<p>The Star Magical Prom 2026, held on Friday, June 26, was themed &quot;The Future.&quot; And it was a fitting concept for the former child stars who graced the event, now all grown up and entering a whole new era. They walked the Infinity Runway not as little kids anymore but as confident stars worthy of the spotlight.</p><p>Check out their photos from the futuristic prom night! </p><p>Jana Agoncillo, who headlined &quot;Ningning&quot; at just around five years old in 2015, had the honor of opening the Infinity Runway, proving once again why she&#x27;s one of Star Magic&#x27;s brightest young style icons. She turned the venue into her own fashion universe in a white number with feathered details. Less is really more. </p><p>Krystal Mejes, who finished as Second Big Placer in the latest &quot;<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/pinoy-big-brother-collab" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Pinoy Big Brother</strong></a>&quot; season, lived up to her name as she sparkled in a black-and-silver sequin masterpiece. Krystal also got the spotlight over the interview corner with hosts Ralph de Leon and Shanaia Gomez, where she shared a piece of advice for Star Magic&#x27;s newest artists, saying the secret to shining bright is to always remain genuine. She would also receive two major awards, including the Prom Princess recognition. </p><p>Heart Ramos, who gained fame as a child actress for starring in &quot;My Dear Heart&quot; (2017), went for a playful, intergalactic aesthetic in a metallic pink mini dress complete with sculptural shoulders, glossy leggings, and white ankle boots, looking like a pop princess straight out of a robotic video game.</p><p>But while others leaned into metallics and neon hues, Chunsa Jung picked a prisitne ivory gown with a bow neckline. Marc Santiago likewise kept things clean and commanding, but with a monochromatic black OOTN. </p><p>You know Miguel Vergara is all grown up when he arrived at the prom with a date—his fellow &quot;<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/pinoy-big-brother-collab-v2" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>PBB Collab 2.0</strong></a>&quot; ex-housemate, Eliza Borromeo.</p><p>And who better to close the Infinity Runway than former &quot;Goin&#x27; Bulilit&quot; comedienne and now-dubbed Gen Z Total Performer Alexa Ilacad? She served pure starcore energy in a crystal-drenched illusion gown with shimmering fringe. And as the last edition&#x27;s Prom Queen, all eyes were on the actress as she had the honor of passing on the coveted crown to this year&#x27;s Prom King and Queen.</p><p>Re-watch the Star Magical Prom 2026 on the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@starmagicphils" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Star Magic YouTube channel</strong></a> and <a href="https://app.iwanttfc.com/dFR6MWHAcVb" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>iWant</strong></a>.</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>More on this story:</strong></div><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/2026/6/27/memory-files-photos-of-the-pbb-collab-ex-housemates-from-the-futuristic-star-magical-prom-2026-0011" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Memory Files: Photos of the “PBB Collab” ex-housemates from the futuristic Star Magical Prom 2026</strong></a></div><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/2026/6/26/downloading-more-kilig-here-s-access-to-your-fave-loveteams-star-magical-prom-2026-photos-2317" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Downloading more kilig: Here’s access to your fave loveteams’ Star Magical Prom 2026 photos</strong></a></div><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/2026/6/26/written-in-the-stars-jmfyang-seals-the-evening-as-prom-king-and-queen-of-star-magical-prom-2026-2139" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Written in the stars: JMFyang seals the evening as PROM KING AND QUEEN of Star Magical Prom 2026</strong></a></div><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/2026/6/26/status-iconic-reign-and-river-are-the-metro-best-dressed-at-star-magical-prom-2026-2123" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Status: ICONIC!
