SexBomb Girls shine despite producers walkout

Published Feb 15, 2026 02:31 pm
SexBomb Girls Sunshine Garcia and Mia Pangyarihan couldn’t hide their excitement as their reunion concerts dazzled fans and turned into an electrifying sensation. Their journey proves that when passion meets purpose, anything is possible—and the stage was alive with joy, energy, and unforgettable memories.
"Ang goal namin ay makapag-reunion sa isang malaking venue na hindi namin nagawa noong time ng SexBomb. Nag-guest naman kami sa mga concert ng ibang artista, pero hindi kami ang main. (Our goal is to reunite at a big venue, which we couldn't do during SexBomb. We've been guests at other artists' concerts, but we're not the main ones)," said Mia during an appearance on the GMA online program "Your Honor" hosted by Chariz Solomon and Buboy Villar.

Sunshine added, "Masaya kami. Hindi namin ini-expect na sold-out sya at dadami pa ang shows namin. Ang sa amin lang naman ay matuloy ang reunion. Kaya noong sold out na kami, paldo! (We're happy. We didn't expect it to sell out, and we would have more shows. All we wanted was for the reunion to continue. So when we sold out, we were thrilled!)"
"May mga nagre-request sa amin na taga-ibang bansa na sa kanila naman daw. Iba talaga yung atmosphere during the concert. Parang hindi 2025. Parang dinala tayo sa dati. Enjoy talaga kami sa concert. Parang walang pagod. Two months kaming tuloy-tuloy sa training.(There are people who request us from other countries, and they say it's theirs. The atmosphere during the concert is really different. It's not like it's 2025. It's like we've been transported back in time. We really enjoyed the concert. We didn't seem tired. We trained continuously for two months)," said Mia.
Sunshine initially believed the group would only hold three shows. However, due to overwhelming demand, a fourth concert was added. The first SexBomb reunion concert took place at the Araneta Coliseum on Dec. 4, 2025.
She explained that they only planned up to the third round, but tickets sold out so fast that they had to add a fourth round—just for those who missed out. They were shocked to find 100,000 people lined up online for tickets.
Mia added, "20,000 lang ang makakapasok sa MOA pero nasa 100,000 ang cue. (20,000 can enter the MOA, but the cue is around 100,000.)"
But Mia and Sunshine recalled the time when producers backed out of their planned reunion concert.
"December na yun eh. Late na rin at lahat ng money ng company ay nakalabas na. Then, naghanap kami ng co-producers. Meron tapos nawala. Na-ghosting kami. Ang sakit. Tinuloy pa rin namin. Sabi namin, kaya natin ito. Push! (It was December. It was late, and all the company's money had already been spent. Then, we looked for co-producers. We had some, and then they disappeared. We were ghosted. It was painful. We still went ahead. We said, we can do this. Push!)," Mia said.

Mia added, "Lahat ng girls kinausap namin kung okay lang magpo-promo kami nang walang bayad. Yung costume kanya, kanya muna. Walang pagkain. Diet naman kasi kami eh. Pero meron namang itlog at saging. Grabe rin ang effort and sacrifice na ginawa nila. Yung iba, ang layo pa nila at galing pa sa ibang bansa. I think this is the right time for a reunion. (We talked to all the girls, and we asked them if it was okay for us to promote for free.) Each one of us prepares the costume. There was no food. We were on a diet. But there were eggs and bananas. Their effort and sacrifice were also huge. Others came from far places and from other countries. I think this is the right time for a reunion.)"
Five of the SexBomb Girls shelled out money just to push the reunion concert. The girls at first doubted whether their fans would watch their show, said Mia. "Ang tagal naming nawala sa showbiz. Ang tagal naming nanahimik. Natakot kaming bumalik. Baka wala nang manood at gustong mag-produce. So nagambagan kami. So may group chat kami. The first question is: Sino ang gustong sumama sa reunion? Lahat, yes. Then sino ang gustong mag-produce? Lima kaming nag okay. (We've been away from showbiz for so long. We've been silent for so long. We were afraid to come back. Maybe no one would watch and want to produce. So we got confused. So we had a group chat. The first question is: Who wants to join the reunion? Everyone, yes. Then who wants to produce? The five of us said okay.)"
The SexBomb Girls thanked those who believed in them when they first considered the concert.
For their message to the producers who backed out, Mia laughed and said, "It's your loss." Sunshine added, "Kami pala yung pinakawalan ninyo. (It turns out we were the ones you let go.)"
Sunshine also has a message to producers who backed out, but decided to approach them again after the shows were successful.
"Hindi na! Okay na kami. Matapos kaming ma-ghosting, okay na kami. Okay na okay na kami. Sinarado na namin. Kung sino lang talaga yung mga nakasama at nagtiwala sa amin noong una, sila na lang. (No more! We're okay. After we were ghosted, we're okay. We're okay, we're okay. We've closed it. We trusted the ones who stayed with us in the beginning)," she said.
But Mia said she wouldn't blame the producers who backed out. "Tumitingin din sila sa business side, syempre. Kumbaga, ano ang balik sa kanila kapag nag-invest sa amin?"
Following five sold-out shows in the Philippines, The SexBomb Girls will stage their first international concerts in the Middle East in March.
