WCOPA Winner, Divo Bayer To Perform InSouth San Francisco This SAturday

Reigning Miss RP-USA 2009, Trina Dimaranan to perform for the first time at the “Summer Night of Music with WCOPA Winnder, Divo Bayer” on August 8, this Saturday.

Current Miss RP-USA title holder, Trina Dimaranan will perform at the “Summer Night of Music with Divo Bayer “ on August 8 at the South San Francisco High School. The dusky beauty queen who almost won all the major titles at the Carnival of Philippine Beauties 2009 showed how much talent she got when sang at the talent competition and people were all surprised that a young girl like her has the voice that can shame a lot of wannabe singers-actors in Philippine TV. Trina exudes a different aura when she belted “Hurt” as her entry song for the said beauty pageant and that she sang it so well that everybody was raving and rooting for her to win the major title which she did.

This prompted Tessie Labitoria of St. Teresa Agency and Entertainment to invite her to join the Divo Bayer musical show on August 8 together with the best talents of the Bay Area. The statuesque beauty titlist is also slated to go to the Philippines to visit her dad and at the same time fulfill her role as Miss RP-USA winner spreading goodwill among our kababayans in the Philippines where she has invitations to different special engagements.

For those who would like to watch Trina Dimaranan at the “Summer Night of Music with Divo Bayer” on August 8, please call Tessie Labitoria at (415) 504-4837 or Noel Nuguit at (408) 772-3922. Tickets are sold at $25, $20 and $15,
