What hafen, “Unang Hirit?”

Cristopher Diwata, the viral guy behind the iconic line "What hafen Vella” will be appearing on “Unang Hirit” on Tuesday!

On social media Monday, GMA Public Affairs shared a short clip of Cristopher recreating his legendary “What hafen Vella?” line as he shared that he will guest on the Kapuso morning show.

“What hafen Vella? What you watching again? I know, ‘UH’ right? Ayon abangan niyo po ako bukas sa ‘Unang Hirit!’ he said in the video.

In 2013, Cristopher joined the "It's Showtime" segment "Kalokalike" as Taylor Lautner's "Twilight" character, Jacob Black, where he performed the now-viral line.

Over a decade later, Cristopher's clip resurfaced, causing him to go viral again and stamp his place in the Philippine internet's hall of fame for memes.

TikTok users, as well as celebrities have been dubbing and recreating his iconic lines: "What hafen, Vella? Why you cryin' again? I know, vampire, right? Vampire will feyt to me."

Since then, Cristopher has collaborated with several brands and Filipino artists, such as Ben&Ben, SB19, and Sparkle star Michael Sager.
