Manny Pacquiao Does It All on Jimmy Kimmel Live!

Did you see Manny Pacquiao’s interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live! He’s hilarious! The audience (and I saw quite a number of Filipinos there, of course) was on its feet when he came in! Manny said very few words, but had his huge smile on practically the whole time.

Manny talked about his dog Pacman, his boxing-acting-and-singing careers, his family, and how he’s really popular in the Philippines. It’s very cute the way he didn’t seem to know how to react when Kimmel said that he’s the most popular man in the Philippines. Manny just makes these little nods, as though he wants to agree but was too shy.

At the end of the segment, Pacquiao got with the live band and sang ‘Sometimes When We Touch’. The man is clearly at home in the spotlight.

Here’s the first part of the segment:

You can watch the rest of it here and here.

As we near the night of his fight against Miguel Cotto, online coverage heats up. If you want to catch up on some of the Pacquiao news, start with these:

• Anything Pinoy reports that the fight will be shown for free in Manila
• Jayvee, at A Bugged Life, has photos of the latest Limited Edition Manny Pacquiao t-shirts at the Nike store
• Marvin of Burnt Lumpia concocted the Pacman Punch in honor of Pacquiao
• The Philippine Daily Inquirer’s Lifestyle section has a feature on Pacquiao’s development as a style icon

I hope you’ve made arrangements for Saturday! Let’s all cheer Manny on! Go, Manny Pacquiao!
