in to perform specially for the event. Doing a 1 hr set! Winner!"
Aquino also divulged to her Twitter followers that she will be among the hosts of the show.
In any case, Alcasid detailed that the concert will be held at the People Power Monument on EDSA. The concert will start at 6 p.m. and will last until about midnight.
Only a week ago, Alcasid proudly declared in a press conference that the concert will be "star-studded" as he was able to convince the country’s three biggest networks to lend a number of their "exclusive" stars for the occasion. Among those he confirmed have agreed to perform at the event include his wife, singer-actress Regine Velazquez.
Meanwhile, not a few expect Pres. Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III, himself, to render a number at the event as he had obliged a couple of tunes during his inauguration party, June of last year.
