Carly Rae Jepsen Brings ‘The Dedicted Tour’ to Manila

Pop star Carly Rae Jepsen will be bringing her ‘The Dedicated Tour’ to Manila on October 23 at the New Frontier Theater. Tickets will be on-sale starting August 31 via TicketNet.com.ph and at all TicketNet outlets nationwide. Presented by concert promoter Wilbros Live.

Fans can expect a night full of hits as Carly Rae Jepsen will be performing her chart-topping songs, including “Cut to the Feeling”, “Call Me Maybe”, “Party for One”, “I Really Like You”, “Boy Problems”, “Emotion”, “Run Away with Me” and many more.

After Carly Rae Jepsen released her critically acclaimed album E·MO·TION in 2015, it became “a modern touchstone for a new crop of pop-leaning artists and legacy acts,” as NPR noted, adding “the blast radius of E•MO•TION is expansive.” The album also inspired an abundance of memes — extending the cultural cachet that Jepsen earned from the ubiquity of her Grammy-nominated blockbuster hit “Call Me Maybe” (from her U.S debut album Kiss), which not only climbed to No. 1 on the iTunes Singles charts in over 47 countries, sold over 20 million singles worldwide, and was certified Diamond in the U.S., but was referenced by everyone from former secretary-of-state Colin Powell to Cookie Monster.

Ruru Madrid "Nawawala"?!

Actually he is not lost, rather he just released his first solo single entitled "Nawawala" under GMA Music. Composed by  Kettle Mata, Roger Alcantara and Enzo Villegas, the song is perfect for those who loves "hugot" music which has been very popular for the new generation.

Fresh from his series "Toda One I Love," Ruru now focuses on honing his talent in singing which was somehow eclipsed by the projects he had in recent years. We also saw the transformation of Ruru from a teen star into a sophisticated man who takes care of his body, learning new things, and doing things beyond his comfort zone.

He shares that when he looks at his pictures from years ago he would cringe on how he looked and his fashion style back then. By reading self-help books and learning improvement tips from a lot of experts, he eventually changed himself which also helped in improving in his craft and also his looks.
