Anne Curtis-Smith successfully held her comeback concert titled 'Luv-ANNE: The Comeback' last June 11 in Newport Performing Arts Theater in Resorts World Manila. It's her first live performance in almost three years.

This event marks Anne's return to showbiz after transitioning to life as a mother in March 2020, when she gave birth in Australia to her and Erwan Heussaff's daughter Dahlia Amélie. The Filipino-Australian actress/host/recording artist/entrepreneur took a break from the limelight to embrace motherhood, a new chapter in her life that coincided with the pandemic. As a result, her showbiz comeback came much later than what she may have initially intended to do. Her fans were left holding onto her promise that she'd come back when things are better. And she did so in her signature 'Anne-kabogable' fashion: show-stopping, jaw-dropping, and trending!

True to the concert's title, 'Luv-Anne,' which is a play on the Filipino word 'laban' (or fight), Anne was truly a 'palaban' (a fighter) in the event. She rocked each and every outfit, looking beautiful and sexy as ever, and she nailed all her performances.

'The reason why I’m here as well is because of love, love for music and passion for doing something that we love. And I think that’s why you guys are here also because of love. Because it’s been so long yet you’re still here to support me,' she told her concert's live audience. 'Nakaka-miss maging concert performer. Thank you for welcoming me again. It took me a lot talaga to be here tonight kasi during the time that I wasn’t in front of the limelight, I was really enjoying my life as a mother. But slowly, it’s all coming back to me... The two years that I was away, it was really the most beautiful years of my life. That quiet time, I really got to enjoy my sense of purpose in being a mom. It’s made me so, so happy. And I want to thank all of you for being happy for me.'

The 37-year-old performer delivered on each song number, belting out hits like Dua Lipa's 'Levitating,' Blackpink's 'How You Like That,' Aegis' 'Halik,' and even BTS' 'Permission to Dance.'

Her special guests were singer Darren Espanto, Fil-Am rapper EZ Mil, Filipino boy band SB19, girl group LITZ, composer/musical director Louie Ocampo, and Mr. Pure Energy Gary Valenciano.
