Practically every Filipino is excited for the new Darna

Google is wrapping up 2019 with its annual list of trending topics in the Philippines, and while the overall top trending topic for 2019 is a surprise (do you even still use Omegle?), the trending local topics are quite on point.

Case in point: for female personalities, Jane de Leon emerged as the top trending female personality, as the young actress was chosen to be the next Darna. For local news, Halalan 2019 was the talk of the town, as this year’s elections was highlighted by new blood politicians beating traditional ones in certain LGUs.

Notable examples are Pasig Mayor Vico Sotto and Manila Mayor Isko Moreno—both of them being on the top 10 most searched local male personalities—where they won against the Eusebios and the Estradas respectively.
