"Napaiyak ako, napahagulgol ako sa duet namin ni Dingdong (Avanzado), favorite song ni Dingdong ang 'Because You Loved Me.' Ginawa naming duet at naiyak ako sa lyrics. Tagos sa puso ko rin," she said. (My duet with Dingdong made me cry. I cried because Dingdong's favorite song is 'Because You Loved Me.' The lyrics of the song touched my heart.)

Jessa ensured that the audience had a fantastic experience and established a strong emotional connection with the music.

"Isa sa mga highlights ng "Sa Aking Puso" ay napatayo at napasayaw namin ang mga kababayan natin sa Los Angeles and syempre singing our OPM hits, Tuloy tuloy na hanggang dulo," she said.

(One of the highlights of "Sa Aking Puso" was that we made our compatriots in Los Angeles stand up, dance, and sing our OPM hits until the end.)

"I am so overwhelmed with joy knowing and seeing how the people who saw the concert took to social media to express how much they enjoyed and appreciated our concert. As an artist who has been doing live performances for more than three decades, it’s still a fulfilling experience to see what you worked hard for and visualized in your mind has been achieved. To have connected with each and everyone in the audience every time we are on stage is what keeps us going. That’s what it’s all about," Dingdong added.
