Marcelito Pomoy to meet idol Celine Dion

After wowing the audience of “The Ellen Show” with his unique vocals, “Pilipinas Got Talent” Season 2 Grand Winner Marcelito Pomoy is set to meet his idol Celine Dion.

In an interview on “Magandang Buhay” on Thursday, Pomoy shared that his meeting with Dion was a gift from host Ellen DeGeneres.

“Sabi niya sa akin, tutal paborito mo si Celine Dion, Celine Dion is my friend, tinawagan ko siya na papuntahin ka sa concert niya,” he recounted.

“Sabi sa akin papuntahin ka sa concert niya, manood at baka maka-duet pa. Then after noon mag-backstage kayo para mag-meeting kayo,” he said, adding that their meeting might happen in January next year.

Pomoy was able to share his life story and in a guest appearance at “The Ellen Show” last week.

He performed his “duet” of Andrea Bocelli and Celine Dion’s “The Prayer” and Disney classic “Beauty and the Beast.”

After winning the second season of “Pilipinas Got Talent” in 2011, he released two studio albums – “Split” in 2013 and “Duet Yourself” in 2016.   /muf
