Freeman Cebu Entertainment

Take two for Tracy Maureen Perez

STAR CIRCUIT - Ricky L. Calderon - The Freeman

It turned out to be one big musical extravangaza as a powerhouse ensemble of entertainers, led by Sharon Cuneta, Rivermaya, Kyla and Kuh Ledesma serenaded some 70,000 supporters of Vice President Leni Robredo on Friday at Paglaum Stadium in Bacolod City.

Curtismith, Mayonnaise, Gracenote, Tippy Dos Santos, Gab Valenciano, Janina Vela, The Company, DJ Joey, and Kay Leni Tayo singers Jeli Mateo, Justine Pena, and Nica del Rosario also provided entertainment during the biggest gathering of Robredo supporters since the campaign started.

Actors Edu Manzano, Joel Torre, Ronnie Lazaro, Nikki Valdez and Agot Isidro, and showbiz personality Ogie Diaz, with his YouTube channel co-hosts Mama Loi and Dyosa Pockoh, also went onstage to express support for VP Leni and her running mate Kiko Pangilinan, and the rest in their slate.

Negros Occidental provincial administrator Rayfrando Diaz reported that the crowd inside the Paglaum Stadium and surrounding areas was estimated at 70,000. It eclipsed the previous mark of almost 50,000 attendees set in General Trias, Cavite.

Robredo’s stops in Iloilo and Tandag gathered around 40,000, and 20,000 supporters, respectively, while thousands of supporters also attended her sorties in Mindoro and Romblon.

More than 100,000 attended Robredo’s various gatherings in Negros Occidental on Friday, attracting a crowd of 20,000 supporters in Sagay City. The Vice President also made stops in San Carlos City, Kabankalan City, La Carlota City, Binalbagan and Hinigaran, where she drew a total of 20,000 supporters.

The hashtag #BacolodIsPink trended as No. 1 locally and worldwide on Twitter while #MASSKARApatDapatLeniKiko and #NegOccIsPink landed in No. 3 and No. 4, respectively.

The overwhelming crowd support for Robredo in Bacolod came after she topped both Google Trends and Facebook Analytics.

From Feb. 5 to March 2, Robredo led Google Trends with an aggregate score of 107 from searches using the keywords “Leni” and “Robredo” and from positive engagements, way ahead of her rival Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr.

Google Trends has been successful in predicting the outcomes of latest elections in the United States, Greece, Spain, Germany and Brazil.

Robredo also took a five-point lead over Marcos this month when it comes to Facebook score, which helps measure potential for people becoming voters of a certain candidate. Robredo currently has 8 million engagements over her rival’s 7.5 million.

The Vice President is running on the platform of “Oplan Angat Agad”, which is focused on employment, health and education.

She also wants to assure that at least one family member is receiving a monthly salary while those who lost their jobs will get a three-month financial assistance while looking for employment.

When it comes to health, Robredo has committed to provide each and every family with a free doctor and to make health care affordable for all Filipinos. She also aims to provide quality education to students that would help them secure their dream jobs in the future.

Netflix confirms ‘Vikings Valhalla’ Seasons 2 & 3

Netflix has announced a second and third season of “Vikings: Valhalla.” Production of season two has wrapped, with the series expected to return to audiences around the world in 2023.

“Valhalla” Season 1 premiered February 25 and has since made it to the Top 10 in 90 countries. The series garnered 80.5 million hours viewed during its first two days the week prior bringing it to an impressive 194 million hours viewed in its first nine days.

Jeb Stuart, “Vikings: Valhalla” creator, showrunner, and executive producer said, “Thank you to the millions of you who have watched (and rewatched!) Season One.  The numbers have been mind-boggling and beyond my wildest expectations. While the storylines for Leif, Freydis, Harald, Olaf, Canute and the rest of our amazing cast are secret, I can say without hesitation that their journeys will be even more epic than what you’ve seen so far. SKÅL!!!”

“Vikings: Valhalla” Season 1 chronicles the heroic adventures of some of the most famous Vikings who ever lived — the legendary explorer Leif Eriksson (Sam Corlett), his fiery and headstrong sister Freydis Eriksdotter (Frida Gustavsson), and the ambitious Nordic prince Harald Sigurdsson (Leo Suter).

As tensions between the Vikings and the English royals reach a bloody breaking point and as the Vikings themselves clash over their conflicting Christian and pagan beliefs, these three Vikings begin an epic journey that will take them across oceans and through battlefields, from Kattegat to England and beyond, as they fight for survival and glory.
