For her 24th birthday, Sarah has three wishes: the welfare of her family, freedom, and love. They were all granted by her fairy godmothers, as embodied by Jon Santos, who attended her birthday concert, 24/SG, at the Smart-Araneta Coliseum last night, July 7.

Popstar Princess Sarah Geronimo revealed three birthday wishes on the first night of her two-night birthday concert at the Smart-Araneta Coliseum last night, July 7.

During her birthday concert dubbed 24/SG, Sarah invited the audience to enter her dream. 

Here, a wicked witch, played by comedy actor Jon Santos, gave her three wishes. She was warned, however, that if these three wishes do not come true, she would forever be damned in her beautiful nightmare.

This signalled the start of a three-hour entertainment program by the singer-dancer, who will turn 24 on July 25.

Sarah dramatically appeared on stage on a hydraulic lift while  singing the slow version of Beyonce’s Sweet Dream.

She wore a two-piece, brocade cloak over a dress embellished with Swarovski stones. Her outfit was designed by Dubai-based Filipino designer Furne One.

In her second song, Eurythmics’s “Sweet Dream,” Sarah danced in time with the computer-generated background. She also removed her cloak, revealing her sexy outfit.

There was a slight problem removing her lapel mic, but she went on with her next number, Rihanna’s “Where Have You Been,” which she performed with the G-Force dancers.

The strobe lights on the stage helped set the party mood of the concert.

Before formally welcoming her audience to her birthday concert, Sarah sang Adele’s “Set Fire to the Rain.”

“Happy 14th birthday to me,” she  announced to the audience in jest.

Sarah explained that she was 14 years old when Viva Artists' big boss, Vic del Rosario, discovered her in the defunct singing talent show, Star for a Night.

 

Since this was her 24th birthday celebration, she teased her avid fans, “This is my 24th birthday, 24 na ako, pwede na!”

The crowd started to scream; they were thrilled at the thought that Sarah hinted that she was free to be in a romantic relationship. This was everyone's wish for the Popstar Princess.

However, she broke the “kilig” feeling by saying, “Pwede nang maging 25. ‘Tapos 26!”

She sang three of her favorite songs which she dedicated to her audience: Coldplay’s “The Scientist,” The Script’s “Breakeven,” and Christina Perri’s “Jar of Hearts.”

    Si Sarah, mraming taon ng nagcoconcert. Pero hindi sya pagsasawaan ng tao. Kasi habang tumatagal sya sa industriya, lalo syang gumagaling!! Nag iisa ka sarah. May lugar sa showbiz na ekaw lang ang pqwdeng umukupa! Isa kang reyna!! Bakit ba ang tagal ibigay sa kanya ang titulong reyna. Concert queen at pop queen!

    wala naman kakumpetensya si sarah so kaya solo niya dahil si angeline naman ay kauumpisa pa lang kaya sino pa ba ang makakalaban niya. dahil lahat nang super sikat na singer ay retired na. kaya so kaya kanyang kanya ang masa. kaya hwag sabihin na di siya pinagsasawaan dahil wala naman ngang ibang mapapanood. lol. and sana nga aminin na sila na ni gerald and hwag nang mag intay nang 25 or 26. marrying age na iyon at hindi age for magnobyo pa lang.

    Si SARAH para pala siyang FEMALE VERSION ni Gary Valenciano. Eversince sing and dance na si sir gary at 48 years old sing and dance pa rin. 99 percent ganyan din si SARAH.

    Noon nagtataka kami kung bakit walang boyfriend na inaamin si sarah kasi feeling lang namin meron na talaga. Ayun sila pala ni rayver. Ngayon, kung magkakaroon ng lovelife si sarah e sana huwag na siyang magdeny. Masaya pa nga ang mga fans na may boyfriend na siya at matanda na siya kaya walang akong makitang dahilan para itago pa. Good luck sa next lovelife mo.
