After releasing her debut single “Sakalam” with the Gigi Vibes band earlier this month and announcing her first major digital concert in December, singer Gigi de Lana received another blessing as she was chosen to sing the official theme song of the upcoming new drama series <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/viralscandal">Viral Scandal</a> “Nasa ‘Yo” produced by Jonathan Manalo of Star Music. The 26-year-old singer performed the theme song during the Viral Scandal virtual launch event held earlier this month.“Ang ganda nung song tapos binigay ko talaga yung best ko kasi first time ko kumanta ng theme song. Talagang bobonggahan ko ‘to! Maraming maraming salamat sa opportunity na maging part ng Viral kahit theme song lang.
