Queen of All Media Kris Aquino confirmed her attendance to the Hollywood premiere of "Crazy Rich Asians" on August 7. 

Kris, who plays the role of an Asian princess, shared the news in an Instagram post on Thursday, saying that despite still needing to recover from a severe allergic reaction in Indonesia, the "tigas ulo/bawal sumuko/kakayanin lahat" in her made sure she will be present at the event.

"P.S. The “tigas ulo/bawal sumuko/kakayanin lahat” in me hindi nagpatinag. Nagawan po ng paraan- lilipad kasama ng mga anak, our team, and my doctor to walk the red carpet for the Hollywood premiere of the ground breaking, all Asian cast movie @crazyrichasians from @wbpictures... "
