Tony Award-winning singer-actress Lea Salonga fangirled over the boys of K-pop group BTS who recently performed at ABC’s annual New Year’s Rockin’ Eve show.
On Twitter, the Filipina celebrity lauded the international music sensation whose latest U.S. television appearance wowed her. Unfamiliar with the group, the Once On This Island star genuinely asked who the boys were. Providentially, the group’s fans, referred to as ARMYs, readily introduced BTS and gamely guided her through their music.
Guys, who was that K-POP boy band on ABC’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve??? Because, YAAAAAAAAS!!!!!

May campaign po sila with @UNICEF to #EndViolence. Ang pangalan po ay #BTSLoveMyself. A percentage of their album sales goes to the campaign and pwede din po kayo mag donate! Also, their songs are very inspiring. They wrote song about health, dreams, women empowerment & more 🙂
