He’s known for his looks and his smooth moves on the dance floor. He may not have been the one to start the #FightSongChallenge, but he is the one who made it viral.
He’s none other than DJ Loonyo, a man who once was seen at the DJ booth at Okada Manila. His videos on TikTok made women swoon and men want to learn to dance once more.
He had, at one point, pranked the living daylights out of everyone when he and Kapamilya star Ivana Alawi pretended to be in a relationship for one of Ivana’s videos.
He has also dropped controversial statements about the recent pandemic, but he has learned his lesson and has since adapted his content.
Imagine going from someone that people barely knew about to now being a household name, which has brought him back to TV at one point. Yes, DJ Loonyo has guested on All Out Sundays just last month, but he was a dancer for a couple of episode son ASAP and ASAP Chillout.
He’s based in Hangzhou, China nowadays, but he is still loved by Filipinos.
That’s our Favorite Newbie, DJ Loonyo.
