Just when you thought the "What hafen Vella?" trend couldn't get any bigger, here comes the man himself Christopher Diwata to turn it up a notch.
In Abi Marquez's TikTok video, Christopher not only made an appearance, he also proceeded to sing lines from Christina Perri's "A Thousand Years," which was used as the official soundtrack of the films.
Even better: The guy was having fun and enjoying himself.
This isn't the first time Christopher doubled-down on the Twilight references. He previously sang the song with Ben&Ben, who is just one of the many celebrities riding on his trend, among them Michael Sager, Anjo Petierra, and SB19.
He's landed several endorsements as well, which he said is allowing him to pay off debts and support his family. "Kahit maliit man 'yan, tatanggapin ko 'yan. Iga-grab ko 'yan kahit maliit. Sana sa mga nag-aalala sa akin, huwag niyong intindihin 'yun at mas maganda 'yung meron kaysa sa wala," Christopher told GMA News Online in an interview.
Christopher is also going to appear on "Mga Batang Riles."
We're happy for him and we're glad to see he's having fun himself!

The North Luzon Expressway may have heavy traffic on Saturday, May 31, and Sunday, June 1, 2025 due to a concert of SB19 in Bulacan, the NLEX Corporation said. "The SB19: Simula at Wakas World Tour will be held at the Philippine Arena on May 31 (Saturday) and June 1 (Sunday), from 10:00 AM to 11:30 PM.," the company said in an advisory. Motorists attending the concert were advised to take the NLEX Ciudad de Victoria exit. Meanwhile, other motorists going to Bocaue and Santa Maria were encouraged to take alternate routes via the NLEX exist in Marilao, Bocaue, or Tambubong. "Load up your Easytrip RFID accounts and allow more time for travel, as a high volume of traffic is expected on these dates," NLEX Corporation said. It added that traffic personnel will be deployed along NLEX to provide motorists any assistance they may need. The P-pop Kings earlier announced their 'Simula at Wakas World Tour' will span 18 cities in Asia and the Pacific, the Middle East, and North America. The tour will kick off in Bulacan on May 31 and will be stopping by Taipei in Taiwan in June. Come July, SB19 will fly to North America to perform to their fans in California and Canada. Other stops include Hawaii, Singapore, Dubai, Doha, Riyadh and Jeddah. Tickets for the May 31 Day 1 concert in Bulacan sold out in seven hours, prompting the scheduling of a Day 2 concert on June 1. "We did it!" SB19 wrote. "From the bottom of our hearts, thank you so much for your overwhelming love and support." "Solid kayo! We can't wait to see you all on May 31!" Mahal namin kayo!' the band added. —KG, GMA Integrated News

"What haffen Riles?" Cristopher Diwata, aka the Taylor Lautner lookalike who is trending for his "What haffen Vella?" lines, is all set to appear on "Mga Batang Riles." GMA Drama teased Cristopher's appearance with him wearing an all-black outfit, similar to his trending look, and carrying a bat. "Wat haffen, Riles? Y U fightin' again?
