<p>“Believe,” began Belle Mariano in her Instagram post a couple of days after her sold-out <em>Believe</em> concert. “I never imagined that my dreams would come to life. What once was just a wish, came true.”</p><p>Belle went on to thank all those who supported her in her journey as an artist. </p><p>“Thank you to everyone who believed in me and continues to: to my ABS-CBN family, the directors, prod and crew of ‘Believe’ concert, my family, friends, and those who support me. I wouldn’t be here without you all. I love you and I hope I was able to inspire you to believe in yourself,” she continued. “To all the dreamers out there, keep believing.”</p><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-2" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/C9b19maTfYm/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fent-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A2%2C%22os%22%3A1518100.5%2C%22ls%22%3A1053561.8999999762%2C%22le%22%3A1053563.8000000715%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="881" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-2" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>Bubblies, or the fans of Belle, flocked to The Theatre at Solaire last July 13 for Belle’s third solo concert and her second live concert. Fan-made merchandise like posters and lights were prepared by the Bubblies and distributed to the audience to show their love and support. </p><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/Believe-Concert-5.jpg" style="width:500px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><p>Just like her Beloved concert and Somber album launch, tickets to her Believe concert sold out within days of dropping, a testament to her growing number of supporters. The concert was also streamed live via iWantTFC for those at home and abroad.</p><p>Aside from sharing the same title as her third album, the concert was extra special because it doubled as her belated birthday celebration. Belle turned 22 last June 10. </p><div><a href="https://push.abs-cbn.com/2024/6/10/belle-mariano-marks-22nd-birthday-with-a-pictorial-2122" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong><u>READ: Belle Mariano marks 22nd birthday with a pictorial</u></strong></a></div><p>Present in the audience were Belle’s Can’t Buy Me Love co-stars Kaila Estrada, Gello Marquez, and Anthony Jennings, among others. Also spotted were ABS-CBN bosses Carlo Katigbak, Cory Vidanes, and Laurenti Dyogi. Family and friends were also in attendance. Of course, her love team partner Donny Pangilinan also came to support her. </p><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/Believe-Concert-6.jpg" style="width:500px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><p>While waiting, fans were treated to a pre-show hosted by Aiyana Perlas and Jae Miranda. They were also serenaded by the soothing vocals of Shanaia Gomez and Rob Blackburn. </p><p>Belle’s entrance was nothing short of magical, descending onto the stage while seated on a crescent moon. </p><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/Believe-Concert-7.jpg" style="width:500px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><p>For her opening act, she performed Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso” and Jungkook’s “Standing Next To You” with dance group A-Team.</p><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/Believe-Concert-8.jpg" style="width:500px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><p>For her second set, Belle slowed it down with Billie Eilish’s “What Was I Made For”, followed by “I, Save Me” from her latest album. </p><p>Moira Dela Torre joined her onstage, and the two did a duet of “We &amp; Us” and “Little World Changer”, the latter being a song that Moira wrote and is also part of Belle’s album. </p><p>“I’ve always dreamed to work with you and to collab with you,” Belle told her ‘Ate’ Moira. </p><p>The closeness of the two singers was evident onstage, with the two sharing both light-hearted banter and serious life advice. </p><p>“It’s very rare to find people that will make you feel safe, safe enough to be yourself. You can’t really change the world when you don’t feel safe,” Moira told Belle. “And so I hope you feel safe wherever you are. I hope you know you are loved and celebrated and that God loves you. I hope that is something you will never forget.” </p><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/Believe-Concert-3.jpg" style="width:500px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><p>The next guest to join Belle on stage was none other than Martin Nievera. They sang a duet of “Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic” by The Police. Afterwards, Martin dubbed Belle with a new title. </p><p>“With the power bestowed upon me, I would like to officially give you a title. Of the many that you will be getting, we want to call you the NGCP: ‘New Gen Concert Princess’,” said the Concert King. “Be the princess, aim for the queen. You got it?”</p><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/Believe-Concert-9.jpg" style="width:500px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><p>Belle went on to perform “Pakisagot” and “Apelyido”, two more tracks from her Believe album. </p><p>For her next set, Belle brought out her sexy side as she did a duet of “B.A.D” with Denise Julia, followed by Tyla’s “Truth or Dare” and her own track, “Biglaan”. </p><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/Believe-Concert-4.jpg" style="width:500px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><p>The next guest of the night was the highlight for all Bubblies. All lights went off and the theater went pitch-black, only to turn on and reveal Donny walking down the aisle towards Belle. </p><p>DonBelle fans cheered as Donny and Belle performed their take on the iconic choreography of “(I’ve Had) The Time of My Life” from the classic film, Dirty Dancing. </p><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/Believe-Concert-10.jpg" style="width:500px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><p>What followed next was a heartwarming trip down memory lane. The two shared an easy banter on stage, to the delight of all their fans. Only for Belle, Donny played the piano live to accompany Belle and himself singing all the songs from their projects together. </p><p>“Never ko ‘tong ginagawa live, pero para sa’yo gagawin ko ‘to,” he told Belle.</p><p>Clips from their shows and movies also flashed on the screen, highlighting the fans’ favorite scenes. They sang “He’s Into Her” from their first series He’s Into Her,  “For Your Eyes Only” from Love Is Color Blind, “Kahit Na, Kahit Pa” and “Huwag Muna Tayong Umuwi” from An Inconvenient Love, and “You’ll Be Safe Here” from their hit series Can’t Buy Me Love. </p><p>“First of all, gusto ko lang sabihin, congratulations sa’yo. Tignan mo naman ‘di ba, palaging sold out ‘yung crowd mo,” he told her.</p><p>To the crowd, he said: “Maraming salamat sa pagpunta dito, sa pagsuporta kay Tink.”</p><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/Believe-Concert-1.jpg" style="width:500px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><p>To cap off the evening, Belle sang “Bugambilya”, a track from her Somber album, which reportedly hit over 1 billion views on TikTok already. </p><p>For her grand finale, Belle struck the audience speechless with a heart-stopping aerial silks routine. With strength and grace, Belle performed aerial gymnastics in mid-air. </p><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/Believe-Concert-11.jpg" style="width:500px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><p>It was definitely a night to remember, with Belle pushing her boundaries as an artist and performer. She also worked hard behind the scenes as the show’s creative producer. </p><p>On her Instagram page, Belle posted some choice clips from her concert. </p><p>“Still over the moon! Here are some bts clips from the ‘Believe’ concert,” she shared.</p><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-0" src="https://www.instagram.com/reel/C9gynQ_JaKS/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fent-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A1054023.3999999762%2C%22ls%22%3A1053561.8999999762%2C%22le%22%3A1053563.8000000715%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="881" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-0" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>For those who want to relive the evening or get some exclusive info on what went on behind the scenes, sign up to be a Super Kapamilya at @abscbnentertainment, the official YouTube channel of ABS-CBN Entertainment. </p><p>Just go to <a href="https://bit.ly/SuperKapamilyaBELLElulu" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><u><em>https://bit.ly/SuperKapamilyaBELLElulu</em></u></a> and get insider access to “BELLElulu for Belle Mariano: Insider Access to ‘Believe’, the 24-hour Concert Prep Coverage” featuring Milo Elmido Jr.</p>
