While most of Ice Seguerra’s followers found his black-and-white poster for his birthday concert funny, there were those who were bothered by it, saying it’s “not cool.”
The poster includes a half-body photo of the singer with the concert details placed at the bottom-middle part, as seen on Seguerra’s Instagram page on Saturday, July 20.
“See you in SEPTEMBER, BIDYOKE FRIENDS!” he said in the caption, adding a dove emoji which apparently makes the post similar to obituaries and posthumous tributes on social media.

This was taken lightly and was just laughed off by some including director Paolo Valenciano, even tagging his dad Gary Valenciano who also shared a similar poster earlier.

“Muntik na ako mag-RIP (rest in peace), ” one @dotie18 commented along with a laughing face emoji.

On the other hand, some were dismayed and disapproved of how the event was promoted through a black-and-white poster. Seguerra did not immediately respond to the comments.
“Not cool,” @queen_lea22 wrote.
“Knock on wood. Kinabahan ako du’n,” Instagram user @c_bem21 said.
“I honestly think the merch isn’t the best idea,” one @_a.n.i.e_02 said.
