June is an eventful month for many reasons. For high school students, it’s prom season, though they aren’t the only ones getting ready for the big day. With Star Magic Prom returning after a one-year hiatus, several artists and stars will either be returning or making their prom debut, not just as a showcase of the next generation of talent but also as a way for them to have their own prom. And with that comes the return of promposals.
While not a requirement to do so, it is one of the most anticipated moments of the season as people plan a multitude of ways to ask their special someone to go with them, and that also extends to young stars. Most of us, after all, wouldn’t mind living the fantasy of having that special someone or close friend ask us out to prom. From simple flowers to an out-of-town trip, the promposal can take many forms, and not to mention come with a variety of emotions, as these Star Magic Prom 2026 promposals show.

Joaquin Arce and Lella Ford Turn a Day at the Movies Into a Night to Remember
As one of the rising Gen Z duos of the moment, Joaquin Arce and Lella Ford are widely expected to be one of the most anticipated attendees at the Star Magic Prom. Naturally, Arce made the moment even more special with a promposal that is simple yet sweet and sentimental.
Getting Ford’s best friend in on the promposal, Arce planned a surprise by having Ford think that she was just going to watch Obsession with her friends. But what she didn’t know was that there was going to be a special video played before the film, with Arce then surprising her with a thematically-appropriate movie clapper sign and asking her the question. Understandably, Ford said yes, setting the stage for their debut at Star Magic Prom.
Miguel Vergara’s Out-of-Town Surprise for Eliza Borromeo
Long before they were housemates on Pinoy Big Brother, young actors Miguel Vergara and Eliza Borromeo had known each other as friends and co-stars. So, it made sense that Vergara would ask Borromeo out to prom. Enlisting the help of their fellow PBB housemates Rave Victoria, Inigo Jose, Carmelle Collado, and Krystal Mejes, Vergara set the stage to pop the special question at Casa Editha in Bulacan.
While Vergara, Victoria, and Jose were getting the place ready, Borromeo, Collado, and Mejes were traveling to the venue, with the former under the impression that it was for a vacation. Little did she know that once she got there, Vergara was waiting for her with his handmade sign, a bouquet, and a violinist to set the mood. What made the moment even better was that there were Polaroids of the two of them hanging across the room, showcasing their special moments together. It felt like a classic promposal with a few details added to make it personal.
