A concert designed to raise funds for a church in Occidental Mindoro province drew flak on social media after netizens criticized one of the performers, singer-actress Julie Anne San Jose, for her attire and choice of songs.
San Jose, who top-billed the concert held inside the Nuestra Señora Del Pilar Shrine and Parish in Mamburao, Occidental Mindoro, on Oct. 6, performed in a high-slit, nude-colored gown. Her repertoire included ABBA’s “Dancing Queen,” Lady Gaga’s “Edge of Glory,” Miley Cyrus’ “The Climb” and Filipino songs.
