As expected, Darren Espanto did not disappoint when he stepped on the stage of China's “Singer 2019” for a special performance during its finale.

Aired last Thursday, Espanto joined Russian singer Polina Gagarina as well as Kazakhstani child singer Daneliya Tuleshova and Chinese rapper Air as they all belted out “We Are the World.”

Espanto shared a short clip of their performance on his Instagram page, which immediately generated raves from his followers.

Prior to flying to China, Espanto told ABS-CBN News how excited he was to be appearing on arguably the most popular singing competition in the Asian country.

“I’m very happy na napili po ako to guest to sing sa finals ng 'Singer' in China. The first time na narinig ko po 'yung news, na-excite po ako na kinabahan and I had mixed emotions. Pero mostly happy,” he said.

Espanto said he went to China three months ago to meet the director and the team behind “Singer.”

“'Yung mga taga China po, they contacted me through my record label and they asked if I could guest nga po. Actually I went there and I got to meet the director and the team behind it. They asked me to sing a few songs din po. Nagulat po ako na a week and a half ago, they said na mag-guest nga daw po ako sa finals,” he said.

Espanto is not the first Filipino to step on the stage of the talent competition.

Last year, KZ Tandingan made waves when she joined the show as one of its contestants.
