Pacquiao jogs, then sings to wife and crowd -- Manila Bulletin

By NICK GIONGCO, Manila Bulletin

LOS ANGELES — Manny Pacquiao staged a mini-concert before his fans and followers on Sunday night as he rehearsed with his band at Cascades Studios on Santa Monica Boulevard in Hollywood.

With wife Jinkee on a comfy sofa fronting the stage, Pacquiao belted out a repertoire of his favorite tunes, including Michael Bolton’s version of “To Love Somebody” and Bryan Adams’ “Everything I do (I’ll Do It For You) that the modest crowd applauded.

Pacquiao, backup singer Madonna Decena and pop artist Lito Camo, are scheduled to perform on Nov. 16 in Lake Tahoe, three days after the Filipino fighter’s world title showdown with Antonio Margarito in Dallas, Texas.

PalazzoPacquiao actually started the day with a morning jog at Pan Pacific Park, a sprawling exercise area just two blocks away from his apartment unit at The Palazzo in the trendy La Brea area.

After running, Pacquiao went to church with his family and friends then attended a gathering before doing one of his many passions aside from boxing, politics and movies.

Pacquiao was enjoying every second of his rehearsal, even providing a slice of comedy to his performance that delighted those in attendance, some of them grownups carrying with them toddlers.
