MANILA – The SexBomb Girls, the iconic Filipino girl group that lit up the 2000s with their high-energy dance anthems and infectious hits like “Bakit Papa,” “Pretty Little Baby,” “Halukay Ube,” and “The Spageti Song,” stormed back onto the stage with a triumphant reunion concert, proving their enduring appeal nearly two decades after their heyday. The two-night extravaganza, titled Get, Get, Aw!: The SexBomb Concert rAWnd 2, drew massive crowds to the Araneta Coliseum on December 4, 2025, and the Mall of Asia Arena on December 9, 2025, blending nostalgia with fresh flair in a 50-song setlist that had fans on their feet from start to finish.
The event wasn’t just a throwback; it was a heartfelt celebration of the group’s legacy, featuring group numbers, solo showcases by fan favorites Rochelle Pangilinan and Jopay Paguia, a playful dance battle with the EB Babes, and nostalgic tunes from the Daisy Siete era. The emotional high came during Jopay’s spotlight moment, where Monty Macalino of the rock band Mayonnaise surprised her with a live performance of their 2004 hit “Jopay”—a song inspired by the dancer’s tearful appearance on a Lenten TV episode. Macalino, who penned the track after seeing Paguia cry on screen, shared the story with touching candor: “Pagbukas ko ng TV nakita ko ‘yung isang SexBomb dancer [Jopay], umiiyak. Sabi ko, ‘Ba’t kaya umiiyak ‘to ‘di ba nasayaw lang ‘to?’” (Translation: “When I turned on the TV, I saw one of the SexBomb dancers [Jopay] crying. I thought, ‘Why is she crying? Isn’t she just dancing?’) He later posted on social media: “Good things come to those who wait… Thank you and congratulations @jopaypaguiazamora & the Sexbomb Girls.”
The Road to Reunion: A Self-Made Spectacle
Behind the glamour lay a tale of grit and fan power. Rochelle Pangilinan revealed the group’s uphill battle to bring the show to life: “Ang dami kong nilapitan na producers para mag-produce nito, walang may gustong mag-produce” (Translation: “I approached so many producers to produce this, but no one wanted to”). Undeterred, the SexBomb Girls took matters into their own hands, self-producing the event and turning it into a roaring success that sold out both nights. The concert closed on an emotional note, with Pangilinan crediting their loyal supporters: the fans who kept the flame alive through the years.
The reunion taps into the group’s rich history as trailblazers of Filipino dance-pop, emerging from the reality show StarStruck in 2003 and captivating audiences with their bubbly personas and chart-topping tracks. Their return feels like a cultural reset, reminding a new generation of the joy and empowerment they brought to stages big and small.
Teasing More: A Third Night on the Horizon?
As the final cheers echoed through the MOA Arena, the group dropped a tantalizing hint: a potential third night to cap the reunion run. Details on the date, venue, and tickets remain under wraps, but the buzz is already building. For SexBomb die-hards and casual fans alike, this could be the encore the holidays deserve.
In a year of comebacks and cultural milestones, the SexBomb Girls aren’t just reuniting—they’re reigniting, proving that some hits are timeless, and some bonds unbreakable. Catch the fever while it lasts!
