Limang awards ang hinakot ni Moira dela Torre sa katatapos lang na Star Awards for Music na ginanap sa Newport Theater ng Newport World Resorts, Miyerkules ng gabi sa Pasay City.
‘Yun nga lang, hindi nakarating si Moira sa awards night, dahil sa nasa isang event pa umano ito na ayon sa kanyang handler na si Mac Merla na aking ka-text that moment ay na-move raw nang na-move (ang pagsalang o paglabas ng singer siguro para mag-perform), kaya hindi na sila aabot.
Collaboration of the Year with Ogie Alcasid para sa kanta nilang “Beautiful,” Album of the Year para sa kanyang album na “Patawa” under Star Music, Song of the Year at Music Video of the Year para kantang “Paubaya” na sumikat talaga nang gusto, at Female Recording Artist of the Year para sa nasabing kanta rin ang limang kategoryang napanalunan ng singer-composer.
Ganunpaman, ilang malalaki at beteranong mangaawit at kompositor na ititunuring na mga tunay na haligi ng industriya ng musikang Pilipino ang nakadalo pa rin upang tanggapin ng personal ang kanilang mga parangal, tulad ng power couple na si Asia’s Songbird Regine Velasquez na nanalong Best Female Concert Performer of the Year for Viva Live’s “Unified” (kung saan kasama n’ya sa concert ang Popstar Royalty na si Sarah Geronimo at inalayan n’ya ng award) at ang kabiyak nito na premyadong singer-songwriter na si Ogie Alcasid bilang Best Male Concert Performer of the Year for “Kilabotitos” (by A-Team and Frontrow International na kasama naman n’ya si Ian Veneracion) kung saan ka-tie nito si Daniel Padilla para concert na “Apollo” ng Star Events.
Naging kontrobersyal man nu’ng kasagsagan ng pandemya dahil sa mga salitang nasabi n’ya na kalaunan ay ginawang kanta, nasungkit ni Kim Chiu Ang Novelty Song at Novelty Artist of the Year para sa kantang “Bawal Lumabas” mula sa Star Music.
Hinirang naman na Pilita Corrales Lifetime Achievement awardee ang nagiisang Concert King na si Martin Nieverra na alas-tres pa lang ng hapon ay nasa venue na para mag-rehearse hanggang matapos ang palabas ng 12 midnight at umapila sa mga kasamahan nito sa industriya na bigyang respeto ang members ng entertainment press na bahagi ng kanyang thank-you speech. Ang beteranong composer naman na si Vehnee Saturno ng unang hit song ni Martin na “Be My Lady” ang tinanghal na recepient ng Levi Celerio Lifetime Achievement Award.
Binigyang pagkilala rin ng PMPC si Dingdong Avanzado ng Exemplary Milestone Award in Music para sa kanyang natatanging ambag sa paglago ng OPM sa loob ng 35 years.
Nagsilbing mga host ng gabi ng parangal sina RS Francisco, Tessa Prieto-Valdes, Josh Garcia, at Ciara Sotto.
Ang 13th PMPC Star Awards for Music ay produced by Solid Ink Media Productions headed by Ms. Grace Mendoza, with James Lopez as creative writer, and Noel Maximo as overall director.
