Jukebox Queen Imelda Papin has accepted Dionesia Pacquiao’s call for a musical showdown.

The Pacmom issued the ‘challenge’ at a recent press conference tendered for her.

Triggered by a longing to meet her long-time "idol," Manny Pacquiao's mother asked the scribes present about Imelda's whereabouts.

“Asan na ba [si Imelda]? Matagal na ako sa Manila, hindi  ko pa nakikita...itong idol ko. Nasaan na si Imelda, ano, buhay pa ba?

“Wala naman akong balita kung saan siya. Akala ko wala na siya. Kasi maliit pa ako, idol ko na siya,” she said.

And when told that Imelda is alive and kicking---that she is, in fact, busy doing concerts in Las Vegas, Nevada---Mommmy Dionesia said: “Gusto ko siya makita para (mag-showdown) kami.”

Not about to shirk away from the challenge, Imelda said in a TV interview that she looks forward to holding the showdown.

“Buhay na buhay po ang Imelda Papin, narito ho,” she initially said to assure Mommy Dionesia that she’s very much alive.

She added, “In fact ho, hinihintay ko kayo sa Las Vegas. Matutupad na po ang pangarap ninyo. Matutupad na ‘yong wish ninyo na maka-duet ako. And thank you so much dahil sinabi ninyo na idol ninyo ako.”

In the presscon, Mommy Dionesia showed how much she loves Imelda by singing a few bars of her hit, "Bakit Ikaw Pa."

Apparently, Mommy Dionesia wasn't aware that Imelda recently visited the country to promote her forthcoming concert with Melissa Manchester at the Waterfront Hotel & Casino in Cebu City on Dec. 18 and at the PICC Plenary Hall on Dec. 19.

Imelda also performed at the first Star Awards for Music held at The Skydome SM North EDSA while in Manila.
