<p>Just like what Martin Nievera said in the beginning of <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/asap"><u><em><strong>ASAP Natin ‘To</strong></em></u></a> episode on Sunday, October 2, it was indeed a party filled with enchanted voices and captivating performances as our favorite Kapamilya artists mesmerized us anew with their vocal and dancing talents.</p><p>Martin, Regine Velasquez-Alcasid, and Robi Domingo commenced the #MagicalASAP episode with their enthusiastic intro, teasing us on the exciting numbers that we should out for that afternoon. Former <strong>Pilipinas Got Talent</strong> finalist and magician Alakim kicked off the opening salvo with a playing cards trick and gave the spotlight to Kim Chiu, who stunned us in her flouncy purple dress as she did a little aerial hoop dance.</p><p>Regine, Klarisse de Guzman, and Zsa Zsa Padilla then emerged on the stage to sing “Illusion” by Imagination, which was followed by an exhilarating dance break from dancefloor hotties Jameson Blake, Jeremy Glinoga, Joao Constancia, and Jin Macapagal.</p><p>Ogie Alcasid started off his duet with Erik Santos of “Abracadabra” by Steve Miller Band, through attempting to do a simple magic trick. AC Bonifacio, Francine Diaz, and MNL48 got us smitten by their beauty and talent as they performed Little Mix’s “Black Magic”, while Darren Espanto proved that he’s indeed “D’ Total Performer” as he sang and danced to “Magic” by B.o.B.</p><p>The ravishing trio of Janine Berdin, Alexa Ilacad, and Sheena Belarmino then enticed us with rendition of “Circus” by Britney Spears, to which Chie Filomeno exhibited her sexy dance moves. Capping off the opening set were Enchong Dee and Martin, who were later on joined by the ASAP homies, as they made us bop to “Sometimes A Fantasy” by Billy Joel.</p><p>Aside from Alakim’s awesome magic tricks that he demonstrated in almost every part of the opening number, Kristel de Catalina and Jamaica Jornacion also amazed us with their breathtaking aerial dance routines.</p><p>After their segment was launched in the previous episode, Rockoustic Heartthrobs KD Estrada and KICE surely made a lot of girls (and girls at heart!) with their flawless mash-up of Jason Mraz’s “I’m Yours” and The Vamps’ “Oh Cecilia (Breaking My Heart).”</p><div><ivs-player data-ivs-key="06b9cac5decc13edae3497a22831561a" data-ivs-spid="3001384" data-ivs-vid="2267397"></ivs-player> <script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js" type="text/javascript"></script></div><p>Chinita Princess Kim Chiu then proved that she is indeed “ASAP’s Queen of the Dancefloor” via her fiery dance number. From one queen to another, “Queen of Hugot Songs” Moira Dela Torre then serenaded us with her LSS-inducing hit song “Babalik Sa’Yo,” which is also the OST of the well-loved Kapamilya primetime series <strong><u>2 Good 2 Be True</u></strong> topbilled by Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla.</p><div><iframe babalik="" height="360" sa="" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/eBO75JIJVeU" title="Fall in love with Moira" s="" width="640"></iframe></div><p>P-Pop girl group BINI took on the stage to encourage us to confidently be ourselves and be optimistic in life through their latest collaboration with fast-rising rapper Kritiko titled “B HU U R”.</p><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/4pCZoBr9JfU" title="BINI and Kritiko" s="" collab="" ASAP="" Natin="" width="640"></iframe></div><p>They were followed by the soothing performance of another group of talented and gorgeous young women comprised by Alexa, Belle Mariano, Maymay Entrata, and Anji Salvacion, who sang “Cool With You” by Jennifer Love Hewitt, “You Were Meant For Me” by Jewel, and “Sunny Came Home” by Shawn Colvin, together with veteran divas Zsa Zsa and Regine.</p><p>The ASAP family, of course, didn’t forget to pay tribute to one of its former regular performers and beloved ASAP Sessionistas, Ice Seguerra, as he marks his 35<sup>th</sup> anniversary in the industry this year.

But you know, talent, <em>dapat ‘yan ninu</em>-nurture. So, put in the work. And number two, <em>‘yong ulo n’yo huwag lilipad, dapat laging nasa lupa</em>.
