Ogie says Regine won't leave Showbiz, Plus 1st Glimpse of Baby Nate's Pics on Party Pilipinas this Sunday and more!

The husband of Regine Velasquez denied rumors that the Asia's Songbird will leave the entertainment industry to become a full-time mom.
Velasquez gave birth to Nathaniel James, her first child with singer-songwriter Ogie Alcasid, last November 8.
In an exclusive interview with "The Buzz," Alcasid said he and Velasquez will work together in a concert next year.
"Mayroon kaming concert sa February 14 sa Araneta Coliseum, so iyon ang una niyang gagawin. Gusto raw niyang magpapayat. Sabi ko 'Ikaw kung ano ang gusto mo. Maganda ka sa akin kahit ano,'" he said.
Alcasid said he and Velasquez are happy to have their first child.
"Siyempre ang first few months talaga mag-a-adjust ka talaga dahil iba-iba ang oras. Kung kailan ka tulog, doon sila gising. Pero okay lang, kahit wala kang tulog okay lang," he said.
He added that he has written a song for Nathaniel James.
"Noong nasa bahay ako tinapos ko. Medyo ni-record ko nang konti. Pinasa ko na sa arranger ko. 'Yung title 'Aking Anak,'" he said.
When asked to give a message to his wife and son, Alcasid said, "Mahal, nakakatuwa na ang saya-saya mo. Nanay ka na. Siyempre mahirap iyan sa simula, pero nandito naman ako para alalayan ka.
"Sa anak ko, pangako namin sa'yo na papalakihin ka namin na isang mabuting Kristiyano. Excited kami ng mommy mo. At I love you, anak and I love you, honey."


Meanwhile, several people from show business shared their well wishes for Velasquez, Alcasid and their newborn child.
"Masayang masaya kami kasi 'yung talagang matagal na matagal na naming wini-wish for you two, nandito na. Ang pogi-pogi nung bata. Sobrang pogi talaga. I was just overwhelmed with the fact that Regine has a baby on her hands. Not a microphone but a baby. So super blessing 'yon," singer Jaya said.
Actor Dingdong Dantes, on the other hand, said that he is happy because the couple "has added another talented person in this world in the person of Nathaniel James."
"Sigurado akong manang-mana siya sa inyo," he said.
Popstar Princes Sarah Geronimo, for her part, said, "Very happy for Miss Reg. Finally, nagkaroon na rin siya ng matatawag na talagang anak niya talaga. Buong buo na ang pamilya ni Kuya Ogie. Katext ko po [sila]. Kinongratulate ko siya pero bibisita kami soon."
Singer Dingdong Avanzado, who is a friend of the couple, said, "The day after nanganak si Reg [I visited]. Tamang tama nag fi-feeding si Regine, nakita ko 'yung baby. You can see the joy in Ogie's face. Sabi niya 'Pare sobrang stressful 'tong week na 'to para sa akin.' Sabi niya unbelievable daw 'yung saya na nararamdaman niya. Si Reg, she's recovering pretty well."

Sa Party Pilipinas ipapakita ang litrato ng anak nina Ogie Alcasid at Regine Velasquez na si Baby Nathaniel James.
Binuo ni Ogie ang kantang Aking Anak na ginawa niya nung nagpa-check up si Regine at doon niya nakita ang mukha ng baby sa 4D ultrasound.
Pagkatapos ng check up na iyon ay tumuloy si Ogie sa guesting niya sa Startalk at doon niya kinanta ang unang bahagi ng Aking Anak pero hindi pa ito tapos.
Nung manganak si Regine, tinapos na ng singer-songwriter ang kanta para awitin niya sa Party Pilipinas sa Linggo.    

Ayaw muna ni Regine na lumabas dahil gusto muna niyang magbawas ng timbang.

Singer-songwriter Ogie Alcasid is so inspired with the birth of his first son that he wrote a song for him. Alcasid shared this on “Showbiz Central,” Nov. 13. “Sa ngayon ginagawa ko na. Siguro next week matatapos ko [na ang kanta],” he said. The song, which will talk about the birth of his son Nathaniel James, is titled “Aking Anak.”

He is hoping to sing the song in next Sunday’s “Party Pilipinas” episode. The singer related how he was informed about his wife Regine Velasquez’ date with the stork. “Regular check-up lang kasi niya iyon, eh, pero hindi namin talaga ini-expect na noong araw na ‘yon manganganak na siya,” he recalled. “Tumawag siya sa akin siguro mga alas singko [ng hapon]. Sabi niya, ‘Hon, manganganak na ako, ooperahan na ako.’ Medyo nag-panic din ako. Dumating ako sa ospital mga siguro quarter to seven [ng gabi]. Tapos pine-prep na siya. Siguro ‘yung operasyon halos fifteen to twenty minutes.”

Velasquez gave birth Nov. 8 via cesarean section. Alcasid shared having mixed emotion when he saw Nathanael James for the first time and heard his first cry. “Right at the moment, halo-halo na ‘yon, may tension, may kaba, may happy. Pagka umiyak na ‘yon tuwang-tuwa na ako nu’n.” He explained that the name Nathaniel James was “matagal na naming napagdesisyonan [ni Regine].” “Gusto talaga niya ‘yon. Napag-alaman namin na ang Nathaniel pala ay ‘gift of God’. ‘Yung James ay naidagdag namin kasi parang maganda ‘yung tunog ng Nathaniel James.

Friends of the power couple took turns in congratulating them for the birth of their son. “Redge, congrats kumare. Finally, may baby na,” Manilyn Reynes said. Actor Dingdong Dantes said he was “sobrang saya ako para sa kanila. Alam kong matagal na nilang inaantay ‘yan. ‘Yung anak nila is truly a blessing para sa kanila.” "You've added another talented person in this world... sigurado ako, manang-mana sa inyo," the actor told "The Buzz" in a report aired on the same day.Jaya was more descriptive to "SC" in describing the baby as “pogi as in pogi, maputi, sobrang cute. Finally, Nathan is here.”

On "The Buzz," as reported on Nov. 13, Jaya also noted, "I was just so overwhelmed with the fact that Regine has a baby on her hand. Not a microphone, but a baby--so super blessing 'yon." "Very happy for Ms. Reg, finally meron na rin siyang matatawag na anak niya talaga. Buong buo na 'yung kanilang pamilya ni kuya Ogie... Bibisita kami soon," Sarah Geronimo also told "The Buzz." "The Buzz," meanwhile, also caught up with Alcasid at the reunion concert of the La Salle High School chorale group, Kundirana. "Kakauwi ng mag-ina ko last night and okay na siya [Regine]," he said in the Nov. 13 report. "Si Regine ay tuloy-tuloy naman ang pag-breastfeed. Sarap talaga 'pag may baby sa bahay, di ba? Lahat ay aligaga... parang lahat talaga bumabait," he added. Alcasid said he is also hands-on with the baby, and does not mind the lack of sleep as a result of taking care of the baby.

When asked if his wife would truly turn her back on singing and show business, Alcasid practically refuted this by saying, "Meron kaming concert sa Feb. 14 sa Araneta Colisuem, so, 'yun ang una niyang gagawin. Gusto raw niyang magpa-payat. Sabi ko, 'Ikaw, kung anong gusto mo. Maganda ka sa akin kahit ano.'" To his wife, his message was: "Mahal, nakakatuwa na ang saya-saya mo, at nanay ka na! Siyempre mahirap 'yan sa simula pero andito naman ako para alalayan ka." Sharing his message to Nathaniel James with the viewers of "The Buzz," he also said: "Pangako namin sa iyo na palalakihin ka namin na isang mabuting Kristiyano. So excited kami ng mommy mo, at I love you, anak... at I love you honey."
