Masama ang tumanggi, was the rule that night, so whenever one was called to sing, he/she had to take the mic.
Tirso Cruz III and Ricky Davao goaded Senator Jinggoy Estrada to sing, and the newly-minted Metro Manila Film Festival Best Actor did not disappoint the partygoers with his upbeat rendition of "Killing Me Softly" and "Memories."

Kung Ako Ikaw.
