'Unang Hirit' host Anjo Pertierra just met Cristopher Diwata, the viral guy behind the iconic line, "What hafenm Vella.'
On Instagram, Anjo shared a hilarious clip of himself with Cristopher. While Anjo sings Christina Perri's "A Thousand Years," which was part of the official soundtrack of the "Twilight" films, Christopher can be heard delivering his iconic lines.
'A thousand years ft. Taylor,' Anjo wrote in the caption.
Cristopher guested in 'Unang Hirit' on Tuesday.
In 2013, the 35-year-old joined the "It's Showtime" segment "Kalokalike" as Taylor Lautner's "Twilight" character, Jacob Black.
Over a decade later, Cristopher's clip resurfaced, causing him to go viral again and stamp his place in the Philippine internet's hall of fame for memes.
TikTok users, as well as celebrities have been dubbing and recreating his iconic lines: "What hafen, Vella? Why you cryin' again? I know, vampire, right? Vampire will feyt to me."
Since then, Cristopher has collaborated with several brands and Filipino artists, such as Ben&Ben, SB19, and Sparkle star Michael Sager.

Anjo Yllana explains intricate past with Sheryl Cruz

Anjo Yllana has opened up about his intricate past with Sheryl Cruz, addressing their engagement that ultimately did not lead to marriage, and how they got back together after a decade or so to try and have another go. On Friday's episode of 'Fast Talk with Boy Abunda,' Anjo detailed his own reasons for backing out of their wedding. 'I broke up [with Sheryl] because natakot ako doon sa tito niya, si [Fernando Poe Jr.]. I had to talk to him daw bago kami magkatuluyan. So nagkaroon ako ng cold feet. Sabi ko baka bugbugin — gano'n naisip ko no'n kasi bata pa ako eh. First time kong magpapakasal. Sabi ko takot ako,' Anjo said. Anjo admitted that what Sheryl previously said in a 2024 Fast Talk interview was true, that he just suddenly ghosted her. 'Totoo 'yun na bigla na lang akong nawala kasi 'yun ang rason. Parang hindi ko pa yata kaya. Parang nabibigla lang ako dun sa sinabi kong pakasal na tayo,' he said. A decade after their initial breakup, fate brought Anjo and Sheryl together again on a set for a scene where Anjo was to be slapped. 'Akala ko, lahat nung nangyari, tapos na 'yon. 'Yung eksena, sasampalin ako," Anjo narrated. "'Pag [sampal] sa akin, ang lakas. As in, nilabas niya 'yung hinanakit niya na sampung taon,' Anjo said. He directly asked her if she was angry, and she confirmed it, making Anjo realize the bad impression he had left on her from their past. 'Kasi all the relationships I had, ang tingin ko doon parang laro-laro lang, gan'yan. 'Pag seryoso kayo, wala namang nangyayari. So 'yun, tinamaan ako doon. Nagbalikan kami,' Anjo said. The two tried to get together again, when Anjo split from his wife Jacqui Manzano sometime around 2015-2016, but their attempt at reconciliation also did not work out. "Sandali lang yon, but we were serious," Anjo told Tito Boy. When asked why it didn't work out, Anjo said 'Because she found out na I was still living with my kids at isang bubong lang kami ng mama ng kids. So naintindihan ko naman 'yun." Per Anjo, while he had already explained that he was no longer romantically involved with his children's mother and was only staying for the sake of his kids, Sheryl did not understand or accept the situation. 'So sa malamang may part three 'to,' he jokingly said. When asked what he has to say to Sheryl, Anjo began with a joke before saying, 'Seriously, if you are happy right now, I'm very happy for you. Alam ko marami kang pinagdaanan din. Kaya sana ito na. Kung naririnig ko kung totoo. Sana maging happy ka lang. Masaya na ako basta happy ka.' It was in May 2024 when Sheryl revealed her broken engagement with Anjo. "He asked for my hand in marriage, and I said yes," Sheryl said. "And then I found out na he got somebody pregnant, so kahit papaano 'di ba he broke my heart." — Carby Basina/LA, GMA Integrated News

SB19's Justin is giving 'Spirited Away' vibes in Jiufen Old Street photos

SB19 member Justin took to social media to share dreamy photos taken at Jiufen Old Street in Taiwan, a location that has long drawn comparisons to the enchanting world of Studio Ghibli's 'Spirited Away.' In the photos he shared on Instagram, Justin could be seen exploring the picturesque alleyways and staircases of Jiufen surrounded by red lanterns. Another photo he uploaded shows himself gazing out from the window of a charming teahouse cloaked in vines and red lanterns. According to an article by National Geographic, while Japanese filmmaker Hayao Miyazaki has denied that Jiufen was an inspiration for 'Spirited Away,' many have still drawn a connection to it through its resemblance to the settings in the movie. SB19 just had a sold-out show in Taipei. After their successful concert, the P-pop Kings went around Taiwan, looking like stars of 'Meteor Garden.' SB19 dropped their "Simula at Wakas" EP in April. It includes the songs "DAM" and "DUNGKA!" —Carby Rose Basina/JCB, GMA Integrated News
