Among those who were present to celebrate with the actress-fashion personality was social media personality Tim Yap, who hosted the event and documented it through clips shared on his Instagram Stories.
In one of his videos, Evangelista, seated beside Escudero, can be seen wiping her tears while watching Valenciano sing “Kailangan Kita” and “Warrior Is a Child.”
Yap also disclosed in the caption that the songs were “specially chosen” by Escudero.
