IN PHOTOS: ABS-CBN Ball 2018 red carpet
MANILA, Philippines — Over 300 stars celebrated for a night of glamor and giving back at the ABS-CBN Ball 2018 held at the Makati Shangri-La on Saturday night.
Ex-lovers and former love team partners such as Daniel Matsunaga and Erich Gonzales, Diego Loyzaga and Sofia Andres, and Gretchen Ho and Robi Domingo, walked the red carpet solo. Although they play as lovers in "Ang Probinsyano," Coco Martin and Yassi Pressman also went separately to the ball.
While sophistication and couture took center stage on the red carpet, the evening marked the launch of collaborative efforts to relaunch Bantay Bata 163’s Children’s Village.
Vice Ganda introduced the advocacy dedicated to the Children’s Village in Norzagaray, Bulacan, which aims to provide immediate care and holistic healing for abused, exploited, and neglected children and help them build a better future for themselves through physical and psychological means in a structured, therapeutic family-like environment.
The ball also saw Maymay Entrata winning the Belo Beautiful Star of the Night, while Chienna Filomeno was named The Bar Next Generation Star.
Daniel Padilla and Gary Valenciano kicked off the celebration by singing “Girl From Ipanema/LOVE,” while Inigo Pascual and Billy Crawford hyped up the crowd with “Girls Like You.”
KZ Tandingan, Janine Berdin, and Yeng Constantino delivered show-stopping renditions of Aretha Franklin’s hits, while Martin Nievera, Jona, and John Arcilla performed a powerful medley of “Can You Feel The Love Tonight,” “Not While I’m Around,” and “You Raise Me Up.”
The ABS-CBN Ball was hosted by Boy Abunda, and graced by the network’s biggest stars, such as Judy Ann Santos-Agoncillo, Angel Locsin, Coco Martin, Vice Ganda, Anne Curtis, Sarah Geronimo, Kim Chiu, Erich Gonzales, Bea Alonzo, Jodi Sta.

Fans worldwide also shared the love and merriment as they tweeted non-stop about the event, pushing the official hashtag #ABSCBNBall2018 to the top of Twitter’s list.
