Stellar guests in ‘Probinsyano’s’ musical merrymaking
Coco Martin with the show’s young stars
Ricardo “Cardo” Dalisay’s thousands of supporters showed up at the Araneta Coliseum to join in the first anniversary celebration of the top-rating action-drama series, “FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano.”
Cardo is Coco Martin’s well-loved character in the series that also features Susan Roces, Eddie Garcia, Albert Martinez, Agot Isidro, Pepe Herrera, McNeal “Awra” Briguela and Simon “Onyok” Pineda.
The event on Oct. 8, “FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano: Isang Pamilya Tayo the Anniversary Concert,” was a gathering of ABS-CBN’s biggest stars. Coco also celebrated his birthday that night. He paid tribute to the late action star Fernando Poe Jr. with his version of the latter’s favorite song, “Doon Lang.”
Ogie Alcasid, Kyla, Ayen Munji-Laurel and Vina Morales took the crowd on a trip down memory lane by performing the theme songs of Coco’s series in ABS-CBN. Gary Valenciano sang “Huwag Ka Nang Umiyak,” the official theme song of “FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano.”
The audience danced with Yassi Pressman, Maja Salvador and Bela Padilla, Coco’s leading ladies in the series.
Kapamilya loveteams James Reid and Nadine Lustre (JaDine), Elmo Magalona and Janella Salvador (ElNella) and McCoy de Leon and Elisse Joson (McLisse) performed song numbers that made the crowd swoon.
The “kilig fest” continued with the production number of Angel Locsin, Zanjoe Marudo, and Sam Milby, stars of Star Cinema’s latest offering, “The Third Party.”

“It’s Showtime” host Vice Ganda and the show’s very own Awra Briguela had the crowd in stitches with their stand-up comedy act.
The show concluded with the cast thanking supporters for the unwavering support.
