Viral sensation Christopher Diwata, the man behind the “What hafen vella” trend, recently collaborated with P-pop kings SB19 for a performance of the latter’s song “Mapa.” 

 

In the video shared by Sony Music Philippines on Monday, March 26, the social media personality channeled a different version of himself through singing.

 



 

“What haffen vellaaaaaa-ta-ra-ta-ra, la-ta-ra-ta-ra,” Sony Music PH captioned its Instagram post.  

 

Christopher sang the song’s first verse. SB19 members Justin, Pablo, Josh, Ken, and Stell sang with him when he reached the song’s chorus.

Christopher delivered his lines taken from Hollywood actor Taylor Lautner’s dialogue in the Twilight movie series.  

 

“Sobrang random. We can’t believe na mapapanood namin ‘to [nang] live,” Ben&Ben reacted.
