Cristopher Diwata sings acapella version of SB19's 'MAPA'
Cristopher Diwata is not only a talented impersonator, but a good singer as well!
On TikTok, the Taylor Lautner look-a-like shared a clip of himself singing to SB19's 'MAPA.'
Belting out a short acapella version of the song, Cristopher showcased his vocal prowess.
He also tugged some heartstrings by including nostalgic photos of himself with his parents from the good old days in the video.
Cristopher's shot to fame began in 2013 when he joined "It's Showtime" segment "Kalokalike" as Lautner's "Twilight" character, Jacob Black, where he performed the now-viral 'What hafen, Vella?' 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 stars Michael Sager, Barbie Forteza and Kyline Alcantara, 'Unang Hirit' host Anjo Petierra and TikTok star Abi Marquez.
Cristopher has landed an acting role too, as he has now started taping for 'Mga Batang Riles,' where he is set to make a guest appearance.
