The artists lack chemistry to pull the show up against its rival programs.<br /> <br /> 'And I Love You So' may be included in the list of teleseryes that bid an early goodbye such as Walang Iwanan, and Let The Love Begin.<br /> <br /> Though it's not yet confirmed, the finale is set to air on March 11, 2016.<br /> <br />

Alden Richards' Concert in February 20 at Philippine Arena Cancelled Due to Low Ticket Sales

<br /> A "show for a cause" concert entitled "Sa Totoong Buhay Naman" was supposed to happen last Saturday, February 20, 2016 at the Philippine Arena.<br /> <br /> However, due to to dismal ticket sales, the producer of the said concert was forced to cancel the show.<br /> <br /> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Ct0w_3W4ba4/Vso9trCvE-I/AAAAAAAAG6o/UNX0xyhQNnE/s1600/Alden%2BRichards%2BSa%2BTotoong%2BBuhay%2BNaman.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Alden Richards Sa Totoong Buhay Naman" border="0" height="640" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Ct0w_3W4ba4/Vso9trCvE-I/AAAAAAAAG6o/UNX0xyhQNnE/s640/Alden%2BRichards%2BSa%2BTotoong%2BBuhay%2BNaman.jpg" width="426" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">image from PDI</td></tr> </tbody></table> <br /> Top-billed by Pambansang Bae Alden Richards, the concert which also includes Wally Bayola, Jose Manalo, Ruru Madrid, Jerald Napoles, Jon Lucas, and Eat Bulaga's That's My Bae, only sold 74 tickets, according to the report of Philippine Daily Inquirer.<br /> <br /> Philippine Arena has a seating capacity of 55,000 and it's quite a disapppointment that despite Alden's popularity, it did not boost the ticket sales.<br /> <br /> However, other reports say that the cancellation was due to JaDine's concert which also happened on the same day. In an Article written by June Nardo of Philstar.com, the concert was cancelled to prevent it from colliding with JaDine's concert.<br /> <br /> Fans reacted to the report saying that the event is not really Alden's concert and he was only a guest performer. If this is true, why is he the center of the poster used for promotion?<br /> <br /> This is not Alden's first time to experience a flop concert since his concert series in Dubai and Qatar were also reported to be a flop (<a href="http://www.lionheartv.net/2016/02/alden-richards-cancelled-arena-concert/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">lionheartv.net</a>)<br /> <br /> Is this the end of Alden's Magic?<br /> <div> <br /> <br /></div>
