P-Pop Kings SB19 is Mang Juan Newest Ambassadors

Everyday we try to find that extra burst of energy to push through. Sometimes, it’s those unexpected “Huwow” moments that give you the boost you didn’t know you needed.

Mang Juan, known for its asim-anghang taste and Pinoy-sarap flavors, is turning up the excitement with its newest endorsers, P-pop sensation SB19, whose electrifying performances and fun-loving personalities perfectly embody the snack brand’s ‘Huwow’ energy.

“We’re glad to know that Mang Juan is a proudly Filipino brand that represents the youthful Pinoy spirit - full of energy and passion that shines through despite any hardship,” said Pablo, who’s looking forward to enjoying both new and classic Mang Juan flavors. “It’ll level up our snack time as we continue to tour and perform.”

SB19 Enjoys Mang Juan

Whether they’re rehearsing or on the move, Mang Juan has become SB19’s go-to bite to stay energized despite their hectic schedules. “Nakakapagod ang training at rehearsals namin, pero worth it para sa mga A’TIN,” said Stell. “That’s why it’s nice to have a snack like Mang Juan that gives us that energy boost! Nakakawala talaga ng pagod, and it’s motivating too.”

Ken also emphasized the importance of supporting local wherever they go. “As a group that proudly represents Filipino talent, we always do our best to support local brands like Mang Juan. It tastes great and brings back flavors we all grew up loving,” he said.

“Huwow” Moments with SB19 and Mang Juan

Mang Juan brings out a variety of asim-anghang flavors - perfect for those exciting “Huwow” moments. For SB19, these moments have come often throughout their journey from being humble trainees to global P-pop icons. Despite their massive fanbase and growing success, the group remains in awe of how far they’ve come.

“We don’t really expect results immediately, but our fans never fail to amaze us. Their power and support always make us say, ‘Huwow!’” shared Josh. He also reflected on a recent milestone that their fandom, A’TIN, made possible: “We know we have loyal supporters, but we didn’t expect the reach we have now. Our shows are selling out so fast - like Day 1 of our Simula at Wakas World Tour Kickoff at the Philippine Arena, which sold out in less than seven hours!”

Beyond live performances, SB19 continues to shine on the charts. Justin expressed his amazement at their expanding reach: “Even when we check the rankings, we’re like, ‘Huwow!’ tracks from our Simula at Wakas EP are not only charting locally, but also making it onto international charts, even Billboard!”

Despite the massive success they experience, SB19 always makes sure to have time to sit back, relax, and enjoy delicious Mang Juan snacks with their favorite flavors – Chicharron ni Mang Juan Sukang Paombong, Espesyal Suka’t Sili, Chik’n Skin ni Mang Juan, Kropek ni Mang Juan Spicy Pusit and Kropek ni Mang Juan Sweet Chili Hipon.

Comedy Icon Roderick Paulate Makes His Comedy Comeback via CreaZion Studios Newest Family Comedy Movie "Mudrasta, Ang Beking Ina"

Roderick Paulate came strong with the reintroduction of his classic ‘patawa’ to the Mudrasta trailer launch at the MediaCon and was warmly embraced by the guests who graced the event.

Mudrasta, the upcoming CreaZion Studio Release family-comedy film, brought together members of the press ahead of its nationwide release. The event was attended by the cast, led by Roderick Paulate, along with Tonton Gutierrez, Carmi Martin, Sunshine Teodoro, and Debbie Garcia.

During the MediaCon, the cast’s chemistry was undeniable - especially between Roderick Paulate and Tonton Gutierrez, who had everyone laughing with their effortless back-and-forth. When asked how they approached building that dynamic for the film, both shared that it didn’t take much work at all. “It just felt natural,” they said, crediting the script and their shared experience in comedy for making the rhythm between their characters easy to find. The rest of the cast echoed the same sentiment, making it clear that Mudrasta is as fun behind the scenes as it is on screen.

The press event also offered new insight into what might be Roderick Paulate’s most entertaining role yet. “I'm very particular with the story at kung paano gagawin,” said Paulate when asked why he chose Mudrasta as his big-screen comeback. “Maganda ang Mudrasta. I've never been a ‘Mudrasta,’ first ‘Mudrasta’ role ko ito at challenging na agad. I asked myself, ‘Paano ako magiging ‘Mudrasta?’” Tapos sabi ko pagkatapos n’on, kaya kong gawin, kaya gusto ko makita ‘yong script. Do'n na kami nagsimula ng proseso. Involved ako sa bawat sequence, at na-excite ako. Maraming factors, at sigurado ako hindi ako nagkamali na ito ‘yong napili ko para mag-comedy ulit.”

Mudrasta follows the story of Victor “Beki” Labrador (Paulate), a flamboyant ex-lover who finds himself back in his former flame’s life after inheriting half of his estate and being forced to live with the family he left behind.

The trailer, now a viral hit, has racked up over 6.35M views across platforms, and is currently #11 on the Top 30 Trailers in the Philippines on YouTube. Viewers were quick to highlight the film’s most quotable and theatrical moments, including:

● The dramatic Minsan Lang Kita Iibigin confrontation between Beki and Evita: “Nagkarelasyon po kami ni Enrique… Relasyon! Kerida, Kabit, Mistress, Number 2—Relasyon!”

● A visual callback to MMK’s Lobo, when Beki lets go of the balloons

Directed by Julius Ruslin Alfonso (Deadma Walking) and produced by the same team behind Patay Na Si Jesus, Mudrasta promises a rollercoaster of hilarity and heart.

Watch out for more nods to iconic scenes from Filipino movies and series in Mudrasta. Catch it in cinemas nationwide starting August 20, 2025.
