They’re back. 🎸✨

IV of Spades has officially reunited with the release of their long-awaited sophomore album “Andalucia,” marking the band’s full comeback five years after their hiatus — and with Unique Salonga back in the lineup.

The 12-track album features new singles like “Nanaman,” “Konsensya,” and “Suliranin,” along with the viral hit “Aura,” the first song the band wrote together after reuniting.

The group says the album reflects their renewed bond and more collaborative process: “We needed to fix our relationship first before returning to music.”

IV of Spades will celebrate their comeback with back-to-back concerts at the MOA Arena this December.

“Bridgerton” and “Wicked” star Jonathan Bailey has been named People magazine’s 2025 “Sexiest Man Alive,” marking the first time in the award’s 40-year history that the title goes to an openly gay man.

Bailey, who came out publicly in 2018, described the honor as both “flattering and absurd,” sharing that he only told his dog Benson before the big reveal.

The British actor rose to fame through roles in “Broadchurch” and “Bridgerton,” and will soon appear in “Wicked: Part Two.”

TV host Kim Atienza, known to many as Kuya Kim, broke his silence on the passing of his 19-year-old daughter Emmanin an emotional interview with Jessica Soho. Speaking on Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho, Atienza shared the pain of losing his child, who had long struggled with mental health challenges and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Atienza revealed that Emman had previously opened up about her struggles online and through advocacy for mental health awareness. Despite her cheerful demeanor, she was silently suffering.

Recalling the moment he learned of her passing on October 22 in California, Kuya Kim said he dropped to his knees upon receiving the news from his wife, Fely Hung. “Lord, dasal ko sa ’yo ‘to araw-araw. Why?” he said.

Though grief comes in waves, Atienza finds peace in his faith and in the belief that “nothing is accidental” and that his daughter’s life had purpose. Emman’s advocacy, “a little kindness,” has since touched people worldwide, appearing in major outlets like The New York Times and TMZ.

“Madali ang physical pain,” Kuya Kim reflected. “Pero ‘yung mawalan ng anak... masakit. Hindi mo alam saan galing ‘yung sakit — masakit lang.”
