With COMELEC once again opening the voters registration period until October 30, now’s a good a time as any to start gathering your requirements and lining up to vote.
As voting is one of our civic duties under a democracy, even showbiz personalities are willing to brave the long lines and early call times to finally be dubbed registered voters.
Check out these celebrities who shared how and why they finally became certified voters for the coming 2022 National Elections:
Bea Alonzo
Bea shared back in September 2021 that she had reactivated her voters’ registration in order to participate in the coming elections.”
“Doing my part and reactivating my registration record for me to be able to practice my right to vote,” the actress had captioned.

Gary Valenciano
Yep, even Mr. Pure Energy knows you need the energy to register to vote.
On Instagram last September 27, the singer shared behind-the-scenes photos of his process in registering to vote in his Antipolo district, from setting up biometrics to getting his photos taken.
“Let’s do our part in choosing our next set of leaders. I am praying for wisdom & discernment for all of the voters & for the leaders of our country,” he shared.
Judy Ann and Ryan Agoncillo
Need a bonding activity with your S/O? Maybe registering to vote could be one such task.
Sharing matching photos of their certified-purple thumbs, the longtime couple shared that they wanted change and thus did it in the most democratic way: exercising their right to vote.
“Nakapag parehistro na kami! Yes! Gusto namin ng pagbabago.. parehistro na po ang mga hindi pa nagreregister.. may isang linggo pa para makapag parehistro. Let’s all UNITE and VOTE!
Ruffa Gutierrez
Want to caption your voters’ registration post in style? Take some tips from none other than celebrity voter Ruffa Gutierrez herself, who made it similar to a beauty queen introducing herself.
“Hi, I’m Sharmaine Ruffa Gutierrez from Quezon City!,” the actress began. “Let’s exercise our right to vote in the coming 2022 presidential elections for a brighter Philippines.”
She also shared photos with the Quezon City district staff who helped smoothen the process.
Maris Racal
Maris proves that there can be hitches in registering to vote, but it’s important we power through.
The 24-year-old shared that she woke up at 2:30 AM to register in her nearest district, but after waiting for hours, she soon learned that she was at the wrong district and promptly went home unregistered.
Maris didn’t give up though, as the following day she woke up in the very early morning again and finally got her coveted right to vote.
“We only have a few days left. Please,” she wrote on Instagram.
These celebrity voters are a great inspiration to everyone!
