<p><strong>Anne Curtis-Smith</strong> successfully held her comeback concert titled &#x27;<strong>Luv-ANNE: The Comeback</strong>&#x27; last June 11 in Newport Performing Arts Theater in Resorts World Manila. It&#x27;s her first live performance in almost three years.</p><div><br/></div><p>This event marks Anne&#x27;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&#x27;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&#x27;d come back when things are better. And she did so in her signature &#x27;Anne-kabogable&#x27; fashion: show-stopping, jaw-dropping, and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/Ceq9R57vWrh/" target="_blank">trending</a>!   </p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/cd44d08b-ab97-4c4b-88ed-d1228c32db8b_286994519_384342943666565_596864218681186134_n.jpg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt="Anne Curtis-Smith at her " Luv-ANNE:="" The=""/><span class="fr-inner" style="text-align:left">Anne Curtis-Smith at her &#x27;Luv-ANNE: The Comeback&#x27; concert<span id="isPasted" style="color:rgb(65, 65, 65);letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;display:inline !important;float:none"><em> Photo from @vivaartistsagency  </em></span></span></span></span></div><div><strong>Related Story: </strong><a href="/people/digital-covers/metro-30th-anniversary-cover-anne-curtis/20803" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Metro At 30: Anne Curtis Talks About Growing Up With Metro And Embarking On The Journey Of Motherhood</a></div><div><br/></div><p>True to the concert&#x27;s title, &#x27;Luv-Anne,&#x27; which is a play on the Filipino word &#x27;<em>laban</em>&#x27; (or fight), Anne was truly a &#x27;<em>palaban</em>&#x27; (a fighter) in the event. She rocked each and every outfit, looking beautiful and sexy as ever, and she nailed all her performances. </p><div><br/></div><p>&#x27;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.

Thank you for welcoming me again. It took me a lot <em>talaga</em> to be here tonight <em>kasi</em> 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.&#x27; </p><div><br/></div><p>The 37-year-old performer delivered on each song number, belting out hits like Dua Lipa&#x27;s
