You need to stay tuned for the complete details! I’ll post the mechanics very soon. In the meantime, let’s get to know Richard Poon, Pokwang and Markki Stroem better, yes?
A certified platinum recording artist of MCA Universal, multi-awarded Richard Poon is known as the Philippines’ Big-Band Crooner. He’s best known for fusing his own unique touch to standards popularized by Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Matt Monroe and Paul Anka.
He can, however, belt out contemporary covers such as Avril Lavigne’s “Complicated,” Chaka Khan’s “Through the Fire”, Florida/T-Pain’s “Low”, Beyonce’s “Single Ladies” and “Irreplaceable”, Rihanna’s “Umbrella”, Sean Kingston’s “Beautiful Girls”, Jason Mraz’s “I’m Yours”, and most recently, Lady Gaga’s “Pokerface” and the Korean Wondergirl’s mega hit “Nobody”.
Talented and funny Pokwang, on the other hand, is a Filipina actress, TV host, singer, comedianne and impersonator. A former OFW, she later became a household name when she became a co-host of “Wowowee.” Now, she’s a mainstay host of “Pilipinas Win Na Win.” Pokwang is also notorious for impersonating actress Annabelle Rama, Dionisia Pacquiao (Manny Pacquiao’s mother), Melisa Cantiveros of Pinoy Big Brother: Double Up and Marlene Aguilar, the sister of singer Freddie Aguilar.
Prepare to listen to the vocal chops of Markki Stroem, too. A finalist of the first edition of Pilipinas Got Talent, this 22-year old Fil-Norwegian hottie plays the piano and writes songs. Most recently, fans spotted him during the Bench Body show during the Philippine Fashion Week.
