With Christmas only a month away, the biggest names from the Kapamilya network gathered at the Solaire Resort North for the 2024 Star Magical Christmas. Attendess graced the event in their unique interpretations of Yuletide attire, with looks ranging from campy costumes to chic evening wear.
For Angeline Quinto, the night was a chance to pay tribute to one of the queens of the holiday season, Mariah Carey. With Drag Race Philippines alumni and expert impersonator Vinas Deluxe doing her glam, Angeline was the spitting image of the elusive chanteuse.
LOOK: Angeline Quinto Transforms Into Mariah Carey for the Star Magical Christmas 2024
In a reel she posted moments after her walk on the white carpet, Angeline recreated a video of Mariah announcing that "it's time" for Christmas. Upon breaking out of the ice, the OPM singer transformed into Mimi herself, donning a festive red and gold look by Iji Montalbo.
Vinas, who has become viral for her own Mariah impersonations, captured the Grammy-winning singer's looks, from her ombre tresses, down to her defined cheekbones. True enough, some of the drag queen's fans immediately saw Angeline's resemblance to her.
"Love you maaa! Thank you po!" Vinas wrote to Angeline in gratitude.
Angeline was committed to staying in character as she attended the event, perpetually pouting her lips and delicately waving to onlookers. Later that night, she was even awarded the "Life of the Party."
Netizens React to Angeline Quinto as Mariah Carey
Needless to say, Angeline had the internet in stitches with her homage to the Queen of Christmas. Her fellow artists like Erik Santos, Amy Perez, and Adrian Lindayag were particularly big fans of the look. "This is funny," Tony Labrusca added with an applause emoji.
One netizen on Facebook expressed how lucky we were to have Mariah pass by the Star Magical Christmas despite her prior commitments. The holidays aren't complete without belting out "All I Want for Christmas Is You," after all!
True to Pinoy humour, other users bestowed a new name onto Angeline's alter ego: "Mariah... keri?" LOL!
Job well done, Angeline! You nailed this look, dah-ling!
