Barbie Forteza steals spotlight on ‘It’s Showtime’ with impromptu ‘Meron Ba’ sample


Barbie Forteza is back on “It’s Showtime!” On Wednesday’s episode, she joined the mainstay hosts on different segments, including “Tawag ng Tanghalan.”

The Kapuso Primetime Princess was asked by Vice Ganda and Vhong Navarro for a sample after she jokingly said that she can sing different songs in different languages.

After a gibberish version of “Despacito,” Barbie was asked to sing her first single, “Meron Ba.”

But after singing only a few lines, Barbie’s performance was hilariously “gonged” by Ryan Bang, who defensively said that the hurados told him so.

“Sabi pa naman niya magmu-mukbang daw kami,” Barbie said.

Barbie is currently starring in the movie “That Kind of Love” with David Licauco, which is shown in Philippine cinemas.

Team BarDa flew to South Korea last May to film some scenes for the project.

They are also set to star on “Pulang Araw” with Sanya Lopez, Alden Richards, and Dennis Trillo.
