- She asked the crowd if there were any delegates from her hometown and she was surprised as her teacher suddenly screamed from the patron area.
The 11th staging of Gabay Guro’s Teachers’ Fest was held at Mall of Asia Arena on Sunday, September 23. The Smart-PLDT advocacy project was attended by well-known artists such as Sharon Cuneta, Gabby Concepcion, Edu Manzano, Pops Fernandez, Regine Velasquez, Jed Madela, Christian Bautista, and many more.
Among the big names were MayMay Entrata and Edward Barber.
It was said that one of the most heartwarming moments during the event was when MayMay saw her former teacher among the more than 17,000 teachers that were at the Arena.
She and Edward were onstage when she asked if there are any delegates from Cagayan de Oro. Someone shouted from the patron side and it turned out to be one of the star’s former teachers.
