With fall already here, we're missing the summer vibes. Over the summer, a bunch of Star Magic artists came over to the U.S. for the 30th anniversary show, Beyond the Stars and although we got a lot of behind-the-scenes content, but the artists also took their own. We see Donny Pangilinan enjoy some free time golfing in San Francisco, Maris Racal enjoy halo-halo in Queens, and Alexa Ilacad watch Moulin Rouge on Broadway!
It looks like they all had a blast with each other and just enjoy the time to hang out outside of work. Who said you couldn't work hard and play even harder.
