Jackson Wang fired up the Philippine stage on Sunday, November 2, as he brought to Manila his “MAGICMAN 2” World Tour at the Araneta Coliseum.
The global star featured sexy, electrifying, and heartfelt performances and stages that aimed to showcase his true self.
“It's been a while in Manila. It's the first time we're bringing the MAGICMAN Tour here,” Jackson said.
Jackson also made sure he interacted with the fans and kept the energy of the crowd going throughout the show. He even invited four lucky fans on stage where he performed the steamy song, “Contact.”
But aside from the performances and the amazing visuals, Jackson wanted to inspire and empower his fans with his music and the concert most of all.
In a video letter shown at the show, Jackson said, “Hoping that you could take away not just the performance tonight but also thoughts that can give you a deem of light, hope, and encouragement when you are in your darkest days.”

“Life is so hard, and sometimes we all want to be perfect. And every single day we wake up with social media, with so many information. A lot of the times we lose ourselves, we don't know who we are anymore. A lot of the times we're following what's relevant, what's trendy, but deep down, a lot of the times, you don't really give a f*ck. And I feel like a lot of the times, selfish is not a bad thing, and feeling not okay is okay. Why the f*ck do we have to feel okay all the time? That's why I'm saying, live the magic. Whatever happened to you, good and bad, that made you who you are today,” Jackson Wang said.
