MANILA, Philippines - The Jabbawockeez, winner of 2007's America's Best Dance Crew, is in Manila and will stay in the Philippines 2 months.

A screaming group of girls welcomed the all-male California dance group at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport at around 6 a.m. from Los Angeles.

The group, famous for their mime and kabuki-style dance, will perform with Season 8 winner American Idol Kris Allen and Boyce Avenue in a concert at the McKinley Hills Concert Grounds in Taguig City on February 6.

Before the concert, the America's best dance crew will perform at SM Cebu on the evening of February 5.

Chris Gatdula, one of the 4 Filipino Jabbawockeez, told reporters at the airport that they will be signing a contract with ABS-CBN at 7 p.m. Friday.

Gatdula, whose family hails from Cavite province, said they are also scheduled to perform at ABS-CBN's A.S.A.P on Sunday.

He said they would probably stay in the Philippines for 2 months. He said that aside from the performances and appearances, the group will be doing "a little TV show out here."
