MANILA, Philippines — From Chucky doll and his bride to pop superstar Taylor Swift, celebrities, showbiz personalities, and influencers — including GMA Sparkle artists — attended this year’s “Shake, Rattle and Ball” in character, donning their most outlandish and eye-catching outfits on the black carpet last Thursday at One Ayala in Makati.
Tim Yap’s Halloween ball is themed Cirque, where “legends, freaks and icons” came together at the party, which was in partnership with Sparkle GMA Artist Center.

Two-time Olympic gold medalist Carlos Yulo and his girlfriend Chloe San Jose were a scene-stealing couple with their Chucky doll and his bride Tiffany Valentine-inspired looks at the ball.
Carlos shared in an interview that Chloe was the one who thought of the concept. “Gusto namin couple… We want to (achieve) an iconic look,” he further offered.

Tim, on the other hand, made a grand entrance at the party when he danced all the way to the stage in a Kokey costume. “It’s OK to be Kokey,” quipped Tim. “It’s OK to be different. It’s OK to be who you are. Tonight is all about expression and celebrating you.”
“Decided to be this Filipino alien and classic pop culture phenomenon for the ‘Shake, Rattle and Ball’ because I gravitate towards characters that have struggled and made it inspite and despite,” Tim wrote on his Instagram.

“Getting into this character (literally) wasn’t easy. It took so much prosthetics trial and error and in the end, I went for the original mask used in the show, resurrected from its resting place in a Bulacan warehouse to be given life for one night of Cirque.”
