Last October, the TV’s newest darling Maine Mendoza managed to evade attention when she went to the Lifehouse concert in disguise. But last night, at the same venue, the Mall of Asia (MOA) Arena, Eat Bulaga’s Yaya Dub must have gotten a sense of how big a star she is right now when viewers shifted their attention to her at the end of Sam Smith‘s concert. (Sam Smith is the English singer-songwriter behind the hit Stay With Me.) Based on fans’ personal accounts, the crowd was chanting “Yaya Dub” and many were trying to take snapshots of and selfies with her.
Here are some photos and videos as shared on Instagram. You’ll see a cheerful Maine Mendoza doing her signature wacky poses in different angles to accommodate selfie requests. 🙂
