By tradition, 'Lupang Hinirang' signals the proper beginning of every presidential inauguration. Undoubtedly, leading the National Anthem on a historic day like today comes with as much honor and pressure on the chosen singer.

For all of history, the great responsibility to lead the nation in singing Lupang Hinirang on June 30, 2022, will forever be credited to actress-host Toni Gonzaga. Because not long after, the 17th President of the Republic of the Philippines will take his oath in the person of President-elect Ferdinand 'Bongbong' Marcos Jr. today at the National Museum.
