Fans of the iconic vocal group 98 Degrees are apt to rejoice.
After a long wait, the group is finally returning to Manila.
They are performing at the SM Mall of Asia Arena on May 30 and 31.
Nick Lachey, Jeff Timmons, Justin Jeffre and Drew Lachey, vowed to make a grand shindig out of it noting how much they have missed their fans here.
Jeff told us, “We’re quite excited for this one. Our Filipino fans were there for us since day one. We are more than ready to give them the best performance ever.”
Note that the Philippines was among the group’s first ever stops when they toured globally in 1999.
“I still remember the first time we visited Manila,” related Drew. “It was fun. We were awed with the reception we got.”
Justin vowed, “We promise to give you a performance to remember. This is us saying thank you for all the love and support you gave us through the years.”
He also shared a bit of trivia: “My brother was actually born in the Philippines on the day they (the American astronauts) landed in the moon, and I sort of feel like an extra special connection to that place.”
Nick maintained, “We will definitely perform all the songs you wanted to hear from us, including all the hits and a bunch of new ones, of course. I hope everyone will sing along with us.”
98 Degrees has sold over 10 million records, notching eight top 40 singles including their debut single “Invisible Man” peaking at No. 12, and “I Do (Cherish You)” peaking at No. 13.
The group has several top 5 hits as well: “Give Me Just One Night (Una Noche)”, “Because of You”, “The Hardest Thing”, and “Thank God I Found You.”
