Singer Juan Karlos “JK” Labajo paid tribute to Trisha Macalagay, a fan who recently lost her life in a fire at Laguna State Polytechnic University.
During his performance at the Anilag Festival, Labajo dedicated a shoutout to Macalagay and sang her favorite song, his cover of “Through the Years” from the film Lolo and The Kid.
The “Ere” singer also posted a short message on Facebook: “Maraming Salamat, Trisha Macalagay.”
Macalagay’s family expressed gratitude for Labajo’s gesture, saying it brought them comfort and peace.
Macalagay, a biology student and beauty queen, was the sole fatality in the March 13 fire that engulfed the College of Arts and Sciences building in Barangay Bubukal, Laguna.
