Balang wows 'Ellen' for 4th time

-



For the fourth time, Filipino child star Balang charmed American television personality Ellen DeGeneres when he showed his latest dance moves during an appearance on the popular variety show "The Ellen Show."  

"In the two years we've known our next guest, he's gone from being a 6-year-old dancing boy from the Philippines to an 8-year-old international star," said DeGeneres as she introduced the chubby kid.

Balang later grooved to Ed Sheeran's No. 1 song "Shape of You."

In his conversation with DeGeneres, Balang, who is John Philip Bughaw in real life, said that he is now a licensed zumba instructor.

"Nung pumunta ako dito sa 'Ellen' nung sinabi ko gusto kong maging instructor, tapos pinapunta ako sa convention, tapos binigyan ako ng lisensya," the child star said.

The audience cheered when they heard the good news that Balang is now a licensed dance instructor.

Asked if he was excited to back in Los Angeles, California, Balang said: "Yes! Dahil gusto po kitang makita!"

"That's really sweet! I'm excited to see you, too!" said DeGeneres.


The television host also asked him if he was still using the stationary bike she gave him the last time he visited the show.

"Yes! Tapos sabi ko kay mama...mama pumayat na ba ako? Tapos sabi ni mama, 'No pa! Sige pa, pagpatuloy mo pa yan!' "Balang said.

When asked how long does he stay in the bike, Balang said: "Three minutes."

Balang, of Cavite, initially attracted attention from DeGeneres who saw him dancing to "Bang! Bang!" by Jessie J, Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj in a video that went viral.

In May 2015, Ellen then invited Balang over to the US and danced to the upbeat song.

His second Ellen appearance happened in November 2015. This time, Balang danced to "Single Ladies" by Beyonce and Silento's "Nae Nae." Balang appeared in "Ellen" for the third time in February 2016. - Robert Requintina/TEMPO

"Oo I am. Pero I don't even know kung alam n'ya. During the Christmas party of ABS CBN last year, I was with Tito Bayani (Agbayani). E magkapitbahay silang dalawa. And even Tito Bayani was telling me hindi na n'ya nakikita si Erpat. Lagi s'yang busy. Sinabi ni Tito Bayani, 'why don't you just text him?' "said Diego, when asked if he's reaching out to his father, during an interview on "Tonight With Boy Abunda" on ABS CBN. "Sabi ko, 'why not?' Nanghihinayang ako eh. Kung kelan ako sobrang seryoso na sa ginagawa ko sa showbiz na 'to, I wanna learn so much. I'm taking workshops with Tito Pen Medina at kung sinu-sino pa. Why not my dad? Why not my father?; "Nanghihinayang lang ako. Sa kont

Her complete post: "We are sleep-deprived & the noise is stressful for me, my husband and and my children when we are home, that living in a beautiful building that has its own hotel and restaurants (and that cost more than what I sold our Wack-Wack house for!?!) still makes us all want to move out and check into a nearby hotel or transfer to a house or another condo!; "I understand how uncomfortable it is for a homeowner to have to do some construction in his own property and know he’s inconveniencing and bothering neighbors; "I am usually very understanding.
