The Philippines is actually the final stop of the American Idol Tour and this is also the first time for the country to be a part of the said tour.
The Top 11 Finalists of American Idol Season 10 Scotty McCreery, Thia Megia, Stefano Langone, Haley Reinhart, Jacob Lusk, Naima Adedapo, James Durbin, Casey Abrams, Paul McDonald, Lauren Alaina and Pia Toscano will perform live at the Smart Araneta Coliseum on September 20 and 21. They will also be visiting the Ayala Malls for fans meet and greet.
Last night September 17, 2011, four of the Top 11 AI finalists Scotty McCreery, Stefano Langone, Pia Toscano and our very own Thia Megia had a guest appearance at GMA-7's "Manny Many Prizes", they had some bonding moment with World Boxing Champion Manny Pacquiao and it seemed that Scotty and Stefano were big fans of our "Pambansang Kamao". All four of them were given with the Team Pacquiao Jackets.
Thia Megia who is a half Pinay were ask to sing a duet with Manny Pacquiao but she doesn't know any Tagalog songs, she were ask to sing any song with Manny but neither the boxing champ know any other songs, so Manny Pacquiao serenaded Thia his rendition of "Sometimes When We Touch" and promise, that was so awkward, I don't even wanna look at the television set while it was happening.
